I woke up to the sound of Christmas music being played, quietly downstairs from the radio. I slowly slid out of bed and put a jumper on. I opened my door and walked along the corridor and down the stairs. I found my parents in the kitchen making cups of tea. The both turned around when they realised that I was in the room. I went over to the counter they were working on. "Merry Christmas Sweetheart" Dad said as he wrapped on arm around my side and kissed the top of my head. I then went over to mum and kissed her on the cheek.

I quickly ate my breakfast and then went upstairs to get ready. I had a quick shower and dried my hair. I chose to wear my black leggings with a black crop top and a long flannel shirt with it. I also put my Festive socks on with penguins on them which me and Nat have a thing for. I then curled the ends of my hair. I then started my make-up which was concealer, foundation, powder, mascara and eyeliner. Once I had finished it was nearly 12 as I woke up quite late. We have always opened all our present round the Simpson's after lunch.

I headed downstairs to see my parents putting all the presents in the car. Now that I'm older I get my own presents for everyone in Manchester. Once all the the presents were in the car, we locked the house and all got in.

It only took us a few minutes to drive round. We pulled up into there driveway and began getting out of the car. I helped get the presents out of the boot as I heard the front door open. I saw Nat standing at the door with huge grin on her face. Once we had all the bags out of the car we headed inside. I ran straight to Nat who wrapped her arms around me.
"Merry Christmas Ab." She said in my ear.
"Merry Christmas Nat." I replied.

I took my shoes off and showed Natalie my socks, who had matching pair on. Mum went into the kitchen to see Anne and Dad went into the lounge to talk to Nat's Dad about stuff that men talk about.

"Just gonna warn you, there both cuddled up with each other and being all cute." Nat whispered making a disgusted face. By they she meant Brad and Lily. I just nodded.

Nat then dragged me into the lounge and we sat on the sofa by the Christmas tree. Opposite us were Brad and Lily, like Nat said, they were cuddled up. Brad sent me a smile which I returned. He had his Arctic Monkeys shirt on with skinny jeans. Lily wore leggings and what looked like one of Brads t-shirts.

Nat and I started talking about the Christmas presents we got our parents when we then looked over at Brad and Lily and they were snogging.

"Right that's it, we're going to go help mum in the kitchen otherwise I think I might actually throw up" she said. Nat then decided to drag me by my arm out of the room as all I could do was laugh.
