Ella Moss
12/25
I found a dress that fit me properly and covered everything last night and was currently trying to find an overtop that looked good with it. The dress was a simple red dress that went to the middle of my thighs, and it was very silky and nice feeling.
I went to Dianna for help and advice, and she pulled out a long, black, cardigan and then handed me black tights saying 'it's cold and you'll look even cuter with them on'.
I changed into them and brushed my teeth just in time before Jaxon pulled up and knocked on the door.
I grabbed my phone, the gift I wrapped for Jaxon, and put my black flats on. I ran down the stairs and grabbed my coat off the hook and opened the door.
"Hi Jaxon!" I greeted him and slid my coat on. When I saw his car wasn't here, I turned around to look at him. "Where's your car?"
That's when I noticed how he was looking at me. My heart pounded faster and I blushed furiously. Jaxon was smiling and definitely checking me out. "Come on Jax, where is your aunts house?"
And finally Jaxon's eyes slowly trailed from my legs to my eyes. "She lives not even ten minutes from here, and since the weather isn't that bad I was thinking we could walk."
I nod shortly and stand next Jaxon. "Lead the way."
He put his arm around my shoulders and kissed my right temple as we started walking.

When we got to Jaxon's aunt's house, I was nervous about meeting his family. Even if we aren't dating, I still wanted to make a good impression and have everyone like me.
Jaxon whispers, "don't listen to anything my aunt Minni says," in my ear and his breathe tickles me. I scrunch away and giggle a little.
Soon a girl's voice of heard yelling Jaxon's name, and a stampede of footsteps came towards us.
A girl that had to be at least eighteen ran to Jaxon and hugged him tightly. "Jaxon! You're finally here!"
She hung from his arm and looked at Jaxon.
"Hi Minni, how are you?" Jaxon smiled and looked at me. I was so confused, how was this girl his aunt?
"I'm good, Bentley and Jemma are finally getting along, your mom and Rennie are baking cookies and the ham, now who's this?" Minni looked directly at me and smiled.
Jaxon smiled and held his hand. I walked away from the door and stood across from Minni. I could see clearly over her head and saw three kids who were peeking from around the corner.
"This is Ella, the girl I told you about." Minni smiled and nodded at Jaxon's words and let go of his arm and came forward to hug me.
"Hi Ella," her arms wrap around me and then she backs away. She looks over at Jaxon and says, "you did a good job picking her."
I blush a little and shook my head while Jaxon said, "of yeah I know."
And then the little kids came running and ran into Minni's legs, almost knocking her over. They look up at me and I just smile diminutively as Minni introduces me to them.
