Aaron's POV

Today was the 20th in December which meant that Christmas would be here soon. I already had all the decorations up even outside. I knew that no one was coming over, but Jason and Austin were since no one else could because they were busy doing their own things. I went to go check up on Kano and he was downstairs laying on the couch. I heard the doorbell ring so I went to go answer it. When I opened the door I was greeted by Austin not wearing a coat. I smirked at him then said,"And you want to get the flu because?" He rolled his eyes then said,"Ha ha funny, but unlike you I don't get sick." I laughed then Kano ran over and jumped onto Austin's legs when he sat down in the kitchen. "Ha he's just like you. Always happy to see someone." I looked up from my phone at him with a blank face then said,"Ha very funny. Anyway what're you doing here bro?" He walked over with me and sat on the couch with Kano and said,"Eh, I just thought could use some company since ya know...." "Yeah yeah I...know," I said with a frown.

As I said before no one was coming of course with Jess being busy going on to the state Science Fair(I mentioned this cuz meh two best bros Nova and Bre made it to the science fair! Whoo congrats guys) and my parents are still taking care of Emma so no one could really come out here and celebrate, but it's okay. Austin and I talked about some stuff, but then had to leave since he had to help his mom with Christmas shopping. A few minutes after he left I texted Jess to see what was going on.

In Text: A-Aaron J-Jess

A:Hey Jess

J:Hi Aaron! Sorry again that I can't come over for Christmas.

A:It's okay. Your not the only one who couldn't come so it's just gonna be Kano and I this year.

J:Sorry Aaron I have to go, but we'll talk soon okay?

A:Okay see ya.

J:See ya.

I sighed to myself and looked at Kano. He whimpered knowing that I was sad. I chuckled to myself then pat his head and said,"Well Kano it's just gonna be you and I for a while." After watching a bit of T.V then left upstairs to take a shower and go to bed.

(Time Skip To 3:35 AM)

I jumped out of bed because Kano kept barking at whoever was banging on the door. I got annoyed because I honestly have no idea who the hell would be up at 3:35 in the morning on a Thursday. I went downstairs then looked outside and saw people coming out of a car, but couldn't see so well since I was still half asleep. I swung open the door and when I did someone jumped into my arms and screamed my name. I finally was completely awake and looked down to see Jess smiling and hugging me. "Jess! Oh my God I can't believe you're here!!" I yelled as I hugged her and twirled her around tightly as if she were to disappear as soon as I let go of her. Just as I hugged back my sister Emma came running up to me yelling,"Aaron! Aaron we came to visit you!!!" I let go of Jess then picked up Emma and threw her into the air. She kept laughing and giggling then I put her on my shoulders and we started playing Airplane. "*Walkie Talkie Noise* Breaker, breaker this is flight 407 getting ready for take off. Please fasten your seat belts then sit back, relax and enjoy the ride," I said in my best walkie talkie voice. Emma got put a thumbs up in front of my face then I stood up and started running around the house and making airplane noises. Emma kept laughing and giggling as my parents and Jess' parents brought bags into the house and I then started thinking about the fun Emma and I would have when we played with each other.

As everyone finished getting their stuff, I had to sit down Emma because I was tired from running around. "Aww come on Aaron on more pleeeeaaasseee?!" she asked me as I sat down on the couch still kind of panting. I tussled her hair then said,"Ha sorry Em, but I'm a bit tired right now. We'll play later though okay?" "*Sigh* Okay," Emma said with a bit of pouting in her voice. I laughed then walked over back to Jess who was slightly smiling at me. "What?" I asked as I shrugged my shoulders. "It's just funny seeing you act like an airplane," Jess said while giggling. I rolled my eyes then my dad closed the door and smiled saying,"Well there's some explaining to do!"

I face palmed then said,"Yeah a lot! So both families are here....4 days before Christmas......when you all told me you couldn't come and visit......yet your all here?" Everyone looked at one another then they all said,"Yeah," at the same time. I sighed then asked again,"So why are you all here exactly and how are you all here?" They explained that Jess' Science Fair wasn't until a couple weeks from now and since Emma is doing so well they can put her off treatment for a while. "Wow, well I'm not complaining," I said shrugging my shoulders. "Hey Aaron why don't sing a song now that we're all here?" my dad asked as he picked up Emma. I smiled and nodded then left upstairs to get my guitar. I came back downstairs and started playing.

Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead

Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb

So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets?
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow

[Chorus:]
Hey, now, you're an All Star, get your game on, go play
Hey, now, you're a Rock Star, get the show on, get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now wait 'til you get older
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture

The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The water's getting warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire. How about yours?
That's the way I like it and I'll never get bored.

[Chorus 2x]

Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas
I need to get myself away from this place
I said yep, what a concept
I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change

Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb

So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow.

[Chorus]

And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold

For the rest of that night all we did was sing and share laughs until we fell asleep.
