Anthony's POV

This isn't really plot progressive but I just wanted to write a Christmas chapter :/ <3

I wake up on Christmas morning to my sister jumping up and down on my bed shouting, "Wake the fuck up Anthony it's Christmas!" This happens every year, she wakes up at silly o'clock and wakes everybody up. Slowly, I make my way out of bed and go downstairs to the living room. I am greeted with many presents under the tree wrapped neatly with bows and placed in piles for each family member. We all sit down on the sofa and start unwrapping our presents one by one. There are about 10 presents for me and 20 for Addy, of course there is. One of my main presents was a new iPhone 10, I also got a panda stuffie which I named Jared. Once we finished opening our presents we played a few board games like monopoly. This ended with the board being flipped and us all in an argument. We all slowly stopped being so petty and started talking to each other again, laughing about childhood memories. One memory which I find especially funny was when it was summer and I was about five and Addy was 7. We were outside in a little kiddy pool enjoying the warm weather which was never an occurrence in England and me and Addy were arguing over a ball that was in the pool. We both wanted to play with it but not with each other.

"Nu, I wan it!" I cried

"Well it's mine you silly boy" my sister shouted.

"Nuuu!" I screamed

I remember my mum saying in the end that if we weren't going to decide who was going to play with it no one will because it was interrupting her work.

We then had a big Christmas dinner which consisted of juicy turkey, roast potatoes, stuffing, baby carrots, mash, parsnips, Yorkshire puddings and gravy. It was so nice but I was very full up after it that I couldn't have dessert which was chocolate cake with custard. Yum! We all then went to my grandmothers house and opened more presents and played more games. By the end of the night my family were so tired we ended up staying there for the night as my Dad was too tired to drive another hour back home. I slept on the sofa with my sister while my Mum and Dad slept on a blow up bed.

Rocco's POV

I woke up on Christmas Day just like any other day. I knew that it wasn't going to be the best day of my life but I could get through it. Creeping downstairs, I could hear my mum and sister cooking breakfast in the kitchen. Before I can make my way to the kitchen I heard my dad shout my name from the living room. I quickly rush in there because I know if I didn't I would've gotten beat. The sight I saw wasn't the best I've seen in my life. The non-decorated living room was dirty and it smelt. My dad was sprawled across the sofa in a wife beater and boxers.

"Hey fag, I've got a present for you." My dad says as he gets up of the sofa slowly making his way over to me obviously still a bit drunk.

"Really where, thank you!" I say excitedly.

"Here." He says as he punches my stomach a punches my chest.

I stop myself from crying because if I did I would've been beaten up even more. My dad goes back to the sofa and takes another sip of his beer when I make my way to the kitchen. When I get there I see my mum taking bagels out of the toaster and my little sister buttering them. When my sister sees me she runs up to me and gives me a breath restricting hug. I try and mask the pain of her squeezing my stomach my dad just took a blow at.

"Merry Christmas Bubba!" She practically screams out.

"Merry Christmas Luna!" I say as I pick her up and attack her with kisses.

"Stop!" She says as I continue doing it just to annoy her.

"Rocco! Put her down." My mother says and I put her down straight away.

I go over to my mum and kiss her on the cheek wishing her a merry Christmas. She pushes me a buttered bagel, eating it fast as this is the first bit of good food I've had in ages.

"Thank you so much mum!" I say genuinely.

I rush upstairs to find the presents I got my mum and sister. I get them and rush downstairs, happy to see their reactions. I got my mum a necklace with a diamond on the front that says her name on it. I spent the last of my savings on that so I hope she likes it. My sisters present was a pink bunny stuffed animal that had Luna stitched into the side of it. I know she'll love it because her favourite animal has been rabbits since she was two.

I make my way into the kitchen and set their presents in front of them. My mum looks up at me, tears in her eyes, and says, "Rocco! You really didn't have to I know you don't have the money."

"Shh, just open it." I tell my mum

My sister and mum start to unwrap their presents and all I hear is my sister scream, "Oh my gosh it's so cute!" and attacks me with one of her iconic hugs. I look over at my mum and realise she is crying. I waddle over there with Luna on my feet and give her a hug.

"It's beautiful Rocco, thank you so much!" She says.

"I got you a present last night but your father threw it in the fire and said you don't deserve presents." She lets out a sob.

"Mum, really, it's fine I don't care I hope you like yours that's all I care about." I say.

That was the last I ate that day because my Dad shouted at my mum when she tried to make me and Luna something. When her and dad were fighting Luna ran inside my room holding onto her bunny crying.

"Bubba I'm scared." She said through her sniffles.

"Come here." I say as she crawls into my bed under my covers and cries into my chest. I cuddle her until she falls asleep and looks peaceful.

"You deserve such a better life angel" I whisper as I fall asleep next to her.
