"I really think so," he answered her with a nod. "It was a really good song, too. And you have a beautiful voice." Not to mention she played the piano so good... GAH. How lucky was he that she wanted to be stuck with him?
Clearing his thoughts, he looked back at her eyes. "Thank you so much. For all of this." The room, the painting, the song... everything. It was just too much... but Dallin wasn't going to complain.
The more Dallin spoke, the more she blushed. He kept complimenting her! But it was
his birthday, Ellie should be making
Dallin feel good about himself, right? Plus, Ellie was awkward when it came to receiving compliments. It was just something she was never good at. Ellie looked down at their hands.
"Thanks." She said, a little embarrassed, though she didn't know why.
But she looked back up when he thanked her again, for everything. Ellie scanned around the room at everything before looking back at him. She smiled.
"You deserve it." And she leaned in and kissed him on the corner of his mouth. He really did. And even if Ellie wasn't biased, she would still believe that.
Well, that was all her surprises for the night.
"Now you get to choose what we do next." She told him with a smile. Now, it was time for Dallin to decide what to do. They could eat cake and ice cream, snack on junk food, cuddle in front of the fire, play hide-and-go-seek. It was up to him.
