Theme 124: Christmas

Sue Ellen's POV

I knew Brain didn't celebrate Christmas, but I did. He was happy to send me a gift across the Pacific, a small necklace that was gold with rubies. He'd give me the rest later, he promised in his his letter. I called him immediately.

"It's so beautiful, Brain. I'm going to give you my gift personally when we fly back in," I promised. He hoped it would work out this time, as did I. I wanted to have him in my arms again, feel his lips against mine. But most of all, I wanted to see him and not just his image. I wanted to see him in person.
