Joe's POV;

Now I'm one of those people who are always late for social events, when meeting friends I'm always the last there, at meetings I'm always over 10 minutes late. So why is it today I'm sat on this swing at 8:30am wrapped in a cream woolen jumper, back hoodie and my green parka accompanied with my black jeans and brown boots. All topped off with a tarton scarf.

As i watched the hand on my watch move slower than i thought time could i heard a noise, a cracking noise i turned round to see what it was

"GOT YOU!" A familiar South African giggled as a snowball hit my face getting it all in my hair.

"Oh you're on" I said bending down and picking up some snow, as i mauled it she started to run.

"Yeah you better run" i said chasing after her. She wasn't in the mood for a dress today, instead she wore similar to me, a red jumper, black jeans and brown ugg boots with a black hoodie and my navy parka i had leant her yesterday. Her hair was perfectly covered by a red beanie with gems along the front of it. She looked stunning.

"NO JOE NO" She shouted as i got nearer and covered her face with her petite hands.

I threw the snow ball at her and hit her on the back and she fell. I went over and held my hand out to help her up but when she grabbed hold of it she pulled me over lying next to her and put a clump on snow on my face, which i pushed off faster than my reflexes could handle.

"Snow angel?" She said looking at me.

We both started snow angels, mine was better obviously.

"Come on, i need to give you a proper introduction to a snowy christmas"

I placed my hand out again and helped her up, for some reason neither of us let go so we walked side by side, hand in hand.

"Joe, where are we going?" She asked calmly?

"You'll see" I said giving her a wink.

As we walked further down the road i called down taxi and ushered Elena in. I whispered to the cab driver our destination and sat back in my seat next to Elena.

After 30 minutes of driving through the busy streets of London, sounds of cars and birds sounding from all over the place, the cluster of people on the side walk enjoying the seasons snow, we had arrived.

"I bet you've never been on the London eye before" i whispered to her, paying the taxi driver and going to buy our tickets to the massive wheel.

As soon as we approached the front of the que i felt Elena's hand grasp mine, hard.

"Whats up" I said, turning to face her.

"Im a little scared of heights" She said blushing. At this point i felt so guilty i should have asked.

"We don't have to" I said giving her a sympathetic smile.

"i know we don't, but i want to" she said intertwining her fingers with mine and giving me a smile back.

We stepped onto the London eye and suddenly her hand left mine, she ran to the front of the pod and pressed her hands against the glass.

"WOW" She said in ore.

I went over to see the untouched layers on snow slowly building up on the ground below us. The river below starting to freeze over and how perfect the houses of parliament looked with fresh layers of snow covering it. We looked down to see the crisp grass and white snow covered boats below us, i knew this would be the perfect time to vlog.

I reached for my camera as she stepped back from me a little.

"Do you mind?"  I said pointing to my camera.

"I'm sorry i just don't want to be in anything on youtube, i like watching your videos i don't see myself in one"

"Oh so you watch my videos then" I smiled making her blush.

"Only since yesterday, i had to find out why masses of girls were huddling around you and i knew it wasn't because of your orange juice or massive coat" She laughed.

I turned my camera on and started my usual intro to my vlogging channel, i then went on to film scenes in the pod and tell them what i was going to do for the rest of the day.

I turned my camera off and turned to face Elena who was looking at me from the front of the pod.

"Its beautiful isn't it"

"Not as beautiful as you" I replied.
