It has been four months since I arrived at college. I'm enjoying it, but I miss Eddie more than I can explain. Even though I've been so busy with classes, I still think about him every single day. But... I get to see him soon.

I have decided to fly home for Christmas early to surprise my family and friends, nobody knows. I miss everyone so much, and I can hardly wait to see them again.

I'm packing my bags when I hear the phone ring. I walk to it and answer. "Hello" I say.

"Hi honey how are you?" Chimes my mom on the other end.

"Hey mom! I'm good. Just getting in the Christmas spirit." I say.

"Oh I'm gonna miss you so much this year, we all will, every time your brother has friends over they ask about you." She refers to my brother Dustin and his friends. One of those friends is Eddie.

"Well hopefully I can get there sometime soon." I lie. I'm smiling on the other end. "Hopefully. Oh honey I have to go your brother needs a ride to hellfire." She says. We say our goodbyes and I get back to packing. After all, my flight is tomorrow morning, and tomorrow is Christmas morning.

I wake up at 2:00 in the morning to go to the airport, I hate getting up that early, but it's worth it. I check in to my flight and sit in the waiting area. I can't believe I'm only hours away from seeing everyone.

My flight boards and I immediately fall asleep when it takes off. The flight is about 5 hours so I have lots of time to sleep.

When I wake up we are only an hour away from landing in Hawkins. My heart swells with excitement. I put on my headphones and listen to music on my Walkman.

When we land I practically run off the plane and to the baggage pick up. I want to get home now. I don't want to wait any longer. The baggage takes about 20 minutes to start coming out. But when it does I grab mine and go. I flag down a taxi outside and hop in. "Where to?" The driver asks. I give him the address and we go.

I gave him an address that is a couple doors down from my house just so mom and Dustin wouldnt see me getting out of the car. I hop out of the car. "Thank you very much, Merry Christmas!" I say as I shut the door and set off down the road. I was practically hopping I was that excited. Finally I arrive at the front door. With a deep breath, I knock. I hear the footsteps from inside approaching the door. I can't wait. I don't want it wait another second. Finally, Dustin opens the door. His eyes widen.

"HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT." He screams jumping onto me for a hug.

"Dusty what's going- OH MY GOD!" My mom says as she comes around the corner. She runs to the door and joins the hug.

"Surprise!" I chime happily, I'm so happy to be home.

We all go inside, I'm hounded by questions like "what are you doing here?" And "I didn't know you were coming!" After i explain everything, Dustin looks like he has a realization. "Wait... does Eddie know you're home?" I shake my head. "Oh my god he's gonna lose his shit, we have to go see him, NOW!" Dustin spits out. I look to my mother to see if it's ok. She nods and me and Dustin take off out to the car...
