Hiya guys! I just put up my christmas tree, so I thought I would write a little christmas instalment of this story. So this is Charlie, with an addition of Aylin. Enjoy!
Bah humbug. Life is so dull sometimes, I had no idea. I know what I need to do. Groggily, I wake up and rub my tired eyes. Slowly (but surely, may I add) I change and brush my teeth. I know there is no real point in battling with my hair; it's a lazy Monday and I'm not going out. Also, it's just too much hassle. It's Monday, come on! After eating a mediocre breakfast, I channel hop for about forever. I can't put it off any longer. I'll go eat a sandwich first though.
The Christmas tree. The most daunting yet exciting start to the joyous month. But when you are putting it up alone, it's kind of depressing. For the first time since I got my own flat, I've bought a DIY tree. I have to put it all together. After about a billion years of trying to out it together, I give up. Instead, I go out to the shopping centre to do some last minute shopping.
When I arrive, no one really cares. Everyone is just rushing around manically, choosing some completely irrelevant present for family and close ones. The novelty of the Christmas music has no effect. Aylin. I miss her like crazy. Currently, she's off in Turkey and won't be back until the new year. I feel kinda lost without her. I need her here. Now.
After trolling some pound shops, I come to a huge jewellers. Casually, I swagger inside, peering into the huge glass containers. In the farthest corner of the shop, I find the perfect engagement ring. I have to get it, for her. I know it's sort of spontaneous but that's me all over. I mean, I could propose on new years day! I mean, I'll never get another chance. Compared to everyone I know, I'm the meaningless speck in the group. So I buy it, for however much it costs. I don't care, all I care about is that, in eleven days, I get a yes.
When I get home the door is unlocked. Immediately, I get freaked. Burglar? Police? Crazed fan? Once I enter however, the anxious feeling slips away as I hear a beautiful humming in the living room. As if I'm sleepwalking, I drag my feet into the living room. There, standing before me, is the girl I have loved since I first saw her. Behind her, is a perfectly assembled and decorated tree, with other decorations strewn around the room. My eyes lock with her beautiful deep brown ones. Red hair, heavenly smile and swag for days.
And that terrible day turned into one of the best ones of my life. Christmas has come early and my little house is now a home. Finally.
