"Okay" Leo says carrying the bag over and sits down next to me.
He opens the bag and hands me the first present.
"And the first one is, Will" i say looking at one of Alex's friends I met at Halloween
"That's me" he says and I stand up and walk over to him and his jaw drops before looking back at his friends
"It's Ella!" He whispers to them and their jaws drop
"Don't say anything" I mumble to him and he nods, "merry Christmas"
"You too" he says smiling at me
It's been hour and a half and we're coming to the end of the bag.
"Do we have a Bethany?" Leo asks
"Me! Me! That's me!" She says jumping up from her seat and i chuckle as Leo gives her the presents
"Thank you!" She says
"It's no problem" he says
"Rex" i say reading the name tag of the next present, "like toy story"
"Yes! That's me! I love that film! It's so good, I don't like the third one, it's scary" he says and i nod
"I get that, I was crying" i say
"You were having a mental breakdown" Leo scoffs
The toys are going to get burnt alive, that film traumatised me Leo" i say and they all laugh
I turn to Rex, "here you go"
"Thank you" he says hugging me and I hug him back
"It's no problem" I say smiling
"Only two left" Leo says
"Next it's georgie" Leo says
"That's me" a shy little girl says and Leo smiles
"Here you go, merry Christmas" he says
"Merry Christmas, thank you" she says smiling fiddling with her jumper
I smile at her before turning my attention to Leo.
"Last one?" I ask and he nods
"And finally" Leo says handing me it.
"Alex" i say
I stand up and walk over to him, "merry Christmas cranky"
"Thanks, you know you didn't have to do all of this" he says
"I know, I just wanted to" I say and he smiles
"Can we open then?" A voice asks
"If you want to, but you can wait till Christmas if you want to" Julie says and some people waste no time in opening them.
Including Ryan and i chuckle.
"Fuck off" he says and looks up at me, "you got me a new phone?"
"Yeah, well you smashed yours on Halloween" i say
"Thank you!" He says before hugging me and I laugh and hug him back
"What did you get Alex?" Ali asks
"Milka!" Will says, "so your the mystery person who has got him obsessed with this chocolate"
I chuckle, "can't help it, it's great"
"What's that?" Emily asks
"A medal" Alex says with a smile on his face
I got him a medal, not a real one. It's fake but I got it engraved with it saying, "I destroyed Lily at mini golf"
He laughs and smiles at me, "thanks Lil"
"No problem, cranky. But we are never playing mini golf ever again"
"I don't know, I liked some parts of it" he says and i blush remembering how he helped me.
"Lil, have you heard from Emma?" Leo asks walking up to me on his phone
"She went out with Cruz for the day, he's visiting her with Romeo and Mia" i say
"Why didn't she tell me?" He asks
"Because you didn't ask" I say, "that and you were too busy eating all of that food last night"
"Oh yeah" he says and i chuckle
"Alex, this is my brother Leo" i say
"Hey, what's up?" Alex asks shaking his hand
"Not much, you?" Leo asks
"Not a lot, Lily said you have a twin? What's that like?" Alex asks
"It's cool, she's boring though" he says and I scoff
"She's better than you" i say and he glares at me
"Rude, just rude" he says
"It's the truth" I mumble and Alex smiles at me
"Lily!" A voice says and i turn around to see Alice
"Hey Alice" i say
"Let's go watch the film!" She says taking my hand and dragging me across the room.
I chuckle and look back at them who just have amused expressions on their faces.
She sits down on the sofa and I sit next to her.
"If you stay awake, I'll watch high school musical" a voice says and I look up and see Alex
"Deal" i say
He walks around for sofa and sits down next to me.
We're now an hour in and I'm struggling to stay awake.
It's not like the movies bad, it's just that I fall asleep easily listening to music and tv.
I feel my head falling and i rest it on Alex's shoulder.
"Tired?" Alex whispers and i nod
"Looks like I'm not watching it then" he says
"Oh I don't care" I mumble and he chuckles

"Your kidding me, she didn't actually fall asleep did she?" I hear Leo asks
"She was asleep when Alice drank that dodgy drink" I hear Alex says and i hear people laugh.
"Lil, wake up" i hear Alex whisper to me and I open my eyes
"Will you shut up? I'm sleeping here" i say and people laugh
"Lily, Leo. Your mum wants you back, it sounds urgent" Jimmy says and I cringe
"What is it now" I grumble sitting up
"Come in lily, let's go" Leo says and i nod
I stand up, "I'll see you at work"
"See you tomorrow" he says and I walk towards the front of the room
"It was lovely meeting you all!" I say
"Bye everyone" Leo says waving
"Bye!"
I wave at them all before following Leo and Jimmy out of the door.
