Summer woke me up at 8am, she always get's excited at Christmas that's why I've been woken up so early. We went into the lounge together and there were presents everywhere, loads of them were from me to Summer because I recognized the wrapping paper but their was a lot in wrapping paper I didn't recognize. This is the first proper Christmas where I've spent a load on Summer and not have to worry about needing the money for other things.

"Go on." I smiled at Summer as she basically dived into her presents, I went to the kitchen while still watching her open everything I got her as I made us some hot chocolate. 

"Valley, Niall got me a present!" She thanked me for the hot chocolate as I sat it on the table. 

"Open it then," I smiled as she pulled the lid of the big box open and she smiled pulling out a purple guitar. "Since when did you want a guitar?" I asked as a big grin appeared on her face. 

"I was talking to Niall about it a while ago, I said I wanted to learn, I didn't think he'd remember." She strummed all the strings. "I can't believe he knew my favourite colour was purple too, Valley you have the best boyfriend in the whole world!" As she finished, my laptop started to beep and I realized I was getting a Skype call. 

"Oh look, you can tell him your self!" I said to Summer while answering the call.  "Merry Christmas, blue eyes." I smiled as his face appeared on my screen. 

"Merry Christmas, beautiful." I chuckled because I hadn't even brushed my hair today and he still calls me beautiful. 

"Merry Christmas Niall, thank you for the guitar, I love it!" Summer jumped into the shot with the guitar in hands. "I hope you're going to be the one that teaches me." She yelled with excitement.

"I sure will, don't you worry." Summer then went back to her presents. 

"What did Santa Claus bring you?" I asked with a big yawn because it still was only like 9am.

"Well, I have 2 favourite gifts, the first one was Theo's hand print on a mug for me and that pillow you got me." I had gotten him this pillow with loads of different pictures of us together because I know he'd rather the sentimental presents. Summer helped me with it because what I didn't know is that Summer that has been taking secret pictures of Niall and I, so that's what the majority of the pictures were. She's always doing that, taking pictures of everything and anything which is kinda weird. 

"Aw, sweetie!" I laughed as he brought the pillow into the shot and he hugged it, he looked so cute. 

"I wish you were here with me," he pouted his bottom lip our and I rolled my eyes at him.

"Well, I will see you on the 29th." I added and a small smile added to his cute little face. 

"I guess that's as good as I'm going to get," he mumbled as somebody knocked on my door. 

"Niall, I have to go but I call you back later, okay?" I asked and he nodded. I blew him a kiss "I'll call you later." He caught my kiss and waved as I hung up the call. "Are you expecting anyone?" I asked Summer getting off the couch as she was sat on the floor with her guitar and phone trying to learn some stuff. 

"No, I'm seeing Jake tomorrow and you know Niall is in Ireland so who else could it be?" She asked grabbing her hot chocolate. I shrugged and opened the door to someone I haven't seen since he was 16 years old, I can't believe he hasn't changed that much over the years that I've not seen him. I just stood frozen as he kept his hands in his pocket while looking at me. "Who is it Valley?" Summer asked walking to the door in her Christmas pyjamas and her hot chocolate in her hands. 

"Umm...." My voice trailed off as Summer just looked completely blank. "Cole, what...?" My voice trailed off again, I felt like someone had punched me in the stomach.
