Lifting my head slowly from my pillow, I stand up and make my way out of my room into the clearing to see a sleeping Jungkook.

Ah...so pure...

Smiling to myself I sit down in front of the computer and flip through Jungkook's operational manual, I never read the whole thing so I want to catch up on his systems and how they really work.

Scanning all the different algorithms and equations, my eyes lock on one certain date.

The day he was created....was today.....two years ago today...does that mean it's his birthday?

Looking at him sleeping, I spring up out of my chair and dart over to the trash can where the old pieces of glass and metal sit waiting to be taken away.

Jungkook can't eat actual human food so I can't make him a cake, but I can make him a prototype of one he can keep forever...

Setting all the pieces on my work bench, I examine every tool and scratch my head, I've never used tools like these...guess I'll figure them out as I go..

Figuring out the blow torch, was not easy, bandaids lace my fingers as I sear together the pieces of thick shiny glass and metal, shaping all of it into what could be known as a cake.

Clapping my hands together I set the tiny metal cake on my desk and take out multiple pieces of paper, taping them together on a string to make a banner.

I want this to be special to him...a good memory inside of him...even when he has to be a war machine...maybe I can help make his life a little easier...

Using my best artistic abilities, in pretty cursive writing I write "Happy Birthday Jungkookie" on each piece of paper, decprating them with little pieces of confetti and balloon drawings.

•••••

Once I'm finished with the banner, I sneak into his room while making sure to be quiet I tape the banner up on his wall, positioning it to where when he wakes up it'll be the first thing he sees.

Giggling to myself I sneak into my room and look around in my closet, I want to dress up for his special day so I'll actually make myself look somewhat presentable.

Settling for a pretty red velvet dress, I slip it on and zip it up, eyeing myself in the mirror.

The dress hugs about every curve possible as my hair trickles down my back softly, it's grown a considerable amount since I began my journey here in this lab with Jungkook....I think I like it.

Slipping on some small red velvet heels to match, I walk back into the clearing and look around for a gift to wrap him.

You can't have a birthday without a gift, that's just insane.

Looking around I spot myself in the computer screen and look down at my necklace, a small silver circle with my name and birthstone pressed into it.

Taking it off, I smile wide and once again return to the work bench, grabbing the blow torch and hunks of metal, this will be the perfect gift for him, I know it.

Wiping the sweat off my forehead, I place the gift gently into a colorful box that used to hold my paperclips, gluing the paper bow on top I sneak back into his room and place the gift on the table below the banner

He's going to love this....I hope...

Lighting the candles on top of the cake, I press the button for him to wake up and I stand in front of the banner holding the cake waiting for him to open his eyes.

Aish...why am I so nervous all of a sudden?..

My hearts jumps when I see him open his eyes and sit up, his face shifts to confusion and awe as he stands up and looks at me.

"What...what is this?..."

Smiling softly at him, I walk towards him and giggle.

"Well...Today is the day you were made...humans...when we are born...have what's called a birthday. Its a day all about you and you get cake and presents...so...I wanted to give you a birthday party..."

A wide smile plays across his face at my explanation, he's a high operating robot, he probably googled it the minute I said it and has a full understanding.

Clearing my throat, I look straight at him and start singing softly.

"saengil chuka hamnida

saengil chuka hamnida

sarangha neun Jungkookie eh ge

saengil chuka hamnida"

His eyes look like they're sparkling as I look up at him and hold the cake a little higher.

"Blow out the candles..."

He stares straight into my eyes as he blows softly, stuffing out the little flames on the candles, smiling at him I set the cake down and look at him.

"Present time!"

I giggle a little too happily as I grab the little box, my cheeks warm when I notice Jungkook keeps staring at me with that same look...almost like he's looking into my soul...

Walking back up to him I hold up the tiny box and does my best to look up into his intense stare.

"Um...here...this...this is for you.."

My confidence fails me when he stares at me like that...watching him grab the box softly my hearts beats as fast as a hummingbird as I stare nervously.

He pulls the lid off softly and pulls out the thin chain with the small circle attatched to it, I pull my necklace out of my dress and looks at him.

"Um...I have my necklace...my father gave it to me a long time ago...it's really special to me...and anytime I need something calm or comforting...I hold this necklace...so...I made you one as a gift..."

Biting my lip I look down, clearly embarrassed by my cheesiness, but Jungkook hands the necklace to me and smiles wide.

"Um...will you put it on me?..."

Blushing extremely hard, I nod and watch as he turns around and gets on his knees, his back facing me.

Swallowing hard, I undo the clasp and place it gently around his neck, clicking it softly I pat his shoulder and smile.

"There...it's on..."

He stands back up and smiles as he plays with the charm gently, suddenly grabbing my hands gently and looking at me.

"Your hands...they're injured..."

"Ah...it's nothing...making your cake....I had to figure out a blowtorch."

"You should have asked me for help, my hands cannot be injured."

"Jungkook then it wouldn't have been a surprise!"

My giggle confuses him as he runs his fingers over my hands softly, he looks concerned then he brings my hands up to his face and places his lips tenderly on each of the bandaids, making my whole body feel like it's on fire.

"Don't hurt yourself Emily...I..I don't like it..."

Smiling and looking at him, I hold onto his hands softly.

"Don't worry...I'll be careful from now on..."

He smiles tenderly at me and releases my hands, looking around at everything and he leans his face close to mine, eyeing me.

"Thank you for this...I didn't know I had a birthday..."

Smiling at him I place my hand on his cheek and giggle.

"Well...even though you're a robot...you can still have human things Jungkook...I gave you the means to be as close to a human as possible.."

He looks deep into my eyes, searching for something.

"Can...can I...experience...Love?..."

The question catches me off guard and I go silent, swallowing hard I scratch my head and sigh.

"Um...well since I gave you a conciensce...I guess it could be possible for you to feel human emotions such as love, affection, all of that..."

He nods and plays with his fingers as he looks nervous and very uneasy, I look at him softly and smile at his reaction to my answer, he's such a small child sometimes...

Jungkook steps up to me and looks down into my eyes, he towers over me as he puts his hands on my cheeks and blinks.

"E-Emily...I...I um...I think..I may...Love you...Like...Love love....the real kind..."

My heart feels like it's about to jump right out of my chest, he...really loves me? His eyes look so sincere...it's like he really has these feelings...how real was that concience of his...

"You...You...l-love me?..."

He brings his face down to mine and places his lips on mine softly, cradling my face in his hands. My arms go to his waist as I fall into his embrace.

Opening his eyes, Jungkook breaks the kiss and keeps his face extremely close to mine as his voice is almost a whisper.

"Can...can I ask for something...for my birthday?.."

All I can do is nod softly while staring at his face wide eyes, like a deer in the headlights.

"Will....will you dance with me?..."

Blinking I swallow hard and nod, my words are completely gone from his words, they were so sincere....I've never had anyone...or anything say that to me before...

"I love you..."

I'm pulled back to reality as I hear soft music start to play in his room, softly echoing off every wall. His hands softly slide down to my waist while staring into my eyes as I settle mine on his shoulders.

He smiles and starts swaying back and forth softly to the beat of the music, not taking his eyes off of mine for a single second as I can't help but to stare into his as well.

"You look beautiful Emily...I like your dress..."

My cheeks lights up a darker shade of red as I listen to his words, now I know I could never live without Jungkook, not for one second.

He....is my everything...

"Jungkook...can...can I tell you something?..."

He looks at me and nods softly, smiling.

"I...I think....I...I love you too...like...love love you..."

He continues to stare at me, searching my expression with his eyes then a smile plays across his face.

He pulls me closer to him and rubs my waist with his thumb, staring into my eyes his face grows serious.

"Then stay with me forever. Be with me...and look only at me..."

Blinking I swallow hard and nod softly, maybe I could make it to where they can create a new robot....a new model....and let Jungkook stay how he is now...so pure and affectionate...I'm sure I could convince the CEO....I'll even volunteer to make the death machine they want...

I don't want to lose Jungkook...nor do I want to see his eyes turn red like that ever again...

Getting lost in the moment, I stay pressed against Jungkook's warm metal body slowly swaying to the music and dancing the day away, not caring about anything else in the world.

•••••

Pulling the banner down, I fold it up softly and smile as Jungkook pouts.

"You don't have to take it down...I like it.."

"Hmm...well, next year when it's your birthday I'll put it up again, I promise."

The pout leaves his soft lips as he helps me fold it up and after I'm done, he pulls me into a hug and pats my hair tenderly.

"Will you stay in my room tonight?..."

Blushing, I nod softly and smile while returning his hug.

"Sure....let me shower and change then I'll come in here."

He pulls away and keeps his hands on my waist as he pouts.

"You don't have to change...I like this."

Blushing hard I smack his arm playfully and laugh.

"Byuntae! I'm not wearing this to sleep!"

"Then...can you wear it when you wake up?"

He's a typical male. No difference. None.

Scoffing and smiling, I walk out of his room and go into the bathroom while shuttig the door and stepping into the shower, the smile not leaving my face rehashing everything that has happened.

After settling for soft shorts and a bouncy sweater, I walk back into his room and giggle watching him place the metal cake on his bedside table.

Ah...he likes it...that makes me so happy...

"I like this Emily too...not just birthday Emily..."

Blinking I look up to see a smiling Jungkook staring at me, blushing I walk over and hop on his bed while watching him sit beside me and smile.

"Well, this is the Emily you usually get so you better like it."

He smiles and lays down while staying quiet and staring at me, I lay down beside him and place my head on his chest, nuzzling my face softly.

"Goodnight Emily...I love you..."

Feeling my eyes getting heavy, I slowly give in to the soft whirring sound of his heart and smile.

"Goodnight Jungkookie...I love you too..."

"Emily?.."

"Hmm?..."

"Do you really think we'll be together forever?..."

"I don't know Jungkookie...let's sleep for now...alright?"

He goes silent and enters sleep mode but I can't help but to fall asleep thinking the same thing.

Cauld we....really be together forever?...
