Arti Merry Christmas Eve Novels & Stories

"Leah handled the gifts. Yes, she's fine with it. Stop worrying. You know you're the one I worry about. Leah's strong. She can handle herself." I almost laughed because for once, Evan was right. Christmas Eve arrived white and cold. Evan's flight was at noon. Mine was at two from a private terminal in Teterboro, booked under a name he had never heard anyone say out loud. I dressed in black trousers, a cream sweater, and the camel coat my mother had sent years ago. It had hung in the back of my closet like an accusation, but today it felt like armor.

Aria said. “No, ma’am. Mr. Ferrari doesn't celebrate Christmas. It's always like a regular day here.” “Oh,” Aria muttered and sighed. The maids glanced at each other, noticing her sad expression. “Ma’am, if you want, we can get a little tree and celebrate with you. A few of the maids celebrate Christmas here because we don't get to go home.” The other maid said and Aria faked a smile. “Oh, you don't have to worry. It's fine.” Aria said and they nodded at her.

What was Christmas without all five of us together? *He'll come back,* Artemis insisted, though I could feel her doubt curling beneath the words like smoke. *Hermes promised.* "Promises can't clear twenty-foot snowdrifts," I murmured, my finger tracing the path of a single snowflake as it melted against the window.

He offered his hand. I ignored it and continued lying like a corpse. He sighed. “Aveline.” “This holiday hates me,” I said into the floorboards. “It does not.” “It does.

And after his speech, the countdown started. Mama and papa were on my side, as well as dad and Gabriel, Georgina, Lieutenant Stone, Lawrence, and Georgia too. We stand altogether and watch as everyone counted down. Five..... Four.... Three... Two.. One. December 25, 2050 - 12:00 am. "Merry Christmas!" everyone cheered as colorful fireworks lit up the sky. I didn't know where they got all of these but I'd say they made effort for everything. The cheerful voices of everyone and the Christmas carols that started to play from the speakers I didn't know where brought joy and warmth to my heart.

Aria smirked from behind her mug, feeling satisfied when she saw a smile blossom on Maddie’s face. “Are you gonna come get a cup or is there something in here we should know about?” Aycin asked Maddie which made her smile wider and move to pick up her own cup. “Drew’s right, this is heaven.” Amaya hummed appreciatively. ### The group spent the next few days leading up to Christmas and Christmas day enjoying each others company, they went out skating, built a snowman on Christmas eve and Amaya dragged them to a Christmas musical which ended in them crashing a Christmas house party being thrown by one of Maddie’s fellow models.

she finally admitted. Mariah blinked. "Going where?" Laila shot her a look. "Don't play dumb. You know where." Mariah's mouth slowly spread into a grin. "Ohhh. So y'all are really going to Jordan's place tomorrow." Laila's shoulders rose. "Yes." Amelia's expression softened, her voice gentle. "Christmas Eve." "Christmas Eve," Laila echoed, like the words tasted strange. Mariah kicked one heel against the comforter. "Okay. That's kind of… a lot."

If I didn’t go soon, I might be tempted to see if we could sneak some morning sex in too. Downstairs our living room became a mess of torn wrapping paper, shrieks of delight, and toys as the kids enjoyed their Christmas. We’ll get it cleaned up and have everyone dressed to have Christmas dinner with Artemis and Shaw at their house. Unlike Thanksgiving, I didn’t protest when Artemis offered to make Christmas dinner at their home.

We are waiting for the right time to write about our future. I’ll probably write it with my dean, if lord disagrees I will argue! I will insist! "We are celebrating Christmas eve with Elysian, liah." 'Why discuss it over lunch date? you can just text or call to let me know.’ I could have blubber such words if not for the sake of respect. “The Christmas celebration will be held at Elysian's vacation house and you will be three days ahead of us. Your mommy will follow on Christmas Eve because there is a lot to do at the city hall. Don’t worry on the fifth day, your twin and I will follow. ”

“Merry Christmas world!” Arianna said stretching out and got out of the bed. She quickly grabbed her phone and played a Christmas song, humming to it. “Christmas is here again. This is definitely going to be the best Christmas ever.” “Quiet down with the noise.” “Why should I? I’m happy.” “Cause it’s Christmas. Merry Christmas Gavin.” “ Christmas?
