December Wishes

8th of December

The next morning I had almost forgotten about all the confusion. Everything seemes just as before. Just simple, lovely and easy. Now, I had to give statues and make wishes. And it was hard. Wishing for something. Because I had no idea what I wanted. Did I want world peace? Did I want another pizza? I had no idea.

     I woke up at 11 o'clock, which was weird for me and by the time I was able to open my eyes, Ashley wasn't there. I got up and changed in another sweater and jeans and got down stairs. I know you are probably wondering why I am always wearing sweaters. And it's mostly because it's sweater weather and I think sweaters and jumpers are the best thing ever. So, there you have it.

     I got downstairs only to see Ashley jumping up and down like a small kid.

     "Ash, are you okay?" I questioned, as confused as always.

     "Of course! Why wouldn't I be? I am just... OMG, I can't believe it!" she shouted.

     "Are you sure you're okay. You seem a little... Excited. Did something happen?"

     "Bryan happened!"

     "What?"

     "He called on your phone, and because you were asleep, I answered it. And he told me he actually wanted to talk to me, but he didn't have my number. So, he wants to take me on a date tonight. How cool is that?"

     "That's really cute, Ash. But, don't forget, whatever happens, you will always be my cousin, and if I'll have to I'll kill Bryan. Okay?"

     "Okay, but I hope you won't have to," she stated.

     "I hope that too. But now, I really  want to make some pancakes. So, can you go in the kitchen to check if we have everything we need?" I asked, as I sat myself on the couch and took my phone to call Soph, Cat and Addison.

     "And what are you going to do?" she questioned.

     "Well, I'm going to call the girls, so they can all come here, to help you with your date, and then I'll go to the shop to buy whatever we need," I responded, bringing the phone to my ear.

     The first one I called was Soph.

     "Hello, lovebird!" I greeted, as soon as she answered.

     "Hey, December! What's up?"

     "Well, just wanted to see if you can come here and help Ashley with her date with Bryan. I'm going to call the other girls too, and also, you have to give us all the details about Dan." I said, winking, even though she couldn't see me.

     "Did you just wink? And, I'll be right over in an hour."

     "You know me too well, Soph," I sang, hanging up.

     The next one was Cat.

     "Morning, Cat!" I chirped just as excitedly as I did before.

     "Hi, Month!" she called, laughing.

     This was one of our things. Because I called her Cat, and at first she thought it was the animal, she called me Month because... Well, it's actually pretty obvious. You know, December... Like.. Nevermind.

     "What are you up to?" I asked, even if I knew she was just going to stay home and watch videos all day.

     "I don't know. Just watching some movies," she responded.

     "Not anymore, Cat! You are coming at my house so we can help Ashley get ready for her date. Got it?"

     "Yeah, yeah. I'll just head over in half an hour."
