There are so many things she wishes she could say. How she likes his name for her--a human name. How she sees him as her hero. Not for only saving her and pulling her back into the world, but for reminding her what it was like to be a human girl. How much it means to her that he would want to spend his birthday with her when he has so many people he could be spending it with. Parties, music, cars... women. Pepper is sure to keep bringing up the last fact. Little Mermaid may be naive in many things, but, a simple search into the life of Tony Stark would show why.
Still, a part of her can't help but hope she might be different. Like Pepper is different.
Even if the emotion she feels may not be returned in the same way.
That's for the best, isn't it? He should focus his attentions on a human woman. Someone like Pepper. ]

We can have a small party before your birthday ends! One dance and then you can say it wasn't a boring birthday at all. Uhmm... if that's what you'd want to do!
[ If she really is a "hell of a birthday gift", then, she wants to make sure he really has a smile on his birthday. That he gets to celebrate it the way he wants.
One he'll remember with a smile when they inevitability come to take her away. ]
