ricky
nini told me she unlocked the door so i just opened it. i walked in and took my shoes off and tried to be extra careful of where i stepped. i almost knocked down the christmas tree. don't ask. luckily, i made it up the stairs quickly and quietly but then gina comes out of her room.
"i will beat your ass. who the hell are you?" gina says with her fists up.
"my name is richard bowen and i'm just an innocent child." i whisper quickly with my hands up.
"what are you doing here ricky?"
"nini had a bad dream."
"oh. i'm going back to sleep. don't make to much noise." she smirked at me.
"shut up." i say going into ninis room. "hey bunny." i whisper.
"hey." she sniffs hugging me. i rub her back.
"you okay?" she nods. we hug for a while. "you should get some sleep."
"can you stay?"
"of course." we lay down. she wraps her arms around my torso. i put my arm around her and kiss her forehead. "night bug."
"good night."

nini
i woke up and ricky was gone. i looked at the clock and it was 9:42 am. he probably left once i went to sleep. i went down stairs to eat breakfast. gina was on her phone eating pancakes she made.
"morning." she said.
"morning." i say.
"i almost killed your boyfriend last night." i stop and remember my dream from last night. "sorry."
"it's fine." i try to brush off the feeling.
"you going to the party?"
"i basically have to. ej is forcing everyone to go." i grab a plate and some pancakes on it. i put some butter on them and some syrup on them. i sit next to gina and start eating. "i like having you here."
"i like being here. it's nothing like living with my mom. it's so lively and fun here." i smile. we continue talking about random topics and eating. once we're both done we start getting ready for the party.

 once we're both done we start getting ready for the party

"omg you lol great, neens!" gina says to me as i come out of my room.
"no you look great, gin!" i say as we walk downstairs.
"we look great together."
"i'm gonna have to agree with that."
"you guys ready to go?" mama c asks. the christmas and thanksgiving party's are the only party's that the parents are allowed to go to. usually we spend new years with only each other.
"yup." gina says.
"did you guys plan this?" mama c asks referring to out outfits. i didn't even realize we were wearing the christmas colors.
"actually we didn't. i didn't realize 'til now." i say as i grab the presents i bought and walk outside and put them in my car. gina and i are riding together. we also have to go pick up mylie, zoey and charlotte. the car is gonna be packed but i don't mind. i don't think they will either.

as i start the car, gina turns on the radio and royals by lords was playing. gina and i love this song.
"I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address
In the torn-up town, no post code envy
But every song's like gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your time piece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals (royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
You can call me Queen Bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
Let me live that fantasy
My friends and I? We've cracked the code
We count our dollars on the train to the party
And everyone who knows us knows that we're fine with this
We didn't come from money
But every song's like gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your time piece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care we aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals (royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
You can call me Queen Bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
Let me live that fantasy
Oooh ooooh ohhh
We're bigger than we ever dreamed
And I'm in love with being queen
Oooooh ooooh ohhhhh
Life is great without a care
We aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals (royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler (ruler)
You can call me Queen Bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
Let me live that fantasy." we sang as i drove. zoey and charlottes house was about 15 minutes away from mine. so gina and i were singing for a while but i didn't mind.

"merry christmas ej." i say as we walk inside. not many people are here yet but that will change pretty quickly. people started showing up as we got settled.
"merry christmas neens." mylie says sitting down next to me on the couch and hugging me.
