Gift Exchange...Oops
Own nothing :(
Rachel and I had done the sleeping over at Sarah's house. We decided to spend the night since we would be there all day for our own party of Christmas. I was wrapping up Gar's present on Sarah's couch when Rachel came over to me.
"Ever since last night and this morning you act all sad." she said to me.
"I am not the sad, I am most wonderful." I did the lying.
"We can tell when you're lying." Sarah said while sitting the next to me.
"I have tried several times to tell Richard that I love him, but last night we were the interrupted before I could tell him. So maybe I am not meant to tell him." I said to them. I felt the very sad that I almost wanted to do the crying.
"Or maybe it's not the right time to tell him. Maybe you just have to wait and see." Rachel said to me. I did the sighing not wanting to do the excepting of her answer to me. I did the frowning and finished wrapping Garfield's present.
"Ok, now you two have to help me cook the pigs in a blanket." Sarah told us.
"Why are we wrapping pigs into blankets?" I asked.
"No, they're mini hot dogs wrapped in dough." Sarah said to me.
"Are they like the hot of dogs?" I asked. They both nodded. Rachel was melting the cheese for the nachos, and I was helping Sarah wrap the mini hot of dogs into their blankets of dough.
"I'm so excited to open presents!" Sarah did the exclaiming while mixing the batter of the brownies.
"Richard has already presented me with my gift." I told them happily.
"What?!" Sarah asked.
"He gave me my..." I could not finish when Sarah started to do the ranting.
"I specifically told him we're not giving gifts until today! He is going to get it! Of all the no good lying..." Sarah started to say before Rachel did the cutting of her off.
"He said he got you a special present for you if you would let him off the hook." Rachel said to her.
"Fine." she said. I giggled. Then the bell of doors did the ringing. Sarah left to go answer it.
"Really hope Richard can pull away from Sarah's wrath." Rachel said. I smiled and did the laughing. The boys came the in and were watching Rachel and I.
"Richard you are in so much trouble." Sarah said to him. He handed her a small package with a ribbon.
"Merry Christmas?" he said not being so sure of himself. Sarah opened it and in the side was a most adorable clip of flowers.
"If you think this is going to work..." Sarah started to say before Richard did the handing of her a shake.
"It's vanilla swirl. Gar says it's your favorite." Richard said.
"Fine, your off the hook, but if you do something like this again you are dead." she said to him. I could not help but to laugh. He did the hugging of me.
"Please tell me we can eat now." Garfield did the begging. Oops. I was suppose to be watching over the blankets with pigs in them. I ran to the oven. They all looked like little coals of black.
"My brother is the right. I can not cook." I said.
"It's all right I can find a pizza place that's open." Richard said to me. While Richard was doing the ordering. Garfield was doing the complaining to Sarah about having the meat for lunch. Victor tried to do the defending of her by saying meat is the goodness for you. I giggled at them in their quarrel. Richard took my arm and took me toward the room of dining away from everyone else.
"Is there something the matter?" I asked him.
"I didn't get to see you after Barbra told me that Bruce was looking for me last night." he said. I did not know what to say to him.
"Well... I needed to find Sarah, and tell her that I needed to do the grabbing of my stuff for the party of slumber." I said. It was true, but the real reason was because I was the hurt by Barbra doing the ruining of our moment.
"You seemed upset. And you were interrupted." he said. I wished he did not remember that.
"It is the o and k now." I said trying to smile for him. Then the bell of doors did the ringing once again. Victor did the paying for the pizzas.
"Come on guys we're going to eat now." Gar said while leading Richard and I to the room of living. We all did the enjoying of the pizza.
"The pizza was most delicious." I said after all the slices of the pizza were gone.
"Can we open presents now?" Garfield did the whining.
"After I grab the snacks." Sarah said to him. I went to help her, trying to avoid Richard's gaze of him wondering what I was going to say to him. I grabbed the plate of brownies and the nachos, and Sarah grabbed the candies and chips.
"Who is going to open presents first?" Garfield did the asking.
"How about you pass out your presents first." Victor said to him. Garfield did the hopping up and gave the presents of badly wrapped to us. Victor got a top of laps case, and Richard got a wallet with a bee on it. Sarah received a holder of earing in the shape of a poodle, and I got a diary. Rachel received a book of her favorite poetry with her name on the front of the book. She did the hugging of Garfield when she was finished.
"Wow, man you went all out!' Victor did the exclaiming.
"Yeah you really did." Richard said in the manner of sarcasm. I did the giggling. I also received a book of cooking, holder of the pennies, one of my favorite books, and a pair of the glasses of sun with little hearts on the sides.
"I love all of my presents, friends." I told them while hugging all of them. Richard did the taking of me home.
"So what were you going to say earlier before the pizza came?" Richard did the asking. I did the gulping.
"Um... it was the nothing." I said trying to get to my apartment faster. He grabbed my arm to do the slowing of me down.
"I don't like not knowing, and I can tell you've been trying to tell me for awhile." he said. Oh, why could this not be the moment Ryan would open my door and do the interrupting of us? Luckily someone else did. I heard a familiar barking noise coming up the stairs.
"Good, Kori grab these bags." my grandmother said while setting all of her bags down. Richard did the sighing and helped me with my grandmother's bags.
"I hope you have the wonderful Christmas." I told Richard. He did the smiling and nodding. I shut the door and went to go help my grandmother do the unpacking. Our home was the wreck after just the couple of seconds of my grandmother being here. Killer was doing the chasing of Silkie.
"The place looks awful." Ryan said. I did the rolling of my eyes. After cleaning up, I went to bed with Silkie doing the staying in my room. He stared at the door making sure Killer could not get past my door that was closed. I laughed at him.
"Come on Silkie it is time for bed." I told him. I did the picking of him up. He felt the heavier than usual. Then we both went to sleep. We both woke up to the glorious Christmas morning. I went into the room of living with Silkie in my arms.
"Here Kori, you can open the first one." my brother said to me. I opened my package and it was the pod of I.
"Thank you." I said joyfully. Ryan received a new game of video, and Galfore got the mitts of the oven. I gave my grandmother a toaster. She did not seem at all grateful. I suppose it was because she missed Koma not being here with the rest of us. A few of the weeks later it was the Year of the New Eve.
I decided to watch our city's party from my balcony. The rest of my family had gone down to the streets. I did breathing in of the fresh cool air. A chill then did the running up my spine when I looked at my school. I received a feeling of badness when I saw it. I tried to do the ignoring of it, but it would not leave me.
