Well, can I just say thank you for the 2 reviews they were lovely, glad I wasn't the only one to know Daffy's B-day I just love that Duck, anyway here is the next chapter, enjoy and tell me what you think.

Today's the day

When Daffy got home the first thing he did was lock the door of his small house and collapsed into bed. When Daffy next awoke it was to a blinding headache, getting up the duck walked to the bathroom, letting out a sigh of relief finding that there was no evidence of swelling to his eye and that his black feathers as usual covered up any bruises. Yawning Daffy entered the kitchen to make himself a coffee stopping by the door to see if he had received any birthday cards.

"Bill, bill, bill, junk, bill.... sigh..... No cardsth asth usual," Daffy said to himself, "Oh, why am I stho disthappointed, it'sth not like I expected anyone to remember my birthday today anyway, after all these yearsth, what makesth thisth year any different," he said to himself as he finished his coffee.

Looking towards the clock, Daffy decided that he would walk to work today rather then fly since he had time. Turning to lock the door behind him Daffy set off to work. Daffy walked through the park, smiling as he watched children playing, every now and then he was asked to sign an autograph which he gladly obliged. As he was about to exit the park he stopped when the sound of crying reached him, looking around he saw that it was a little cat who had fallen over, he smiled as he saw two friends (one being a fox while the other being a duck) surrounded him and tried to cheer him up, he estimated them to be around 8 or 9, looking around to see if he could find any of the children's parents, he sighed seeing none and looked to the clock, "30 minuets, plenty of time," he thought to himself as he walked over to where the other children where trying to help their fallen friend.

"Hey kid, you ok?" Daffy asked, as he approached the group, he mentally smiled as he saw their faces, "Oh yeah, star struck," bending down he helped the cat that had fallen over sit up.

"Oh that looksth nasthy," Daffy said as he noticed the scrapes the kid had.

"Sniff, sniff...... it hurts," cried the cat, Daffy frowned and looked to the floor.

"That'sth a bad pavement, you hurt the little girl," Daffy said as he tapped the floor, earning a small smile from the girl.

"I know, how about we get you washed up and then you can go and play tag," said Daffy as all the children smiled, he smirked as an idea formed in his head and in one swift motion he picked up all of the children, holding two under his wings and the 3rd on his back as he made his way to the drinking fountain smiling as he heard them laugh.

Placing them down Daffy then wiped away the blood from the kids graze.

"Stho what do they call you, pray tell?" Daffy asked putting on the act for the kids.

"I'm Miranda," said the cat.

"I'm Ben," said the fox.

"And I'm Suzy, are you really Daffy Duck?" the duck asked in excitement, Daffy smiled and nodded.

"The one and only," he said, mentally cheering at their excitement.

"Wow, can you play tag with us Daffy, please please please?" asked Miranda, her leg was feeling much better now, while the other two nodded eagerly, Daffy stood up placing his wing on Ben's shoulder while the other went to his beak in mock thinking, smirking he then shouted.

"IT!!" and ran with the others not too far behind. After twenty minuets their parents turned up to collect them, after meeting and thanking Daffy of course, who was just happy that his birthday got off to a good start, even if no one remembered. Looking to the time he saw that he only had ten minuets left to get to work, hailing a taxi he made it with 2 minuets to spare which he spent making himself presentable.

Daffy walked into the employee lounge, he wasn't surprised when he saw Sylvester, head down sunglasses on, with a mug of coffee sitting in front of him.

"Argh, I am really p-p-paying for lasth night," said Sylvester as he noticed Daffy's appearance in the room.

"I'm not sthurprised, though you should feel better off then the othersth, you passed out 2 hours before they finished," Daffy said as he walked over to the coffee machine to grab a cup. "And may I sthay that you are quite heavy," said Daffy taking a seat, at Sylvester's confused look Daffy continued "How do you think you got to bed lasth night?" he asked taking a sip of his coffee.

Before Sylvester could reply the director came in.

"Ah Daffy! Just the duck I want to see, now unfortunately Lola has called in sick for Bugs, which means that we can't finish filming, however I have been given a new script for your other short if you would like to work on that for today instead," Daffy looked at the director and nodded, he figured Bugs wouldn't be in today.

Daffy sighed as he entered the employee lounge, he was annoyed because when he had finished filming his short, Bugs had turned up, giving Daffy more work to do. Daffy sat down on the settee with a plop.

"What's up Doc?" Bugs asked sitting down next to him. "Listen Daff, I just wanted to say thanks for last noight, and also sorry for the anvil thing," he said turning to look at Daffy. Daffy nodded at his friend.

"Think nothing of it pal, you'll just owe me one," Daffy said as Bugs rolled his eyes.

"Anyway, I'm having a BBQ this weekend to start off the two weeks vacation we got, think you can make it?" Bugs asked Daffy as he offered the duck a drink.

"Sorry Bugsth no can do, I'm going on vacation," Daffy replied before he covered his beak with his wings.

"Vacation, great idea Daff, I'll tell the others," said Bugs leaving before Daffy could protest.

Daffy finished his drink that Bugs had given him, before standing up to leave on his journey to the orphanage, he stopped as he saw Granny enter the lounge.

"Hey Granny, didn't know you were working today," said Daffy in greeting.

"Yes, well neither did I until I got a call from Sylvester, I must say he really is suffering from a hang over, I take it you had a good time last night, was it for your birthday?" Granny asked, Daffy stared at her in shock, "Wow, someone remembered," he thought before replying.

"Nah, they forgot it as usual, though I must ask, how did you know?" Daffy asked her. Granny frowned.

"My dear, you act as if no ones ever remembered your birthday," Granny said, at Daffy's sad look she continued, "Oh..... well I remember you mentioning it once in an interview," she said answering Daffy's question, thinking back Granny was surprised that indeed she can't remember Daffy ever having a birthday celebration, she felt ashamed of herself in that moment, the Looney Tunes were a family and not one of them had ever remembered Daffy's birthday.

"Don't worry about it Granny," Daffy said noticing her frown, "I'm usthed to it, anyway I got to get to the orphanage, oh and I would appreciate it if you kept my birthday to yoursthelf," Daffy said, unlike the other toons, Granny knew about Daffy's charity work as well as his parents demise, but that was all she knew.

"If that is what you want dear, oh and I got you a present here," she replied giving Daffy a wrapped up present.

"Wow, thank you Granny," said Daffy taking the gift.

"Go ahead dear, open it," Daffy nodded and opened it, he smiled as he pulled out two signed photographs of all the Looney Toons, sighed by the whole cast including him. "I thought that you could give the other one to the orphanage," Granny said.

"Yesth, Granny I love it, they will be so happy thank you," Daffy said as he pulled the elderly women into a hug, one which she gladly returned.

"Well I am just sorry that we have neglected your birthday, could you ever forgive me?" she asked him.

"Don't worry about it Granny, if I was that bothered by it I wouldn't consider you lot family," he replied with a smile.

"Yes, well some family," she said bitterly. Daffy just chuckled and pulled the women into a hug before departing for the orphanage.

Daffy opened the door to the orphanage, hoping to sneak in, as soon as he got to the hall, he was pounced on.

"DAFFY!!!" screams of joy echoed around the room.

"Alright, alright enough it's great to see you too," Daffy said trying to pull off all of the children on him.

"Happy birthday Daffy, we got you something," said Lex a small yellow duck, as she pulled Daffy to the centre of the room where a small table stood.

"Oh guysth, you shouldn't have," said Daffy as Cosmo a small white duck took his other wing as she too began pulling him to the table.

Daffy smiled as they pulled off the sheet, revealing a poorly made cake with the words, Happy birthday Daffy in icing, and a box, gingerly he opened the box and pulled out a photo of the group which was set in a beautiful silver frame.

"Oh guysth, thank you," Daffy said giving them each a hug.

"We made the cake, and bought you this picture so that you won't forget us when you go on vacation," a small chipmunk said.

"Thank you, Danny, the cake looksth great, and the picture looksth fantasthic, and don't worry, I could never forget you guysths," said Daffy as he walked over to the juke box. "Now who'sth up for a dance?" Daffy said putting on some music.
