Christmas Special Part 1

   " You've done nothing? Wooooow," he said rolling his eyes. 

  " I'm done. This is ridiculous." I said stomping towards the door so he could let himself out.

   " No baby please. Don't leave me! I love you." Sadly I don't love him back. " I'll change. Can we please just go back to the way we were."

   End of Flashback

    " Toni, get out of the car!" yelled my mom. I walked out the car towards the house grabbing my bags. 

    " Oh no Toni, I can carry the bags," said Adam. 

  " No thank you I got it." I grumbled. Yeah I'm still being a jerk to him. It's just an instinct. I trudged through the snow and finally knocked on the door. 

   " Oh Toni sweetie, I missed you so much." said my grandma, giving me a hug that enabled me to breath. " You're mother says you've been sleeping and that you've gotten better."

 " Yeah I guess." I said with a sad smile. She pulled me into the house, which smelled of cookies and pie. Grandma is a huge decorater and Christmas is her favorite holiday. She reminds of the old fashioned type of grandma's you see on tv. Making quilts, knitting, making breakfast, and never really see her angry. 

  " You know, everyone isn't coming for the Christmas Eve games till later. You can sit down and relax if you want." said my grandma disapearing into the kitchen. I nodded and headed to my room. I looked out the window to see  the guy next door. He was listening to music and stared right at me. He made a motion that was telling me to come here. 

 " Me?" I said as if he could hear me and pointed at myself. He nodded and walked away. Okay. Well I'm not doing anything so I might as well. I put my boots back and walked down the stairs.

   " Where are you going Toni?" asked my grandma.

 " Just outside for a walk." I said shutting the door. As if I'm going to tell her I'm going to his house. She'd yell at me till the end. It's not like we're dating. She doesn't even know I date Brendan for Christ sake. And I don't feel like being questioned.

  I knocked on the door, waiting. This is a stupid idea. I've visited my grandma plenty of times and I've never talked to him. He could be a murderer. 

   " Hey. You can come on in," he said opening the door. He was waaaay taller than me. I walked in the house and sat on he couch. The couch smelled of cigarettes. " So what's your name?"

 " Toni. And yours?" I questioned.

   " Ryland. You know it's odd that we've never talked to eachother. Your always coming to this place." he said with a chuckle.

  " My grandma said to stay away from you, because you apparently look like trouble. I think you just as normal as any other teenager." I replied. " Where's your family it's Christmas Eve by the way."

    " Party. Probably won't be back till late." I saw him look at a picture on his phone. It was a girl. She had purple hair, and brown eyes. She had a nose piercing. She looked like a scene girl I'd usually see on Tumblr.

  " She's pretty," I whispered.

    " Yeah and I miss her like hell," he said still staring at his phone. " I hope that she comes back soon, because I wanted to spend Christmas with her."

  " If you're alone you can spend it at my grandma's. I'm sure she won't mind." 

    " Really?"

  " Yup."

  I walked back home after spending time with Ryland. He's actually really nice and cooks very well. He's in love and is planning to propose to his girlfriend soon. I'm sure it's going to go great. I opened the door and some family members were sitting on the couch, talking and drinking hot cocoa.

   " Oh Toni sweetie, you never said you had a boyfriend," said my grandma. " Let me see a picture." shit. I grumbled kicking off my boots and snatching my phone from my pocket. I showed her my scrensaver, which was of me and Brendan. " Oh he's a nice lookig man, but I have a wierd feeling about him."

 " He's nice grandma." I said with a smile. 

 " Hey cousin!" squealed my cousin Les. She hugged me and let go with a big smile. She's my favorite cousinn and she's 20. She very enthusiastic and helpful. She's always and I mean always right. " I haven't seen you since the thing that happened at boarding school. Are you better?"

   " Yeah. Way better. Fantastic. Stupendous....awesome?" I said oddly. I need more adjectives.

  " That's great. Heard you have a boyfriend. I know his brother. I slept with him. He's also all over the news, because his business is falling since he's in jail."

  " Oh..wait how do you know his brother?"

   " I went to school with him. I also slept with him. He's prettygood by the way."

 " Okayyyy, grandma, do you have cookies?" I asked pulling away.

    " They're in the kitchen Toni," she said with a grin. I nodded and rushed into the kitchen. I just want to eat some chocolate chip cookies. 

    " Oh hey Toni," said my cousin Seth.

  " Sup, howya been?" I said giving him a hug. Seth's pretty nerdy. He is absolutely adorable and is really protective. He's like a older brother. 

     " Good. I just haven't been doing the best my sophmore year. Girls don't find me appealing." he said staring at the floor.

  " Hey you're adorable, sweet, and nerdy. What girl doesn't want that. If we weren't related, I'd probably like you." I said with a smile. He looked down at me with a wierd face. " I'm sorry that sounded way better in my head."

    " It's okay, but thanks."

   " I talked to the guy nextdoor. He's really cool."

    " YOU WHAT!" screamed my mom. Woah..nosey much. " You talked to that thing."

  " Mom he's not a thing. He's actually really nice. I offered him to come over for Christmas dinner if his family doesn't make it. I'm being nice." I said laughing.

    " Oh...alright. Adam sweetie, can you get me drink." asked my mom. Adam nodded and walked over by me, grabbing a drink. I knocked into him on purpose, sending the drink onto his shirt.

    " Augh, fuck that burns!" he yelled. 

  " Oh my goodness, I'm sorry. I was an accident I promise." I said walking towards the couch.
