A/n: I am so very sorry this wasn't posted sooner, I just hope it was worth the wait. ❤

Pastel ribbons and light balloons danced around you, just the saccharine scent of cake lingered within your nostrils.
To most others, the mere notion of the merriment of your surroundings would elevate their heart rate and spin their head with excitement.
You were sure you would be amongst them as well, if it wasn't for the trance the male before you had placed you under.
Even in the midst of the expensive perfumes and meticulously designed shoes each of the boys had so generously showered you within- he was all you could think of.
It was all your heart could bear, just grazing his fingers as he offered you a forkful of his own cake after you had both snuffed out the candles.
Even as the melodious voices surrounded you to wish both you and Hoseok simply the best of wishes for your new ages; your heart fluttered only at the decreasing proximity of your birthday partner.
For so long, you shared each birthday with his beaming smile. The sight alone enveloped you within it's warmth that burned brighter than the very candles placed upon the frosting of your cake- which was halved between your most beloved flavours, just as it always had been.
And that was the only issue you grieved over.
Year after year passed you by, and your relationship remained the same. Your heart still beat its same fluttery drum at his same smile; and you silenced the same feelings for your friend.
You dreamed the same reveries of kissing him at last just as you had returned to the same fantasy of meeting his lips over your dainty cake.
You pondered a taste of the frosting from his tongue and wondered if he made the nibble sweeter just as he had done with your life.
"What did you wish for (Y/n)?" The voice you adored so much trickled over your ears to send a pleasurable shiver down your flesh.
Your eyes rose above the delicate trails of decorations to find his head had fallen to the side and your heart nearly stilled at how adorably he resembled a mere puppy whom had followed you home.
You wished so desperately to confess right then with a simple, breathless, You. But the burdensome fears of rejection hushed you harshly.
"The same as last year- or pretty much every year before."
You feigned a sweet smile to conceal the throbbing ache of your heart that simply grew heavier with the shine of curiosity he obtained for the childish act.
His brows then raised at your dedication to the very same wish that had followed you into adulthood and his lips bowed to reveal the smile which had rendered you sleepless many nights.
"It must be something you truly want with all of your being." He acknowledged, praying you hadn't noticed just how easily you had intrigued him or how his smile fell at the fear of you wishing for a love he couldn't give as your best friend.
You forced a soft huff of amusement through your nostrils and your finger languidly traced along the discarded bow that had once hugged your present.
"You have no idea, Sunshine."
He visibly shuttered in content at the sound of the pet name you attached to him since your lives had first intertwined; never did it quite have the same effect on him when it was called by any other than you.
Yet, even as he lavished every moment of your interactions. Your teasings had rose his excitement, until he just had to know of your heart's desire.
"Tell me." He suddenly demanded whilst he released the string around his finger, to allow the blushing balloon he held to take to the air.
The breath from your lungs dissipated as his dark eyes flickered to yours. Your heart pounded at the notion of revealing your deepest secret.
"W-what?"
Your lips gaped whilst your body trembled when he inched just a little closer and his fingers bashfully met the tips of your own.
"Tell me what you wish for the most." He repeated his words, only this time, an innocent pleading laced his voice- like a small child begging for just another bite of dessert. "I promise not to tell."
Your stomach flipped at just how cute your love could be, with glistening puppy eyes and an irresistible pout daintily placed upon his mouth. It was almost impossible to deny him.
Your undeniable love for him rushed over the insecure whispers of rejection like an ocean's waves until the words bubbled from your throat.
"I wished for you, Hoseok."
You winced at your confession once it had strung between you both- never to be taken back.
With an aching chest, you could only think of how dreadful it would be to remember your birthdays each year with the sting of unrequited love to accompany you.
But as your eyes fell from his, not one scoff or word of disgust fell upon your ears- it was simply silent.
An apology edged the tip of your tongue but was quickly silenced by a slender finger gently pushing your chin forward, to lock your eyes together.
A bright smile pulled at his lips as he beamed before you, and your heart melted as if you were simply the earth admiring the sun your life so crucially revolved around.
"I wished for your kiss."
His soft laughter chimed within your ears like a beautiful symphony to drown the world around you in your infatuation for him.
Your every thought fell upon him until he was all you could fathom and the words escaped once more.
"Then I suppose I have one last gift to give the birthday boy."
Your whisper drew your bodies closer until your lips met. The taste of strawberry frosting bursted over your taste buds with every flick of his tongue.
And you were delighted to find he truly did make the treat even sweeter as he devoured your lips.
But once the sweet kiss melted away, he pressed his lips against your ticklish skin and elicited your joyous giggles.
"Hobi? What are you doing?" You grinned up at his innocent expression.
His teeth tenderly nipped the lobe of your ear and he tugged you flush against his chest.
"I'm giving you a kiss for every birthday I missed your lips." He simply replied before he attacked your jaw in a series of kisses you couldn't help but bask within.
In the arms of your greatest gift of all, your heart was content with your wish that had come true at last.
