"Well, I think for now, the best thing for me is to stay here." "I'm glad to hear that, it's your home and where you belong, with your family," he says warmly, and in response, I nod, but the truth is, this is where I feel least at home. "Dessert is served!"

KILLIAN "I will be back by next tomorrow, babe." I was going back home today being Christmas Eve and return by boxing day. I always made it a point of duty to go home every Christmas period even if it was the only time I saw my folks for the year. This year was no exception. "Don't miss me too much," I quickly added.

When her life had been hanging by a thread, it was Lawrence who signed the surgery consent form. When the eighth month of Juliette's return rolled around, the Grahams and the Sherwoods gathered for a Christmas Eve dinner, but no one informed Julia about it. She'd specifically traded shifts with her colleague to spend the festive holiday with them. But in the end, her Christmas Eve dinner was a pack of frozen lasagna she'd found in the freezer.

I'm letting you return to the ocean."

Christmas arrived like a long, deep, and relieved sigh after a storm that had lasted entire years. Declan's, Evie's, and Harvey’s house was a truly grand yet welcoming refuge, situated on a vast property surrounded by wide gardens, ancient trees, and a small lake that reflected the Christmas lights like a magical mirror. Soft white lights twinkled in the garden trees, green and red garlands adorned the main door with golden bows, and the smell of fresh pine, cinnamon, nutmeg, roasted turkey, and gingerbread cookies filled every room like a warm, comforting embrace. It was the first time we were celebrating Christmas all together as a large extended family after everything we had been through

But my drive back home was magnificent as winter is fast approaching and my favorite holiday asides my birthday of course, CHRISTMAS! A big part of my Christmas tradition is to give a yearly upgrade to my Christmas playlist depending on what feels on theme for the year! I drove into our aesthetically pleasing mansion, when my face dropped. There was someone in the house Someone with a …… BIKE…… that I have seen before I walked into my house, hearing my father laugh so loud, I can't remember my father's laugh being that loud, who and what is making my father be all cheerful this evening.

They never come home? Not even for break? I wonder how mom and Curtis convinced them to come home then. I know meeting me couldn’t have been the only reason. Me: They said they wanted to meet me, but I don’t know why they are staying the whole Christmas break. Logan: Me either baby. If you get tired of them, you can come and stay with me. (winky face)
