A Very Haunted Christmas

Day Twenty-Three

(the image above shall be explained soon)

Drew woke up, and got ready for the day.

He stepped outside of his room, and then...

He got hit in the face with a spool of thread.

"Ow!" He yelled.

"Ha ha!" Brisk laughed, grabbing the thread back and running around. "We're all wrapping presents downstairs!"

"Why are they doing it all together?" Drew asked incredulously. "They'll all see what they're getting each other!"

"Yeah, well my mom cast a blurring spell around all of the different people's workspaces!" Brisk smiled. "That way, we can all enjoy the festivities together, but still keep it a secret!"

"Your mo- oh yeah! CrystalMoonlight!" Drew remembered. "Okay, so, do I have a station?"

"It's right next to Amber and Armen!" Brisk called, before sliding down the banister.

Drew smiled and shook his head.

This should be interesting.

He strode down the stairs, and got to his station.

Okay, I just need to get my bag with the gifts! He thought. 

And he did just that.

Everyone seemed to be having a good time, decorations flying everywhere, and the faint sound of Christmas music emitting from the stereo.

Outside, Darrick watched the festivities, and gave what looked like half a smile, and half a frown.

Everyone's giving each other presents... I wonder what it's like to do that...

He contemplated for a moment, before secretly inching some cards and a pen slowly towards him using telepathy.

Inside, Drake was talking to Scarlett, trying to speak over all the noise.

"So..." He called. "Who was that person in the woods the day I talked to you and Audrey?"

"Oh... an old friend." Scarlett replied awkwardly, trying to stay as vague as possible.

"Is he going to be staying over?" Drake asked.

"I doubt it." Scarlett shook her head. "He likes to keep to himself."

"Does he have anywhere to stay for the holidays? Any relatives?"

"Um... I'm sure he does."

Actually.... Scarlett thought. I' don't really know.. Does he?

Then she shook it off.

I'm sure he does, somewhere.

And she continued wrapping.

Eve was in charge of the music, and after Let It Snow, she called out, giggling.

"Okay, this one is dedicated to a certain white eyed man out in the audience today!"

And she started playing You're a Mean One Mr Grinch.

"I will murder her one day..." Herobrine muttered, as the entire group laughed.

"No you won't." Grayson smirked at him. "You know why? Because at the end of the movie, the Grinch turns good! You're gonna become a softie!"

"No!" Herobrine growled, his eyes starting to glow a fierce white.
