“What was that all about?” I asked as threw the remains of the ornaments in the garbage. Kevin looked over at Joe who looked over at me, again.
“I have no clue!” said Joe walking back into the living room.
“Same here,” said Kevin as he followed Joe. I had to find out. I ran upstairs and stopped right in front of Nick’s room. I looked through a crack in the door. Nick was looking out the window.
“All I wanted was the perfect Christmas,” he said. To tell the truth, the whole vacation has been a disaster. All of it, so far.
“And now, I’m acting like a retard all in front of Jess,”. Nick and I didn’t get a second just to ourselves. Mandy had ruined a lot of it and now, things were starting to get worse.
“It’s all my fault,” said Nick plopping down on his bed. I burst through the door.
“No it isn’t!” I yelped.
“Huh?” said Nick sitting upright.
“It isn’t your fault we’re having a not-so-great Christmas,”.
“It isn’t?”
“No!”
“Yes it is!”
“No, you, just, disappeared, that’s all.”
“Well there’s a reason….”.
