Christmas P.I.E. (Life With P.I.E.)

Chapter 1

"I'm glad you came for a visit Max," my step dad, Terry said as I headed for the door, "I'll be over tomorrow afternoon with your Christmas gift."

I hugged him. I'd never gotten to do that before. "You really don't have to do that, Terry. But thanks. I'll see you then."

Back in what Ghost likes to call P.I.E. HQ, Johnny met me at the door, "I'm so excited for you. Your first Christmas!"

I laughed a little bit, "I've had Christmas before, you know."

"Yes, but it's your first real Christmas!" His smile was so adorable. "One where you're not just hoping not to get hit by your mum. And I think I found you the perfect present!"

I laughed again and said, "Well don't tell me what it is! I want a surprise!"

"Okay, I'll go put it under the tree and then we can decorate it!" He ran off to our room to get the wrapped gift from the closet.

That's when Irealized that I still hadn't gotten hima present! I internally freaked out. What was I gonna do?! I'd never bought agift before.

Ghost walked in and I ran over, whispering tohim, "Ghost! Tell Johnny I got a call from Terry. I forgot to get him apresent!"

He smiled like he was being given a spymission, "I got this."

That was taken care of. Now I just needed totake care of Johnny's present.
