I woke up to someone jumping on my bed, then proceeding to tickle me.


"St- stop! I'm up, I'm u-p," I laughed


"Get out of bed! Its Christmas!" West yelled. He placed little kisses all over my face before ending on my lips.


"Okay, now I'm definitely up." I gave West another kiss and got out of bed. I quickly brushed my hair and then we went downstairs.

"Thank you guys so much! I love everything," I said.


"Me too sweetie," my mom agreed.


"This is the best Christmas ever," Mason said, setting up his brand-new iPhone X. (You're welcome little bro.)


"Hey Nadia isn't Brody coming over later?" I asked, noticing he wasn't here like we had planned.


"Yeah. He said he was coming over at five and he would eat over here."


"Oh, okay."


It was time to put the plan into action. I texted Brody to send Nadia the text. A few minutes later I heard Nadia mumble 'or not.'


"What's wrong?" I asked, pretending to be confused.


"He just texted me. He said a family emergency came up and they are having to take a flight to Alabama." She put her phone in her lap and her head down. She shrugged her shoulders. "Oh well."


"I'm sorry Nads. He will make it up to you when he gets back." I rubbed her back and pulled her into a hug. I mean, yeah, I felt kind of bad, but it was going to be worth it.


"Yeah, you're right."


"Well, I'm going to go get dressed," I said, standing up.


"Yeah, me too," Nadia said.


I went upstairs and texted Brody.



Brody💯: did she believe it?


Kourtney💍: yeah, 100%


Brody💯: okay. Well meet up at the spot at 9 tonight to watch the fireworks. I'll surprise her there and hopefully everything will work out.


Kourtney💍: I'm sure it will. She will love it. You have the ring, right?


Brody💯: Yes, I have the ring.


Kourtney💍: alright, see you there.

I shut my phone off and went to my closet. I put on a white and some black Nike leggings. My family didn't really travel on holidays. My grandparents didn't really get along with my mom, so they just sent stuff in the mail. My aunt and uncle didn't like to travel at all, so they just sent it in the mail too. Overall, I had no intention of going anywhere today until later, and I wasn't putting on actual clothes until then. I finished changing then decided to message the author.

kourtneyofficial_: IT. IS. CHRISTMAS!!!!


theauthor: Your favorite time of the year!


kourtneyofficial_: YOURS TOO!


theauthor: Okay, you got me there

theauthor: alright, by

I shut my phone off and went to Nadia's room.


"Hey Nads. After dinner, I was thinking me, you, West, and August can all go to the park to watch fireworks," I suggested.


"It's gonna be super crowded."


"I know, but we haven't been in so long. This only happens twice a year. Once on the 4th of July, and once on Christmas. And we haven't been to either in three years. So, let's go," I tried to convince her.


"Alright. Lets go."


"Yay!"



Kourtney💍: She agreed on going to the park for fireworks!


Brody💯: Good. What is her favorite type of flowers?


Kourtney💍: Red or white roses


Brody💯: thanks



"West!" I hollered.


"Yeah?"


"Come here for a second."


"What's up?" West asked as he walked through my bed room door.


"You down to go with me and Nadia to watch fireworks at the park tonight?"


"Yeah, totally."


West went back downstairs to go get something. I went over to my makeup vanity and propped my phone up. I FaceTimed Jack. He answered the phone on the third ring, wearing a clause hat.


"Merry Christmas, to you," he sang.


"Merry Christmas to you too, Noodle Head."


"Hey!"


"Sorry. Actually no, no I'm not."


"Whatever."


"Well, I just wanted to tell you Merry Christmas. Tell the others I said hi, I have four other boys to call."


"Alright, bye Kourt."


"Bye."
