Wrapping
*Rubble's POV*
Lexi and the other girls were singing Christmas songs at the top of their lungs when I walked into the room.
"Hey Rubble. You ok?" Lexi asked when she saw me.
"Yeah I was just wandering if you could help me wrap this up?"
"Sure. What is it?"
"Um..." I anxiously glanced at Zaidy who was stood by Lexi's feet. "It's a secret!"
Lexi nodded and said she'd help me after she was done baking more cookies. I loved her Christmas cookies! They were amazing.
"Rocky! I need your help a sec!" Austin yelled from the hall. He was holding a small red bag in his hand and looked really tense.
"Coming!" Rocky hopped down from the sofa and went to help the boy with, what I'm guessing was Lexi's present.
"I'm so glad they're getting on better." Lexi sighed. It was true, Rocky and Austin more or less tolerated each other but now that he was helping the boy, Rocky and Austin has got a bit closer. Maybe to the point of calling each other friends. Okay, maybe not, the only thing Rocky called Austin other than his name, was an idiot.
Later that night, while the others started a movie, Lexi helped me wrap up my gift for Zaidy.
"There." I smiled, pressing a silver bow onto the purple wrapping paper that was neatly covering the gift. "You think she'll like it?"
"Rubble she'll love it." Lexi assured, scratching behind the ear. "Come on, we've only missed the first few minutes of the movie." We ran to the living room and Lexi dived onto the sofa, landing on her boyfriend. They both laughed at her childish nature and got comfortable. Chase, Skye and Blue were cuddled together on a pillow. Marshall and Everest were embraced on the rug by the fire, Marshall was chewing the husky's ear as she cooed onto his chest. Zuma and Rocky joined Lexi and Austin on the sofa, the mixed breed lay on the girls lap and Zuma curled up next to him. Even Ryder and Katie were sat together, cross legged with blankets wrapped around them and mugs of hot chocolate on their hands. So that left Zaidy. She was laying on a pillow by herself watching the film intently. She looked over at me and patted the space next to her, inviting me to sit. I happily joined her and watched the rest of the film. For once, I wasn't entirely focused on the TV screen.
