Chapter nineteen
Disclaimer: I don't own anything!!
I was pushed into a seat and told very firmly by Alice to: "Sit and stay!" Edward and Emmett were zooming around the room dropping presents in their laps. I soon had a huge pile. I saw that at least 10 of them were from Alice.
"Okay, on three everybody open your first gift. 1…2…3." RIP! I gingerly picked up a present. Everyone was staring. They had already opened theirs. I rolled my eyes and opened it. I smiled. It was a two beautiful silky baby blankets. Esme must have made them. They were beautiful. The pink one said Natalie, and the yellow one said Elizabeth. "Thank you." I said to her.
The next twenty minutes were very eventful. I got at least ten outfits from Alice, the blankets from Esme, painkillers from Emmett – he thought it was very funny, a pre-made scrap book from Rosalie, and a mysterious note from Edward that said he'd show me later. I thanked everyone generously.
Emmett really liked his gift. "Awesome!" then he fell off his chair laughing. Edward raised his eyebrows at me, surprised I would get a gift for him like that. I just shook my head, laughing too hard to speak.
Edward opened his gift. Immediately, a huge, crooked smile dominated his face. When he was finished studying the pictures, he caught my lips in a rough, earnest kiss. We went on until Rosalie cleared her throat loudly. I quickly pulled back, blushing.
Alice yelled out, "Supper time!" I glanced around surprised. They had made Christmas dinner for just me?
We all sat around the large dining room table. Esme and Alice brought in steaming plates of roast beef, and a steaming pile of mashed potatoes, then came in the boat of gravy.A gravy holder is called a gravy boat, so that's correct.) I helped myself to everything. When I was finished, we all started clearing the table.
The rest of the day we played cards, I won 500 dollars off of Emmett. Edward led me up to the bedroom and asked, "do you want to know what your Christmas present is?"
I nodded eagerly, "Yes!" He smiled and opened the door.
There, on the bed, was….
I know, I'm pathetic. I can't think of any Christmas gifts. None. I feel bad about doing this to you guys again. I promise I'll write more soon!! Sorry.
