From the moment the sun peeked over the horizon, Leo couldn't stop grinning. His own party and his friend's at the same time! He could not wait to catch up with everyone, eat his favorite foods, and dance the night away. It'd be the party to end all parties.

He paced the living room, checking and rechecking the guest list, making sure everything was in its place. Every detail felt magnificent. The food, the music, and the people all promised an evening of pure, unadulterated enjoyment.

He caught his reflection in the mirror, his eyes sparkling with a happiness that bubbled from his core. "Ready," he whispered to himself, a laugh escaping his lips.
