[While Makoto wasn't exactly super surprised at the smell of dinner and cake in the house, it was his birthday, after all, he was a little curious at why JJ was acting different than his usual excitable energy. He was still energetic and excitable, don't get him wrong, but he could tell there was something else behind it. He wasn't sure what. But he figured JJ would tell him eventually.
Besides, if he knew part of it was JJ being unsure if this was too much, he would have told him from the get-go that it wasn't. Dinner and a birthday cake was just the right amount for Makoto. While he didn't mind having a party or anything like that, he preferred that with his friends and most of them weren't here. So, he was happy with just this much.
So, to try and perhaps calm JJ just a little bit, Makoto padded over to the stove and slipped his arms around JJ's middle, resting his chin on a broad shoulder.]
