Dusk Till Dawn (A Liam and Ally Story)

Chapter 49

Liam's POV

There was something special that I planned for Ally. Gloria and Susie set everything up. They finished just a couple of minutes before we arrived. I turned on the windshield as snow begin to fall.

I parked beside the park so Ally couldn't see the front. I unbuckled my seatbelt. "Stay in here," I said with a grin. "Dinah and I got a surprise for you."

Ally raised an eyebrow. "What?! There's more?!"

"Yes," Dinah said. "It's a big one. We are going to need you to close your eyes before you can see it." Ally nodded.

I got out and closed the door behind me. I sprint to the front until I got a good view on the entire setup. I hope this made Ally's Christmas special.

I hurried back and opened Ally's door. Dinah and Ally got out. Dinah and I let out our hand, and she took them. She closed her eyes, impatiently. We led her through the snow and to the front of the house. I heard Dinah gasp. I turned to her. Her jaw dropped seeing the beautiful view.

"Guys, stop teasing me," Ally whined.

Dinah squealed. "You are going to love this!"

Dinah and I exchange looks, cueing one another. "You can open your eyes," I said.

Her eyes fluttered open, and words cannot describe the moment. She softly scream as tears pass her waterline. Her hands covered her mouth.

"Guys, this is so beautiful," Ally managed to say.

In front of us were Christmas lights. It was exactly like I wanted it to be. The Christmas lights and garlands hanged around the edges of the roof. The inflated snowmen and reindeers were position close to the driveway as if they were to welcome anyone. Some Christmas lights were placed around the trees and bushes in a swirl. There was many colors reflected in our eyes. The snow began to cover them.

The sound of Ally's joy made this moment special. I could watch her forever. She gave me a quick hug before turning to Dinah and giving her one too.

"Thank you guys so much," she said. "I'm so glad I had you guys today. This Christmas wouldn't feel the same. It looks almost like my dad's decorations."

Dinah's phone vibrated in her pocket. She pulled it out and read the video chatter. "Camila, Lauren, and Normani wants to chat. Come on, let's go inside," Dinah said to Ally. Ally nodded.

Ally shifted her sight on me, asking, "Are you going to come in?"

"Yeah," I replied. In the corner of eyes, I see Harry's car pulling up. Ally and Dinah came inside as Cheryl and Harry both got out of the car. Harry headed inside immediately while Cheryl strutted until she stood in front of me. My eyes was amazed to see a different side of her. She seemed...vulnerable. Her eyes were a little puffed. Her hands were tucked inside her coat's pocket. Her eyes were only on me but in a scared manner. There was something strange in her. I could tell through her eyes. It reminded me of Ally's. It was filled with joy, love, and happiness, even though her facial expression didn't show it.

"Are you going to go in?" She asked, gesturing at the door that was only approximately ten feet away.

I playfully scoffed. "Why are you exactly here?" I asked, not trying to be rude, but it sounded like it.

Cheryl half smiled, probably confused by my question. "Excuse me?"

"Why did you come here?" I asked her again.

Her eyes shifted back and forth at the door and me. I haven't seen her like this since our very first date. She sighed, finally deciding to look at me. "I came here to get you back."
