Crystals P.O.V
Christmas is in a couple of days and I haven't gotten a present for Erica. It's not that I don't know what to get, I have a ton of choices I just don't know which one to get. I might just get all of them. Erica has invited the pack over to her house on Christmas Eve for a sleep over and gift swap. So this should be fun.
----------------------------
After going shopping with the twins and KiKi. I decided on 2 gifts. Surprise surprise Erica is going to love them, even though she told me not to get her anything. She says I'm all she wants but that's not changing anything and I'm to stubborn to listen. At lunch I decide to give Erica one of her gifts. The Christmas sleepover is tonight so why not.
" surprise surprise!" I yell at Erica as I sit down next to her and hand her a ring box.
" I told you not to..."
"Oh just open it" I cut her off and kiss her cheek.
She opened it then gasped "omg it's wonderful "
It was i sterling silver ring that had a couple of diamonds on it and said 'promise' in cursive, I had a matching one.
"Promise you'll be mine forever?" I ask.
"I promise," Erica says then kisses me. "Promise you won't forget me?"
" I promise " I say, then kiss her again earning awes from people around us.
-----------------
After school we all walk to Erica's house since she is in walking distance and we already have our things. I hate the winter especially since it's known as cuffing season. All you see is a bunch of thirsty guys and girl trying to get with each other. Like no your broke ass needs to go get a sweater not a man. But the winter does have its perks, because then me and Erica can cuddle more and have longer hugs to keep her harm.
Once we get to Erica's house we all put our bags in Erica's room though we will be making a giant fortress to sleep in later on.
"So what now?" Kiaro asks once everyone is settled down in the living room and Erica just stares back with a grin that stretches from ear to ear.
"Snow man building" was all she she and everyone was putting their boots on.
" no thanks I think I'm gonna stay here and raid your kitchen" Kevin says.
"And Ima run up your cable bill" KiKi adds.
"Suit yourself " was all she said before running outside and into the snow. I can tell she's extremely excited.
We all made snowmans in pairs. Keona with Kiara, Erica with me and Kiaro and Sophie just lay in the snow and make snow angels, those lazy asses. It soon escalated to a giant snow ball fight because of Kiaros juvenile behind. When we are all ready to go inside Erica knocks on the door and KiKi opens its with with a rib in her hand. "What the fuck do you want!" She says jokingly.
"Do you want to build a snowman!" Erica says in a sing song way, like she's in frozen. Then we all go inside.
Everyone takes of their stuff and Erica makes hot chocolate while Kevin and Kiaro make the fortress out of pillows, blankets, and sheets. And Keona, Kiara and KiKi argue over what movie to watch. They finally compromise on ' the night before Christmas, how the grinch stole Christmas, Rudolph, and Frosty the snowman' in that order. Erica and I stand in between the intersection of the kitchen and the living room, she hands me my hot chocolate , her nose still red from being cold and I kiss it.
"Well look who's under the mistletoe " KiKi say gleefully making everyone's attention turn towards us.
I look up and there the little bastard is starring right back at me.
