Merry Christmas Sk8 Boi and Yale Girls

"What do you want for Christmas Em?" I asked while trying to think about what to get her since the holiday was only a month away and I knew how much Emily loved Christmas; it was her favourite holiday. We had already set the Christmas lights up inside and out, the whole house was covered with Christmas decoration and I don't know how bad my room at home had been cover in Christmas decoration as well. Emily looked up from her Christmas colouring, Emily is a real child at heart and I found it really adorable, sweet and cute all at the same time.

Emily said "All I need for Christmas is you Aria."

"Well I can't really wrap myself up, with a bow on top and sit under your tree until Christmas time."

"If you did, I would want to unwrap you way before Christmas time and I don't think you can breathe in Christmas wrapping paper."

"Is that your way of telling me you'd miss me?"

"Absolutely," I smiled over at Emily as she return to her Christmas colouring.

The next day at the brew I was sitting drinking coffee with Hanna and Spencer, Emily was at the school practicing she had big meet this coming week that would hopefully get Emily a scholarship in spots at Yale. I had already been accept into Yale on an Art and English scholarship, I still wasn't sure on which way I'd take my life but college was about finding yourself and who you really are. Emily and I had begun dating during the summer just before senior year for both of us to start with the girls away most summer visiting family, it gave us a lot of time to just spend together. We'd go on picnic's, to the movies, shopping at the mall doing a little homework, going to the pool or a trips to the beach.

One day we had end up taking a road trip to a beach in Philly together and decided to camp there for at least two day if not more, we took turns driving and playing DJ. It was a very fun journey especially since Emily and I had the same tastes in music, so there wasn't much complaining, but what made the weekend even great was we shared a kiss. It was late at night, freezing cold being right on the beach with the sea breeze air wasn't making me any less cold. Even building a fire and sitting as close as I possible could, I remember Emily taking off her jacket and wrapping it around me. The jacket had Emily scent all over it, which helped in warming up but I still felt like an ice cube. When Emily had sat back down extremely close to me, she wrapped her arms around me and pulled me in close to her nice warm body.

With Emily's arms around me I started to warm up, when I had looked up at Emily I saw the reflection of the fire in her chocolate brown eyes. I'd remember what happened in the next five minutes for the rest of my life because when Emily had turned to look at me, I kissed her with no warning; I had just gone for it. When Emily had gotten over the shock of me kissing me, she started to kiss me back and we had a very heat make-out session; the best one I'd ever had. Emily had pulled away, apologise before standing up from the sand and making the way into our tent. I had to put the fire out first but when I joined Emily inside the tent she was already asleep, or was faking it because she didn't want to talk to me.

The next morning I had woken to find Emily already out of the tent and the sound of sizzling and after changing into my bathers with a top over top I made my way out of the tent. Seeing Emily over the camp stove with wet hair and in her own bathers, told me she had already been for a swim and was now cooking breakfast. Emily acted like nothing had happened; serving me some breakfast and we made a small conversation over it. I cleaned up everything before stripping my shirt off and making my way down to the waterfront, I had been floating in the ocean until a big wave of water splashed me. When I wiped the water out of my eyes, I looked to see Emily retreating form and went after her. We have a massive water fight, splashing water at each other, dunking each other into the water or picking one another up and dropping them off our back.

At the moment I was currently on Emily's back she was dragging me through the water, making sudden turns here and there that would make me squeal in laughter. When Emily looked back at me we both had these big smiles on our face and I leant forward to kiss her, but she pulled away and let go of my body and made her way back into the beach. Following out after her, I grabbed my towel from the sand and wrapped it around me; Emily had done the same and was barely looking at me. We did eventually talk, Emily said ii was just confused because we had been spending a lot of time together and feeling annoyed at Emily I kissed her and said I wasn't confused, I knew what I wanted. We had spent two extra days at the beach, just to spend extra time together alone and one our last night at the beach we were both ready to have our first time together; sexually.

"Aria," I heard Spencer say while Hanna was waving a hand in front of my face.

Snapping out of my thought, Hanna asked "Where'd you go?"

"Sorry, I was just thinking," I replied with a smile on my face.

Spencer asked "What about?"

I answered with "The week Emily and I went to the beach in Philly."

"The week you got together?" Hanna asked and I nodded my head, I smile at the memory.

Hanna asked "Why are you thinking about that?"

I responded with "I'm just trying to think of what to get Emily for Christmas, it's our first Christmas together as a couple and I want to get her something special and meaningful."

"That's understandable but you might be overthinking things just a little. When you think of Emily, what do you think about?" Spencer asked.

While thinking about Emily, Hanna said "Her childish nature," I smiled at Hanna's answer.

"When I think about Emily, I think about how caring and giving she is to others; whether she knows them our not doesn't matter, she'd do anything for others."

Spencer said "Okay, now Emily won't care about what you give her as long as it comes from is all that matters; she loves you." I nod my head slowly as I start to rethink what to get her, I smiled when the perfect idea came to my head.

Hanna asked "What did you come up with?"

I replied with "You'll just have to see on the day," I shrugged. We had all arranged to sleepover at Spencer's house out on the barn on Christmas Eve, we'd eat food and watch stacks of Christmas movies. We'd all decided to get everyone a gift and not just our partner, which we'd put under the tree that Spencer and I had put up, as well as decorating the whole barn in Christmas decoration; there was even a reef on the barn's door and lights set up outside. At midnight we'd exchange gifts, taking it in turns handing out our gifts and just celebrating the Christmas spirt together. Afterwards we'd watch a few more Christmas movies or listen to Christmas music before going to sleep, because we all have busy Christmas day with our respective families. The day after Christmas we were going back to Spencer's house which would be empty and we were going to have a family dinner, I was extremely excited about spending time with my friends.

With two trips into Philly I was able to buy Emily's Christmas present and it had turned out great, I was extremely excited to see Emily's face when she saw my present. Emily pulled up in front of Spencer's house, it was Christmas Eve and I was beyond excited and I was having trouble controlling my excitement; as was Emily. When she'd pick up from my house that night, she wore this massive smile and was wearing the dorkiest but cutest Christmas sweater. We were all instructed to wear Christmas sweaters, Emily's was more out there than mine was but they sort of match each other's perfectly.

Hopping out of the car, we made our way to the boot of the car where we had managed to squish everything inside, I had my sleeping over bag and two bags full of present and Emily had the same amount of bags. Placing my sleepover bag on my shoulder and pulling my present bags out of the car. After Emily had gotten her stuff out, she closed the boot and we made our way to the backyard of the Hastings house. The barn door was opened already with Christmas music blaring from inside, I let Emily walk in first before me since I had already seen the inside from helping Spencer setting it up. Watching Emily's face light up with even more excitement, I saw Spencer and Toby were already inside the barn; which just left Hanna and Caleb to come.

"This is incredible," Emily said voice full excitement. There were inside lights set up going around the room, the tree was set up in back corner decorate with present underneath and lights twinkling. You could just hear the fireplace roaring over the Christmas music which was set up on the TV and playing through speakers, watching movies tonight was going to be amazing. There was a big countdown clock set up behind the TV; it was counting down the hours, minutes and seconds until Christmas. On a big table there was a Christmas table cloth covering the table and on there was different food, somewhere hot and somewhere cold; they're favourites of each of us.

Seeing Toby and Spencer's costumes mad me smile, Toby was Rudolph the red nosed reindeer and Spencer was an elf. Toby was wearing all brown clothes with a red nose and on top of his head he had a hat with antlers, on Toby's feet he wore brown shoes meant to be hooves. Spencer was wearing an elf shirt, which had Santa's little helper on it and screwdrivers and things you'd see on an elf. Her pants were green coloured tights, on her she had a green and red striped hat, that point upwards with no creases in the hat and on her feet she wore green boots. I was about to question them when I heard the sound of walking, turning I saw Caleb and Hanna had arrived, Emily and I moved further into the barn; giving them room to enter the barn.

When they did I smiled at their costumes Caleb was dressed up as Santa himself and Hanna was of course Mrs Claus. Caleb wore this big puffy Santa jacket red and white of course, with a black belt around his waist holding up his pants; which were the same colour as his jacket. He had black boots on his feet, a Santa's hat on his head but you could see his black hair around his hate and Caleb also had white attached beard on his face. Hanna was wearing a jacket like Caleb, it was longer than his though going all the way down to her feet and she had a belt around her waist too; unlike Caleb's jacket though her's had a hoodie which was currently pulled up at the moment. Underneath her jacket you could see this beautiful, elegant red dress, black heel boots on her feet and round glasses which sat on her nose.

I asked "What's all this? I thought you said we were all wearing Christmas sweaters," I looked at Spencer who had a big smile on her face.

Spencer replied with "I did but I thought this would add to the fun."

Emily asked "What are Aria and I?"

Hanna replied with "You're the children," I nodded my head and watched as a big smile came upon Emily's face and seeing her smile brought one to my face too.

I say looking at Spencer "You are forgiven this time," Emily, Caleb, Hanna and I all moved to put our present underneath the tree. Looking around the room, I saw Spencer had brought three mattress into the barn, one for each other the couples to share and we were all fine with that. Taking Emily's sleepover bag from her shoulder, I went to the mattress closet to the food table and placed our bags down on top of it; claiming the bed as ours. Toby and Spencer's stuff had already been set up on the bed next to our, which was in the middle and left Hanna and Caleb with the bed closet to the barn door. Spencer moved over to the barn door and closed it, I saw Emily make her way to the food table and joined her there.

I heard Caleb say "This place looks amazing," I heard others approving.

Placing my head on top of Emily's shoulder, I asked "See any food you like?"

"Yeah, I'll definitely be coming back for second, thirds even," I realised a breath in relief. I had been in charge of creating the foods list, but Spencer went to get it all and make it; since she had the most free-time. I hoped I hadn't gone overboard with food and everyone had something they liked on this table, I would be devastated if the others had nothing they liked on this table. We had all been given jobs, I had been the food list and helping Spencer set the room up, Spencer was cooking the food and setting up the room.

Toby had been in charge of getting the music and bringing only Christmas music; since that's the holiday we are celebrating. Like I had done with food, Toby had created a list with our favourite Christmas songs, so there were Christmas songs we all liked and I noticed there was a section between the beds and tree/fireplace which had been set so we could all dance. Caleb was in charge of bring stacks of Christmas movies, he didn't need to create a list he just need to borrow our Christmas movies we own and buying or downloading new ones or ones we didn't have.

Hanna and Emily had teamed up together to buy the alcohol, we weren't old enough to drink yet but Spencer's parents were actually okay with it as long as we didn't over drink. Emily and Hanna had brought the alcohol over yesterday, it was in the fridge and in buckets that had ice in them and sheet underneath the buckets to catch the drips of water when the ice would melt. The six of us made a great team when it came to celebrating together and making sure everyone was going to have a good time tonight.

The night had been loads of fun, eating food when we wanted to, having a few drinks, talking, dancing, laughing and watching movies together; it was amazing. When Spencer saw there was only a minute until Christmas she paused the movie we were currently watching which was, Santa Claus 3. We had already watched the other two and a few others, in the second movie Toby, Spencer, Caleb and Hanna had all gotten out of there Christmas costumes and into Christmas sweater. Hanna and Caleb actually had matching Christmas sweaters, while Spencer and Toby wore different sweaters. During the final minute we counted down while holding each other's hand, the excitement in the room could be felt everywhere.

We all said together "3…2…1! Merry Christmas!" we shouted before turning to our partners for a kiss.

Hanna shouts "Yay! Presents time! We're going first," she point to herself and Caleb before pushing him towards the tree. Emily and I moved to sit on the couch which was close to Hanna and Spencer's mattress; it was so we were closer for the handing out of presents. Caleb picked up all of his presents and handed them out to each person, but kept Hanna's present in his hand and commands us to open our presents. The four of us tear open our present not needing to be told twice, Spencer was given a Harvard university sweater that had white H, the rest of the sweater was red and she was also given a Harvard hat with the white H as well. Spencer was heading to Harvard next year; I wasn't looking forward to saying goodbye to everyone when it came time to leave.

Toby was given a voucher which would gave him the chance to drive around a V8 race course himself and then do a hot lap with a professional racer, something he'd always wanted to do. Looking across at Emily, in her hand she held this pillow but on the pillow was picture of her and I. We were kissing in front of the mirror at my house; Emily had snapped the picture and Caleb somehow got it.

Finishing unwrapping my present, I found a grey coloured shirt and opening it up; I smiled at it. There was a picture of Emily and I kissing, the same picture that was on Emily's pillow and above the picture it had the words 'Yale bound' and then underneath the picture it had the words 'Emria' which was our couple name; Hanna's idea. The four of us all said our thank-yous and watched as Caleb handed Hanna a small sized present wrapped. Watching

Hanna unwrap the present to reveal and white box, opening the box Hanna pulled out a gold chain necklace that had a silver love heart and engraved onto the heart was C+H=Forever. Caleb had definitely done a good job with presents, getting everyone something special to them and I couldn't wait to see what everyone else got. When Hanna was able to pull herself way from kissing Caleb and got him to put the necklace on her, she stood up from her spot and went to the tree to get her parents. Handing each of us her present but held onto Caleb's present and we all unwrapped her present, I noticed that Emily's present was the biggest.

Spencer's present from Hanna revealed to be a photo album and inside of it were picture of her and Toby together, it was really cute and thoughtful of Hanna. Toby was given a new camera lens, which would zoom in more than the one he currently had; Toby had discovered his passion for photography just this year. With Spencer going to Harvard and Toby not wanting to lose her, he decided to apply for a smaller university in the same state as Harvard and would get a degree in photography.

I smiled at Emily's present it was this huge white polar bear that was wearing a blue shirt with the word 'Yale' on the shirt and a blue hat on his head, it was very cute and adorable; especially when Emily hugged it. Hanna had gotten me a heat shape locket and inside the locket was a picture of Emily and I, we were snuggled up smiling when this photo was taken by Toby. We all thanked Hanna for our thoughtful presents and watched her give Caleb his present. It was a medium size present and underneath the wrapping revealed a photo frame of a photo of them two together, with forever written above the photo.

Spencer stood up and moved across to the tree to bring her presents out from underneath the tree and the other present that were there, she handed them all out to us and along with the present came a hug; but she kept Toby's. Shredding all the paper off, I saw Caleb was given a new black leather jacket since his other one had rip, looked faded and became too small from him to wear. Hanna present revealed to be a new designer handbag, one that was sure to have come off the runway.

Turning to look at Emily to see her holding a box, the picture on the box showed it was lava lamp; Emily had been wanting one for years but her Mum wouldn't let her get one, reading the box I saw it was going to be red and blue. My present revealed to be a stack of CD, all where from my favourite artist Lady Gaga. Saying our thank-yous to Spencer, we watch her give Toby his parents and as he unwrapped his present I felt Emily drop her had onto my shoulder. Underneath the wrapping paper showed I knew quilt cover, a queen bed size quilt cover and when Toby turned it around to show us, it had photos of him and Spencer covering it with red background colour; we all knew that was Toby's favourite colour.

Toby placed his present into his stack of gifts he had received and stood up to get his present from underneath the tree and handed them out to all of; keeping Spencer's present with him. I saw that Toby's gift for Hanna and Caleb was a combine present, same with mine and Emily and they were the same size. Watching as the wrapping paper was removed from Hanna and Caleb's present, found at big picture frame that had collage of photos of them.

Removing the wrapping paper from or gift we found the same size picture frame and inside the frame it had picture of us and our group of friend; it was very beautiful. After saying our thank-yous to Toby, he hand Spencer her present which was in an envelope. Spencer opened the envelope and we watched her read over what was inside before squealing in joy and hugging Toby. When she came back to earth, she showed us two plane ticket to Paris with a hotel booked and places for them to go and visit before they were need back in the US to go to University.

When everyone was looking at Emily and I, we realised it was our turn and looking at Emily who said "You go first," I nodded my head and stood up from my spot on the couch and gathered up my presents. Handing everyone their presents, giving them hugs and wishing them a Merry Christmas; like everyone else I kept Emily's present to myself. I watched as everyone opened their present for Hanna I got her a new pair of designer sunglasses, they were black. Caleb was hard buying for but I had managed to find this sign that said 'Man Cave' so when him and Hanna move to New York he can hang it up somewhere.

For Spencer I had bought her an Eiffel tower necklace, Toby had told me what his gift was because he needed to know when the perfect time to go would be and I thought this would be a good idea. Toby had been semi-hard to buy for but being Emily's best friend I had a little more insight into what he likes and I was able to find him the perfect gift. I watched as he shred through the wrapping paper to reveal to the other a motor speed boat, Emily told me they used have one as a kid until it stopped working and float to the bottom of the lake and they could never find it.

"This is unreal, thank-you," Toby said and the others followed with their thank-you, I smiled at them and told them they were welcome. Turning to face Emily I handed Emily her present and she pulled me in for a kiss, I smiled into the kiss and I had the biggest smile when I pulled back. Watching Emily as she unwrapped her present, she kept glancing up at me with a smile and I'd smile back at her every time. With the paper removed from Emily's present it revealed to everyone else and Emily to be two shirts, one was blue and the other was white.

Picking the first one up, I grab Emily's hand and say "Stop, follow me," I took Emily's hand and lead her into the bathroom away from the others.

"Why are we in here?"

"I wanted you to see them without the others and I thought we could wear them."

"What are you talking about Aria?"

"Just have a look," I nod my head for her to take a look. Emily placed the shirts on the cupboard of the basin, she held the blue shirt up and in white writing it said 'Aria's No. 1' it was written really big on the front of the shirt. When Emily turned the shirt around it had 'Team Montgomery' and the number '7' on the back written in white as well; 7 is my favourite number and blue is also my favourite colour.

"This is incredible."

Smiling, I replied with "I'm glad you like it, look at the next one," I nodded my head at the other shirt and Emily handed me the blue shirt to pick the white one up. Unfolding the white shirt on the front of the shirt, it said in blue 'Emily's No. 1' Emily smiled at me before turning it around to show 'Team Fields' and the number 18 written on the back of the shirt.

"These are amazing, Aria."

"I'm glad you think so, it took a conversation with Spencer and Hanna for me to work out the perfect present to get you."

"Aria just having you in my life is enough," Emily smiled at me before leaning forward and crushing our lips together.

Hearing a knock on the door and Hanna voice shout "Hurry up you two!" always impatience Hanna was.

I asked "Would you like to wear them?" Emily nodded her head and we exchanged shirts. I watched as Emily lift up her Christmas sweater, as she lift her sweater of her singlet underneath rose up and I got to get Emily's toned stomach a sight I'd never get sick of seeing.

"You better change," I hear Emily say snapping me out of staring at her stomach.

"Sorry," Emily smiled at me and put her shirt on, it fitted her perfectly. Stripping myself of my Christmas sweater I could feel Emily's eyes watching me closely, at the start it use to make me blush every time I felt Emily's eyes on my body but now I just love it; because it shows me how much she loves me. I didn't have a singlet underneath my Christmas sweater, only my bra and I allowed Emily to stare at my body for a while before pulling my new shirt on; I already knew it fitted me perfectly.

Emily said "They look amazing on us," Emily stepped to stand next to my side and we look at ourselves in the mirror and I couldn't help but agree with her.

"You ready to head out there?" I asked and Emily nodded her head. Opening the bathroom door, I took Emily's hand and lead her out of the bathroom and back over to where the others were sitting. I was surprised to see Emily's present under the tree, I thought Hanna was going to hand them out for and just being impatience. Revealing our shirts to the girls, they smiled at me and Emily and turning around to show them the back of the shirts.

Spencer said "Aria those shirt are amazing."

"Yeah, they look great on you two," Hanna added with the two boys nodding their head agreeing with the girls.

Smiling, I say "Thanks," I sit back down on the couch while Emily head over to the tree and pick up all the remaining present which were all hers. Watching Emily hand out all the present and wishing them all Merry Christmas, when Emily sat down empty handed I panicked because I thought she had forgotten but Emily just smiled at me. Looking at the other opening their gifts, I see Toby remove his wrapping paper away first and I see a blue watch that had an engraving on the back saying 'forever friend' and it's very beautiful.

Spencer present revealed to be a silver box, when Spencer lifts the lid of the box a ballerina popped up and the song 'London Bridge is falling down' began to play. Spencer turns into face it towards everyone and on the bottom of the box there was an engraving; which read 'You'll never be like the London Bridge, you are much stronger than you'll probably ever realise. Turning to see Hanna had finished unwrapping her present to see her holding a snow globe, she had shook it a few times and when she turned it to us; I saw the word 'Hannily' inside of it.

Looking at Caleb to see him holding a travel mug with four photos on it, one side had a picture of just him and that was the handle side. Next to that one was a picture of him and Emily together smiling, next one was of Hanna and Caleb together cuddling and in the next one was a picture of all six of us together. With all four of their present, I saw Emily had put a lot of thought into all their presents and made the special to that person.

Emily then said "So that's present done then," everyone looked at Emily shocked.

"Umm…Em, what about Aria?" Spencer and Hanna said at the same time.

"Right, how could I forget? Stay here, I'll be back," I nodded my head and watch as Emily left the barn all together. I looked at the others shock and they had the same look on their faces, we decided to wait for Emily before jumping to any conclusions. Emily walked back into the barn with a wrapped present in her hand, I notice it was a box shape and Emily handed it to me while she dug something out of her pocket; she pulls out a folded up envelope and hands it to me.

I asked "Which do I open first?"

Emily sat down and replied with "The box," she took the envelope back and I couldn't help but look at her confused.

"Trust me, you'll love it," Emily said with a smile on her face. Trusting her smile, I started unwrapping the present and found a brown coloured box underneath. Pulling the sticky tape back from the box, I opened it up and had a look inside. Inside the box I found all this Yale merchandise, two of everything which was flags, teddy bears, mugs, shirts, hats, books, pens, beanies, jumpers, stickers, wrist bands, drink bottle, scarfs and everything else they have for merchandise. Looking at Emily confused, I hadn't taken anything out of the box and before I could ask Emily she handed me the envelope and told me to open it. Looking at the front of the envelope I saw it was to Emily, turning the envelope around and starting to open it. I saw paper inside the envelope and pulling them out, Emily took the envelope while I unfolded the letter and started to read it,

Dear Miss Emily Fields,
We are very excited to tell you, you have been accept in the school of Yale, we are very proud to have you join our school. You'll be welcome to the freshman's swimming team with open arms, your record is amazing and we can't wait to help you excel further with your swimming. You are welcome to sign-up for as many classes as you like but you'll be studying for your bachelor in fitness & health and your bachelor in English. Thank-you very much for choosing the school of Yale and we look forward to having you.
Kind regards,
Peter Garcia.

When I finished reading the letter, I read it again before squealing in excitement; which made Emily laugh. Pulling Emily in for hug, I was jumping up and down in excitement and went back to looking over the stuff in the box.

Spencer asked "What did she get you?" I handed the letter down to Hanna and Caleb and the box of merchandise down to Toby and Spencer.

Hanna said "Oh my god Emily, this is incredible."

"Yeah, it really is but why are you getting a bachelor in English?" Toby asked and I must admit I was confused why she was getting that as well.

Emily replied with "I want to keep my option open and try something new," I nodded my head and wonder if the fact I was getting my bachelor in English as well had anything to do with it.

Spencer said "So you two are heading to New Haven, you two are heading to New York and we're heading to Massachusetts."

Hanna replied with "Yep, we are all growing up," Emily, Hanna, Spencer and I all looked at each other and this sudden feeling of sadness washed over us all. Emily stood up from the couch, she grabbed something out of the box she gave us and I watched her put a Yale hat on her head and then one on my head. Instead of sitting back down, I watched as Emily moved over to the radio and we saw her changing CD's and picking a song.

Emily paused the music before it even played and said "We've all been through a lot together, through break-up, to get back together. Through the good times and the bad, we've stuck it through together. We've grown from children playing in the par to just big kids still playing in the park today. From the days of hide and seek, tag and chase-y to the days of make-up, boyfriends/girlfriends and discovering who were are as teenagers. We've seen it all together, through our own eyes and through each other's eyes. We've watched each other grow up and become who we are today, these are the memories I am holding onto and these are the moments I chose to remember. We've been through high school together, we survive. We got through senior year together, we graduate together and we are still untied to this day. Forever I'll remember you girls, until I'm old and grey, losing my hearing; I'll still remember my best friends and all the crazy adventure we went on. Yes we are about to go our separate ways and probably won't see each other for month, but we won't stop worrying about each other and wondering if they're okay; that will stay with us. We've got tonight to live for and the rest of our lives, so now while this song play I want you all to come up here and dance. Dance like you've never dance before, dance like no one is watching you and let's celebrate the good and the bad times we've shared and get ready for the future." As the song began to play Hanna, Spencer and I all recognised the tune straight away and Emily had the biggest smile on her face; it definitely wasn't a Christmas song. The three of us stood up from our spots and run over to where Emily was standing waiting for us to join her.

The four of us sang at the top of our lungs "He was a boy; she was a girl can I make it any more obvious? He was punk; she did ballet what more can I say? He wanted her and she'd never tell, secretly she wanted him as well. And all of her friends stuck up their nose; they had a problem with his baggy clothes!" Back in middle school and start of high school this was our jam, always playing it at every sleepover over and over again and always singing at the top of our lungs even though none of us could sing.

We swayed with the music, eventually I wrapped my arms around Emily's neck and we swayed together and the two girls got their boyfriends up and dancing. The song continued to play, I sang bits and pieces but I just wanted to enjoy dancing with Emily and being with my best friends. Halfway through the song we all changed partner, and kept switching to different people throughout the rest of the song. At the end of the school the six of us all fell to the ground in heap and out of breath, there were a few giggle here and there but we just mainly trying to catch our breath.

"I'm going to miss you guys," Hanna said. I nodded my head and agreed with her, I didn't know what life was going to be like without these four other people in my life on an everyday bases.

Toby said "We can't waste the time then, we should spend as much time together as we can between now and the time it's time to say bye for now."

Caleb added "And maybe make a promise to return here for Christmas and catch up."

Spencer said "That's a good idea," Emily, Hanna, Toby and I nodded our heads agreeing with them and we made a promise to return here for Christmas again next year. We all eventually got up from where we were laying, Caleb stopped the music from playing, Emily and I went back into the bathroom to change back into our Christmas sweaters, I think Spencer and Hanna were bringing some food over to the bed for us all to share and Toby poured everyone a drink. We settled back down to watch Santa Claus 3 again, I laid my head down onto Emily shoulder as she continued eating pretzel stick; they were her favourite thing to eat at Christmas time.

Every now and then Emily gave me same, I wasn't really hungry but I didn't want to term Emily down. After Santa Claus 3 finished, Spencer put Santa Paws in and it was a sleep movie. We all got settled and all drifted off to sleep in our own time, Christmas day had only just come and we all had busy day ahead. This Christmas was definitely being very magically and special because I spent it with the people I loved, and the women I loved.

The End.
