I adjust the simple strand of pearls around my neck, eyeing mysif in the mirror, a small smile curved on my lips. My dress is simple, a plain white strapless that gathers tightly around the bodice, before flowing down to my knees. It makes my glow and my eyes pop. I have flats on, too cowardly to wear her outside, fearful that I might fall or trip and my hair is loose, cascading down my hack. My makeup is subtle, giving me rusy–cheeked look, my eyes sparkling with exciternent. This is the first time I can ever remember in a long time since my mother died, that I’ve celebrated my birthday, and being that it’s my eighteenth, it’s monumental. It’s a special day for me

Xavier’s expression is comical, his mouth dropping wide open, while Xander is more composed, letting out a low whistle as he eyes me up and down, as though I’in something he would like to eat. I blush, as they gather their composure, wide smiles on their faces as they move closer, Xavier putting his hand on my bare shoulder, causing me to shiver, while Xander cups my check, peering into my eyes.

“You look gorgeous Regan” Xander murmurs and then leans in and kisses me swiftly on the lips before I can utter a word, taking me by surprise and causing me to feel butterflies in my stomach.

“Stunning” Xavier agrees huskily, turning my head and kissing me, causing me to blink, my body tingling with delightful sensations as I struggle to hide my growing attraction to them.

The more time I spend with them, the more I start to feel as though I can’t get enough of them which just makes me feel even more confused and lost.

Damnit. I felt as though I was floating on air and I hadn’t even seen the decorations outside yet.

“We got something for you, Xavier says smoothly, digging into the pocket of his black trousers and withdrawing a tiny black box wrapped with a white bow.

Touched, I take hold of it, delicately unwrapping the ribbon and then carefully sliding the box open, my eyes widening as I see…. a key.

I look at both of them and see they are studying the box intently. Giving Xavier the key which he hangs up in the garage for me to grab later, I turn to the box and delicately unwrap the ribbon which is pink this time. I open the box and suck in a breath. A locket. White gold, the locket is shaped like a heart, with purple stones across the outside of it in a swirl–like pattern. I carefully open the locket and see a picture of none other than my mother inside. The dam bursts open and tears begin to flood down toy checks as I hold the locket to my chest, sobbing. They couldn’t have given me a better present if they tried.
