Drinks out had been fun, though Rori had made sure not to drink too much seeing as how she'd be going to Ava's after. Not that she was as much into drinking a lot these days. She'd had just enough she hadn't argued too hard with Cody when he said he'd drop her off (though really it was an excellent excuse to spend more time with Ava more than that she'd had anything to drink), and either Ava could drop her off or he could come back for her later. He was a good brother, she thought

"I'm glad you're here." Still holding Rori's hand, Ava let her close the door, then immediately leaned up for a kiss, her heart beating a little faster as usual as she leaned into it. It was always at least a few days between getting to do that. "And that you feel like celebrating." It wasn't that she had anything elaborate planned --some people weren't even into birthdays, so she didn't want to overdo it, and they tended to do things low-key when they were together. At least when they were here. Still, she was excited

Rori leaned in and kissed her back firmly. She'd been wanting that kiss all night. A birthday wasn't a birthday without a kiss from her girlfriend. They didn't get nearly enough time together, though that wasn't anyone's fault, really. They both had work they had to deal with, and the closer it got to Canon's foaling, the more times she slept at the barn. "You know you didn't have to do anything for today though." Though it was nice, coming from Ava. It didn't make her feel as old. "It's been pretty good. Feelin' like an old woman now, though," she half-joked. "Nah, I could nibble, but nothing huge right now. Maybe later." Not after drinking even a couple of drinks. She leaned comfortably against the counter, watching Ava contentedly. "Don't be sorry, you're fine. Missed you."

"Of course I did." Ava grinned and waved that off. "Wish we could've taken the whole day but life is annoying like that." At least they were together right now, though. Since she was spending more time out in the field she couldn't always tell when she'd be called away, so she was grateful for all of her spare time.

"Okay, later if you want, I've got the makings for some quick things. And yeah, 29's soooo old," Ava teased, though she hoped Rori wasn't seriously worried about it. She shifted closer to Rori at the counter. "It's really nothing, anyway. You've done so much in a pretty short time, and there's so much time to do everything else you want to do. Plus, you know, you're super-hot. Trust me, I know."

She flushed under Rori's gaze. "I always miss you," she said quietly, and dabbed a bit of frosting off her spreader, offering it to Rori on her finger. "You're going to love this cake," she said matter of factly.
