An Accidental Christmas Film Novels & Stories

—Ricardo was startled by his father's statement and must have understood that I had premeditated that night. ― I had said that I regretted dying without having the joy of seeing a grandchild born and Manuela revealed that she dreamed of having a child with Ricardo. That's why we made our requests to the Universe and it sent us more than two miracles, but three. My health and my two grandchildren. And now I want to make a toast to my Christmas miracles. Everyone raised their glasses. Alice and I had the fruit juice, but it had the same meaning as the champagne they all drank. Later, after the distribution of gifts, I asked Ric if he was disappointed in me and he replied:

So, I had to pick the next best. As I stretched up, my fingertips grazing the edge of the box, my heart was already racing, thinking of the awkwardness of reaching for it in the first place. But just as my fingers brushed against the box, disaster struck. The entire shelf seemed to conspire against me. One by one, pads, tampons, and other assorted products came tumbling down, crashing to the floor with an absurdly loud clatter.

"One more insult from you and I swear I am going to make you pay dearly" "Please do and use a gun, I will be most delighted, I would rather die than choose to be anywhere with you, I don't need you in my life so since you are not going to let me go and intend to trap me for a whole year then kill me. Is an escape for both of us, you can just tell your old woman that I met an accident. She wouldn't doubt you since she thinks you are a saint but has no clue that you are a cold-blooded killer with a frozen heart. I'm sorry, you don't even have one"

I just needed to ignore it. But the phone didn’t stop ringing. I immediately picked it up. “Hey,” Alex said. “Oh hi,” I replied, my voice a little shaky. “Finally I can hear your voice again,” Alex said. “Yes… about… I didn’t do it on purpose.” “Doing what?” Alex asked. “Your photo. I accidentally liked it.” “Oh, I don’t know. I didn’t get any notification about that. I called you because I just came from the dormitory and met Kara,” Alex said.

"I left you for two and a half minutes and you've already become a Barbie for Alice to dress." "I'm made of plastic. It's fantastic!" I shot back, earning another chuckle as he grabbed the remote to press play on "It's A Wonderful Life." Christmas was only a few days away after all, and I had been forcing Edward to watch all my favorite Christmas movies. We had already seen all the Tim Allen Santa Clause movies, as well as National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, and Christmas with the Kranks. Now we were getting deeper into some of the classics. Alice and Edward stiffened at the same time, and as the mood shifted with a sudden urgency, Jasper too stiffened. "What?" I found my voice and laid m

I stroked her wiry coat until she calmed and laid down in my lap. The rest of the car ride to Gretchen's house was quiet. When we got there, we got some snacks together and settled in on the couch, me in the middle and my two best friends on either side. Carol lay on the floor in front of me. We chose an array of Christmas movies, from the classics to some of the newer ones that seemed sure to become classics. Abigail banned me from watching White Christmas. I wasn’t mad about it. I’d watched it too many times the last time I was upset about a guy.

he asked, his hand gently brushing my hair from my face. I took a deep breath, trying to assess my state. “I’m… okay, I think. What happened?” “You slipped and hit your head,” Charlotte said. “It’s Christmas now, dear. You’ve been out for hours.” Christmas? Of course. How fitting that I’d nearly knock myself unconscious during what was supposed to be a magical moment. “Merry Christmas, Callie!” the entire room chorused, their faces lighting up with smiles. “Merry Christmas,” I replied weakly, forcing a smile in return.

Of course, knowing her, she would recover at once and start teasing him. "Are you sure? May I remind you that it's Christmas time and not April Fool's?" "Haha, very funny, Lena. But I'm not joking this time. This time, it's for real and for keeps." "Really now? What makes this one so special?" she answered with a challenging note to her tone. "You have very similar names, Roth is crazy over her scent, and she has kids." Suddenly, the line is filled with awkward silence. "V, she's human? And with her own children too?"

But truth be told, I was getting eager to see Abby, and that eagerness was not letting me sit still and wait. Just as I had hoped, not an hour later, my coworkers started arriving, and Abby was the first to come through the door. As soon as I heard the bell ring, I hurried to the front and pulled her into a hug. “I’m sorry, Abby.” I choked. Melodious laughter rang in my ear as she pulled away. “For what? You didn’t crash my car. Heavens, Chloe, not everything in this world is your fault. Accidents happen.”

That was weird because he had a look in his eyes that she didn't understand. Daniel noticed. “You good? Who's that?” He asked as he got in. “Yeah,” she said. “That’s my colleague. Dr. Davy.” He glanced at the gift bag she was holding. “He came bearing gifts, huh?” She laughed. “It’s Christmas.” “Well,” Daniel said, smiling, “now I need to up my game.” “It’s not a competition,” she said. “You think so?” “I know so.” He started the car. “We’re going skating first. The movie is in three hours.”
