BPOV(Beryl)

"Well, he's home till tomorrow. The Cullen's went to Europe for shopping." Sam explained. Wow. Who would go to Europe just to shop. Well, they're really, really rich. 'guess they can do that.

"Okay." Quil ran and came back with the motorcycle.

"Okay. We're ready to leave!" Quil said then started the bike.

***********

Time skip: Two days before Christmas and they're at Beryl's parents. They're in California

Rrrrrrrring! Rrrrrrrrrrrring! 10:oo am

My alarm clock rang. I shut it off quickly. My mom and dad are leaving for England this afternoon. So, it means that only me, Emily, Claire, Sam, Quil and Seth are going to be here. Our little shopping trip at the Seattle mall was fun! But I'm not finish yet. I haven't found a perfect gift for Emily and Seth. My best friends are spending the're Christmas night here, too. On our way here a my parents house Quil had a little accident on the plane. Let's just say he's not used to plane rides.

I quicky showered because I will drive my mom and dad to the airport. After that I will go to the mall to meet my BFF's and roomies at our flat in Masachusettes. I dressed casually. Denim shorts, dress shirt, flip-flops and my Oakley sunglasses.

"Beryl!" my dad called.

"Yeah, I'm coming!" I shouted as I pick up the keys to my SUV.

"Dad, where's your luggage? I'll put it to the trunk." I asked my dad as I went to the kitchen to fetch something to eat. I grab a bottled water and a granola bar.

"Hun, where's your friends?" My dad asked. Me and my mom are not close that's why we don't talk o each other that much.

"Maybe they're still sleeping." I shrugged. It's just a 30-minute drive to the airport. I went straight to the mall where I met my best friends-slash-roomies.

"Beryl!" They called.

"Jedi! Tina! Ashley! Gette!" I run towards them.

"How are you guys?" I asked.

"Well, we're alright. Now, when will we meet your prince charming?" Gette asked anxiously.

"Well, maybe later. For now, help me find gifts for them Emily and Seth." I told them and drag them towards the Tiffany and co. boutique.

"Ooh, someone's having trouble finding gifts. How is Emily and her fiancee?" Jedi poke my side.

"Shut up and Emily and her fiancee are at my place." I said then I saw the cutest pair of earrings! It has diamond studs.

"Good afternoon ma'am. How may I help you?" the sales lady greeted.

"How about you show me those earrings?" I asked, smiling to her.

"Yes, ma'am." She told me. Tiffany and co. has new sales person this year.

"Oh, looky who's here." I heard a familiar nasally voice from beside me.

"Oh, the little brat is in town." I heard the other nasally voice agree.

"Shut up Prettina. She's not here to make a scene." Jedi shove her aside.

"Ugh! She just touched me!" Prettina complained.

"Guys, ingore them." I told my friends.

"Okay, I will let you go for now. But you will pay for ingoring me Garcia." Prettina walked out with Redey following her.

"You just dissed 'em." Gette said cheerfully.

"Well, yeah. That's what you get when you mess with a 'brat'." I laughed.

"I'll get that earrings and please wrap it as a Christmas gift." I said giving her my credit card and she nodded. "Thanks." I said.

'you will know, that angels brought me here' Gette's phone rang. We all peakk behind her back to know who's calling. Remy. I should have known.

Remy was my old suitor who I set up with Gette, and now. They're happy together! I'm so happy for them. Remy was like a big bro to me.

Gette tossed me her phone and told me to talk to him.

"Hey bro!" I greeted.

"Hey bie! How's my little sis?" He greeted back.

"I'm okay. And why did Gette gave me her phone?" I asked him.

"I told her I'm going down to your place. She told me to ask permission to you. So, is it okay?" He asked me.

"Yeah, go ahead. Bring Hilmmy and Dan, too." I answered.

"Okay. Thanks."He said then I gave Gette the phone.

"Please enter your pin." the lady said to me. I put my pin and gave her back the I-dont-know-what-it-is-thing.

"Enjoy." She said as we exit the shop.

"Now, help me decide what to get for Seth." I told them. They pulled me to a tribal shop named Tropicari. A braided leather bracelet caught my eye and I immediatley bought it.

"So, where do you wanna go next?" Tina asked.

"Are you guys hungry?" I asked them.

"Not that much." They said.

"Oh, god! I forgot about the people in my house! Do you mind if we just drive-thru?" I said.

"It's okay. Let's go." Ashley said. We went straight to the parking lot and went to Mcdonalds.

"Beryl, don't panic. What time did you get out from the house?" Jedi asked.

"11:00 am." I said looking at my phone for any signs of call.

"It's just 1:00 pm. Don't panic. They're still probably sleeping." Tina suggested.

"I miss this town so much." Tina said coolly at the back.

"Yeah, so sunny and fun." Ashley agreed cheerfully.

SPOV(Seth)

"Seth! Wake up!" Someone knocked on the door.

"What?!" I asked. I'm still sleepy. I don't know why.

"Seth, we're going t eat lunch. Just come down stairs." I recognized the voice it was Beryl.

"Yeah, I'm coming!" I stood up and went straight to the bathroom to clean up.

I went down to see several new faces. Three boys and four girls.

"Oh, hey Seth! We have new guest who are staying over!" Quil said enthusiastically.

"Oh, hi." I said and grab my lunch.

"Seth, can I borrow you for a minute from your lunch?" Beryl asked me, raising an eyebrow.

"Oh, yeah. Sure." I told her and stood up from the couch.

"Hey Tina, Jedi, Gette, Ashley, Hilmmy, Dan, and Rem. This is Seth." She introduced me.

"Oh, hi dude." The black haired one greeted.

"Hi." I greeted back smiling.

"By the way I'm Remy, this Dan and Hilmmy." He said and pointed to each of them.

"Hey! Your cute! My name is Ashley." The little one said she had short hair, and very bubbly. I felt some strange heat on my face.

"I'm Jedi." Said the tall brunette one smiling at me.

"Hi I'm Gorgette. But you will call me Gette." Said the red-head, shaking my hand.

"And I'm Tina." The other one said.

"Well, you met him already. Now, go see Sam. Emily's fiancée." She told them shoving them to the kitchen.

"Well, that's my friends or as I call the BFF's." Beryl told me laughing lightly.

"Well, they're all nice and the boys seems funny." I continued eating my lunch. I look at her.

"Sorry from keeping you from lunch. See yah." She skipped to the kitchen and heard them giggling and laughing.

I went to the kitchen to drink. I saw Remy's arm over Beryl's shoulder and her arms around his waist. I wish we were like that. I shook my head in disappointment.

"Hey, Seth. Come here" Quil said. He was carrying Claire who was eating ice cream.

"Yeah, join us." Ashley said.

We talked for hours. Bonding and knowing each others personalities. I found out that they all grew here in California and most of them have Spanish blood except for Hilmmy, Ashley, and Dan. And I also found out who has the longest name which is Tina, 'coz her whole name is Maria Cristina Santiago Gutirrez. First time I heard her name I thought she was Italian. They all laughed at me. And we told each other who was our high school crushes. Once I told them who's mine they 'oh, that's so sweet' and 'aw,sweet!' by 5:00 pm we decided to go to the private beach party. There are going to be bands and other singers playing.

"Hey Beryl! Can we just wear our board shorts since we're going to the beach?" Quil joked around.

"No Quil! Claire might not appreciate the girls ogling over you!" she laughed, her bells-like laugh.

"Okay!" Quil shouted and headed to his assigned bedroom. After a few minutes I went down to see only the guys. We're like wearing uniforms. We were all in board shorts except in different colors.

"Hey! We're in uniform!" Quil chimed. We all laughed at his comment.

Then they quiet down. I look at the direction they we're looking I saw the six beautiful ladies coming down the stairs. The one wearing a red strapless dress was stunning. Her long black hair falling down her back.

"Hey, Seth! We're leaving dude!" Remy waved in front of me. I was staring like a duffoos.

"Seth! Let's go! We're going to be late!" Beryl tugged on my wrist out of the door.

BPOV(Beryl)

As we got down I saw the boys in uniform. I wanted to laugh 'til I saw Seth staring at me. He looked so cute.

"Hey Seth! We're leaving dude!" Remy waved his hands infront of Seth.

"Seth! Let's go! We're going to be late!" I pulled him out the door. I went home here in Cali for two reasons; I want to see my dad again and there's going to be a big, exclusive concert at the beach tonight!

The bands that are going to play are Maroon 5, Paramore, Red Jumpsuit Aparatus and many more. Akon, Beyonce, Jesse McCartney, Avril Lavigne, Black Eyed-Peas, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift and many others are playing, too, for the charity that put up the exclusive concert for Christmas.

"Remy! Start walking and stop making up with Gette!" Ashley shouted. We all erupted in laughter. We reached the venue and I saw five unexpected faces. Let me get that right. Five unexpected and unpleasant faces.

"Oh, Hi Beryl! Who are the cuties with you?" Prettina greeted with her voice sounding like a cat squealing. I knew this was just all fake.

"Uh, Hi bi-Prettina." I said faking.

"This are my friends. Do you mind if we went to the other side." I told her tugging Seths hands. It was hot.

"Oh, I don't mind. I'll come with you then." She said touching his shoulder. I turned to give her a death glare. I think I just saw her shudder.

Good, it means I scared her. I smiled evilly to myself.

"Love, why are you smiling?" Seth asked. Oh my gosh! Did he just called me 'love'?! Or he's just helping me to get rid of the priss? Oh, well. He still called me 'love'!

"Nothing, Seth. Let's just.....hmm........ What do you wanna do?" I said sweetly. I turned to Prettina and saw her glaring at me. Well, she can't scare me with that.

"Oh, so your name is Seth? Beryl do you mind if I borrow him for a minute?" She said imitating my sweet voice but you could still detect the fakeness.

"Uh. Yes, my name is Seth. And sorry I'm not available for the moment maybe you can ask someone." he said turning her offer off.

"Oh. Ugh." she rolled her eyes and strutted off.

"What did you do that for?" I asked laughing from what just happened.

"Well, I really want to be alone with you. So, I told her the truth." he smiled pulling me closer to him.
