Summary: "Hey Bobby, lighten up, it's the guy's birthday."


Alex watched with some amusement as her partner attempted to concentrate. Over to the far left of the room, around another detective's desk, stood a group of people, all greeting him cheerfully, singing, and wishing him a happy birthday.

"Hey Bobby, lighten up, it's the guy's birthday." She commented, offering her partner a smile.
"A loud birthday." He mumbled, trying to read the paper he held in his hands.
"Oh it's not that bad." Eames countered, laughing as her partner actually whined and dropped his head to the desk. "Seriously Goren, it's just a little louder than usual..." She trailed off, observing her partner.

Finally, she realized something, a grin passing across her lips.
"You got smashed last night!" She declared.
"Blame Logan." Came his miserable reply as he covered his head with his arms.
