Georgia's P.O.V

I slowly opened my eyes letting them adjust to the lack of lighting in my room, I heard shuffling outside my door then silence. There was a quiet knock and then a pause.

"Yes?" I spoke.

"Hey." Brit said opening the door. "I was just wondering if you were awake yet."

"Yeah, what time is it?" I asked.

"It's real early, six o'clock." She smiled passing me my dressing gown. I pushed the duvet away and pulled on my dressing gown, I walked over and hugged Brit before she led me downstairs to the living room, nobody was awake except for us.

"Everyone's asleep?" I said more as a statement then a question.

"Yep." She answered sitting down.

"Why wake me up then?" I laughed.

"Oh yeah! Wait, I forgot why." She said, she then thought until her face lit up. "I needed to tell you that Zeus and Polo are coming back today, we are having Zeusey boy back!" She smiled.

"What's all this racket." Roman said in a tired yet loud voice.

"Yes! Zeus is coming back and so is Polo!" I sang.

"Oh right." He smiled stretching.

"Merry Christmas!" I smiled running over to hug him.

"Merry Christmas." He said kissing my head.

"Hey how about you wake up Kane? Noah will be back later so we can't open anything he got for us." Brit smiled. I slowly nodded making my way to Brit and Roman's room, Kane sometimes has trouble sleeping so he sleeps with them.

"Hey." I said walking over to a passed out Kane, I sat beside him and nudged him gently, then again until his eyes flickered open.

"What?" He said almost saying the whole word, it just sounded like "wha?".

"Merry Christmas." I said as he sat up, he sat in my lap and just started cuddling me, I heard Roman come in but didn't look, he came in quickly and got out his camera.

"Awwwwww look at you two cuties." Roman chuckled as I smiled, I started to move but Kane didn't, I took that as a sign to carry him. I walked into the living room and sat in front of  the fire place that had turned on. He started perking up as he saw the stockings and climbed out of my lap. He handed everyone's theirs except Noah's, his hung alone.

"Me!" Kane said as Roman and Brit joined us as we scooted to the tree. Brit gave a nod of approval and he started tipping his stocking out, some of the things were wrapped others weren't. He opened the present closest to him, it was a box covered in green wrapping paper, his eyes lit up as it revealed an iPod.

"Oh my gohhhhhhhhhh." He cheered opening it up an distantly turning it on.

"Good job Santa brought you that huh." Brit smiled

(3 toy cars, 2 lego sets, and 1 happy Kane later......)

I opened my stocking and it contained, Longboard gloves, a dark red beanie, musical note wall stickers, and wireless headphones. Afterwards, much to Kane's delight, we started getting to the presents that had sat for a few weeks under the tree.

I passed Kane a big present and it was instantly torn open, he squealed and hugged the box, he slowly lifted it and shown us.

"Wow, that's a huge truck!" I said realising it was an RC monster truck. I turned around to see Brit and Roman fielding with a back massager. Kane crawled under the tree to try and find a present for me, it was funny because he can't read that well yet.

"D-a-d-d-y" he spelled out then put it back. "N-o-a-h" he smiled when he realised it wasn't for me. "G-e-o-r-g-i-a."
"Here you go!" He yelled dragging out a huge present, Roman eventually helped him.

"This was a pretty expensive gift, hope you like it." Roman smiled as I gently unwrapped the huge present. It was so big, bigger than Kane.

"What? Wow." I said opening it and the box to reveal a case. I instantly knew what it was, I slowly opened the case to reveal a high quality guitar. "Thank You so much..." I trailed off. My thoughts were soon disturbed by Kane plucking the strings, a gorgeous sound. I knew how to play, in the orphanage we didn't always have that horrible woman as the carer, we once had a nicer lady but the orphanage rules still made it hard to have fun. The deal was we got to choose one subject to learn, I went with music and learned how to play ukulele and guitar, we had this plan for about three years until she had to leave, that's when things turned bad for us.
----------------------------
I had received so many amazing presents and Roman and Brit were preparing for tonight, the family were coming round. I lifted my case and brought it down to the smile more store, also where Roman had the drum set. I had learned one song that I could play off by heart, I'm not sure who sung it but I instantly fell in love. It's called "tonight you belong to me", I love the song.

"I know you belong,
To somebody new,
But tonight,
You belong to me."

I started playing it until I forgot I was playing. I didn't know Kane was watching, he had stolen Roman's camera and recorded some of it.

"Kane?" I said.

"Hehehe" he giggled.

"Hey Kane? Where's my camera?" Called Roman as he came down. "There it is, what are you doing down here?"

"I was playing guitar, Kane recorded me." I smiled.

"Cool." He smiled. "Family are coming over in less than an hour."
