CHRISTMAS!

I woke up at the amazing time 7am. Very impressing for me! I hopped up and galloped my way downstairs to see a card and a present sitting on the kitchen bench. I got out the frying pan and some eggs from the fridge and started to fry them.

I finished up and walked down the hall to Nana Joys room. Hmm... She wasn't there. I walked back to the kitchen to eat my fried eggs. I finished up and rinsed off my plate and got out the cling wrap. I put that over Nana Joys plate of eggs for her later and put it in the fridge. I was really curious off what was inside the present and envelope on the table, but decided that I should wait for Nana Joy to be with me before I open anything.

It was a really hot day. Just the usual Australian summer. Hot sun, and heaps of water in the air. Bad mix. I heard the wind chimes from out the back move dramatically, noting me that someone was one the back porch at 8:30 in the morning. I assumed it to be Nana Joy when Stella slid open the back glass door.

"Merry Christmas Kyles." She said inviting herself in.

"Do you not spend Christmas with your familly?" I asked. I was still in my pyjama shirt and shorts while Stella was in a singlet and shorts with a bikini underneath.

"No I don't. Since your Nana Joy is helping cook for Yambas bowling club Christmas brunch, I thought I should save you from total boredom. Come to mine? Just until the brunch starts" she invited. Well I guess I should, since Nana Joy is busy.

"When does it start?" I asked.

"10:30. Nearly everyone goes so we can see the gang" she said smiling, leaning over to grab a mandarin."And your boyfie" she said winking.

"Shut up!" A laughed.

I headed upstairs and got ready into similar clothes as Stella. I grabbed my phone and went back downstairs to join her.

We walked down the street towers her place.

"Did you get your Secret Santa present?" Stella asked curiously. I nodded to her.

"Who was it? What did you get" she asked while unlocking her door.

"It was Matty and he got me some soccer gear" I said blushing a bit

"OMG NO WAY! THAT IS SO CUTE!" she screamed. Wow Stella. Soccer gear. Soo romantic *note the sarcasm*

"STELLA NEWRICK! KEEP YOUR VOICE DOWN IN MY HOUSE" Stella's mum yelled from somewhere in the house. Stella frowned and we went up to her bedroom.

Stella jumped onto her bed and started playing with her phone.

"So who was you Secret Santa?" I asked her. She looked up at me a smiled a cheeky grin.

"Tim had me, he bought me a new pair of vans and got me that little bouquet of chocolates" she informed me pointing to a box filled with boost bars, snickers and mars bars and a pair of black and white vans on the ground.

We sat on her bed, talking, reading magazines and playing on our phones when I decided to text Matty.

To Matty:

Merry Christmas xx. See you at the brunch :)

I hit send and got a reply about 2 minutes later

From Matty:
