She said, 'I was seven and you were nine
I looked at you like the stars that shined
In the sky, the pretty lights'
'And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
Growing up and falling in love
And our momma smiled and rolled their eyes'
And said, 'Oh, my, my, my'
Take me back to the house in the backyard trees
Said you would beat me up, you were bigger then me
You never did, you never did
Take me back when our world was one block wide
I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
Just two kids, you and I, oh, my, my, my, my
"Massie come down inside you need to get dressed for our Christmas Eve Annual dinner" my mom shouted through the kitchen door
"Mom, do I have to I wanna play more" I wined
"Honey, our guests going to be here soon, and you need to be cleaned up and change out of your play clothes and into you dinner clothes."
I knew she was going to say that but its worth I try. Anyways I get to show off that new purple Armani Junior dress with the black bow I just got yesterday to Derrick, my best friend since practically forever. Or seven years which is my whole lifetime anyway.
Derricks nine but I hang out with him and all the other kids on the block all the time; Alicia, Chris, and Dylan are my age, Josh, Cammie (Cam), Layne, and Dempsey are Derricks age, and Dune, Kemp, Claire, and Kristen are a year younger then me. Then there was Claire's little brother Todd who was four, and really annoying. Sometimes even Chris Albey (Layne's brother) plays with us, but he's already eleven.
I ran inside the kitchen to my mom and she picked me up and put me in the bubble bath.
Once I was done she dried me off and I got to wear my purple dress (yay!) my hair was in a pony and I my bangs were curled just right. My mom gave me these new black, Dior shoes with purple rhinestones, to match my dress.
Ding dong the doorbell rang our housekeeper, Inez, opened the door, Just as my mom finished putting on my tights leaving me to do the shoes.
My Dad and her hurried to the door to see the Harringtons standing at the door.
"Kendra, how are you," Mrs. Harrington asked "You look marvelous.
"And so do you" my Mom replied. "Derrick, Massie is in her room, go up and get her.
I could hear him run up the two flights of stairs to my room, and by the time he reached it he was all huffy out of breath.
"Hey Massie, what's up?" he barely breathed out. "Your mom told me to come get you to come down stairs"
"So lets go"
As we walked done stairs I could hear our dads talking about us. They were saying how we have been friends since birth, and that one day we are so going to fall in love and get married. And our moms were just laughing along with them rolling there eyes.
Ewe, me and Derrick married? Gross he is just my best friend and that is it I would never marry him. Chris Albey maybe, but no never Derrick.
I looked at him and saw his deep brown eyes sparkling kind of like the stars I saw when I slept in the backyard that one time that will never happen again! There were tons of bugs and stuff.
Just as we got to the bottom of the stairs Derrick started laughing at what our parents were talking about
"Block, will you marry me?" he asked jokingly and jokingly
"Only if you kiss me first" I joked back
He tried to but I ran away. I ran really fast, faster then ever before. And right as he caught me Chris, Josh, and Cammie walked in, so he let me go and we went over to talk to them.
Then everyone else came and joined in with us, even Chris A.
All our parents talked like the best friends they were. They were all best friends and the most popular kids in there school, and they were all still always doing things together.
"Kids, time for dinner" my Dad called to us. We had the best Christmas Eve dinner ever.
Everyone stayed over so that we could open presents tomorrow all together.
We tried to stay up all night but I ended up falling asleep during the movie we were watching. And when I woke up the next morning I was still in Derricks lap the same way I fell asleep. He was sleeping so I decided to shout really loud in his ear and wake him up.
"Present time" I shrieked as loud as I could in his ear and ran down stairs. A couple minutes later everyone was groggily making there way over to the tree, and started sorting thought and finding there stuff. After we were done sorting I ran up to get our parents to come down so we could open them.
I ended up getting a lot of stuff. A new purple Ralf Lauren shirt, a Tiffany necklace, three new pairs of shoes; purple, high top converse, black Tori Birch flats, and customized purple and black cleats from Cammie of course. A sparkly purple soccer ball from Derrick, him and Cam love soccer so much. I play with them sometimes, and I'm pretty good. A Shark tooth necklace, a box of chocolates, a bunch of people, black, and white pony tail holders, a Burberry headband, a DKNY cropped jacket, a set of sparkly pens in different shades of purple, and a Journal to write in (Claire, and Layne always buy something that go together).
But my favorite gift I got this year was from my parents. A small puppy I instantly named Bean. Hen Derrick made everyone come outside and we all played soccer, in our pajamas, and the various wearable presents we received. Our patents came out to watch us, while Inez made a breakfast of toast, eggs, bacon, pancakes, waffles, assorted muffins, bacon, and some fancy things I can't pronounce.
All the parents left after breakfast, but we all played out side for the rest of the day. It was defiantly the best Christmas ever
