The summer break keepsake

The letter S for... (21)

Stella's POV

Well the night we had all been counting the days down for had finally arrived, it was the last day of school before the Christmas holidays, which also meant tonight was the night of the winter ball, and it was all anyone would talk about.

We had obviously let everyone know me and Kelly would be attending and also let it be know that we would be revealing the gender of our baby tonight too, we was still dead set on using the colour of my dress be the reveal not that anyone knew that's how we would be revealing it.

Kelly had also ordered himself a 3 piece light grey suite with a light pink tie that matched the colour of my dress, I haven't actually seen him in it yet as he went and got it with his dad, but I'm definitely looking forward to seeing him in it, I bet he scrubs up well.

I went and had the dress fitted to my size a couple of days ago, it didn't need taking in much as my bump had grown a lot bigger over the past month, so Jennifer was picking it up for me today whilst we are at school.

"Come on tell me...I'm your best friend" I hear Gabby say beside me as we walk down the halls to our next class, from the moment she knew that we had found out what we were having, she kept trying to get me to tell her. "no, you can wait to see like everyone else, it's not long now" I tell her as we reach my locker.

"You're no fun" she says leaning against the locker beside mine I look at her and roll my eyes as I swap my books out and then close my locker. "So is your plus one still Matt Casey?" I ask her as we both start heading to our next class "of course, he message me just actually saying he's picked up his suit, we're going with the colour red, what about you" she asks me as I hit her arm.

"You really think I'd fall for that" I tell her as she groans and links her arm with mine "damn it, thought I had you there" she says as we both laugh.

Once we make it to our next class I sit down at my desk and place my books on the desk, feeling a hand run across my back as I look up and see Kelly has now arrived and taken his seat next to me "hey you, how was your morning classes?" I ask him since we barely have the same lessons now he has his own schedule "boring...we had a surprise test thrown at us first thing" he says as he places his books down.

"Ooh that's rough, all my classes have been pretty fun if that helps" I tell him with a slight chuckle as he huffs a little before leaning over and kissing me "hows my girls" he whispers as he runs his hand over my bump "we're even better now you're here" I tell him kissing him again.

"Okay class settle down..." I hear our teacher say as he places his laptop down at the front to connect it to the board "I know you're all pretty excited for the winter ball and the Christmas holidays, so I've decided there's no point trying to get you're attention to teach boring history so how about we do some observational learning today, not that I think youl learn anything from a film but whatever, so without further discussion let me introduce you to one of the best Christmas films ever made" he says pausing to build up suspense as everyone looks at him and waits for him to announce the film

"Miracle on 34th street" he says as everyone cheers "and it's not the black and white one don't worry, I know you kids couldn't even imagine how TVs used to only be black and white so let that be your lesson for today and think about how times have changed" he says setting the film up on his laptop and making sure it's connected to the board

"oh I love that film" I say as I look at Kelly "never watched it" he says as I gasp "but it's a classic" I tell him as he shrugs "still never seen it" he says as I rest my head on his shoulder "well I'll think you'll love it" I tell him as the teacher shuts all the blinds on the windows and dims the lights before he starts the film.
