"Nadia wake up its December!" I jumped on top of Nadia, who was still asleep in bed.
"Go away," she mumbled
"No! It is officially Christmas season, and we start decorating today."
"Ugh, go talk West into going with you." She covered her face with a pillow before I ripped it away from her.
"He's busy."
"Then ask the boys."
"Recording a song."
"Your mom?"
"Out of town."
"Ma-"
"With mom," I cut her off.
"For petes sake woman, take Brody for goodness sake!" she yelled.
"His sister came up from Florida, he's with her. I'm not interrupting their family time. You should know this," I said.
"What time is it?" Nadia asked, getting out of her bed and walking to her closet.
"12:00. You had a Netflix marathon last night, so you stayed up late."
"Oh yeah." She went through a few things in her closet before pulling out a black sweater. "Do I have to go?"
"Yes," I said. "Now, get ready. We leave in forty-five minutes."
"Fine."
I went to my room while Nadia got ready. Christmas was my favorite time of the year, and it was finally December. We had to get a tree and decorations since we moved.
I pulled on a pink sweater and some jeans before going downstairs to wait on Nadia.
"I'm here. Now, where are we going?" Nadia asked, walking down the stairs.
"Home Depot, Ikea, and Wal-Mart," I replied, listing off the places we will most likely have to stop at.
"Okay, let's get going."

We pulled into the Wal-Mart parking lot three hours later. We already had a tree, stockings, and some other inside décor for all around the house. We came to Wal-Mart to get some Christmas lights, batteries, and some things to stock up the kitchen.
"I'll get the food, you get the lights and batteries," Nadia said.
"Okay."
I went to the section with all the Christmas stuff. I grabbed six boxes of the white Christmas lights, two for the tree, two for my room, and two for Nadia's. I grabbed some batteries then started to head back to meet Nadia at the front. I walked past the onesies and got one for me and one for Nadia. Mine was a reindeer and hers was Santa.
"Why and where?" Nadia asked once she saw the onesies.
"Because we are BFF goals, and Christmas section."
We paid for our stuff then went back home. After we took everything inside, we started to decide where everything should go.
"The tree should go over there," I said, pointing to the corner of the living room.
'Yeah, then we can put the command strips and stockings beside it on the fireplace. Everyone is coming here for Christmas, right?"
"Yeah, the boys, mom, and Mason. Logan said he would probably stop by and West and Brody are coming later Christmas night for dinner," I informed.
"It's the first day of December and you already have all that figured out?"
"Yep. Mom said she would help us cook dinner and get ready on Christmas."
"Wow. So, shall we start to set everything up? Except the tree, the guys can set that up and we will decorate it."
"I like that plan. Yeah, let's start."
-
"The tree will make it all come together later." I stood back and looked around the house, taking in our hard work.
"Agreed."
"It's already 7 P.M., let's go get something to eat," I suggested.
"What do you want?" Nadia asked.
"Chinese."
"Want to go to that little Chinese place we took Corbyn to for his birthday?"
"Yeah, let's go."
We got into my car and put on the Why Don't We playlist. Always got to support the fam.
-
After jamming out to a few songs, we finally arrived at the Chinese place.
"Hi, welcome. Table for two?" The waiter greeted us.
"Yes please." Nadia said.
"Right this way."
We were seated down at a table and ordered our food.
"So, it is your six-month anniversary with West next month," Nadia said, taking a drink of her tea.
"January 25th," I confirmed.
"You two are so cute," Nadia cooed.
"Yeah but so are you and Brody." I saw her face turn a light shade of red as I said that. "You really like the guy after he did all that to you?"
"I never stopped liking him. I just, stopped talking about it and acting all depressed. Turns out, he did too.
"Just remember, the first time was his warning. If it happens again, he is dead."
"Warning? I hardly call a broken and bloody nose and being kicked in the balls a warning." Nadia let out a small chuckle before looking up from the table and at me.
"Did he live? If your answer is yes, it was a warning."
We finished eating before making our way back home. When we got there, I went into my room and changed before posting on Instagram.
