Neither Maia or Cameron have metioned one thing about how they felt. Maia was more quiet and judged each day but Cameron won't let anyone hurt his best friend. Cameron wanted to have another kind of relationship with Maia, but he was too scared to share his feelings thinking that Maia dosen't feel the same way, even when she does. But another year passed and it was a great winter day when he decided that he was going to tell Maia how he felt.

December 24th, a beautiful sun had risen, you could look out of your window seeing white snow covering everything, that's how Cameron and Maia liked to spent the holidays together.

Maia woke up around 10:00am, she quickly realized it was Christmas Eve, it was one of the only days that she was happy, like she was as a kid. She went to the bathroom, running in her ugg boots because the floor was freezing cold, she opened the door and saw Camila brushing her teeth

"Some privacy please !" Camila said with her mouth full of toothpaste.

"Alright..." Maia said rolling her eyes and closing the door. About 5 seconds later Camila opened the door.

"Thank you" she said.

Maia went to the bathroom and brushed her teeth, when she went downstairs she found what she always found evey Christmas Eve, Cameron in the couch playing with his iPhone, and Libby and her Mom cooking dinner for that night, also they had cooked pancakes in shapes of Christmas Trees.

"Hi Maia, Happy Christmas Eve !" Cameron said giving Maia a hug, they sat down and ate their pancakes.

"I missed that real smile" Cameron said looking at Maia.

"what do you mean ?"

"I never saw that smile you have right now since a couple of months ago, you should have it everyday like the first time we met." Cameron said and Maia blushed, they exchanged a couple of smiles but Camila was in the way...

"Ew" Camila said, and everyone laughed.

"So, kids..." Maia's mom said sitting with us in the table.

"What do you expect for tonight ?"

"oh... I know there will be a surprise" Camila said.

"yup... Camila let me take you upstairs to wash your face...." Cameron said with a nervous tone.

Camila was like Cameron's little sister and he told her EVERYTHING, every secret, every plan, every single thing that he did, things that not even Maia knew.

"I told you not to say anything about the surprise for Maia !" Cameron told her whispering upstairs.

"Yes, but. A: I didn't say it was for Maia. B: there is always a surprise every Christmas, but this one is gonna be different." Camila said.

"Thanks for not saying anything that is for Maia though" Cameron said to Camila and walked downstairs.

"What's wrong ?" Maia asked as she saw both of them coming down.

"Nothing, she just had food on her face."

The day passed by, as every Christmas, they went to play outside in the snow before getting ready for dinner.

"Kids it's time to get ready !" Libby shouted, and Cameron, Camila and Maia came inside around 6pm. Everyone got ready and Maia was the last one, Cameron was downstairs looking outside the window with Camila

"Are you ready ?" Camila asked

"For what ?" Cameron replied

"To tell Maia how you feel ! you are gonna tell her right ?" Camila asked looking up at him.

"I am going to tell her but I don't know if im ready..." Cameron said leaning down at Camila.

"You are ready, just say it after dinner... But after we open the presents obviously" Cami said laughing

"you know... for a 5 year-old... you give awesome advice" Cameron said giving Camila a hug.

"How do I look ?" Maia said coming downstairs. With a beautiful white dress.

"You look beautiful !" Camila said, giving Cameron a little push towards Maia

"*coughs, clears throat* You look awesome Maia..." Cameron said blushing. They stared at eachother for about 5 seconds and Camila broke the ice

"It smells awesome !"

"Yeah, it does..." Maia said

"kids ! come set up the table !" they heard Cameron's mom shout

"after you..." Cameron said. Maia was blushing.

They finished dinner, made a prayer and went to open the presents, they were really happy with what they got

"Maia... wanna go outside ?" Cameron asked

"Sure !" Maia said

"So... tonight was fun..." Cameron said, Maia was rubbing her arms because she was really cold.

"Yeah, it was super fun..." Maia said.

"Are you cold ?"

"yeah, sort of"

"Here, take my jacket" Cameron said, putting his jacket around Maia. They sat down in a bench.

"Listen, Maia... I need to tell you something" he said grabbing Maia's hand

"Since the day I saw you, I knew you were gonna be my best friend but... while growing up I realized that I wanted for you to be more than just a friend, and I don't care what anyone thinks but, I can't hold it back anymore... I'm inlove with you Maia, but I didn't know how to say it until now" Cameron said, but Maia just started at him for a second, and kissed him. It was a passionate kiss, they didn't want to pull away from it, until they heard a little kid gasp, it was Camila right behind the bench and smiling. Maia and Cameron where finally something.
