I know, I'm not a little kid anymore
WHO: Sakura Kinomoto, OPEN
WHERE: Fai's house! Since she lives with him now.
WHEN: April 1st, early afternoon
WHAT: Sakura's friends are invited to a party for her birthday.
WARNINGS: None?
[Maybe some arrived earlier, to help get the food ready or set up any decorations. Most of it is ready, though some preparation might be more last minute in that morning once she has opened presents from her family - after dealing with an initial prank from her brother, given the date and all.
She hadn't anticipated anything too huge or fancy. Though that might end up debatable given how Fai tends to spoil her at the best of times. Still, the house should hopefully be big enough. She hopes. Sakura fusses a little with her dress, her hair, before coming to try offer to help with any last minute decorations or anything. Once people do start arriving, everyone is free to mingle and enjoy the food and drinks (non-alcoholic).
Sakura tries to get around to say hi to everyone, sometimes but not always managing to be the one to answer the door. She seems to be enjoying herself, glad of the chance to catch up with everyone in person, even if some might not stay all day. And given the weekend, given the holidays, she isn't so worried on staying up late either. She joins in with mingling, and might be easier to corner and get some one on one time later in the afternoon/evening, once others might have already gone home.
She doesn't have a traditional cake, but a number of cupcakes for everyone instead, with those and the rest of the snacks provided being made by Fai. With Xiaolang's help, and maybe Sakura managing to somewhere in the process of making it all.]

And he was really grateful for it. Even if he was still getting used to it sometimes. It just wasn't something he was used to yet, even if he really enjoyed having people that were so close to him all the time. Because there was something comforting about that.

Well I'm glad you found one mate. Having a family creates a sense of... belonging that you can't find anywhere else.

"It's been good for the others too. I can tell it really makes Fai happy."
It was just sort of reflex to guide the conversation off himself and to someone else really. Mostly to dodge that he was probably feeling a little flustered.

[There's the date with Lillian and the game with James. Then there are the times he just goes to play paintball with random people. A guys gonna need to restock eventually.]
no subject
[It's logical so like hell if he's going to complain about that.]
You got some games planned with people?
no subject
no subject
[Because business is business you know?]
no subject
[Derek will always be loyal to your shop Iwai!]
no subject
[Not that he's complaining mind you...]

And I'm on the short list I suppose? I feel so blessed.

So does Fai ever go paint balling with you?
no subject
[He...doesn't get out much.]
no subject
[In Derek's mind, having common interests is important in a relationship. If Fai doesn't like paintball, then what does he like that Iwai also likes?]
no subject
[Far as he can tell Fai's not bothered by the lack of dates so he figures he's doing something right.]
no subject
So more of relaxing dates? I guess I can appreciate that. I did those sorts of things too with my ex. I kind of miss doing those things with someone.
[Not that he wouldn't try to do those types of things with Lillian, but he's only been on one date with her and she seems to like more outdoors moving around types of activities.]
no subject
[And honestly he just likes seeing Fai smile so doing the little things for him is where it's at for Iwai.]
no subject
[Derek is almost staring off into the distance, wondering if he will ever be that lucky to find a girl like that.]
no subject
[Sorry, Derek. No way is he going to let anyone think Fai is easy to please.]
