Picture on the side is a cover made by snowflake graphics.  I really like it and she's quick with her work.  Dedication to _darkaria for the amazing cover.

"Secret Santa time!"  We all turned our heads as Emily got our attention.  Zac was back at school and we were all catching up and talking about the up coming holidays.  Emily stood up with a small black bag in hand and waited for everyones attention.

"Thank you, now as you guys know Tric's Christmas party is this weekend and I think this would be a perfect year to do a secret Santa.  I have already written down everyone's names and put them in this little bag.  Now pass the bag around, choose a name, and if you get yourself put it back and choose another name."  She handed the bag to Rose first and we all started to choose names.

"The biggest rule is not to tell anyone who you have.  Everyday at lunch we'll go around and say something that we like so that the person that has you has an easier time buying a gift.  Maximum amount of money is $20."  The bag got to me and I looked away as I shoved my hand in scrambling up all the little pieces of paper.  I stopped and I pulled a name out.

Blake West

Oh this was going to be interesting.  I was completely unsure on what to get someone like Blake.  Luckily, I had Dylan to help me a little.  I could always ask Jayden but that seemed out of the question right now with our last time together.

"Who do you have?"  Dylan whispered in my ear as he tried to catch a glimpse of my paper.

"I can't tell you.  That's against the rules Tiger."  I crumpled the little piece of paper and shoved it into my backpack.  I finished off my lunch and took my tray up. 

When I got back everyone but Dylan had left.  I grabbed my bag as Dylan wrapped his arm around my shoulder and we walked out to our next class.  It had become a regular thing, Dylan and I, everyday at school I would finish lunch and after that Dylan would walk with me to our next classes.  No one bothered us anymore about maybe being a couple.  We were just best friends.

"So who do you have for secret Santa?" I asked as we got to my class.  He just looked down at me and shook his head.

"What makes you think I'm going to tell you since you didn't tell me."  I rolled my eyes and he smiled.  "Now go to class and I'll see you after school.  I'm still giving you a ride home right?" 

"Yes."  I walked away and into class waiting for it to start.  Luckily, school passed by pretty quickly after that.  Walking out to Dylan's car I noticed him talking to someone, a guy.  I couldn't see anything other than that because their back was towards me.  Dylan spotted me walking up.

"You ready to go?"   He yelled as I approached and I shouted yes back as I got to his car and settled into the passenger seat.  I noticed Dylan and the other person approach but I didn't pay much attention.  That was until Dylan climbed into the drivers seat and the other person put their hands on the window, that was rolled down.

"Hello Kylie."  I drew all of my attention to the deep voice that spoke, Jayden.  I guess today was my day for the West brothers.  First, I get Blake for Secret Santa and here was Jayden standing at the car door in all his glory.

"Hi Jayden."  He smiled down at me and I returned it being polite.  I could feel Dylan watching Jayden closely as Jayden watched me.

"Is your number still the same?"  Jayden asked.

"Yeah."

"Alright, Iʻll call you soon."  With that he waved good bye to Dylan and me and walked back to his car.  Dylan started the car up and gunned it out of the parking lot.
