VERONICA'S POV:

3 DAYS LATER.

I went towards my kitchen, running a hand through my, slightly tangled hair.

"Here we go again." I sighed. I looked through my cupboards, still not knowing where I put everything.

Where in the bloody- Oh. Here they are.

Did I just say bloody? Oh god. Please don't tell me I have adapted to the British language?

More surprises... yay!!! Catch the sarcasm in there.

I grabbed one pink and white, striped candle and placed it on the side of the cupcake that I had put on the counter.

I grabbed the lighter, before turning off all the lights.

I turned on the fire so it can be my guide, back to the counter, I sighed and lit the candle.

The tiny flame shook from side to side as it was the only source of light. The tip of the flame was blue and I can feel it's heat getting closer as I picked up the cup cake. I watched the fire carefully, studying it's every move. A tiny drop of wax slipped on the side of the candle.

"Make a wish." I mumbled. I thought back to the life I had before Nathan or the Boys even came into my life. I remember them just being the British boy band that I had fallen in love with but knowing that my chances were unlikely to be with one of them, I focused on Toby. Everything was so normal. Well... At least I thought so.

I thought about when I met the boys. I would have never made so many of my best momeries if I hadn't met them. Sure we had some bad but what's the point of life if you get everything you want? I would have never met Nereesha and Kelsey, who are now my best friends! I would have never met Zayn who I love so much that has always been there for me. I would have never found true love if it weren't for them!

I decided on my wish and smiled.

I wish to be with the ones I love-

A large cold breeze came and blew out the candle before I had the chance. I rushed to get the lights as I sprinted to close the window that had let the cold breeze in.

I sat on the couch, putting on music to at least brighten up the mood.

"Happy Birthday, Veronica." I sighed making myself a cup of tea.

"It's okay. People didn't forget... They just umm... They're just busy." I closed my eyes. Not wanting to take in the truth.

SCREEEEEEEEECH

I heard a screech come from the tea pot as I quickly turned off the stove, placing the tea pot aside. I put the tea bag in before pouring the water. .

Nathan, says it makes the flavor explode.

Quickly putting in two spoons of sugar and a bit of milk. Stirring the ingredients, I started to hum a tune. After it was done I sat on my sofa, taking a sip of the hot drink, smiling at the warm touch.

Just like Christmas.

FLASH BACK

"You sure? You don't want to go?" Nathan asked again for the fourth time this day. He was leaving to see his parents for Christmas. He was gathering all of his gifts for Jess and Karen.
