The night before the holidays!
Chapter 32: Winter's Eve
As nightfall comes along, everyone was excited to see what tomorrow will bring and the holidays approaching quickly...most of them were too excited to sleep and Max looks up at the window, watching the snow fall on the entire Valley and it's considered one of the favorite things he likes to do nowadays and he just stood there in the dark.
"Hey, Max...what you doing up?"
Max turns around to see Arizona standing there and he replied, "Couldn't sleep."
Arizona could tell that Max is too excited about the holidays coming up and he stood next to him and said, "I know how you feel. It's the first time Musaki and I will celebrate the holidays here in our new home. I never thought something like this would come along...but I'm actually glad it did."
Max felt the same and he said, "I'm really glad you're living here, Arizona. I've always wanted you to stay here since we first met."
"I know...and now we get a chance to. I promise you...we'll make each second worth it." Arizona added.
Max smiled at that and he nuzzled Arizona's side with a gentle purr while Arizona hugged him, letting out a small whimper and nuzzled him back and he said, "Let's head to bed, little buddy."
"Okay." Max replied, as he climbed on Arizona's back.
Both brothers walked upstairs to their bedrooms as soon as the snow gently fell down outside, hinting that it's gonna be a wonderful holiday for the entire Bushido-Akio family.
Come next chapter...the day is here!
