Happy 31st, Chris.

"C?" Chris nudged the sleeping figure beside him, and was rewarded with a growl. "Hey...C!"

JC rolled over and fixed Chris with one bleary eye, the other one hidden under the tangle of curls that fell across his forehead. "Whaddya want?"

Chris grinned, bouncing on the edge of the bed. "It's my birthday."

"Don't care."

"Oh, I really think you do. Look." Chris waved a small box under JC's nose, until JC went cross-eyed with the effort of trying to focus on it and grabbed Chris' hand to keep it steady.

"What's this?" He took the carefully wrapped box from Chris' hand and looked at it, at the bright red ribbon wrapped around it.

"For you. Open it," Chris said, still bouncing. "C'mon. Hurry up."

JC propped himself up on one arm, and started to unwrap the box. "You're weird, Chris. You get presents on your birthday, not give them. Did no one ever explain that to you?"

"This is for me," Chris said, with a grin, as JC pulled the paper off the box, and opened the lid to see what was inside. Two sleek, smooth metal buttplugs. "And for you." He watched JC's face, saw the smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

"Clever," JC murmured as Chris leaned in close to kiss him. "Giving and receiving all in one." He felt Chris' mouth curve into a smile against his lips.

"Yeah, well...y'know," Chris said, fingers warm on JC's face. "Wisdom comes with age."
