syd's pov

The dinner last week ago definitely wasn't the best. My parents treated Jeff like he was my boyfriend and I had to constantly remind them to pipe down.

Gavin spent the whole time laughing at my embarrassment and Jeff was being all weird and cuddly (more cuddly than usual).

Jeff slept over last night, because he felt we needed more best friend bonding time. We spent the whole night eating ice cream and candy and watching adorable Christmas movies.

"Good morning," he mumbled, rubbing his eyes.

I yawned, snuggling into my pillow. "Morning,"

I then remembered it was Gavin's birthday and that I'd left his present in my car. I groaned, but ran over to his room to be the first to wish him a happy birthday now that he was finally legal.

"Happy, happy, birthday!" I mustered up as much energy as I could and jumped up and down on his bed. "Now you're legal, you can get your own apartment and move out and you can't drink but you can certainly go clubbing!" I squealed, excited at the thought of him moving out. My own separate room for more clothes.

Or I could turn it into a dance studio, with huge mirrors on every wall. To say I had a passion for dancing was a huge understatement. When I was younger I'd been dancing from the moment I could walk. And even if I don't dance as much as I used to, I still love it.

Gavin just grumbled a few incoherent words and I smiled at the thought of him not being here.

I'm such a terrible sister, but I mean he'd do the same for me, let's face it.

I hop off his bed and run down to my car to grab his present. While I'm grabbing his present, I notice a cute note in the seat Jaxon had been sitting in the other day.

dear syd,
i think you're really beautiful. i'm sorry if this seems creepy to you, but it won't once you realize who i am. i'm one of your friends, and that's probably all you'll ever think of me as. as just a friend.
i love you, stay safe, and stay warm.

In the seat where I sat, there was another note.
hi syd :)
i really like you. i hope you like me too. i don't think you do, but i maybe saying my three favorite features of yours will help, they are
1: your sassy side
2: your adorable side
3: your face
i don't have an eraser so scratch out the first sentence. i love you and i can't wait to reveal who i am to you.

Wedged in my cup holder was another one.
sydney,
i'm trying to be romantic just like the way your parents met, through notes. i'm obviously not good at it :/. i apologize for my lack of cuteness in these last three notes and i hope you can forgive me. :D
i love you, babygirl .

Lastly, in the passenger seat was the last note.
so i've been writing this little diary entries about you, and my sister found them, and read them. she said they were really cute and that if you didn't think they were cute you were not very smart (that's the nice version), so i'm going to show those to you, in hope that they'll make up for my failed attempt at being cute in these notes. i think this is my last note. i love you so much and i can't wait to tell you in person. i also know how much you love the nickname babygirl, so have an amazing day, babygirl, i love you.

Jaxon is so cute. I made a mental note to text him later to hang out with him. This is probably why he broke up with his girlfriend a few days ago. He didn't need to do go ruin a good relationship over me. But I did appreciate the note.
