(Play the song when I tell you.)

4 months later.........

Christmas was a day away. I was going to celebrate it with Stefan at the cottage. I told my parents I would be with a friend. Ryan had gone to an Island in the South Pacific with his family for a vacation. He wanted to take me too but I said my parents wouldn't let me. Well, they really wouldn't but I didn't even ask. Britney had gone to her family home. She had asked me to tag along but I wanted to be with Stefan on Christmas. Plus, Sofia wanted me there.

"Kiera, we're here," Stefan said and I realized we were parked near yhe forest. We got out and started walking.

"Kiera!!!" Sofia shrieked jumping to hug me.

"Hey, baby girl," I said and hugged her back.

"I missed you," she said and pouted.

"Awww, but I visited you a week ago," I reminded her.

"A week means 7 days you know, and a day has 24 hours and an hour has 60 mintues and a minute has 60 seconds so I haven't seen you in 604800 seconds," she finished and huffed. Stefan started laughing.

"Okay okay, I missed you too," I said and laughed with him. Grandma came and joined us in the laughter.

"So I heard you guys are going to decorate a tree?" I asked Sofia.

"Yes!!" she said and her eyes sparkled with excitement. She ran to the store room and brought a cartoon full of accessories for the tree that was now in the drawing room. It was 11 ft tall. Stefan brought a ladder and climbed it.

It took us an hour and a half to put up all the decorations. Sofia was mostly excited to put up the mistletoe because she read something about Harry and Cho kissing under it in 'Harry Potter and The Order of The Pheonix'.

Finally we sat and ate pizza all exhausted.

"Yay!! Tomorrow is christmas!!" Sofia suddenly exclaimed and we all laughed.

"It's late," I finally said at 11.00 pm and Sofia pouted.

"You need to sleep," I told her and kissed her forhead.

"Let's go," Stefan said and we walked out of the cottage.

It was cold and I gripped Stefan's hand to keep mine warm.

(Play the song now.)

Suddenly his phone rang. He picked it up. The forest was silent so I could hear the other side.

"Ste-Stefan... I'm sorry.. Please..,"

It was Celine. I heard Stefan's sharp intake of breath as he took his hand from mine and put it in his pocket. Suddenly I felt like the temperature had dropped 10 degrees.

"Are you drunk?" Stefan asked.

"I love you Stefan," Celine said. She was clearly drunk.

"Where are you?" he asked.

"You will come? For me?" She said and again went back to saying she loved him.

He ended the call and called someone. He had the number on his speed dial.

"Tristan, can you track Celine for me?"

"Yes boss," the guy named Tristan replied. Who was that guy? He could track people? Why did he call Stefan boss? Oh his godfather was a mafia leader. So Stetan was too. But he didn't tell me...

"Track her and send me the GPS location on my phone," he said and ended the call.

He looked at me with a guarded expression.

"I need to go pick up Celine. She is drunk and I guess alone or else she wouldn't call. She might get in trouble," he said and I nodded. I didn't know what to say. I hadn't seen him say her name in the last 4 months.

He held the door open for me and then he got in too and started driving. He was driving really fast. 130 km/hr.

Soon we reached my home. I was about to get out when he held my arm. I looked at him.

"I'm sorry," he said.

"It's okay," I replied. We weren't in a relationship so why would he be sorry? We were just friends. I had no right to be possessive.

He kissed me on my head and smelled my hair before letting me go.

I don't know why, but I felt empty. I went upstairs without a word. Was I overreacting? 4 dates? It wasn't too much. Of course he can go running to his ex. But she may be in trouble that's why he went. He wouldn't go if she was okay. So he still cared about her. Ouch. That thought hurt.

Well tomorrow was christmas. I should get to bed.

That night I saw that dream. The dream that I saw a lot of times. It was the same. Going in and finding him.
