Hello! I'm alive! Sorry that I haven't updating in a while. I thought I had the next chapter planned out in my head cuz usually I just make things up as I write but I've been having brain farts lately and none of my ideas made sense so... yeah. worst excuse ever but HERE'S YOUR CHAPTER! MERRY CHRISTMAS BTW.

Best birthday ever

"That wasn't so bad right? You know that hair really suits you." Vidia tried to be as cheerful as she can and it was getting out of character. She had to do it for Zarina though, just for today. Her enthusiasm started to fade away when she saw the annoyed look the alchemist had on her face. Earlier today, Vidia decided to let her play with the wind while the others work up a surprise party at Zarina's place. Since Zarina isn't a nature fairy, she screwed up the wind and a little tornado blew right into her and messed up her hair.

Zarina grumbled and wrestled a knot out of her hair and talked the path towards home. The wind fairy glanced at the sun and thought that the others are probably done by now so she let Zarina go home without protesting.

She kinda knew that they were going to throw her a party. I mean if they were really going to play with wind or whatever activity, they would do it all together, but she decided to play along because she didn't really want to ruin their day.

AT ZARINA'S PLACE...

Everything was out of hand.

The vanilla cake was still in the oven; the banner was spelled wrong; Iridessa was hyperventilating and James had fresh red hand marks on his face.

Tinkerbell was about to explode so Fawn had to take over while Tink tried to calm her shit.

"Okay guys! HEY! We're running out of time we need to hurry!" exclaimed Fawn.

Rosetta snorted "No shit. Why don't you get your little animal friends to help us, Snow White?"

"That's a great idea! Why hadn't I think of that before?" Fawn clapped happily.

Everyone fell silent as Fawn opened the window and yelled "ahhhh Ahhhh AHHHHHHH~!" (Think of Giesle from Enchanted) In less than a minute, little animals were either flying through the windows or hoping through the door and it scared the shit out of our other fairy friends. But that's okay because they saved them a lot of time and work.

After the birds hung the new banner saying 'Happy 8th birthday ZARINA!' and the bunnies carried the cake back from the bakery, Fawn shooed them away and told a little birdie to go lookout of Zarina and Vidia.

(After a few moments...)

"They're coming, hide." Said Fawn. Everyone dove behind furniture and tried to make themselves comfortable.

James crouched down behind the couch but winced in pain when his back hit a certain angle. He managed to get onto the floor before Zarina came into the room.

"SURPRISE!"

All the fairies jumped up to greet her. All but one. James couldn't get up because his back hates him. He stayed behind the couch, putting a lot of effort in getting up but to no avail. He heard from behind the couch, the others cheering and talking and Zarina trying really hard to sound happy but it's obvious that she's faking it.

"Wow guys thank you. You didn't have to do all this stuff for me." Zarina said with a forced smile on her face to hide all the sadness within. She felt bad that all her friends are doing so much for her and all she did was sulk. Then again, she really couldn't help it.

Silvermist excitedly exclaimed "LET'S EAT CAKE!"

As Tinkerbell sliced up the vanilla cake and distributed it out for each fairy, James' back finally decided to give him a break and let him stand up. "I want cake too."

Zarina's head quickly turned a 180 degrees when she heard his voice from the back of the couch. She almost dropped her cake, but it was too precious so she didn't drop it, she dropped her fork instead. But who cares. She immediately ran towards him and enveloped him into the biggest hug James has ever received. Of course he hugged her back and planted a kiss onto her forehead.

When they pulled away, Zarina wiped her happy tears off her cheeks and looked at James and gasped "What happened to your face?!"

James tried to look offended. "Wow. After I come back to life that's the first thing you tell me? That there's something wrong with my face? I'm hurt!"

Zarina only giggled and held him closer. The others just looked at them and said "aww" in a really annoying and cheesy way that if I were there I would've strangled them.

After the party and everyone left, James explained the whole resurrection thing to Zarina. He told her if it were any other girl that kissed him, it would never have worked.

'Huh. I guess true love's kiss is real...' Zarina smiled happily as she starred into the pirate's eyes and he did to her's.

They chatted for hours involving topics like 'What happened when I was dead?' 'So the queen knows about my existence now?' 'Do fairies have sex?' something along that line.

The two talked until 2 in the morning and James decided that it's time to go to bed.

"Holy crap its 2am. We should rest." James said with a yawn.

Zarina looked at her clock and and nodded. James was about to climb onto the couch when she stopped him. "Hey."

"What?" he asked tiredly.

"Is your bed still kinda sore?"

"Kinda. Yeah."

Zarina blushed "You... wanna take the bed?"

"The bed's only for one person. Where will you sleep?"

"...the bed?" Zarina was red as a tomato.

James' mouth cracked into a smirk and followed her into the bedroom.

Yay! I'm so happy for them! I'm planning on giving them some hardcore fluff for the next chapter. I'm trying so hard not to make this story dirty. LOL. review!:D
