The Unexpected

Chapter 13

(EMMA'S POV)

After my mum and sister left, I just laid in bed, trying to get rid of this headache. I have some pain killers on me so I drank it, hoping it would help.

I think I must've fallen asleep cause the next thing I knew was someone knocking on my door. "It must be mum and sis."

I got up from my bed and opened the door.

"MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!" He says, smiling.

To my surprise, it was Dani. He was wearing a Santa hat. HE LOOKS SO ADORABLE IN IT. I wanted to just get up and hug him but he was carrying loads of things.

"Merry Christmas to you too, Dani. C'mon in!" I say.

He walks to the room and started taking out the food from the bag.

"What are you doing here?" I say, cutting off the silence.

"Well, your mom said you weren't feeling too well, so I volunteered to bring you some food." He handed me another Santa hat to wear so we can match.

"I didn't know you can be that nice. You know you don't have to do that, but thank you."

"Anything for you, Em. So, are you feeling okay now?"

"Well, yeah. I drank some pain killers earlier and fell asleep. Next thing I knew you were knocking on the door."

"Oh I'm sorry, did I wake you?"

"No no it's fine. I'm just glad you're here."

He smiled, passing me small bag.

"What-"

"Chocolate croissant. Your sister said you like em."

He then passes me a cup of coffee. "Toffee nut latte, I didn't know what drink you wanted so I figured since it's Christmas, you'd like a festive one. And please, don't spill it this time."

I rolled my eyes and said, "shut up."

We both took a bite of our croissant when I broke the silence and said ,"chocolate croissant, as well?"

"No. Just the plain one. I don't like chocolate."

I put down my croissant, eyes widened and said, "WHAT? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? YEAH, YOU'RE PROBABLY MESSING WITH ME."

"Nope, I'm not. I just don't like chocolate."

"You're such a weirdo, Mr Seavey. So that means you don't eat Hersheys, malteasers, AND HOT CHOCOLATE?? HOW CAN YOU NOT HAVE HOT CHOCOLATE AT THIS TIME OF YEAR????"

"I don't know. I'm just not a fan."

"Hm, I learn something new about you everyday, Mr Seavey."

He chuckles.
"So what, is Mr Seavey your new nickname for me now?"

"We'll see. Might change depending on my mood. I still can't believe you don't like chocolate. ARE YOU EVEN HUMAN? Gosh."

"How bout you? What other things don't I know about you?"

"Hmm, well not much. I'm such a boring person. Let's see, we'll, I don't like ketchup."

"That's something. But then you just eat your fries as JUST FRIES?"

"Well yeah. It's nice salty."

"That's so boring to eat."

"Says the one who dislikes chocolate."

"Touché."

I took a sip of my coffee. It tastes so sweet and Christmassy. I love it.

"I love this Santa hats by the way. Where did you get them?"
