Via

"Are you comfy?" I ask Cara as I begin to close tape the box shut.

I hear a faint 'yeah' and I completely tape the top. My mum found this christmas box that was already decorated so we didn't have to wrap it. We also put holes in the corners that weren't too noticeable so that Cara could actually breath.

I got in the backseat next to the huge box along with our other gifts. Max and Harvey here we come.

Cara

"Okay Cara we're here. Stay quiet." I hear Via tell me.

I hear the car door open beside me and feel myself being picked up, then dropped on the ground.

"Ow!" I yelled.

Via hit the top of the box.

"Shut up! I'm sorry! Stay quiet!"

I laughed to myself at how serious she was about this surprise. I felt the box being pushed along she sidewalk up to the front door and a knock. The door opened and Paul answered. I knew because of the voice that was shocked to see the large box.

The box was picked up and put inside and I heard Sara comment on how big it was. Little do they know...

"Hey Vi." I hear a familiar voice say. I hear faint sounds of hugs and hear more footsteps.

"Whoa Via, you didn't have to get such a big gift!" he says.

Harvey.

That's my boy out there. I was so tempted to just rip my way out of this box but I knew it would be better if i stuck to the plan.

"Okay kids into the living room, let's exchange your gifts!" Sara announces. I hear shuffling of feet to the right and begin to feel the box being pushed again.

I was going to be the last thing opened.

The sounds of wrapping paper being torn filled the room, and this box, and I heard gasps.

"Via, you shouldn't have! This was so expensive!" Max exclaims.

"I know you really wanted it Max. It was no problem really."

More gifts were exchanged and I figured out that Via got a necklace with her name on it from Max that she has always wanted. Harvey got her a brand new pair of Uggs which she had also been dying to have.

Now it was time for Harvey's big present.

"I'm so nervous about what could be in there." I hear Paul say laughing a little.

"Okay," Via starts, "so this present is mainly for Harvey, but Max will be happy too. Harvey if you don't love this, then we have a big problem."

I hear tape being ripped off and I get into position carefully. As soon as I see light I stand up and yell "Merry Christmas!"

The twins look stunned, then smile. Harvey hugs me tightly and I hug him back.

"I missed you so much." He whispers.

"I missed you more."
