You grabbed your phone, ready to call for help. The light screen unveiled the picture of Stephen and you smiling at the camera after you had forced him to take a picture with you. You had later discovered that he loved to pose, so you liked to take picture of him, discreetly. However, now you knew Stephen's birthday was coming and even if you knew him for months, you had no idea to what give him. So you did the only logical thing, you called Christine to ask for advice. She knew him for years, so maybe she could help you to find the perfect gift for your crush. You dialed the number and waited. Beep, beep, beep. Someone picked up and you said before she said something:

" Hey ,Christine! It's Y/N. Look I need your help. It's Stephen's birthday in a week and I have no idea what to give him. You know I love him, do you think it would be a great idea if I confess at the same time? Or what if he doesn't feel the same? Oh God! What do I do, Christine? Should I buy a medicine book ? Or is it too much painful for him? "

You paused a moment, frowning. There wasn't any answer and you wondered why.

" Christine? You're there?''

A deep voice which sent shivers roll down your spine answered you back.

" Hello to you too, Y/N. "

You looked at your phone again, watching the ID naming Christine. You said, baffled and blushing like a red tomato.

" I thought I was calling Christine and my phone dialed her number. "

" Well, I'm not Christine. Did you do something to Wong lately?"

Then something clicked in your mind. You had played a prank at the Asian Magician, using a samurai mask on your face, opening a portal and scaring him in the library. The whole temple had heard the girly scream echoed in its walls and you had quickly closed the portal. However, you had been caught because he knew it was you.

You sighed heavily.

" I might have scared him and he changed all my phone numbers as payback."

" You scared Wong? " he asked, surprised, " How did you do it?"

You raised your eyebrow, sitting on your bed.

" Don't get yourself in trouble, Stephen."

" Come on Y/N, you know me. "

" Unfortunately, I do.''

" And you love me."

His words fell down like an ax, like a freezing wave wrapping my body. You were awestruck. You closed your eyes shut, biting your lip until a streak of blood invaded your mouth, and your hand turned into a fist. You were afraid and lost. You struggled with your words trying to find a way out.

" I'm sorry I have disturbed you, Stephen. Wrong number.

" Do you?" he insisted, and you imagined him tilted his head to the side, a little smirk playing on his lips.

You clicked on the red phone and hung up. You sighed heavily and fell on the bed, slightly bouncing. You took a fetal position, closing your eyes, and listening to your breathing. Your mind was boiling, countless thoughts running through it like furious waves. Finding a gift for Stephen was now your last priority. It was rather, what the hell were you going to do the next time you'll see him? Was he going to laugh at you because of his huge ego? Will it change your relationship with him?

You sighed again and tightened your grip on your knees. You didn't know what to do now. But, you had to do something. Stay here, lamenting on yourself would not help or change anything. You force yourself to get up. You pushed away the strands falling in front of your face and took a deep breath. You got up and reached the door. The moment you opened it, Stephen stepped out of his portal, definitely trying to see you." You have to be kidding me"" you thought, your voice caught in your throat. He swiftly closed the portal and your eyes met. Locked in his cerulean blue eyes, you froze while he slowly approached you. Without any word being said, his muscular arms were wrapped around your frail figure, pushing you against his strong torso. His hands stroke your hair in an attempt to calm you down, to comfort you. Your whole body tensed at his gesture and for a few seconds, you didn't know how to react. So you asked him:

" Stephen?"

"Hum?', he said, smelling your hair. You could feel his beard scratching your scalp and warm shivers rolled down your spine.

" Let me go, please. I don't want your pity."

On the contrary, he held you tighter and you struggled a bit.

" Stephen" you warned him, your deep tone echoing in the silence of the moment.

" I won"t ever let you go Y/N, my love."

You stood motionless, unable to move a single eyelash.

" Wha...what did you say?" you babbled, shock written all over your face.

He cleared his voice and explained:

" Your love as a birthday's gift is the most precious thing I'll ever have, Y/N. My Y/N."

You stopped struggling and snaked your arms around his shoulders, bringing him closer to you. You buried your nose in his neck and hummed in delight. Then Stephen announced, laughing;

" It's funny to think that Wong' prank actually set us up, don't you think?"

You giggled a bit and enjoyed his warmth. Your heart was so much lighter and your future brightened at the thought that your love was reciprocated.

" Well, I still have to figure out who is who in my phone contacts."

He took one of your hand, lacing his fingers with yours and said softly, his voice full of strong emotions:

" I'll help you."

A/N: Tadaa! Any thoughts?
