I sat on the couch. I waited silently for Clive and the Professor to come home. I wanted to get the whole of Team Layton together today. It couldn't wait another day.

I heard the door close. "Good afternoon." The Professor's words alerted me to his presence.

"Ready for the meeting?" Clive asked.

I'm assuming Foliis nodded here. "Yep. Take a seat."

"What did you want to talk to us about, Faith?" Flora asked a few seconds later.

"Well, I was thinking that since Christmas is in 21 days, we could do a Secret Santa thing. Foliis and I made cards with all of our names on it. Foliis,the hat?" I replied.

I heard her footsteps start and echo away. When she came back, Foliis probably let everyone pick out their names. The hat was empty except for two papers.

I let my fingers do the deciding. They closed around one of the papers. I unfolded it and tapped Foliis' shoulder. "Who'd I get?"

Foliis most likely read it before whispering the name in my ear. "Clive."

Oh, great. I had heard Foliis whispering to herself while looking out the window. Things like, "Clive, that adorable idiot," "I think he's kinda cute,""How the heck did he solve that darn puzzle?" were rather common. Now I got her crush in the Secret Santa.

GOSH I HAVE AWFUL IDEAS!

I nodded. "How about you?"

"I got Emmy. Want to go shopping tomorrow?" Foliis replied.

I shrugged. "Sure."

I began thinking about what I would get Clive. Foliis would probably know. Or at least have an idea.

BECAUSE, GOSH I HAVE AWFUL IDEAS!!!!!!!!
