the good ol' holidays

Almost two weeks had passed since I had gotten out of the hospital and everything was back to normal. I was going back to school, and of course everyone had somehow found out that James was my boyfriend (aah ikr), he had asked me out this past Sunday. We were as happy as ever, and back on track. Now, Christmas was coming soon and we were all definitely in the spirit. Me the most, saying as I was practically a five year old when it came to holidays. Our 2 week Christmas break had just started and I was excited to be hanging out with everyone.

I was dancing around my room Friday in the afternoon after we'd gotten back from school with the music blasting loudly, waiting for James to get out of the shower so we could have a movie marathon, when my phone rang.

The music was still blasting and I had a grin on my face until I saw the caller. 'Sperm Donor' or in other words, my father. I turned the music off and took a seat on my bed as I picked up the phone, and heard the gruff voice of my dad who I hadn't heard from for a while now.

"Hey Bea" He said, his voice sounding tired. He hadn't called in almost a month and I thought that he had forgotten about me. "How's it going dad?" I asked, although I could tell that he was probably very busy by the tone of his voice. "I'm so sorry I didn't call earlier, I just had so much work in this past month." "But I promise you that I thought of you a lot darling, I sent some money a while ago, did you get it?" He asked. Now that I thought about it, I did get money and I had put it in the chest in the attic when I had seen who it was from, planning on saving it when something big came up.

"Well, anyways I heard about what happened two weeks ago, are you alright? You're not hurt right?" He asked, worried for his daughters health. "Yeah dad I'm fine, everything with the gang is alright and I've decided to pass it on to Zachary, remember him?" I asked, remembering the look on Zach's face when I had told him. "Yes, of course I do, he was Will's best friend's brother right?" "Yup, I thought he had proved he was a good leader and needed a chance to lead it." "Good thinking Bea, the boy seemed responsible when I met him, even if he was a young at the time." He replied.

We talked on and on about how we were doing and I had told him about James when he suddenly seemed to remember what he had called for. "Oh, Bea I almost forgot, the reason I called was because I am hosting a winter ball and I thought it would be great if you could come to help and so that I could finally introduce you to my fellow peers." He said, as if he would be scared to hear the answer come out as no. He added one last quick thing before I gave him my answer, "And bring all of your friends, I would like to meet them and get to know them, that includes James as well Bea." I was so shocked that my father, after so many years was inviting me, and my friends to a ball.

"Yes daddy, I'd love to!" I gushed to him, feeling like a child again. "I'll tell everyone and get them ready, can you text me all the information?" I asked him, grinning like it was Christmas already. "Yes darling, I already booked flights for you all and the Hunter Manor is open for you all to share, I can't wait to see you again dear." He said, not sounding so tired anymore. "Alright, I have to go now dad, but I'll tell everyone and I'll be there, I promise." I told him as we said goodbye to each other.

At the same time as the call ended, James came out of the bathroom, and oh my if my eyes could take pictures than I'd be clicking nonstop right now. James came out, droplets of water falling down his damp hair, dropping down his chest, and escaping underneath where his towel was clutched, giving me a full view of his v line. He was clutching his towel with one hand and ran the other one through his wet hair. I smirked while sitting back on the bed, watching his every move like a hawk.

He looked up at me staring and started to walk towards me with a mischievous smile on his face. What is he up to now?

He smiled innocently and then he jumped onto me. He straddled my waist and smirked. "James, get off me!" I scoffed, trying not to laugh. He just smiled and held onto me tighter. The only thing between us is the towel. I thought, remembering that I was only in a long shirt and lace underwear. Any normal girl would be blushing like crazy right now but I just smirked and turned him over. Hey I'm a strong woman okay! I was straddling him now, my face two inches from his face. We were both wet now since he had practically hugged me to death and gotten water all over me.

I pulled my face away and started to pull myself off of him when he held my waist and pushed me against him. We both moaned at the same time since he had accidentally forced my lady parts onto his man parts. I started to wiggle around, trying to get off him when he said, "Stop moving goddamnit, or I'm not going to be able to control myself!" I started laughing and started to roll my hips against his. "B-Bea s-s-stop," He muttered while rolling his eyes backwards, which made me smirk even more. He was so turned on right now, that it made me want to f*ck him right there and then but I stopped myself.

I was still laughing as I got off of him turned around, and grabbed his towel on my way to the bathroom to take a shower. On my way in I heard him mutter, "God I'm going to have to take a shower again, preferably a cold one." I chuckled while turning the water in the bathtub on.

"So what do you guys say? We take a first class trip to New York and get lit?" I asked, after telling Kacey, Kaleb, Jack, Sean, and James about the Winter Ball that dad was hosting.

Instantly Kaleb and Jack stood up and asked, "Are there going to be hot chicks there?" at the same time, I swear they both have monkey brains. I rolled my eyes and said, "Yes there are, you horndogs."

Kacey's head perked up when I mentioned that we were going to be staying there for all of winter break. "You mean that for two weeks, we're going to be staying at a house as big as a hotel, with maids and everything!" She exclaimed, almost running out of breath. "Yes Kacey, all of the above, so you guys in?" I asked one last time. Everyone got up and had basically the same reactions, they were all excited to go to my father's party and stay at my (father's) house.

The next day had been pretty eventful with all the shopping we had done for the ball. Kacey and Kaleb already had loads of money that they could spend, Sean and Jack had suits already, and I had shopped using the money that my dad had sent me a while ago. James had taken me to his childhood home, not too far from where I lived, where his mother was staying to get the remainder of his clothes, including all of his expensive clothes. James' mother had lost all contact with James after she found out that he was in a gang even if he had done it to help her with money. She let him stay in the house but she was always scared of him and never talked to him when he was at home, I had met her before and knew how James felt that his own mother would not talk to him. But he had put it behind him and stayed with her anyways even if he was not accepted like he was before.

We were all busy packing since our flight was tomorrow morning. The others didn't have to do that early but they had insisted. I was super excited and couldn't wait to see what was waiting for me in New York. I had my hopes up as I went to sleep with James by my side, snuggled into his arms like a teddy bear.
