When we arrived at Della's house,
The place was crowded with people!

Of course,
This made Cherry nervous and uncomfortable. "I I don't like it here...." He mumbles from inside my pocket,
I smiled gently.
"Don't worry.
Cherry, we'll only be here for a little while and I'm bound Della will absolutely love you" Cherry looks at me with the red-eye lights from his dark eye sockets.

"P promise?" He asks in such a quiet voice,
It made my heart melt!
"Of course,
I promise" I replied, pushing through the crowd of noisy and chatty people in search for the red-haired birthday girl and soon enough,
I found her in the kitchen with a couple of other girls.

"Maria, honey!
It's so good to see that you have arrived!" Della greeted with the biggest grin on her porcelain-like face as she made her way over about to give me a hug but, I calmly stopped her before pointing to my pocket.
"I've got a little guest with me" was all I said. Gently lifting Cherry from the pocket and showing him to Della who squealed like a fangirl!

"Oh. My. Gosh! He is so cute, how did you get him?" She asks as she gently pets Cherry on the head making him blush a deep shade of red.
Red laughed as Sleepy was asleep in my other pocket.
As a response,
Cherry glares at Red before turning to Della.
"Happy birthday, Della," I said with a grin.
"Oh, thank you so much.
I absolutely love him, don't worry I'll take good care of you!
Now you guys go have fun and enjoy the party" I chuckled as I nodded my head.
"Whatever you say, birthday girl"

And with that,
I went to go mingle with the rest of the crowd. Cherry still on my mind.
