November 26

"Kesia wake up." Your father whispers and slightly pushes you.
"Five more minutes." You groan, pulling the sheet over your head.
"Come on Kes, it's a special day." He says a little louder and pushes you a little harder.
"What?" You groan.
"It's your birthday!" He says quietly.
"My birthday is in August dad."
"I know but, today is the day that we signed the papers saying you could legally live as a second child without arrest sixteen years ago." He explains. Your eyes finally open and you wake up fully. As soon as you sit up the room fills with noise.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" everyone in the room shouts making a smile form on your face. You throw the sheet off and jump up and give your dad a hug.

"Oooo, look at meeee! I'm Bellamy Blake and I didn't give Kesia anything on her Birthday because I'm petty. And I'm just going to sit across the room and put my arms around Gina and pretend me and Kesia were never a thing_" You say in a mocking tone. Octavia slams her fists on the table, silencing you.
"Alright that's enough! That's my brother you're talking about Kesia! I don't know what happened between you two, but I'm tired of it! If you don't like him that's fine, but the least you can do is get over it!" Octavia yells extremely angry and upset before walking off. You drop your head in shame, you look over at Bellamy who's staring right at you. He whispers something to Gina then gets up and walks out of the room. You do the same, walking outside and into the cold crisp night. Today was fun, you had a big party with friends and talked about the good ol' days. You're exhausted, and just want to lay down and look at the stars. You make your way on top of a storage container and look up at the stars, only for it to be ruined by the sounds of voices, a girl's and a guy's.
"Listen, I understand that you're hurting Jasper, but this isn't the way to fix your problems." You hear Key say over by the lake.
"I just need someone, I just need someone." Jasper sobs.
"Well that someone isn't me Jasper!" Key yells. You see her walking towards you and you duck down. She walks through the container you're laying on and walks into the Ark with Jasper chasing after her. What was that all about? You brush it off and lay back down. You close your eyes and relax, only for your moment of peace to be ruined again.
"Kesia!" Brandon calls for you. You roll your eyes and jump off the container, landing on top of him, not knowing he was there.
"Oh God, sorry Brandon..... and thank you for breaking my fall." You say starting out serious then laughing.
"Don't mention it." He groans. You stand up and he does the same.
"Whatcha want?" You ask.
"I wanted to give you something..... uh.. a present." He says nervously and scratching the back of his neck. He hands you a little white box, a bit bigger than your palm. You open it up and inside was a letter.
Dear Kesia,
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I'm bad a rhyming
Want to date?
You burst into laughter after reading the note, making him feel rejected.
"I love it! Of course I will!" You laugh. He smiles and laughs.
"Well there's more where that came from."

Christmas

"...and a partridge in a pear tree." You finish singing. The crowd applauds you and you do a small bow then walk towards Brandon who instantly pulls you into his embrace and kisses you.
"You did great hun." He smiles.
"Thanks." You smile and give him a kiss on the cheek. You grab his hand and walk outside to the fire. It was coooold, and you were freezing even though you had on your old denim jacket underneath your guard jacket, and underneath that you had on one of Brandon's grey shirts, along with skinny jeans and your weapon belt. Just because it was Christmas, doesn't mean that it's safe.
"Hey Kes?" A voice asks from behind startling you, making you draw your sword and spin around, almost slicing Brandon in the process. You bring your eyes up to identify the person. Oh it's just Lincoln.
"Sorry Lincoln, you startled me." You apologize and begin to put your sword back into its scabbard.
"I was wondering if I could borrow your sword?" He asks, making you raise a brow.
"Why?" You ask confused.
"I lost mine." He says. You look at his scabbard and see the handle of his sword sticking out.
"Guess you didn't look hard enough." You say slipping your sword into your scabbard.
"Just let me borrow it, I'll give it back as soon as possible." He begs.
"Fine, but you'll have to give me your dagger." You say as you hand over the sword.
"Yeah, good luck with that." He laughs before walking away.
"Lincoln!" You yell and start to chase after him, but Brandon keeps you from going any farther than a few inches.
"Hun, don't worry about it. I've got a wonderful Christmas planned. You and me, snow, and love." He attempts to say in a romantic voice. His terrible attempt makes you laugh. You calm down and give him a kiss on the cheek.
"Alright, I like that."

"Alright Kes, open your presents." Your dad orders. You open the first box, "Guard Boots!" You squeal.
"I thought since you've ranked up from inspector and you're now sergeant, you might as well look the part." You dad says.
"Thanks dad!" You say and give him a hug.
"You're mother would be proud Kes." He says. You release the hug and give him a nod.
"Open mine next!" Key says, pushing a box towards you. You open it and inside lies a pearl necklace.
"Thank you Key, I love it." You say and give her a hug.
"Here." Brandon says, giving you a leather glove that only covered part of your hand, and covered only your index and thumb, with holes for your finger tips to come through.
"What is this?" You ask.
"It's a bow glove thingy." He answers. Octavia and Lincoln walk into the room and lay down something large wrapped in hide. Lincoln walks in carrying your sword, making sure to cover all of the bone handle. He hands it to you, revealing the carvings on the handle.
"Lincoln, it's beautiful." You gasp as you look at the handle, (picture) showing different landmarks, the trikru clan symbol, and a K.
"Well my present is better." Octavia jokes. You unwrap the hide and gasp at the sight of the gift. "A NEW BOW!" You scream. You jump up and give Octavia a huge hug. "I love it so much! Thank you O!" You squeal and let her go. "I'm gonna test it out!" You grab the glove Brandon gave you, place the sword in your scabbard, grab the bow, rush outside into the snow, run out the gate, grab your arrow bag and arrows, grab your old bow, give it to Octavia, put an arrow on your new bow, and shoot. The new bow sends the arrow flying, farther than it had ever gone. You watch carefully to see where it lands. Once it does you run through the snow to the spot and are met with a scene that sends shivers down your spine, Finn standing beside the arrow. You freeze instantly at the sight of him.
"Hi." He says in a happy go lucky voice.
"Go away Finn." You order through closed teeth.
"Come on, you don't have to be so mad." He says, walking towards you, you couldn't move, you were too scared to.
"Leave me alone!"
"Now why would I do that? We both know your biggest fear is being alone Kes." He says lowering his voice and running his hand across your cheek. You wanted to escape, you wanted to get rid of him. But he was like a voice inside your head, never leaving, and always wrong.
"It's okay Kesia, everything is fine. I won't leave you alone." He says before planting his lips on yours. Only then are you able to move. You jump back and pull out your gun and blindly shoot with your eyes closed in fear. Once you open them he's gone.
"Kesia is everything okay?" Octavia asks as she runs towards you. You totally forgot everyone had followed you to get the arrow.
"Yeah I'm fine, I'm just jumpy for some reason." You lie, your father rushes to your side quickly after Octavia. You walk over and pull the arrow out of the ground. Ignoring the blood impossibly placed on the end, you stick it into your arrow bag and walk back into the Ark. You bring all your presents into your room before walking to the fire and cuddling up with Brandon, trying to forget what had just happened. A Frickin ghost just kissed you..... knock that off the bucket list of Things Not To Do. If this wasn't a Christmas to remember, then memories don't exist.
