After a year full of adventure, new experiences, hate, fights, etc., we finally arrived at Christmas, my second favorite time of the year! My friends and some parents are coming to stay with us, I haven't seen Aaron in two weeks, because he went to visit his grandma in France. I miss you so much

─ Oh Nat, your gift has arrived - Emma said entering my room

─ My new all star? - I asked looking at her

─ Something much better! - she said pulling me out of the room

We go down the stairs and when I get down there I come across none other than Aaron

─ Aaron!

─ Cher! - the boy said hugging me and then showering me with kisses

─ You spent two weeks in France and you no longer know how to speak my language? - I asked laughing

─ I needed to give you a nickname of our own, so I thought of Cher, did you like it? - my boyfriend asks hugging me again

─ I loved it! But I didn't think of any nickname for you - he said, lowering his head.

─ It's okay! - he said, placing his hand on my chin and lifting my head

─ I'm going to call you Love, it's cliché but it's because I love you so much - I said smiling and looking into my boy's blue eyes

─ Oh my god! My son-in-law has arrived! - my mother shouted, entering the room and hugging Aaron

─ Hi Liv - Aaron said hugging my mother

─ In a little while the Goldfarb's, the Friedman's, Rodriguez-Katz, Nikki, Tara, Kym, Anya, Megan and Mateo will arrive - my mother says running to the kitchen 'to finish preparing dinner

─ Do you need something mom?

─ No, my love, you can enjoy it and miss Aaron

─ Okay, thank you! - I hugged her and went up to my room

My boyfriend and I talked about what this time away from each other was like. He told me that his Grandma would come for New Year's, just to meet me. Aaron lived with his parents, I almost never went to his house because his parents were always fighting, that's why he always came here. After almost an hour of talking, Andy's family had finally arrived. Soon after, the rest of the guests arrived. My house wasn't very big, but we had a very big yard. Everyone sat down at the table and started to serve themselves. Mateo and Stacy were looking at each other and smiling, while Lydia and Andy were kicking each other under the table, you could tell they had become best friends who hate each other, Kym, Megan and Anya were talking about the week's shopping and Nikki and Tara were talking about school. Meanwhile at the adults' table they talked about their issues

─ Alright guys, who’s ready to open their presents? - Stacy's mother asked

─ Me! - we all screamed in euphoria

─ Please take it easy - my mother said seeing us all running to the decorated tree

We formed a circle, everyone opened their gifts, one at a time. The first was me. I got my long-awaited All star from Stranger Things and the purple and blue All star, from my mother and Emma, the last Harry Potter book that was missing from my collection, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, from Goldfarb's, a necklace with a purple petunia pendant, from my boyfriend, a high-top Vans, from Friedman's, a caramel puppy, a puppy that only exists exclusively in Brazil, donate Rodriguez-Katz, a new set of headphones, from Mateo and several bracelets, from Kym, Megan, Anya, Tara and Nikki. After me was Aaron, then Tara, Anya, Stacy, Kym, Megan, Lydia, Emma, Andy, Mateo and Nikki. For my boyfriend I gave a letter, a new video game and new Nike sneakers. To Tara I gave a friendship bracelet. Anya got a ring and the pen she wanted so much. Stacy got a purple All star, just like mine. Kym received a tiara and a necklace with a star pendant. For Megan I gave a box with some sweets. Lydia got her dream new polaroid camera. For Emma I gave a letter and new high heels. For Andy it was a new football and a new video game. Mateo got a flute, which he really wanted. And finally Nikki won three teddy bears and a two-liter bottle
