Have a good time!
6:19 am, Kadic Academy, general pov
So tired...EW what's that? SLURP SLURP!
"EW, Kiwi, stop"
As Odd pushed kiwi off his face, he remembered something.
"Christmas eve. Yay." he yawned as he looked out the window.
It was snowing, so what? He thought.Did I just think that thought I think I thought? He thought. (That was confusing)
"IT'S SNOWING! WHOOOO"
Ulrich woke with a start.
"What that"
"It's snowing, hurry up and get dressed!" Odd said as he pulled on a warm, purple, jacket and matching gloves.
Soon they were both dressed and were getting breakfast.
As Odd and Ulrich chowed down, Jermie was getting his own rude awakening.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK "Jermie are you in there? WAKE UP"
At the shout, Jermie fell out of bed to the floor with a crash.
"Ow. Ok, I'll be out in a minute"
He took one look outside and decided to dress warm.
After he got dressed, he opened the door to see Aelita standing there, looking a little impatient.
"Everyone is saying that it's snowing. What's snow"
He explained how snow is frozen water particles and ... blah blah blah.
"Ok I get it now! But something else is bothering me. Someone said that it's 'christmas'. What's christmas"
"You got to be joking, right"
Aelita shook her head.
"Oh my god. We forgot to tell you about Christmas"
SLAP. "We are sooo stupid"
"Jermie, why did you slap your self on the forehead"
"Ummm... never mind that. Christmas is... ummmm." How do you explain Christmas? He thought.
"Christmas is a time of year...where … people celebrate peace around the world and spend time with family and friends. People buy presents and get together and decorate trees and do a whole bunch of…… stuff." He ended lamely.
"Well if you buy presents for friends, what will I do"
"I need to go pick something up at the mall, do you still have that money we gave you"
"Yes, Yumi got me a wallet to hold it in too"
"Ok then. Time for some last minute Christmas shopping"
As they arrived at the mall, it was packed with last minute shoppers.
They could barely get into the stores.
"Aelita, go get what you need, and meet me back at the fountain." He said while pointing to a fantastic water display.
"Ok see you in," She looked at her watch, "thirty minutes"
They went their separate ways.
Jermie headed directly to a jewelry store.
"Hi, I'm here to pick up a package for a Jermie Beplios"
"Your receipt please"
Jermie dug in his pockets for something.
"Ah ha! Here it is!" He said, handing over a little piece of paper.
"Ok I'll be right back with your package"
Two minutes later, the employee came back with a long, thin present wrapped in blue sparkly wrapping paper and tied with a white string with a white bow on top.
"Thank you, and Happy Holidays!" Jermie said as he walked out of the store.
As Aelita walked into the first store, something caught her eye instantly.
"Odd will love this!" She said reaching into the discount box.
She pulled out a paint set with multiple colors, brushes, and a stick of charcoal.
She carried around the store as she looked for more gifts.
She saw something she knew that Ulrich would like. A soccer ball. She got that too.
Then came Yumi's present. A cute keychain with the Japanese symbol for tranquility.
As she bought these items, she saw nothing for Jermie. So she went to the next store.
Then she saw it.
On a shelf.
All by it's self.
An Einstein mug.
She immediately bought it.
A couple of minutes later, Aelita arrived at the fountain to find a worn out Jermie.
"What happened to you"
"There was a sale down there being announced when I was coming this way." He said pointing to the other end of the mall.
Aelita giggled.
"Well I got you a"
Jermie put a hand to her mouth.
"Don't tell me what you got me"
"Why not"
"Oh boy. You wait till Christmas to give the present, wrapped up, as a holiday surprise"
"Oh. Ok"
"I bought wrapping paper, ribbon, and name tags for you to wrap with, so we'll start when we get home"
"Sounds good"
As they were walking up to Kadic Academy, they were pelted with snowballs.
"AHHHHHHHHHH"
"SO COLD!" Jermie screamed.
Wild laughter came behind a mound of snow.
"GOT YOU GUYS!" Odd screamed "Odd! your dead meat!" "WAHHHHHH!" Odd screamed as Ulrich and Yumi flung snowballs at him.
"Why are you guys attacking Odd?" Aelita asked.
They both blushed.
"He intruded our walk." Ulrich said sheepishly as he got pelted with three more snowballs.
"Well we got to go wrap gifts, so if you would cover for"
"GIFTS?!" Odd asked loudly.
"Oh no"
"It's ok. We'll cover you so the gift alcoholic doesn't get you"
"Thanks." Jermie said as they ran inside.
Jermie taught Aelita how to wrap gifts and so on.
Then Aelita said," You need to go Jermie. So I can wrap your gift, ok"
"Alright, see you at dinner. And hide the gifts so Odd doesn't get them"
At dinner, everyone was talking about what would happen the next morning.
They were guessing gifts and saying what they wish they would get.
As Usual, the only ones there where the gang and few other boarding students. Cissi included unfortunately.
"Ulrich dear, what did you get me for Christmas"
"A big fat load of nothing"
"Well why don't you come over here and stand under the mistletoe with me"
"I'd rather stand under the mistletoe with a donkey than you"
The whole group laughed at this.
"Well good night all I got to get home." Yumi said and left for home.
"I better turn in to, I don't know about you Aelita, but I'm tired from that shopping"
"Yeah me too." Aelita said.
"I'm going to go to bed too." Ulrich said as he got up.
"Same here." Odd said and followed Ulrich.
As they all started to drift off to sleep, they all had one last conscious thought.
What is in store for tomorrow?
