“Good morning, Saihara-chan!” Punctuating every syllable, he sways from side to side right in front of his door. He brings up the chocolate cake—partially to show it off ( a simple little thing, he was never one for cooking, and he dare not ask Toujou, let alone anyone, for help ) and partially as if to throw it.
Oh, but he's not going to. That'd be a waste of cake. And money. And his time spent hours in the kitchen slaving on this stupid thing. “I bet you thought I'd forget, didn't you?” Kokichi didn't, of course, but he's been holed up trying to make something to one up everyone―jeez, he's not doing this out of the kindness of his heart and because he actually like, likes Saihara, he insists!―that he may or may not be late on the date.
He raises the cake higher, and it slowly slides downwards on the plate. “Happy birthday! This time, I promise I didn't add anything inedible!”
...It may taste a bit burnt, though.

{ Shuichi Birthday!! 🎉}
"Ah, good morning, Ouma...." The way Kokichi is holding that cake, makes Shuichi trail off nervously... "....k-kun.... D..Did you make that? It looks nice...! In my favorite flavor and everything...!" No, surely he was only holding it like that so that Shuichi can get a good look at it...right? With this prankster, he wouldn't put it past him him to throw it... but if that was the cake, he's sure Kokichi would have snuck up on him or something. Plus, it really does look too good of a cake to waste for such a prank... and so, his shoulders relax, as he answers:
"A-Ah, no, I didn't think that... if anything, I was just surprised I hadn't seen you until now. But now I see why that is: you baked this cake...just for me...?" He doesn't know how well Kokichi's baking skills are, but he can't imagine it must have been easy to bake this. He was touched.... "It looks good... you did a great job on it, Ouma-kun. Thank you!"
Seeing him slide the cake onto the plate, he just gives a playful eye roll at that 'inedible' joke. "Oh how sweet of you to make sure of that. Goodness..." He chortles, before he uses a fork and a knife to cut himself a slice. Then as he takes a bite, he does taste a bit of the burnt part, which makes his face scrunch up ever so slightly for a moment... but other than that, the cake tastes delicious.. uttering a content hum as he takes another bite of it.
"...And is good! I love it. Thank you so much again, Ouma-kun!" He takes a moment to finish the rest of that slice, not even affected by the slight burnt tastes, anymore. Then...after a bit of hesitation.... "......." He goes over and pulls Kokichi into a soft hug. Even if he's the one who initiated it: his face is so red....
"S....S-S-Sorry if this is too forward, u-um. I just.....v-very touched you baked me a cake, s-so I thought I would, um: e-express that more thoroughly....y-yes."

Then after a long minute, he releases him, since he's nervous if that was okay to do... and before his cheeks burn even worse... "S-So!! Would you like s-some of this cake, too? I know you made it for me, b-but I would be happy t-to enjoy it together with you...!!"
