His eyes widened when she told him she was going to blindfold him, then - yep. He squeezed his eyes shut then opened them only to find them covered by something soft. Immediately he held out one of his arms. "I can't see a thing," he answered, not turning around in case she had already moved away from him. He tipped his head up to see if he could cheat and look down... but no. He was completely blinded.
"Hold my hand, then," he said, smirking just a bit. You know, for safety precautions. Didn't want to run into a wall, now did we?
Checking to see if Dallin's eyes were visible under the scarf, and nope, they weren't, Ellie grinned. This was going to be absolutely perfect. She hoped. Oh Merlin, she really hoped he liked her surprise. Ellie had spent so much time planning and practicing the- well... He'd find out soon enough.
Ellie smirked at his request.
"Oh, if you insist." She said sarcastically. She was, after all: Ellie, Queen of Sarcasm. Hm.
After pacing in front of the wall several times, a door appeared in front of them and Ellie smiled. Leading Dallin by the hand, she opened the door and led him in. Grinning, she reached behind him when the door shut and took her scarf off of his eyes so he could see what had been created for him.
They were in a brightly lit room, filled with birthday decorations: streamers, balloons, confetti. The room wasn't too big, but it was just the right size for two happy people. There was a shiny, black grand piano in the far left corner of the room. Part two of her surprise. On the right side of the room stood a buffet table covered in cakes, cupcakes, sweets, treats and endless amounts of goodies. There was even a giant fireplace on the opposite wall to keep them nice and cozy warm.
Ellie bit her lip to keep from grinning to hard.
"Do you like it?" She asked some-what nervously.
"I guess I could have invited people. Maybe it would have been more exciting than just a party of two. I mean, we have enough food to feed an army..." Ellie mumbled nervously and rubbed the back of her neck. Did he like it..?
