The Everyday

Chapter 39: Christmas, Christmas, Christmas

Charlotte, went to the doctors appointment with her parents. Ian, the doctors and her parents were talking off to the side while, Charlotte waited in the hallway.

"We see nothing to show that the memory loss was from the seizure. Although the dyslexia could be. I first want to switch the medication and dosage. See how that goes" said the doctor.

"Will the dyslexia get better?" asked Erin.

"That is hard to know at this point, but I have some specialists I want to recommend to you" said the doctor. He pulled out a paper.

"Thank you" said Erin.

"If the memory loss gets worse, let me know immediately, but at the moment I don't see a huge cause for concern" said The doctor.

"Thank you" said Kevin.

"Of course" he said shaking their hands and leaving.

"What do you think, Ian?" asked Erin.

"I trust Dr. Hammon, he's been in this field awhile and is one of the best. If he says he isn't worried, either am I" said Ian.

"I just don't want her to go through this" said Erin.

"None of us to do. But we will get through it like we do anything, together" said Kevin.

That weekend was decorating, cookie making and Christmas tree getting fun. They were all at the tree place. 

"This one?" asked Luke standing next to a tree.

"Nah" said Charlotte. 

"We've been here for 45 minutes" said Ethan, "Its cold and its just a tree"

"Its not just a tree!" said Charlotte upset.

"Oh hear we go" said Nol.

"Nice going, Ethan. Now we are gonna get the speech" said Ben.

Charlotte shot them a look.

"Boys" said Erin sternly.

"Every tree's dream is to become a Christmas tree..." said Charlotte.

"We know the speech" said Brain stopping her.

"You're right, sweetheart. We will take as long as it takes, to find the perfect one" said Kevin taking her hand and walking off.

"Where's Blaine?" asked Paul

They all looked around.

"Wonder where Charlotte gets it from?" asked Ian sarcastically.

Everyone laughed.

"Hey guys!" they heard Blaine yell, "Over here!"

They all went over and looked.

"Its perfect right?" asked Blaine standing by a tree.

"Yes, its perfect, lets go" said Nol.

"Ya I agree, the perfect tree" said Ian.

"Its dream will be fulfilled" said Ethan.

"Enough" said Kevin.

"Its perfect" said Charlotte with a smile. She went over to hug Blaine.

"Leave it to the twins to find the perfect tree" said Brant whispering to Ian.

Ian laughed.  Blaine picked up Charlotte and put her on his shoulder and they all headed home with their new Christmas tree. 

"Time for the star!" said Kevin, "Charlotte..."

"Actually, lets let Simon do it this year" said Charlotte.
