"Wake up Vel it's Christmas!" three screaming children yelled into my ear, I flinched and covered my ears.
"I'm awake." I sighed getting up and walking down to the tree, my mother was working today so we decided to have Christmas here for the kids.
"Can I open this one first?"
"No I wanna open mine first!"
"Me first!"
"No me!"
The yelling went on for a few minutes as I smiled goofily and Brandon just tried to get them apart, finally I yelled.
"Ay!" I screamed getting their attention.
"Yes?" Gracy asked with wide eyes.
"We will open our gifts like this, Farah first, then Jean, then Gracy, me, and Brandon." I smiled handing out the gifts.
"Why do I have to go last?" Brandon asked pouting.
"Because your old." I teased sticking my tongue out.
"Don't stick your tongue out at me missy." he smiled warningly.
"LET ME OPEN MY GIFTS!" Farah screamed, I turned shocked.
"Go ahead..." Brandon said shocked, I started laughing at his face.
All of the kids opened their gifts and squealed and giggled and played with everything, making Brandon and I open them right away. Finally we got to my turn, I smiled and opened the gift form the kids. It was a pretty outfit, grey shirt, blue skinnies, some cute flats and a bow to go on my hair.
"Thank you guys!" I smiled hugging them.
"Your welcome!" they all chorused.
"Now open mine!" Brandon said handing it to me smiling like a retard.
"Okay." I said smiling, I opened the medium sized box and then found another box... And another.... And another.... And another, "Oh my gosh when will this end?!" I cried. After a few more boxes I got to a really small one, I smiled and opened it gasping.
"Do you like it?" Brandon asked with worry in his voice.
"Brandon.... It's beautiful...." I couldn't stop gawking at the beautiful necklace. I read the box it was in, 14kt. Silver gold.... I couldn't believe it..
"You okay?" Brandon asked.
"I'm fine... It's just... Wow.... It's beautiful Brandon." I said, twirling the heart shaped necklace in my hand.
"He went to Jared!" all the kids suddenly screamed, I couldn't contain my laughter, I laughed my ass off.
"Okay open your gift now." I said laughing and handing him both his gifts.
"Okay." he smiled opening the kids' gifts first, "Thank you guys!" he said hugging them and pulling his hat on and smiling at his new Nikes.
"Now open mine!" I squealed hoping he would like it.
He practically ate the paper off, revealing a box and ripping that open. His eyes widened and his face glowed and a huge smile spread across his face.
"Wow.... Thank you Vel." he said kissing my cheek lovingly.
"You like it?" I asked looking at the pretty watch.
"I love it." he said kissing my lips this time.
"Eww!" the kids screamed running into the kitchen.
"I do love it." he said reassuring me and running into the kitchen proudly putting on his watch.
I smiled at the necklace he gave me, boy was it beautiful. I lifted it up to put it on but two hands took my place and clasped it on, "Thank you." I said gazing into Brandon's beautiful blue eyes.
"It's a mans job." he smiled kissing me.
"Velanie we're hungry!" Gracy yelled from the kitchen.
"I'm coming!" I yelled back smiling.
"Come on before they eat me and my new awesome watch." he smiled gleaming and dragged me to the kitchen.
"What do you guys want?" I asked grabbing pans.
"Pancakes!" they screamed, I laughed and began making twenty pancakes, after all, they ate a lot. I made eggs and bacon too, it was Christmas, and we were going to have a nice meal.

After breakfast we played with their new toys and sat down to watch movies. We watched Nemo, Bambi, How The Grinch Stole Christmas, and Fox and the Hound. After that everyone was asleep and it was only seven. I smiled and carried Farah into the guest room while Brandon brought in Gracy and I went back for Jean. We shut the door quietly and went up to my bedroom, I plopped on my bed and sighed into the covers.
"Tired?" Brandon asked laying next to me.
"A little yeah." I yawned rolling over.
"Want to watch a movie?" he asked.
"Another?" I groaned.
"Well.... We could just hang out..." he suggested.
"Yeah let's do that." I smiled and cuddled into him.
"So I have a question Vel..." he hesitated.
"Yes?" I asked.
"Why does your dad want to see you?" he asked, my heart stopped... The whole time he had been in the back of my head, not bugging me at all, I pretty much forgot...
"I don't know." I sighed feeling scared and alone... It was like I was little again.
"Well, whatever his reason, I'll make sure he comes no where near you." he smiled kissing my lips.
"My hero?" I giggled.
"Always." he laughed kissing me again.
"Brandon...." I hesitated.... Could I say this?
"Yes?" he asked looking down at me.
"I.... I... I want to tell you something, but it has a downside to it... I don't know how to say it..." I groaned.
"Just say it." he said smiling.
"I love you, I truly do, but I'm not ready to forgive you yet..." I sighed, gosh he must hate me right now..
"I love you too, and like I said. I will wait forever." he grinned kissing my forehead.
"You know the odds are against us right?" I asked thinking about it.
"How?" he asked.
"You were pretty much raised by a broken family, a drunk mother at that, and I was abused for five and a half years, and now my mother's a single mother. They say most kids with broken or abusive families, they don't turn out good." I sighed.
"That's what they say, but they haven't met us yet. We'll beat all odds." he smiled and kissed my lips and pulled me under the covers with him. We snuggled together and I took in his smell, how that smell killed me... Could we beat the odds? I hoped we could....
***The End of Chapter 10? I can't ever remember, but tada! Hahah, so I like this chapter, it's cute, but short. I don't like that part but whatever.(: So comment, vote, like, tweet, become a fan?(: Love you guys later♥***
