Charlie exited her bedroom at the same time as Belly whose face immediately lit up.

"Happy sweet sixteen, Lottie!" Belly cheered
"Happy sweet sixteen, Bells" They hugged and walked downstairs together and into the kitchen.

"Morning, everyone" They smiled together
"Happy birthday!" They all smiled

"Hey!" Susannah laughed and walked over to them, she grabbed their hands and smiled "There's our birthday girls, looking like visions in floral. Happy birthday." She hugged each of them.
Jeremiah picked Belly up in a hug "Happy sweet sixteen, Bells" He smiled and turned to Charlie "And happy birthday to you, miss incredible" He smiled and hugged her.

"Thanks, Jere" They laughed together.
"Now Belly Button and Harley are getting old finally" Steven smirked and hugged his sisters "Happy birthday"

"Thanks, everyone" They smiled.
"Happy birthday, my beautiful babies" Laurel hugged them

"Thanks, Mom"
"Your Mickey Mouse pancakes are ready" She smiled at Belly

"Actually, I'm not really, uh, hungry" She declined,
"Oh..."

"And a freshly homemade omelette with fresh smoothie for miss incredible" Jeremiah smiled at Charlie.
"Shall we open gifts?" Susannah suggested

"Yes!" Belly exclaimed excitedly
"Sure" Charlie nodded and they all made their way into the living room,

"Oh, you're gonna love mine!" Jeremiah smiled happily.
"Hey, you okay?" Conrad quickly whispered to Charlie who gave him a little nod and sat down next to Belly.

"It's a first edition. I got it from a rare book dealer" Laurel smiled at Belly,
"Thanks, Mom"

lTurn to the bookmarked page. It's your favorite poem"
"Oh, yeah I remember Susannah teaching us to recite this" She smiled "For whatever we lose...

...like a you or a me...

...It's always ourselves we find in the sea."

The kids recited together and laughed.

"Thank you. I love it"
"You're welcome" Laurel smiled, "Alright, Charlie, your turn"

She nodded and accepted the package. She carefully unwrapped the paper making Steven and Jeremiah laugh,

"Lettie, the paper is getting thrown out. You can just rip it off" Jeremiah chuckled,
"It can be reused" She shrugged and gasped when she saw the book "No way!"

"What is it?" Nick asked,
"Mindhunter! Inside the FBI's Elite Serial Crime Unit. I've been looking for it forever!"

Jeremiah gasped jokingly "There's a book you haven't read?"

In return she simply blew raspberries at him.

"Okay, open mine now, Belly" Susannah smiled and handed her a small box.
