*Rocky's POV*

Me and the girls had been Christmas shopping and I couldn't wait to see Zuma's face when he saw what I'd got him! To be honest I actually get on ok when I'm with the girls. Don't get me wrong the boys are great and we have loads of fun but...I dunno I guess the girls are just more chilled and sometimes I need that. We were strolling back to the lookout with bags full of presents, fabrics and decorations. All of us were smiling like pixies despite the reindeer antlers that we were wearing (Lexi's idea). After putting our stuff away, hiding it well away, we walked to the TV room where we saw all the other boys sound asleep on their respective beanbags. Lexi laughed and rolled her eyes.

"How long before they start?" Skye asked.

"Hmm. Two weeks maybe?" Everest thought.

"We should be lucky! I bet they'll leave it till Christmas Eve." Lexi said.

"They're not gonna procrastinate that long are they?" I tilted my head. We looked at all of them and listened to the snores.

"Ok Christmas Eve it is." We laughed.

⏱a few hours later ⏱

Austin woke up and walked over to me. We got on ok I guess. He made Lexi happy and that's what matters. It's just...little things like when they hug, she has a certain smile. That's the same smile that she used to give when I gave her hugs as a pup. I guess I feel like he's taking her away from me. Me and Lexi's boyfriend have never seen eye to eye but I kinda tolerate him.

"Rocky?" He stood over me, blocking the winter sun.

"Yeah."

"Can I talk to you about Lexi's Christmas present? I want your advice seeing as you know her best."

"Um sure."

"Not here. Inside maybe?"

I nodded and followed the boy inside. Why would he possibly want my advice?
