Hey Keepers! I am going to give you a big chapter today! I can't believe it! I have come so far already.. I think I am going to do 10 more chapters after this and then start a new book. Either a KOTLC Selection Crossover or a KOTLC College AU. Or I could focus on my other story, "Once Upon An After". What do you think? Let me know in the comments below.

Sophie concluded her locker interaction and discovered Liam standing before her, clutching a delicate flower. With a hint of unease in her voice, Sophie greeted him, saying, "Hey Liam." Nervously, Liam responded, "Hi Sophie." Curiosity piqued, she inquired, "So... what's with the flower?" Liam proceeded to explain, "Well, I wanted to ask you something." He extended the flower towards her and continued, "Do you want to go out with me?" Sophie, filled with regret, responded with sincerity, "Liam, I am genuinely sorry, but I don't share romantic feelings for you. You're an amazing person, and I'm confident that you'll find someone who reciprocates your affection."

The day had finally arrived - the much-awaited Christmas break. As the sun's rays filtered through the curtains, Sophie groggily opened her eyes, realizing she had overslept. Panic washed over her, and she hurriedly dashed downstairs, already envisioning the day's plans. She quickly settled into the car, brimming with excitement and anticipation. Today, alongside her dear friend Edaline, she would embark on a joyful journey to acquire essential supplies for the upcoming Christmas party and select new outfits to enhance their festive spirits.


Their first destination was the bustling mall, adorned with sparkling holiday decorations. Sophie and Edaline strolled through the dazzling array of stores, their eyes gleaming with possibilities. Sophie contemplated her choices, ultimately opting for a burgundy dress that exuded an air of modesty, ensuring it wasn't too short. Meanwhile, Edaline's discerning eye led her to a breathtaking turquoise dress, perfectly complementing her mesmerizing eyes. The duo couldn't help but share their excitement and envision the radiant holiday ensembles they would be wearing.


With their dress choices accomplished, Sophie and Edaline redirected their focus to the impending feast, brimming with delectable culinary delights. They made their way to the bustling grocery store, meticulously gathering the necessary ingredients to craft a gastronomic masterpiece. From succulent meats to vibrant fruits and vegetables, their shopping cart soon overflowed with the promise of a delightful feast that would satiate everyone's taste buds.


Having secured the culinary essentials, Sophie and Edaline excitedly proceeded to select the decorations that would transform their homes into enchanting winter wonderlands. Adorned with tinsel, garlands, twinkling lights, and ornaments, their cart was a testament to their creative vision and the shared joy of celebrating this magical time of year.


As the day progressed, Sophie and Edaline made the heartfelt decision to divide their efforts, venturing in separate directions to procure meaningful gifts for their loved ones. Sophie carefully considered each recipient, aiming to find presents that would bring genuine happiness. 


For Edaline, she chose a luxurious pure silk scarf, symbolizing their enduring friendship and adding a touch of elegance to her wardrobe. For Grady, Sophie selected a sleek new watch, recognizing his appreciation for timeless accessories. Hoping her gifts would be well-received, Sophie carried her friends' presents in her heart, eagerly awaiting the moment they would be unwrapped.

Finally, as the sun began its descent, Sophie and Edaline reunited, their shopping adventure complete. Settling into the car, Sophie's thoughts drifted to a rather unexpected figure—Keefe. She couldn't quite pinpoint the reason behind her mind's sudden fixation on him, but there was an undeniable presence lingering in her thoughts. Perhaps it was the excitement of the upcoming festivities, evoking memories of past celebrations and the cherished moments they had shared.Lost in her musings, Sophie gazed out of the car window, watching the world pass by in a blur. The vibrant lights and decorations adorning the streets seemed to dance in synchrony with her racing thoughts. In the midst of the bustling cityscape, she pondered the intricate web of relationships that intertwined her life, contemplating the mysteries that awaited her during this season of love and togetherness.

Today, when it was time we opened our presents, Edaline and Grady loved my gifts. Edaline gave me a new phone and Grady gave me a baseball bat to "keep away boys" as he put it. I loved him all the same. As weird and annoying as my parents were, I wouldn't change my new life for anything.
