A promise is Forever (r.s.l)

Chapter 30. Christmas is coming!

-----3 months later-----

McKenna's POV:

Christmas is coming! I'm so excited. Ross's family and mine were going to Colorado which is where they were from. These past months with Ross have been fun. We haven't fought in a while. Occasional arguments but that's it. I waited for Ross to get out of the shower. Ross and I were going to the gym. I decided it was time I start working out since I have nothing to do. I went to my closet and chose a trainers outfit. I got a black sports bra, black shorts and and a quick little pullover. After Ross came back, I took a quick shower and got dressed. I put my hair in a ponytail and put on some makeup. "Hey, you ready?" I asked. "Yup. Lets go." He said unsurely. "Do you want to do this?" He smiled. "Of course.... not." I laughed. "Why not??" I whined. "I don't need to and neither do you." I rolled my eyes. "Ross, c'mon. This can be a bonding time. Please? Your always at work and I miss you." I explained. "OK fine but lets make this a challenge." I sighed. "Always a competition with you. What is it?" I asked. "OK, so we each have to do 30 of each skill and the first to finish wins a prize." I raised my eyebrow. "What prize?" He smiled. "I don't know. The winner decides, loser provides." I shook his hand. "Your on." Then we left. We arrived at the beach where I planned to work out. "OK, so what do we do?" I asked. "First high knees, then suicides, then jumping jacks and last... push ups." I groaned. "I don't know how to do push ups." He laughed. "When I'm done, I'll help you." I crossed my arms. "What makes you so sure you'll win?" I asked. "Annnnnd GO!" He shouted. So far, I've done high knees and suicides. I'm currently on my last jumping jack. Now I'm moving to pushups. "Done!" Ross stood up. I got down on my knees and did my push ups. "C'MON! Just 9 more." I fell on my stomach. "I can't. My arms are about to fall off." I cried. "I'll help you." He put his hands on my hips and basically did it for me. "OK. You win. What do I have to do?" I asked. "Hmm... Oh! A full body massage."He squealed. "What parts of the body?" He smirked. "Everywhere!" I raised my eyebrows. "Close your eyes." He did as I asked. "OK. Hold still.. Very still." Then I punched his balls. "Owwww!" He hunched over. I laughed. "Why do you keep doing that?" He yelled. "First part of the massage is done." I laughed. "Do you have a weird obsession with it or something?" I shook my head. "Then stop hitting me there." I smiled. "Nah! I'm good. Can I have a piggy back?" I asked. "No. Bad girls don't get rewards. I punish them." He turned me around and smacked my butt. "Ouch!" I screamed. "Lets go." He grabbed my hand and we started walking to my house. "I have a question." I stated. "Fire away!" He replied. "You promise not to laugh?" He nodded. "What does snow look like?" He stopped. "You've never seen it?" I nodded. "It's awesome. It's like whip cream but cold and it doesn't taste good so don't eat it." I laughed. "Oh and it's fun because you can go sledding and snowboarding and skate." I furrowed my eyebrows. "What? I don't know how to do any of those things." He chuckled. "Well can you skateboard?" I laughed. "Nice one! Really, that was hilarious." He put his arm around my shoulder. "You can't. I have to teach you." He stated eagerly. "What if I fall?" I was kind of scared. "I won't let you. Lets go!" He removed his arm and grabbed my hand, pulling me in the direction of his house. He ran inside and came out with 2 skateboards. "I need to change...." I tried to get out of this. "We'll skateboard at least to your house and then you can change and we'll continue." He explained. "Hey! Look at that." I pointed behind him and he looked away. I ran back to my house and up to my room. I changed into a long sleeve shirt with the number 13 on it, black shorts and converse. Then I brushed out my hair. Then Ross came in. "McKenna. What are you doing?" He asked. "Changing." I stated. "Why'd you run off?" I turned on my blow dryer and pretended I was talking. He plugged it out. "Why did you run off? You can tell me." He pulled me to my bed. I shrugged my shoulders. "Are you scared?" I looked at my wrist. "Wow! Look at the time. You should go now." I said. "You aren't wearing a watch. Please come." I shook my head. "No Ross. I can't do this." He grabbed my hands. "Remember when you first moved here and I taught you how to swim?" I nodded. "Well then you said the same thing but you pushed through it and now your an excellent swimmer." I relaxed a bit. "OK. Fine." We walked downstairs and went outside. "Alright, so it looks like this." He showed me how to do it. I stood up on it while holding both of his hands. "OK. Just like this. That's it! Your doing great!" He said. "I think I've got it. You can let go now." He gave me a push but I lost control and fell off. "Oh my gosh! Are you OK?" I nodded slowly. "My head hurts." I cried. "You have a cut there. I guess we can try this another time." I shook my head. "No! I'm not trying this again. I'll stick to walking." He helped me up. "Lets get you inside. My house or yours?" He asked. "Yours." We walked to his house. I sat on the couch while he went to get me an ice pack. I put it on my head. "Ow!" I cried. Then the doorbell rang. "I'll get it." He got up and went to the door. "Maia?" He questioned. "ROSS!" She screamed. I got up and walked to the door. "Oh. Whose this?" She asked. "My girlfriend. Uh, what are you doing here?" I spoke up. "Yeah and who are you might I ask?" Ross whispered in my ear. "Babe, be nice." I rolled my eyes. "I'm Maia. Hey, are you from Australia?" I nodded. "Me too." I gave her a fake smile. "What are you doing here?" He asked. "I came to visit you! Aren't you happy to see me?" She squealed. "I'm definitely surprised." She hugged him punching my nose. "Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry." I rubbed my nose. "I'm sure you are. Excuse me." I went into the bathroom. I'll admit, I'm kind of intimidated by this Maia character. I then went up to Ross's room. I sat in there for about 30 minutes until he came inside. "Hey! Are you OK?" I nodded slowly. "Liar." He sat beside me. "Look. I know she punched you but it was an accident. She's really not a bad person." I smiled a bit. "Right! Of course it was." I sarcastically stated. "Babe. No need to be jealous. Really, don't be worried. For me?" I looked down. "How can I stay normal about this? She's pretty, she seems' nice.. I can't compete with that. Can I?" He took my hands in his. "Babe, you are like her but the difference is.. I love you. Not her." I smiled. "I know. I'll try to control it." He nodded. "I love you. OK?" I nodded. "OK. I love you too." He kissed me for a few seconds. "How about we do something that doesn't involve you getting hurt? Last I checked, you owe me a massage." I laughed. "I got hurt though. You are still going to make me do this?" He nodded. "OK! Fine. Lay down on your stomach." I ordered. "Pushy much." I rolled my eyes. He did as I asked. I sat on him and massaged his back. "That feels goooood." I laughed. "Your paying me for this." I told him. "No! Absolutely not." I sighed. "Alright. Flip over. Time for the front." I tried my best to massage him but he keeps laughing. "Ross! Stop laughing." He tried speaking. "It.. It tickles!" I stopped. "OK! I'm done. I give up" He grabbed my hands. He placed them on his chest. "Your boring me!" I whined. "Oh am I? He picked me up and pushed me against the wall. "What are you planning on doing?" He smiled evilly then kissed me. I wrapped my hands around his neck as he pulled me closer. "Lets watch a movie." I whispered against his lips. "Christmas movie?" I nodded. He put in a christmas carol. "Is that what snow looks like?" I asked. "Yeah. It's really fun!" I curled up to Ross. He put his arm around my shoulder. He began humming something. "What song is that?" I asked. "I'll show you." He grabbed my hand and dragged me to the basement. He pulled out his guitar and started to sing.

Oh oh Christmas is coming
Those elves and reindeer are running
And I just want you by my side

Santa, is coming to town
And you're not gonna be around
This snow, is bringing me down
'Cause tomorrow's gonna be a big day
And you're worlds away

I'd give anything
If we'd could sing
Fa la la la La la la la la la la

Oh oh Christmas is coming
Those elves and reindeer are running
And I just want you by my side

This year, the season is crazy
Snow globes, that somebody's shaken
That's what makes it Christmas time

Presents, under the tree
Could never mean as much to me
As you here
hat's why I believe
That when I see Santa's sleigh
Heading this way

He's gonna hear my wishes
And know I miss ya
Fa la la la La la la la la la la

Oh oh Christmas is coming
Those elves and reindeer are running
And I just want you by my side

This year, the season is crazy
Snow globes, that somebody's shaken
That's what makes it Christmas time

If we could all be together
In crazy Christmas sweaters
I know that Santa hears me
Loud and clear
Don't ya hear me now

Oh oh Christmas is coming
Those elves and reindeer are running
And I just want you by my side

This year, the season is crazy
Snow globes, that somebody's shaken
That's what makes it Christmas time [x2]

Oh o woah
Oh o whoah oh
That's what makes it, makes it Christmas time

I clapped. "I like that song." He smiled. "Thanks. It's an r5 song." He put his guitar back down. "So what do you want for christmas?" I asked. "I already have it." I gave him a puzzled look. "I have you. I don't need anything." I blushed. "Aw. Thanks but I'm still getting you something." I said. "OK. Me too." He smiled and pecked my lips lightly.
