Valentine Surprises

Chapter 7

In the early morning Sara was in charge of getting all the kids to school. She pulled up to the front of the school and the four children hopped out.

"Have a good day" Sara called to them.

"We will mommy" Nicole called back to her.

"Bye mommy" Matt also called as the four headed into the school waving as she drove off.

Alejandro was responsible to get Maribelle and the twins to their class. "Alright I will see you guys later" Alejandro said to them.

"Yep" Maribelle told her brother and quickly ran into her classroom with Matt and Nicole all excited for their valentine party.

"Good morning you guys" Mrs. Mac said to the twins and Maribelle.

"Morning Mrs. Mac" They all said together.

"We brought cookies," Nicole said showing her teacher.

Mrs. Mac smiled at her and then showed her where she can put them. As Nicole took the cookies to put them on the table, Matt and Maribelle ran over to play with Danny and the blocks.

Nicole placed the cookies on the table and heard someone come up behind her.

"Hi" the little voice said.

"Hi Tyler" Nicole smiled. "You should try my cookies" Nicole said opening the container so that Tyler could try one.

"Thank you" Tyler said with a smile. "Mmm good"

Nicole nodded with a smile. "I like the picture you made me."

"Nicole, come over here" Matt called from the block area.

Nicole turned her head in his direction and saw Matt, Maribelle and Danny. She turned back to Tyler who was still in front of her. "Do you want to play with us?" Nicole asked him.

Tyler smiled and nodded "Okay." Nicole smiled and the two headed over to Matt and the others to play with the blocks. The five friends played together all day. They played with the blocks, colored together, did their math and english work beside each other. Nicole and Tyler were especially inseparable during the day. They would walk together, sit and worked beside each other and ate their lunch together.

"Okay everybody it's time to hand out you valentine cards." Mrs. Mac told the class.

All the children headed to get their valentine cards to hand out to the class. As they made their way around the table putting them in everyone's valentine boxes Nicole stopped in front of Tyler, "Here I made this for you" she said to Tyler handing him a drawing she made him.

Tyler smiled at her as he took the drawing. "Thanks"

At the end of the day they all gathered by their coat hooks and got ready to go home. Slipping on her coat and zipping it up, Tyler came up to Nicole. "Happy valentines Nicole." He said shyly.

Nicole smiled at him "Happy Valentines Tyler, well bye."

She quickly ran to catch up with Matt and Maribelle as they headed out of the school. She heard Tyler call back to her "Bye." Nicole turned and waved to him. Then the three were soon joined outside the school with Alejandro. They made their way across the playground to where they could see their uncle Linc was waiting for them.
