📍Saturday,,April,26th
📍One days later

The next day, Benji woke up to the sound of his favorite song playing through the apartment's speakers, a custom-made playlist that Joseph had created just for him. He stumbled into the living room, his eyes bleary with sleep, to find Joseph standing there with a mischievous grin, holding a tray laden with breakfast in bed. "Happy Birthday," Joseph sang, his voice off-key but filled with love.

On the tray sat a perfectly cooked omelet with all of Benji's favorite toppings, a steaming cup of coffee, and a small, neatly wrapped box. Benji's eyes widened with surprise as Joseph placed the tray on the coffee table and handed him the box. "What is this?" he asked, his voice a mix of excitement and confusion.

"Open it," Joseph said, his smile growing wider by the second.

Benji's heart raced as he carefully unwrapped the box, revealing a shiny new set of keys. "What's this?"

"Your birthday gift," Joseph said, his voice filled with pride. "I knew you've had your eye on that Mustang at the dealership."

Benji's eyes grew wide with disbelief. "You didn't," he whispered, his hand trembling as he took the keys.

"I did," Joseph said, his voice filled with excitement. "It's yours, baby. Happy Birthday."

The party was in full swing by the time the sun had fully set. The rooftop venue was alive with the laughter of their friends, the twinkling lights casting a warm glow on the faces of everyone Benji held dear. The cake was a masterpiece, a tattoo machine made entirely of sugar and fondant, a perfect replica of the one Benji used at the shop. His eyes lit up when he saw it, his mouth dropping open in amazement.

"You really went all out," Benji whispered, his voice filled with awe. "I can't believe this."

"You deserve it," Joseph murmured, his eyes never leaving Benji's face. "You're the most important person in my life, babyboy. This is just a small token of my love."
