[align=center][div style="width: 430px; text-align: justify; font-family: calibri; font-size: 8pt; color: black; line-height: 22px;"]☁  hayley hadn't been anything like eloise at fourteen. the girl was shy and timid, a teenager and yet so unmistakbly innocent and child like. when she'd been fourteen, she'd already been able to hold her alcohol and regularly made out with boys who's names she could even be bothered to know. she'd acted like you might expect a girl her age to act, and perhaps in another life she would have been in high school at that age, sneaking into senior parties and schemeing to get an invitation to the junior prom. but, she'd been born into an entirely different life, one where, by the time she'd turned fourteen, she knew how to disarm most grown men, and how to swing to break a nose. by the time she'd been fourteen, she'd already raised herself, and she acted as her own guardian.

of course, hayley was half relieved that eloise was a seemingly mild young girl, because truth be told, hayley wasn't sure if she could even stand to be in the same room as her fourteen year old self. tough and flirtatious as she'd been, she'd also been stubborn and possessed a confidence she hadn't earned in her brief time alive. she was only twenty-three, but she was a hell of a lot more mature than she'd been. mature enough to lead a group and raise a child and get married. but today wasn't about how intolerable she'd been at eloise's age. and, as much as she was tempted for it to be, it wasn't about valentines day (though jackson had spent the entire morning trying to convince her not to get out of bed, and damn she'd been tempted). no, it was, at least for the few hours before they had to saunter on over to the badlands for some party, about eloise, and the day that only came once a year for her. though her own birthday was on an insignificant date (in three days, in fact), hope shared a birthday with the christmas holiday, and hayley was determined for hope to still have a special birthday despite the holiday, and she intended for the exact same for eloise.

she caught word that the girl had emerged from her room and hayley, who'd been up all night in the kitchen trying to figure out how to make a cake, quickly darted out of the kitchen, panting by the time she approached the teenager. ❝happy birthday,❞ she told the girl with a smile, wiping her flour covered hands on her pants, leaving white handprints on the black fabric, and motioning over her shoulder, ❝i, uh, attempted to make a cake with what little flour i've got left. there's a valentines party over in the badlands tonight, so we can't really do cake tonight, but cake for breakfast every now and then isn't that bad for you.❞ she said with a small smile. however, she quickly reminded herself that eloise didn't seem like someone who really bathed in attention, so she cleared her throat. ❝we don't have to, like, sing or anything if it'll make you uncomfortable. but you have to have a slice with everyone.❞
