Who: Owen and Jo What: Jo's birthday! Because Crystal told me late! Where: Owen's and Jo's When: Backdated to earlier Rating: TBA Status: Closed
Before Jo got up, Owen was already out and about, baking a cake for her. So, Owen wasn't the greatest cook in the world, but being a doctor meant you knew how to follow instructions, and following instructions lead to a really good chocolate cake.
Owen baked it, frosted it, and decorated it all by himself. If Ellie had been there, he would have had her helping him. The depression of losing the little girl was still hitting him quite hard, and he did care for her, but everyone was right. She belonged with her father, and Owen would do all he could to help himself and Jo get past that.
Setting the cake out on the table, Owen proceeded to actually wrap the gift he'd gotten for Jo a little while back before everything had gone down hill with the demon and Ellie. It was a simple gold necklace with a single diamond in the pendant. It came with a pair of matching earings. Setting the small package down on the table, Owen moved back to the kitchen to start breakfast, trying to push away all of the sorrow he felt without the little girl and her little dog running around the house.
