There was silence through out the apartment for the past three days. It was Christmas Eve, Rain didn't come out his room since the fight. Malcolm sighed and knocked on his door.
" Rain come on it's Christmas Eve I don't see why you're mad! "
" I'M NOT MAD "
That made Malcolm jump back a bit " That tone says other wise! " He huffs and storms off to his room. Stopping and looking back  at the door before going into his room.

" Rain... If you want to know so bad come look... " It's been hours since Malcolm came back to Rain's door.
There was no response for a moment until a click of the door unlocking. The door creaked open slowly as Rain stepped out.
He had bags under his eyes and his face looked puffy and red.
" W-What is it...? " His tone cracked a little, but was easy to notice he was crying.
" If you wanted to know so badly here " Malcolm pulled out a nice looking guitar. " Happy early Christmas... "
Rain's eyes widened in amazement at the guitar. It looked shiny and new, which it was.
" I was only taking a little and saving up, trying to get this for you.... " He sighs " After.... After I heard your dad sold your old one and I saw this one, I decided to get it.... "
".... But... B-but... Who was that guy...? " The doorbell rang after Rain finally spoke.
Malcolm goes to the door and opening it. It was him, the same guy, Rain can tell recognizing the jacket.
He grabbed his hood, taking it off. " Rain its been long! How's it been!? " Rain thought his jaw was wide open as he sees Stephen.
Stephen is an old friend and one of the friends Malcolm and Rain met on a social media type of app. Then they all moved on to Kik. Migration at its finest.
They never met Stephen in real life, but here he is now standing there with a big smile.
" S-Stephen what are you doing here?... "
" What you mean by that!? I came for the Christmas Eve Party! " He laughed. " Also I brought someone else! " He moved aside to let a girl past.
" Hey Rain how's it going! "
Ok now Rain literally couldn't believe this. " Kyla! " Kyla was a friend from New York who left to Europe for Christmas. Rain and her were close.
" W... W-What.. " Rain still couldn't process all this down.
" You really think I would miss out on a chance like this!? Heck no! "

The party began with a great start until bringing up what happened before the two came.
" Rain the heck man!? You get way too suspicious at times I swear " Stephen mumbles loudly while eating a Christmas cookie.
" I think someone owes someone an apology " Kyla giggles a bit.
Rain sighs and looks at Malcolm, slight mumble of embarrassment " S-Sorry for the misunderstanding- "
" Its ok Rain told ya you wouldn't understand " Malcolm hugged him, chuckles a bit.
Rain blushed lightly, hugs him back and nuzzles into his right shoulder.
" Alright now that moment is done " Stephen grinned " Let's keep this party going! "

Rain sighs, tired as heck and slouched on the couch, tiredsome.
" Thanks for coming over you two " Malcolm waves as they leave. " Drive safe! "
" Oh Malcolm before I forget " Kyla takes his hand and sets something in it, smiles " Alright good night! " Walks off to her car.
Malcolm blinks a few times and looks at what he was given. He blushed and his head a bit before walking back into the apartment.He walked over to the couch where Rain was still slouching, sighs a bit and thinks for a moment.
".. Here goes nothing..  "
