Garroth's POV: It's Christmas time, yay. Sarcasm aside, I wasn't looking forward to this holiday season, not after I had received the news. I was told that Y/N was coming back to visit Laurence, and that they didn't even want to see my face. I understood, but I didn't know how it was going to work out. This was where I lived, despite how hard I tried, I couldn't get myself to magically disappear. 

Me and Dante had offered to hang up this lights this year, I was really starting to become good friends with him. Lately, he had been the happiest I've seen him in the past couple of months. After a long fight, he was finally granted the permission to have Dmitri for Christmas, and over the entire summer. Since he was going to be focused on Dad duties, he was trying to find his own place, currently still looking around for the right one. I slip on one of my lined jackets and head out, Dante already trying to untangle the pile of lights in front of him. 

He glances over at me as I approach, "I hear your little friend is coming to visit," he remarks. 

My face heats up, "Dante, I told you, it's over. I screwed up and blew it." 

He starts to laugh, leaving me puzzled. I didn't think my sob-story was that amusing to an outsider. 

"Garroth, I thought I blew it too. But look at me now, I'm going to be with my son again!" 

I smile, I saw his point. I didn't expect Dante to be able to be reunited with his son, but here we were now. Maybe, just maybe, this Christmas magic would wear off on me as well. 

^^^^

Your POV: I don't know why I'm going back. Alright, yeah, I did want to see my brother for the holidays. But, I really wanted to see him. He, he was driving me crazy, without even trying to. Recently, I had been having nightmares, nightmares about it all. It always went like this, he would die in some freak accident, I would be left there, left there with the guilt of knowing I never confessed. I never confessed how I felt, that despite how distant I was, I still loved him. 

I was going to drive again, like I did the first time. I was going to act like I did the first time, like I'm still clueless. It's a long drive, but I know it's worth it, I needed to tell him before I lost him forever. 

Here I am, parked in front of the house where so many memories happened. I had been trapped in a car for six hours, but in this moment, it seemed even more worth it. I couldn't help but smile, for I knew that this day would be so special in my life. I suck in one last deep breath, and open the door of my car. I proceeded to head to the door, knocking at it once. 

It opens, and his face pops out. 

"I'm home." 

Author's Note: Alright, first off, sorry this chapter is so late. As per usual, I have a lame excuse to defend myself. Just kidding, but, I did run out of time on Monday and yesterday, as I went trick-or-treating on one of those days. But, never fear, my schedule is still in place and I hope to not make anymore sudden delays! Also, here's a life update for all the weirdos that care about people's business like me. I got my bottom braces today, and I can't put on my rubber bands, RIP. With all that aside, thank you as always for the constant support! -Kayla/Author
