[Action-Later that night]
[Helix understood the meaning of leaving Aidan to his own devices all day, with this birthday stuff floating through his head. He can't deny seeing how happy it made the other boy and part of him didn't speak up just because of that. And now, ushered home from a long day on the chain gang, he continued to play ignorant to any of Aidan's obvious planning.
It was best to remain that way, he'd find out sooner or later anyway.
Helix flopped down on the couch with a heavy sigh, laying head back and closing his eyes.]
