Hey! This is a Christmas story about an American girl that I made named Jessica. Hope you like it! ;)
Chapter one
I felt like a frozen ice sickle. "NOW," said a voice over the loud speaker. "Is Jessica Harper!" The crowd burst out clapping and cheering. But my feet wouldn't move. "Go." My friend Terra Watson whispered. She gave me a little nudge. The song jingle bells filled the building. I ran over and jumped up into the air. I wrapped my hands around the bars. I started doing all kinds off flips and turns and tricks. Then, for the big dismount. I let go at just the right time. I soared through the air twirling around until I was sure I had hit the mat safely. The crowd roared their approval as I walked off the mat to join my teammates. The rest of the show went by so fast. The next thing I knew I was on my way home. It was the grand finale-my part- that made me so nervous. It was a Christmas Eve show and practically the whole town showed up! I was relived to be going home now. My couch- Couch Brian- had thought that I was the best gymnast in our team, (that was really supposed to be a good thing) so he asked if I would do my bar routine for the grand finale. I had said yes even though I didn't really like the idea of it. But it was such an honor and I didn't want to disappoint him. But who cared now? It was over. And I couldn't wait to open my presents tomorrow on Christmas Eve! I couldn't believe it was tomorrow already! It seamed like just yesterday it was the very first day of December. I sighed remembering that. I really did seam like that. But now, all I cared about was getting home and going to bed. Tomorrow, Tomorrow! I kept thinking, and this time it was really true. It wasn't me dreaming or playing a game, or just plane pretending that it was Christmas any more (like it usually was). Tonight it was really true. Tomorrow.
