It was now the middle of December and snow was sticking to the ground , which made me and my sisters excited. It was our first Christmas in America. Well technically our first Christmas ever. Christmas wasn't widely celebrated in Japan along with a lot of American holidays.
I remember when I first spotted the snow on the ground when I woke up the next morning. I quickly ran to Yaten's room and shook her awake.
"Yaten! Wake up! It's snowing!" I said with excitement. She groaned , pulling the sleep mask from over her eyes and squinted at me."Seriously Seiya! What are you going on about?! What time is it anyway?" She asked me frowning.
"It's snowing outside." I said with a wide smile and she stared at me before smacking her hand down on the bed.
"Seriously! You woke me up for that?! I'm going back to sleep!" She said with attitude and pulled the sleep mask back over her eyes.
"Come on! It's out first time seeing snow, let's take advantage of it." I say pulling on her arm and she pulled away before hiding herself under the covers. I placed my hands on my hips and sighed, rolling my eyes.
"Fine. I'll try later." I say and walk out her room and headed to Taiki's. I knocked slightly before opening the door. Taiki was already awake at her computer. She turned to me when I walked in. "Hey did you see outside?" I asked as I sat on the edge of her bed."Yeah it's pretty isn't it?" She said looking at me with a smile and I nodded in agreement.
"Yes! I want to go outside in play in it like everyone does on TV." I say joking.
"I was thinking of going out in it too but only to observe." Taiki said looking backwards at her computer and I laughed.
"That's so like you. It's okay to say you want to enjoy it you know. Not everything is a teachable moment." I say and she chuckled .
"Noted." She just replied , clicking on things on her computer.
"What are you doing on there?" I asked trying to peek over her shoulder. Like me and Yaten . Taiki had a thing about personal space and privacy. Like the mother figure that she is , she would tell you what and why she needed space and privacy and usually by time she's done telling you , you're pretty much over why you came in her room in the first place.
"Just some gifts for our friends for Christmas. I have everyone besides Amy, Michiru, and Ruby." She said strolling through different objects.
"Well I figured Amy has similar tastes as you do, that's how I got hers and as for Ruby I can help with that since she is my girlfriend." I say with a smile. The thought still baffles me that she could be interested in me in that way.
"No thanks. I want to find them gifts myself but I'll let you know if I need help." She said to me.
"Okay well I'm gonna go back to my room." I say and she replied that she would be making breakfast soon. I came into my closet and picked out warm clothes to wear for my trip out side later, then sat on my couch and watched tv.
We convinced Yaten to come out with us along with Ruby who came over. We took pictures of us attempting to do typical things you see on Tv. We made snow angels , made a snowman though it was a small one and we attempted to catch snowflakes with our tongues but all that happened was bits of snow landing on our faces. While Taiki was being Yaten's cameraman as she posed in the snow, Ruby was standing next to me making footprints in the snow as I tried to think of something else to do before we went back inside.
A sly smile came to my lips as I bent down to pick up some snow. I stood back up and smashed the snow together in my hands as I looked at my sisters, debating which one I should hit first.
"What are you doing?" Ruby asked with a smile as she looked at me.
