'Started with a' series

Started with christmas shopping

"Hhm. I would've called you if I had your number. Why did you move out all of a sudden like that?" I asked curiously.

"Mom and Dad died in a car crash." She said monotonously like she had said it one too many times.

"Vennesa I'm really sorry. Oh my god I didn't know"
"It's okay." She said.

"So about those orders?" She asked.

"Yeah those are for mom, dad and Jenna and Tim and Uncle John and (lets out a huff of air) You know my family. Haha" I said.

"I'm so sorry Gary but we can't supply the products right now. I hope you understand." She apologised.

"It's okay. So you work for an online company. Wow!" I said genuinely happy for her.

"Yeah. I'm the manager." Her smile prominent in her voice.

"Woah! Why would a manager call every single customer to apologize? I feel honored." I joked.

"Eh well I love all my customers equally. You see they pay me." She laughed out. Yup the same old Kit Kat.

"I'll better line up in the mall then." I said.

"You better."

"Sure. We need to catch up on a lot of things." I said.

"I know right. So today?" She offered.

"Yea sure. Lets meet up for lunch at.."

I was now patiently waiting for Vennesa like we had planned. I was about to text her when I saw the blonde walking towards me . She looked beautiful as always if not more . She wore a plain cream over-sized sweater, some black leggings, and a long coat. It was so...her.

"Hi Garyboy."She said as the shine in her eyes brightened.

"Hey!" I said as I slipped my hand into her coat pocket, intertwined our hands and gave her something.

She took it out and giggled," Seriously Gary! A Kit Kat?"

"Yea...So how've you been?" We talked and shopped until we realized it was around 5 in the

evening already.

"So I better get going now." We said at the same time as we were walking down the street.

"Okay.See you around now that I have your email ID Miss.Kittensareheretokillyou." I joked. I do that a lot around her.

"Yea whatever you say Garyboy." She said as she started walking away.

"Hey Nessa?" I called.

"Yea?"

"Come spend Christmas with us this year." I offered.

"I don't know..." She trailed off.

"I don't know anything either you have to come. The family's gonna be delighted." I said.

"Okay." She said as I saw colour rising in her cheeks . It was pretty cold outside.

"Great!Goodnight Kit Kat." I said as I walked away.

Christmas Eve

"Merry Christmas!!" Everyone cheered as the clock struck 12. The room was full . There were

mom, dad, uncle John, aunt Ruth, Jenna ,Tim ,grandma, Vennesa and me.

Vennesa and I had arrived just earlier today and as expected she was quickly enveloped into a

hug by mom and I stood there watching their exchange.

Everyone started exchanging gifts as I gave everyone theirs. Nessa had also brought along some

even though I told her not to bring any. Stubborn as always.

We then had a hearty dinner which included my moms 'especial Chritmas Table' because it was

literally magic served on a plate.

Now me and Vennesa were settled on the couch watching some movies my family watches evry

single Christmas.

"Hey!" I nudged her on the arm.

"Hmm?" She said .

"I got you something." I said as took out the little jewelry box from my pocket. How it fit in

there I had no idea.

"You didn't have to." She said as I pushed it in her hands and gestured her to open it.

"It's beautiful." She gasped as she looked at the little silver pendant I had got her.

She turned it around to find the engraved words which read: Fovever.

"Thank you so much Gary. But I din't get you anything." She said with guilt.

"You didn't have to anyw-" I was cut off as I felt her soft lips on mine. I smiled into the kiss as I

happily kissed back.

Yup best Christmas ever.

Dedicated to Shei a.k.a thepurplerose because I support her even though she deleted TTBA even though it was one of my favorites. I absolutely loved it and still have it in my library (thank god)  . :) But she re-wrote it as Sleep Deprived go check it out .
