“What’s up?â€? I say.

“Going somewhere?â€? He questions.

“Ya, I forgot to give my friend her gift.â€? I lie.

“Oh, well be back soon,â€? he smiles and kisses me on the cheek.

He walks away and I pound down the stairs almost missing a step.

“I’m going out to give a gift to a friend that I forgot about!â€? I yell to my parents.

“Ok, but…â€? I hear something muffled as I shut the door and unlock my car.

I look around and it’s pitch black. I open my phone and check the time. It’s nine thirty, oh well. Going into my car, I start the car, and turn on the heat. Looking in the back seat, I see the gift that I had forgotten before. I shake my head. Driving quickly to his house, I sing loudly to some Christmas music as if Chris is there singing along with me. I pull up the drive way, I grab my gift and walk to the door. Just before I knock, the door opens and Chris grins wide.
