Happy Birthday, Miss Logan! (After the return from Providence)
Joey's been working on this idea of his for several months, since he managed to get someone to tell him Rose's birthday. The plan has changed several times over the last couple of months, but when Joey finally decided exactly what to do for her birthday, he'd gone all in with the plot.

Of course, Providence had thrown things for a bit of a loop. A little bit after they've finished talking to Doctor McCoy, Joey goes searching for Cassidy. He's acutely aware of how much more difficult life is when one can't see ten feet in front of oneself, and it takes a little extra asking around to figure out where the kid is currently.

He walks up slowly toward Cassidy's chair, tapping the walking stick against it as he tries his best not to look utterly pitiful.

"Hey, kid. You, uh, take care of that task?" Joey asks.

"Yeah, I did. But I want something in return." Cassidy says. "And I kind of need it today."

"Depends on what you're looking for." Joey says.

Cassidy tells him; Joey laughs out loud.

"That...shouldn't be hard. I'll call my guy, but you gotta meet him at the front gate." Joey says.

"No problem." Cassidy grins.

-----

A little bit later, someone will find Rose and hand her a peach colored envelope with her name written on front in Joey's handwriting. If she opens it, she'll find a birthday card inside.

Not sure how they do this where you're from, but let's play a game. Follow your nose.

Love,
Joey

	"Little to yer left, Bub," Rose told her, taking his hand in hers, and putting in on the box. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Joey bites down the stab of frustration that wells up in him at Rose's assistance. He's not mad at her, but the situation. "Thanks, Babe." he grins, then hands her the box. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No problem, Bub." Rose gave the box a curious look for a second, before opening it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Inside, she'll find a ring and a small chain to wear it on. "A promise ring. I promise I won't ever give up on you, Rose Logan. I promise that I'll always have your back. And I promise that I won't call you out too much when you snore." he grins. "A token of my appreciation, if you will." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh... oh, Bub..." Rose said, quietly. "This is... this is the nicest thing anybody's ever got me before." She reached over, to pull him close to her, to kiss him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He returns the kiss, glad to her the approval in her voice. "Don't wory, I'll find a way to top this next year." he says. Because he was going to be around next year, and the year after that, as long as she let him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She smirked, poking him affectionately in the chest with a finger. "I'm gonna hold you ta that, Bub. In-between holdin' you, that is." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You make me wanna skip the cake, Babe." Joey grins. "Happy birthday, beautiful. I'm glad you're here with me." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She smiled. "Wouldn't miss it for the world, Bub." Maybe, sometimes, life was pretty good after all. (Reply to this)(Parent)
