Part 7- Christmas Eve

~~1 Day~~

~~1 Day~~

It's Christmas Eve, and I'm so excited! today I'm going to finish wrapping presents, and then Michael and I are going to his mother's for dinner and such... I love his family, and haven't seen them in such a long time!

I look over at Michael sleeping soundly next to me. I quietly sneak out of the room, into my office.

I hid everyone's presents, that I haven't wrapped yet, In the closet, that's in my office. The others are downstairs under the tree.

I close the door quietly, since my office is right down the hall from our bedroom. I lock it just incase Michael Wakes up.

I walk over to my desk and open the top drawer, pulling out my scissors and tape. I set them on the floor, as I get the presents, bags and wrapping paper out of my closet.

"Okay..." I sigh under my breath. I start with Michaels little sister, Janet's present. We got her a big Barbie make up set, she's been asking for it since forever.

I pick out pink wrapping paper, and green and gold ribbon. I open the wrapping paper up and place the box on it. I measure and cut it, tape it, and finish it off with a bow and tag. I smile, admiring my work.

I do that with all the presents, different colours of wrapping paper though.

After I finish them all, I put them all in a big bag. I pick the bag up, and unlock the door. I quietly tip toe down the hall with the bag. I walk up to the tree and take out each present and place them under it.

"Beautiful!" I say to myself. I hear Michael walking down the stairs.

"What's beautiful?" He asks walking over to me. "You?" He smiles, holding my waist behind me.

I giggle "no... Well, i am..... Hehe, I was talking about the tree."

"It's very nice... You did a great job... Hungry?" He asks me.

I turn around, "I'll make breakfast."

"No, babe... I'll make it today, you've done a lot lately... You just relax." I sit on the couch, he passes me the remote.

"Thanks Michael! You're so sweet!" We kiss and he heads off to the kitchen.

---that evening---

"Did you get all the presents?" I ask Michael, who's carrying the bag of presents for his family.

"Yes, I did, what about the salad?"

"Yup, got that..... Okay, I think we're good then" I nod my head looking around, "let's go!"

We pull up in the driveway of Michaels parents house (havenhurst) he takes the presents and i take the salad, we head in.

"Uncle Michael!" All his nieces and nephews run up hugging him, Then hugging me.

"Hey everybody!" He greets them. We see his mother. "Hello, mother." He hugs and kisses her.

"Nice to see you both... Oh, here, I'll take that for you dear." She takes the salad bowl out of my hands.

"Thank you Katherine." I smile. We head into the living room where the rest of the family was.

Michael sets the bag of presents by the tree and we greet the rest of his family.

"Hey guys!" Jackie, his brother says. We both hug him, he kisses my hand, "Breeanna, of course looking better than ever." I blush, thanking him.

We say hello to the rest of his family members. Then we see his sister Janet, who's only about 7 years old. She walks down the stairs and when she sees Michael she screams, "Mikey!!!" And runs across the room to him.

"Hey dunk! Nice to see you, how've you been?" Michael asks her.

"I've been great! So excited for Santa Claus to get here, are you?" She smiles widely.

Michael looks up at me smirking, then back down at her, "yes of course..."

---later---

We just finished supper and we are all stuffed. "Ugh... I ate too much food" Michaels brother Tito says, holding his stomach.

"I don't think I ever ate that much in my life..." His sister Latoya says.

Michaels mother leans over to us and whispers, "when should we start presents?"

We shrug, "Maybe around 7 should be good." It was around 6:30 now, and we thought that would be enough time for people to digest their food.

---7pm---

"Who's ready for presents?" I yell out. All the kids scream of joy running over to sit under the tree.

Janet sits on Michaels lap, I smile at how close those two were, it was the cutest site.

Michael digs into the bag handing each present out one by one. Hot wheels, to trains, to Barbie dolls, to hair extensions. Then he pulls out the last present, for Janet.

She rips it open and says, "oh my gosh! I love it, thank you so much Michael and Breeanna! You're the best brother and sister anyone could ever ask for!" She hug both of us. I smile, I love giving to kids, seeing their faces when they open it.

When we were finished opening, Janet comes over to me and asks, "Bree... Maybe later will you do my makeup for me?"

I smile, "yes of course Jan! I would Love to..."

After that Michael and I head back home, and to sleep, I had no clue what would be happening just a few hours from then...
