Chapter 16: Birthday Presents
Richard's birthday was in two days and I still hadn't gotten him a present yet.
'Some girlfriend I am' I think to myself.
I walk into my psychology class and Donna is already there waiting for me.
"Hey Kori", she says as I sit down.
"Hey", I say and sigh.
Donna frowns, "What's wrong?" she asks.
"I'm a failure of a girlfriend, Richard's birthday is in two days and I still haven't gotten him a present", I say.
"Oh Kori, you're not a failure, besides I'm sure Dick will love anything you give him", she says.
"That's what he told me but I just really want this birthday to be special for him", I say.
"Hmm well do you want to go shopping after class?" she asks.
"Sure! With your help I'm bound to find something", I say and smile.
After class Donna and I get in my car and drive to the mall. We go to the food court to get some lunch then browse around the stores.
"Do you have an idea of what you want to get him?" She asks.
"Something special and meaningful", I say.
"Hmm", Donna says and starts thinking.
A huge smile spreads across my face, "I know what to get him", I say.
Donna and I walk to an electronic store in the mall.
"Hi I'm Tom, how can I help you?" A man name Tom asks.
"Hi tom, do you have any digital picture frames?" I ask.
"Yes we do, follow me please", he says.
He leads us to a table with a bunch of different digital frames in all shapes and sizes are. I start scanning the table. I end up picking a black 10 inch 256MB frame. Tom explains about how to put photos on it, the different video formats and other stuff about it. I decide this will be perfect for Richard since he has so many photos on his desk at work instead of having multiple picture frames he could have just one.
"You think he will like it?" I ask Donna.
"I'm sure he will", Donna says and I smile.
I end up purchasing the frame and Donna and I walk around the mall some more.
"Let's go here!" Donna says.
"Um, you know that's a sex shop right?" I ask.
"Duh I'm not an idiot c'mon Kori It'll be fun", she says.
Donna grabs me by the arm and drags me to the store with wonder girl strength.
"Oooh Ahh", Donna says in awe as she glances around the sex shop.
I glance up once in awhile and avert my eyes quickly, 'Why am I here?' I think to myself.
"Ok we looked around can we go now?" I ask.
"Oh c'mon Kori, don't you want to buy something?" Donna says.
"Uh no", I say.
"Look they have lingerie, you could by something to impress Dick", Donna says and nudges my arm.
I pick up the barely there lingerie off the rack, "I don't know…" I say.
"Besides it is his birthday and you should defiantly embrace your wild side once in a while", she says.
"True, I do want to make his birthday extra special", I say.
"Yay! Let's shop!" Donna yells and I giggle.
We end up wandering around the rest of the shop and pick out a few items. I buy some lingerie, massage oil and a couple of candles.
"How about this?" Donna asks and holds up a blindfold and a pair of handcuffs.
"No way", I say and shake my head.
Donna rolls her eyes and puts it on the items with the rest of my stuff.
"Just trust me", she says and I frown.
After the mall we go back to the university for our next class. I finally feel relaxed knowing I got the perfect present for Richard. 'He's going to looooovvvvveee it' I think to myself. Donna jabs me with her pencil and I focus on the lesson.
After class we go back to the dorm. I go to my room and start packing more of my stuff. Since I moved in with Richard I had packed some of my stuff and moving it into his place when I could. I pack a few more of my clothes and shoes into my two boxes and look around. 'Almost done' I think to myself. I still had a half empty closet with some clothes, shoes, and memorabilia's on a shelf to pack but other than that my dorm was starting to look bare. I pick up my boxes and say goodbye to Donna and go downstairs to the parking lot. I put my boxes in my car and drive to Richard's place.
I arrive at the apartment before Richard and begin unpacking my things. 'Hmm where to hide his presents?' I think to myself. I look around the bedroom and start to think about places to hide his presents. I decide to hide his present in the guest room since Richard rarely goes in there. I also hide the bag from the sex shop in their as well. I go back downstairs to the kitchen to cook dinner for the both of us. I start opening the cabinets of Richard's well stocked kitchen. I get out some ingredients and begin to cook.
After I finish taking the chicken flatbread pizza out of the oven, I hear the door open.
"Hey Richard", I yell from the kitchen.
I hear Richard put his briefcase down and comes over to me, "Hey Kori", he says and kisses my cheek.
"You made dinner?" he asks.
"Yep, I hope you like it", I say and start cutting the pizza. Richard tries to help me but I slap his hand.
"Ow!" he says.
"You cook for me all the time, let me do the work for a change, now get out of the kitchen!" I yell.
Richard raises an eyebrow, "Your really sexy when you're angry", he says and a naughty grin is present on his face and he leans down to kiss me.
I blush and swat his arm playfully, "I said out!" I yell again.
Richard chuckles, "As you wish", he says and goes to the living room.
I giggle and finish cutting the pizza; I get two plates from the cupboard and put a couple of slices of pizza on them. I also grab two sodas from the fridge and go to the living room.
"Dinner is served", I say and set the plates down with some napkins, and I then go back to the kitchen to get the sodas. I put them on some coasters and sit next to Richard.
"This is really good", Richard says and takes another bite.
I smile, "Thank you Richard", I say.
"I may have to tell Bruce to let you make the cake for the party", Richard says.
I look at him confused, "Party, What party?" I ask.
"Bruce is throwing a twenty-first birthday party for me at Wayne Manor he said it will be good publicity and stuff", I say.
"Oh", I frown. 'There goes my birthday plans' I think to myself.
"I really don't want to go but Bruce says I have to show my face", he says.
"Oh ", I say and continue eating my pizza.
"Kori, what's wrong?" Richard asks.
I sigh, "It's just that I was hoping to have you all to myself for your birthday since this is the first birthday we'll celebrate together in four years", I say.
"I see…well we can skip the party", Richard says.
"Richard we can't just miss your own birthday party", I say.
Richard shrugs, "I'm the birthday boy so why not", he says.
"It's rude" I protest.
Richard chuckles, "Fine, how about we leave the party early then?" he asks.
"Ok that's a good idea", I say and smile. I could give him his present and surprise after the party.
"You seem excited", he says.
I smile, "Yes I'm sure you will be this excited when you get your present", I say.
Richard smiles, "I'm sure I will", he says and kisses me.
