"Dad, can you play some Christmas music?" I ask as I come and sit down at the table. He nods and goes over to the black radio and goes to the Christmas station.

"This is my favorite time of the year, I love Christmas music." I say.

"Where's Rachel?" I ask, hoping maybe she went to Brazil to visit the family she has there.

"She's still sleeping." My dad says. I stand up.

"I'm going to go get dressed for the day." I say.

"Okay, what are you doing today?" He asks me. I shrug.

"I'm about to text the squad." I say. He laughs and I go upstairs.

I'm kind of debating on weather I should take a shower or not. It's not for the shower today.

I push my closet open and pick out a white shirt that has a knot on the side, some leggings, white nike air forces, and a flannel. I know it's cold, don't question what I'm wearing.

I grab my phone and text in the group chat.

I put my phone on the nightstand and go in my bathroom to do my makeup and hair. Instead of doing something fancy with my hair I just put it in a bun.

I sat down on my bed and waited for Johnson to come and pick me up. I peek out my window when I hear a car door shut. I see his car and I grab my purse and keys off of the floor.

"Bye dad! Jack is here!" I say before walking out of my house and meeting him at my garage.

"Let's go on an adventure." He says. I laugh.

"I like your scarf." I say.

"Thanks, my mom bought it because me equals no money." He says, making me laugh even more.

"That's funny cause I remember you telling my that you bought a watch for an early Christmas present." I say.

"That's why I have no money." He says as he opens my car door. M

"Thanks fam, you a real one." I say. He starts the car and turns on the radio and Christmas music instantly plays.

"Yes!" I say while turning the volume up louder.

"This is my favorite version of this song." I say. It's all I want for Christmas by Mariah Carey.

"I know, I enjoy her music." He says.

"Sometimes I wish I could sing like her." He says. I laugh.

"Especially on emotions." I say.

"You make me feel, so, good!" He sings trying to hit his non existent high notes.

"I support you on that." I say with a chuckle. He smiles and we pull into a restaurant.

"I'm hungry and I hope you didn't eat." He says while turning off the car.

"I didn't." I say.

"That's great." He says. I chuckle and get out of the car.

"Holy fuck, I didn't realize how cold it is." I say. He laughs.
