Chapter 21 (Silver POV)

Silver woke up on Monday morning excited. It was the day of the Christmas celebration at Woodward.

Maika had left early on Saturday, as not to get is major trouble. If they thought they were close before, they might have well been strangers. All of the walls Maika had up, blocking the wolf, were crumbled now; they could talk about anything. It was perfect.

The Christmas celebration was one of the biggest events at Woodward, next to prom and homecoming. Every class decorates a tree to represent the class as a whole. The seniors get a 12ft tree; the juniors get 11ft, sophomores 10ft and the freshmen 9ft. The homecoming representative or the queen places the big gold star on the top of their classes’ tree. The art classes spend weeks painting beautiful ornaments and designing the tree. Silver painted one of Santa’s face and Maika pained one of the North Pole. The chorus kids sing modernized Christmas carols, and the culinary classes make all kinds of cakes, cookies, and hot cocoa. Even the science geeks get involved, by making fake snow and rigging giant fans to blow it softly down to the gym, making it look magical. It’s a really big deal at Woodward.

Silver grabbed her costume from her closet. It consisted of a red, fitted jacket, a red skirt, black tights, a Santa hat, and a red and white striped scarf. Each of the reps/queen had to be “Santas” while the rest of the student body had to be elves.

She smiled at the thought of seeing Maika in the elf costume. It was a green and red striped shirt, jeans, an elf hat, and a white scarf.

“Hey I miss you already. Idk if I can wait till 12 to see you!” he phone vibrated, a message from Stud.

“I miss u already too… but can’t wait to see u in that elf costume ;)”

“Shut up we all can’t look as amazing as you always do”

“Awwww Maika! Well ive gotta go, the jr reps knocking at my door” Silver quickly texted and answered the door.

“Hey Silver! You ready?” Sage Worchester, the junior representative, asked.

“Uh, no but you can come in for a sec” Silver stepped inside to let the pretty brunette in.

“Busy texting Maika?” Sage laughed.

“I can answer that for her, yes.” Torrie said from her bed. “He never leaves I swear.”

“That’s adorable. He seems so perfect. He’s super nice to Damien, which I’m guessing is huge for you…” Sage was going on until Silver interrupted.

“Stop! You’re making me miss him more!” she whined, wrapped her dark auburn hair around the curling iron.

“And its two hours till the unveiling of the Santas. Have fun with her.” Torrie got up, then added, “I’m going to Tanya’s to get ready…. See ya there Silver”, then slipped out the door.

 A half hour later Silver was finally ready. Her hair looked redder than usual with the red hat. She’d only done the necessary make-up, mascara, lip gloss, concealer, and a bit of shimmer on her cheeks.

“How late are we?” she asked Sage as she locked her door.

“Umm about 15 minutes, but I texted Mariah telling her we’d be late.” Sage smiled.

“Mrs. McCroy will still be pissed though.” Silver said, not really caring.

“So look who finally decided to join us, the upperclassmen.” Mrs. McCroy snapped when they entered.
