"I have three words for you Mi."
It was Friday afternoon and I was lounging on a deck chair in my brand new bikini talking to Cam on the phone, while my brothers and cousins splashed wildly in the pool. Well except for James. My girl crazy, 19 year old brother insisted on getting the perfect tan. Which was really not that hard at my grandparents holiday house in sunny South-East Queensland.
"Sorry what was that?" I asked as my twin brothers and various cousins bomb dived into the pool splashing me with yet more water.
"THREE WORDS MIA!" She yelled into my ear.
"Woah woah ok calm down. What three words?" I asked suddenly very curious.
"Boxing...Day...SALES!" Cam announces proud of such a fantastic idea.
I groaned.
"Sorry Cam, I don't know if I'll be back in Brissie (Brisbane BTW) in time." I said.
"Well you'll have to be." She continues. "Cause your getting your Christmas present tomorrow and It's defiantly not a Westfeild gift card." She says sarcastically.
I shook my head in disbelief.
Every year Cam always gives away what my Christmas gift is before I get it. And I was so sure that this year she would break the curse and not tell me until the proper time.
But no.
She tells me a less then 24 hours before she plans to give it to me.
Typical.
"Wow Cam. Another years dreams gone." I joked.  
She scoffed.
"I got to go. Be here tomorrow. See ya Mi."
  "Bye Cam."

*Late Christmas night at exactly 10:35*
Our cousins were staying at the holiday house until New Years so we had a long goodbye before we finally left. The twins, Ashton and Casey, sat in the middle on both sides of me and James in the very back. Mum, the head of the family, was driving and Dad was in charge of the tunes. A responsibility we didn't exactly trust him with, so secretly we were all listening to our own music. My choice at the present time was JB's new album. (Cam forced me to buy it.) It was 11:30 by the time we finally got home and only could stay awake long enough to pull on my Christmas edition Peter Alexander PJ's and fall onto my fluffy doova before I was fast asleep.

*The next day - Boxing Day*
I woke up to a bird's nest for hair and morning breath that would rival a bog monster. My alarm rang so loudly that I slipped out of bed and fell onto the floor with a huge thump. From somewhere down the hall I heard Ashton moaning for me to shut up. Groaning I pulled myself off the ground and fell back into bed. After 10 minutes with no sign of sleep I grab my phone from my bedside table and scroll through my notifications. Along with the usual Instagram, Twitter and Snapchat notifications I got a text from Cam with the details for our meet up at 9.
Geez.
It was 6AM and that girl was already awake.
The only reason I had to be to up at this absurd time was that it was my turn to walk our pug Simba.
I texted back to say that I wold be there.
I then set to the huge task of fixing my hair. By the time I was ready to go (in my Lorna Jane gear) Simba was bouncing of the walls.
Half way through our walk/jog (manly walk) we saw Josh, the local hottie, run past. I waved but he only glanced for a second.
Yep.
Destined to be alone.
