Today is September 29, Gold's birthday and Mei is helping her get ready as Monkey King was taking Gold somewhere for her special day. "Alright, okay that's looks good. Aaaand... Done! What do you think, Goldie?" Mei asked as she just finished Gold's makeup and pulled out a mirror for Gold to see as she gasped in amazement at her look as she's wearing a yellow jamille cutout long sleeve mini dress, a summer hat, white sandal heels along with shimmering gold/red makeup on as well.

"Wow! I love it, Mei-Mei! Thank you!" Gold said happily as she hugged her childhood friend while Mei smiles and replied "Anything for one of my best friends" and then suddenly Lunar came in with a smirk and says "Hey, Gold. Wukong's here. He's at the door" and Gold smiles before Mei gives her a grin and says "You go girl" and this makes both her and Lunar giggle while Gold rolled her eyes and smiled before leaving her room. Soon Gold opened the front door and blushed brightly when she saw Monkey King in his human form as he's wearing a nice outfit for this occasion.

Monkey King also blushed seeing Gold all dressed up beautifully for her special day. "P-Peaches... Wow. Y-You look beautiful" Monkey King bashfully said, making Gold shyly smile and said "Oh yeah. I figured since it's my birthday I thought I could dress up nicely" and then Monkey King smiled fondly while pulling her close to him and said "No matter what you wear... You'll always be the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen in my life" and Gold giggled at this before Monkey King says "Shall we get going then, milady?" and this made Gold blush before wrapping her arms around his arm as he summoned his cloud, picks up Gold and hops on before saying "Hold on tight, peaches" and zooms off into the air. Gold holds Monkey King tightly, making him chuckle before saying "You can open your eyes peaches" and when Gold opened her eyes, she gasped in awe as she stared down at everything.

Monkey King chuckles at this and Gold looks up at him and asks "So... Where are we going, Wukong?" and Monkey King chuckles and says "It's a surprise peaches. But we're almost there".

After a few more minutes, they made it to their destination as Monkey King hopped down and helps Gold down. "Close your eyes, peaches. It'll be a surprise" Monkey King said and Gold closes her eyes and then he starts leading her somewhere.

"Can I open them?"

"No, no. Not yet. Wait here" Gold heard footsteps walking away and also heard him doing something as if he was making something. "Now can I open them?" Gold asked with a smile and her eyes were still closed. "All right. Now" Monkey King said and when Gold opened her eyes, she gasped in awe as she saw that she was in a beautiful meadow with flowers surrounding the area.



"Woah..." Gold was lost for words and then she noticed Monkey King was laying out a blanket and placed a picnic basket down as well. "Wukong... You did this for me?" Gold asked feeling touched and Monkey King smiled, got up, pulled her into a hug and says "Of course I did. It'd be cruel of me to not do something for my peaches' special day" and kissed Gold on the nose, making her giggle.

Timeskip

After having the picnic, Gold and Monkey King both started chatting about random things until Monkey King decided to give Gold her gift as he said "I have something for you Gold" and pulled out something from his pocket and held it out to her while saying "Happy birthday, peaches" and when Gold saw it, she gasped at what it was. It was a clear crystal ball and inside is a beautiful vivisteria flower.



"Is that a..."

"A vivisteria flower, peaches" Monkey King said with a soft smile and Gold gently takes it in her hands as she starts to say "B-But.. W-Where.. How?" and Monkey King smiled and said "Well, a while back I heard your birthday was coming soon and I wanted to give you something extra special. So, I asked Funneh for help and then she said that I should get you a vivisteria flower, your favorite flower. But she also told me that when you guys were younger that you've always wanted to see one at Megapolis Garden Central Station, but you never got the chance to see them since it flooded years ago... And I'm making your wish come true" and Gold looks at him for a moment before looking down with her eyes shadowed and this makes Monkey King panic and starts to say "I-It's okay... If you don't like it then.. I-I'll-!" but then he was caught off guard when Gold gently placed the crystal ball down, tackled him to the ground and immediately pulled him into a passionate kiss.

Monkey King blushed at this sudden action before closing his eyes and kissed her back as he slowly sat up without breaking the kiss. Monkey King wraps one arm around her waist bringing her close to him and the other cupped her right cheek while Gold wrapped her arms around his neck holding him close too. After a couple of seconds, the two separated as they were both flushed and surprised as Monkey King then said in a flustered australian accent "Oh, crikey".

"I can't believe I just did that" Gold said in shock.

"I can't believe I just said that! Oh, crikey. How did I even think that? Come on, Wukong, be cool next time" Monkey King said as he was still very flustered and then he muttered to himself "It was actually... nice though" and then he cleared his throat before saying "I actually have another gift for you peaches" and Gold looks at him and asked "What is it?" and then Monkey King looked away with a soft smile before bringing out a guitar.



"A guitar? For me? But... I don't know how to play" Gold said in surprise/jokingly and Monkey King chuckled before booping her nose and says "No, silly. I thought maybe we could do a little duet together" and then Gold asked curiously "I didn't even know you had a guitar to begin with Wukong" and Monkey King looks at her before looking at the guitar sadly with a fond smile and said "Actually... My Mother gave this to me when I was younger" and knowing who he was talking about, Gold gave a sad smile and said "You mean Lady Irene, right?" and Monkey King nodded with a sad smile and replied "Yeah" and then he pulled out a picture and hands it to her as it was an old photo of Lady Irene smiling softly while she was holding both Monkey King and Macaque in her arms when they were younger, smiling brightly.

"Aww, you and Macaque looked very cute when you were little" Gold cooed, making Monkey King blush a little before giving her a cheeky grin and says "Thank you peaches" and then he started strumming the guitar before he looks at Gold and says "Sing whenever peaches, I'll sing with you too" and Gold smiled at him before she started singing.

Gold:🎶Clock strikes upon the hour🎶

🎶And the sun begins to fade🎶

🎶Still enough time to figure out🎶

🎶How to chase my blues away🎶

Monkey King smiled lovingly at Gold, who is singing so beautifully.

🎶I've done alright up 'til now🎶

🎶It's the light of day that shows me how🎶

🎶And when the night falls, loneliness calls🎶

And then Monkey King joined in singing with her.

Gold and Monkey King:🎶Oh, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶I wanna feel the heat with somebody🎶

🎶Hey, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶With somebody who loves me🎶

🎶Oh, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶I wanna feel the heat with somebody🎶

🎶Ayy, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶With somebody who loves me🎶 (Ayy!)

Monkey King suddenly gets up as he continues strumming the guitar while walking around Gold as she smiles at him while he smiles back at her.

🎶I've been in love and lost my senses🎶

🎶Spinning through the town🎶

🎶Sooner or later, the fever ends🎶

🎶And I wind up feeling down🎶

🎶I've done alright up 'til now🎶

🎶It's the light of day that shows me how🎶

🎶And when the night falls, loneliness calls🎶

Gold then grins as she quickly stood up and starts dancing gracefully as Monkey King saw this.

🎶Oh, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶I wanna feel the heat with somebody🎶

🎶Ayy, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶With somebody who loves me🎶

🎶Oh, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶I wanna feel the heat with somebody🎶

🎶Ayy, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶With somebody who loves me🎶

Monkey King:🎶Who loves me🎶

🎶Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody who loves me🎶

Gold and Monkey King:🎶Who loves me🎶

🎶Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶I wanna dance with somebody🎶 (one, two, three, four!)

Monkey King started dancing along with Gold as they stared at each other with smiles and love in their eyes.

🎶Oh, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶I wanna feel the heat with somebody🎶

🎶Hey, I wanna dance with somebody🎶

🎶With somebody who loves me🎶

After they finished dancing and singing, Gold noticed the now beautiful sunset as she stares at it in awe.



She then looks at Monkey King, who was looking at the sunset with a smile and then he noticed Gold was staring at him. Monkey King lets go of the guitar as the strap holds it on his shoulder and without any words Gold leans forward and kisses Monkey King with both their eyes closed as they intertwine their hands together.



They broke the kiss and pressed their foreheads together and then Monkey King said with love in his voice "I love you Gold" and Gold couldn't help, but smiled back and said "I love you too, Wukong". ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
