BlazingEmber: Well, it's hard to strike inspiration but it's fun at the same time, Finally there's a Memory for May and Brendan to recover
Chapter 2 Holiday Greetings,
The First memory both of them remembered was at Christmas, 2027. both of them Age 16 having a competition to see who has the higher total gift value, now for kids they don't really mind how many, they really mind how much. May tore her gift from her parents and looked away in disgust
"Ack, I told you mom that I didn't want another dress!" she complained loudly
"Well we couldn't think of another present" Her Mother replied
"You could've tried a bit harder on that, Max secretly makes fun of these anyway" She informed, glaring at his younger brother
"We're sorry we didn't get you the present you wanted, but you should learn to appreciate these even if they're not what you wanted" The Father lectured as she looked down
Brendan on the other hand was spending Christmas at their house, as both their Families were having a party, come to think of it, little root was a tad bit small that there were only 2 families living there. But anyway, Brendan looked upon his gifts. They were small and he thought to himself.
Smaller Gifts are better, big ones are usually toys for kids, Smaller ones are usually gadgets
He grinned as he sat down cross-legged and glanced slightly at May. Putting aside the so-called dress. He grabbed the first present, also from his parents. Light, small, he shook the Box a bit and finally opened it
"Ah yes, I finally have my Z3" He murmured to himself as he looked in awe at the glasses, not surprisingly Max was right beside him.
"Cool! You have a Z3!" Max stared with the look of a madman
The Z3 were Sunglasses Designed to create Video and Audio Output, its very similar to an MP4 but rather obtains Surround sound, Digital Sync, Hi Precision Quality, and Cutting-Edge Graphics. Brendan tried it on and posed himself a bit.
"What do you think Max?" He asked bragging a bit
"Not bad" he said, mischievously trying to sneak away his presents
"Don't even think about it" Brendan said as the Z3 zoomed in the motion detection feature
"Darn" he said but snatched a present anyway and ran
"Get back here!" Brendan said with his Z3 playing his favorite song, strangely speeding him up
May opened another Present, it was from the Professor. Judging from his high reputation she thinks that he bought her an expensive gift, her guess was correct. She got the PB9.8, a Watch that could expand itself. Create holographic images. And has a rocking Stereo.
"Finally!" She said as she looked at her Father who was also a bit impressed, her mother on the other hand will never meet up to her demands on presents.
Brendan finally Caught the Present Max snatched away, and opened it. He wasn't taken by Surprise as he got himself another book from his dad. 'Creatures of Legend, truth or Fiction' Another interesting read maybe but he was honestly sick of reading books already. Considering he already has a whole shelf of them.
May went outside to test her PB and Brendan followed close behind. The cool night air played with their hair as they huddled a bit closer as they moved, the temperature dropped lower.
"Eheh… This seems a bit Awkward" May remarked on their current walking position side by side
"Really? I think this is getting comfy" He said as he grinned sheepishly
"I'm not a human pillow you know!" She snapped quietly
"I didn't say you were" He informed defending himself in a way she wouldn't notice.
"Hey, what about my present?" She asked him with pleading eyes
"Oh, you're Present? It seems I don't have it with me" Brendan lied which was pretty obvious
"Oh come on!" She tugged gently on his arm
"Alright already" He said in a rather warming tone as he held out his present to her
"You got me Jewelry?" She asked stunned
"Well I can't think of anything else" He stammered
"Thank you!" She said, tackling and hugging him at the same time, causing them to both fall into the white blanket of snow
"Okay, now let me fix that for you" Brendan said as he fixed the necklace on her neck as it shimmered Sapphire.
"Come on, Were going to be late for dinner!" She said running towards the house
"Hey!" He said as he ran alongside her
Brendan and May, Best of friends, Arch rivals, and secret lovers,
To them the Memory was rather refreshing to think about. A Memory Unforgotten, A Tale to Remember
