In A Winter Wonderland
Chapter 11
Two weeks passed and it was already Christmas morning. It was
just me and my mom. I gave up on calling my dad. I sent him a
locket with a picture inside of me and him as a Christmas
present. I got nothing. I gave my mom her present which she
loved, and I got a new hair straightner and iphone and clothes.
At 3 I ran over to Ariel's house to give her the present I
got her. It was a cute aqua shirt with a brown jacket. It would
look great on her. I knocked on the door and her mom answered.
"Oh hi, Danni! Merry Christmas! Come on in. Ariel is in the
living room with Ryan. They're just exchanging gifts.
"Oh... should I come back later?" I asked, feeling like
I was intruding. "Oh no, I'm sure it's fine."
Ryan and Ariel were steady now and I was so happy for her.
She's happier than she's ever been and Ryan is... well
Ryan. Seeing them together makes me want a boyfriend badly. I
walked into the living room to see her opening her present.
"Awweh! This is the scarf I wanted! Thanks Ryan! Love
you!" She pecked him on the cheek. "Hey.. Am I
interuppting?" I asked. "Danni! Hey! Come in! Your
present is right here." Ariel exclaimed. I opened it and
recieved a beautiful pair of brown feather earrings with a couple
of bottles of nail polish. "Ariel! I love it! Thanks so
much!" I gave her a hug. She opened hers and loved it as
well. We heard a knock at the door. "I'll get it!"
Ariel said. It was just me and Ryan in the living room. It was so
awkward. None of us said a word. Ariel came back with Drew behind
her. "Hi Danni." Drew said. "Merry
Christmas...this is for you.." He handed me a small box. I
opened it and a silver necklace with a $10 starbucks giftcard was
inside. "Oh gosh.. thanks Drew..I didn't get you
anything I feel horrible." I said. "Don't worry
about it.. I have to run. But have a good Christmas! Bye Ariel,
Ryan." They waved and he ran off. "Aw! He is
adorable!" Ariel said. "Yeah, just
adorable." Ryan muttered.
