Ariana

Christmas Eve

"CHRISTMAS IS TOMORROW!" I yelled, running out of my room.

The smell of pancakes filled the house and I was running around excitedly like a little kid that's hyper from sugar.

"CHRISTMAS IS TOMORROW!" I continued yelling.

"Calm down babe." Justin said as he hugged me from behind to stop me from running some more.

"I can't because CHRISTMAS IS TOMORROW!" I exclaimed.

"We know, we know." Justin replied.

We both headed downstairs where the others were.

"So, Ariana and Justin, while you guys were upstairs, we were thinking of planning a Christmas party here tomorrow." My mother said.

"That's a great idea!" I said, with a mouth full of pancakes.

"Who should we send out invitations to?"

"Sascha, Lexi, Chaz, Taylor, Kylie, Kendall, Demi, Gigi, Miley, Ricky, Alfredo, Jones, Niall, Harry, Liam, Zayn, Louis, Madison, Nicki, Zendaya, Cara, Liz, Victoria, Matt, Avan, Daniella, Leon, Glozell, Colleen, Emma, Iggy-" I replied.

"Oh and then maybe we can invite-"

"Okay Ariana I think that's enough for now. We'll do these people first and then more." My mother said.

"Okay fine. Me and Justin are gonna go Christmas shopping later." I blurted out.

"Is it too late to go shopping though?" Justin asked.

"Nope!" I say with a big smile.

I finished the rest of my pancakes and chugged my orange juice and hurried to my room. It was 9:00 AM, which was the perfect time to go shopping. I changed into a black shirt, a matching checkered skirt, a wool sweater, and some furry boots. I didn't bother to do my hair so I just left it down. I put on some eyeliner and grabbed my purse and phone. I went back downstairs to wait for Justin.

"Who else should we invite?" My mother asked.

"Camila Cabello, Ally Brooke, Dinah Jane, Lauren Jauregui, Normani Kordei, Pia Mia, Chantel Gonsalves, Keke Palmer, Ryanna Alvarez, Nick Jonas, Todrick Hall, Tori Kelly, Jhene Aiko, Abel, Bruno Mars, Alli Simpson, Lorde, Doug Middlebrook, and Victoria Monet." I blurted out, surprising everyone. 

"All right, all right Ariana. We'll get more later. Now, I think it's time for you and Justin to go shopping to calm you down." My mother said, motioning Justin.

Justin followed and went upstairs to his guest room. He came back down wearing some jeans, a red and black flannel, matching red shoes, and his RayBans. He also grabbed his car keys. We said bye to everyone and headed to his car.

I was super excited to go shopping, especially since there's gonna be a lot of people. I thought of certain gifts for certain people and took notes in my phone. Just as I finished taking notes, we arrived at the mall. Justin put on his RayBans and followed me inside. 

"Hey, I'll go buy some gifts myself so let's meet up at the food court at 1." Justin said.

"Sure!" I exclaimed. 

He headed into a different direction as I headed into Forever 21. (A/N: this is my fave store :3)

I walked all around the store as I browsed all the clothes they had. 

I got a floral print mini dress for Camila, an abstract geo-print skater dress for Lexi, a high-slit Maxi dress for Sascha, a reverse web weave crop top and a beige pencil skirt for Kylie, a plunging V mini dress for Kendall, a sheer mesh top with a white pencil skirt for Liz, an embroidered peasant dress for Victoria, a cutout-back Bodycon dress for Zendaya, a wilde heart tile print romper for Cara, a mock neck shift dress for Lauren, and a Peter Pan striped dress for Demi. 

I picked all the right sizes and went to buy them all. I got in line and got greeted by a couple of fans. 

I paid for all the clothes and headed to another store. I already got 13 clothes for these people. Now, I just need the rest. I headed into Coach for Men and saw what they had. 

I got a tan leather metropolitan courier for Avan, two pairs of Aviator sunglasses for Matt, a stainless steel sullivan sport watch for Leon, a black smooth leather belt for Chaz, a cashmere bicolor scarf for Ricky, and a blended stripe scarf for Alfredo. 

I got in line and paid for all these gifts. I grabbed the bags and went to Chanel. 

I got a pink flap bag for Emma,  a minaudiere with flowers for Taylor, a white and pink handbag for Nicki, a black leather handbag for Iggy, a flap bag with brown fur for Madison, a velvet handbag for Daniella, and a clutch bag for Victoria Monet. 

I gathered all of the gifts and paid for them.

(A/N: I got tired of typing this so I just shortened it LOLOLOLOL.)

I eventually went to other stores and bought more gifts. It was already 1 and I was completely done shopping. I got gifts for the rest of the others, Nonna, Frankie, Mother, and Justin.

I headed to the food court, carrying at least 20 bags. Justin saw me and he was completely surprised. He was carrying 7 bags, while I had both armfuls. 

"W-woah, I didn't expect you to buy THAT much gifts." He said, still surprised.

"Hey, what can I say?" I smiled. "I am the master of shopping." 

"Want me to buy some food?" He asked, helping me with my bags.

"Sure. I just want some McDonald's." I replied. 

He put down my bags and went in line. Five minutes later, he came back with our food.

"I sure am tired." I said, eating my salad. 

"I can tell." He said, drinking his soda.

We both finished our food, laughing and talking about stuff. Justin helped me carry my bags again as we walked back to the car. 

We arrived back home. As we were carrying our bags into the house, everyone was busy decorating. 

"Hey Ariana and Justin! Wow, that's a lot of gifts!" Brian said.

"Most of them are Ari's,"Justin said as I smiled. 

"Ari! Justin! Put your bags down at your rooms and help us decorate! The more, the better!" My mother said.

We hurried upstairs, dropped off our bags, and went back to decorate. 

I hung the Christmas ornaments on our cute, chubby tree, Justin hung Christmas lights all over the house, and the others were either cleaning, decorating, or cooking.

By the time we were finished decorating and preparing, it was already around 7 PM. We all went into the kitchen to eat dinner.

My mother made some pasta, which my grandfather used to make. I really liked this pasta.

"All right, so who else to invite?" Mother asked.

The others suggested more people when someone rang the doorbell.

I got up to get it and when I opened it, it was such a surprise.

"Nonna! I missed you so much!" I exclaimed.

My nonna flew to L.A. from Florida, along with the rest of my dogs, Coco, Ophelia, Strauss, and Fawkes. Toulouse greeted them and they all started playing with each other.

"Ariana, you look beautiful as always." Nonna said as I smiled.

Nonna and I walked into the kitchen as she was greeted by everyone.

Nonna was catching up with the others as Justin and I went to the living room to watch some TV while we eat.

There was nothing good on so we decided to watch Netflix. (A/N: yes, they were basically Netflix and chilling lmao.)

I put on Orange is the New Black and glued my eyes to the TV.

I was so focused on the TV that I didn't hear anything that anyone said. Until Justin paused OITNB.

"What happened?" I asked.

"You're so focused on OITNB." Justin replied, grabbing my finished plate.

"Well, it's my favorite show." I said, unpausing the TV.

Nonna and the others were still talking by the time we finished at least 5 episodes. It was already past 9 and I was tired.

I said goodnight to everyone and headed upstairs with Justin.

He gave me a kiss on my forehead and went to his guest room. I walked to my room and went to sleep in 1 minute.

Tomorrow was Christmas. And it's gonna be great.

Christmas Morning: 6 AM

I woke up at 6 AM, with a huge smile on my face.

I brushed my hair, put on my fluffy slippers and rushed to Justin's room.

I opened his door and ran to his side. He was gently snoring, which made him adorable.

"JUSTIN! IT'S CHRISTMAS!" I yelled.

He quickly sat up, startled.

"Huh? What happened?" He asked, sleepily.

"IT'S CHRISTMAS SLEEPYHEAD!" I exclaimed.

He nodded and was about to fall back asleep.

I pulled him out of bed and now he was on the floor.

"Ouch. Okay okay, I'm awake now!" Justin said, getting up from the floor.

I ran to my room, getting Justin's present.

I grabbed the red and black neatly wrapped present with a cute little bow on top that was labeled Justin.

I went back to his room and gave him his present.

"Open it!" I exclaimed, smiling.

He tore it up and opened the box. He was looking at it as his eyes widened in awe.

"A NEW XBOX 360?!" He exclaimed.

"Yeah! Remember when you broke your XBOX by accident because you got angry when you lost that game? I got you another one since you couldn't replace it!" I replied.

He hugged me super tight that I couldn't breathe. He eventually let go and gave me a kiss.

Justin went downstairs as I went to get the other presents.

I hurried downstairs, greeted by the smell of bacon and eggs.

I gave everyone their present one by one.

"Merry Christmas everyone!" I blurted out.

They all opened their gifts and looked at them in awe. They all came in for a hug and thanked me.

I sat down and savored my food. The crispiness and crunchyness of the bacon and the smooth texture of the egg.

Justin and I did our usually thing. We went to the living room while the others were talking about things like their presents and Justin and me.

I put on OITNB and glued my eyes to the TV.

I can tell Justin was bored out of his mind since he went on his phone.

Justin grabbed my plate as soon as I finished and went into the kitchen.

There was some "stuff" happening in the episode I watching and Justin looked at me weirdly because I watch this kind of stuff.

I finished 3 episodes and decided to do something else.

"Ariana, tonight's party doesn't start until 7 so go have some fun." Mother said.

Justin and I decided to stay home since it was pretty cold outside.

"I'm going to continue watching OITNB!" I told Justin.

Justin groaned. "You always watch this show."

"Fine. I guess I need a break." I sighed.
"Hey, wanna go do some freestyling?" Justin asked.

I knew exactly what he was saying.

I nodded and we both headed to my studio.

He played around with the keys, making some funky sounds.

"So, I wrote some new songs for winter. Wanna listen?"

"Sure. I haven't heard you sing in a while."

I put in the audio to my first song, which was Winter Things. (A/N: one of my fave songs from Christmas & Chill.)

It ain't even cold outside 

Not where I'm from 

Feeling like it's mid July

Under the sun 

My jacket don't get no love

No hats and no gloves 

Not even a chance of rain 

But my baby's in town and

We're gonna do some winter things 

Heyooo

I wanna pretend we're at the North Pole

Turning the heat into an ice cold holiday 

Made just for me and my baby 

My baby's in town and we're gonna do some winter things. 

I continued singing my heart. The next thing you know, I attracted everyone from the kitchen into the studio. They were waving their arms along with the song and cheering me on.

When I finished singing, I got a round of applause.

"That was great Ariana." Joan said.

"Thanks Mother." I replied. "I wrote this when I was on my way to LA."

"That was awesome Ariana!" Nonna exclaimed. "You're still my awesome little singer."

"Thank you Nonna." I smiled.

"Justin? What do you think?" 

"It was awesome! It's such a great song!" 

He gave me a little kiss on the cheek. Everyone awed. 

"Oh Ariana, can you and Justin go buy some party favors?" Joan said.

"Sure. But aren't stores closed today?" Justin asked.

"Walgreens is still open." Frankie blurted out of nowhere. 

I didn't bother to change so I just stayed in my pink onesie and boots and waited for Justin. He just put on a random pair of black jeans and his shoes and went outside.

Tonight is gonna be awesome. I thought to myself.

6:45 PM: The Christmas Party

I sat in front of my vanity, doing my makeup. My hair was down and curly. I wore a red crop top with a matching pencil skirt. I applied my blush, lipstick, eye shadow, and liquid eyeliner.

I put on my red heels and sprayed my perfume. I grabbed all the presents I got and headed downstairs. 

Mother, Nonna, and Frankie were in the kitchen preparing food while the others were still decorating. I put all the presents under the tree and helped the others set up. We hired a DJ to help with the music, we hired caterers to help with the food, and bodyguards so nobody tries stealing, breaking in, or getting into the party. We gave the bodyguards the list of people invited. 

Justin was still getting ready. Boys, am I right? (A/N: lmao.)

We set up the living room so it was a dance floor. We also set up party lights and a disco ball.

Eventually, it was 7, which was the time of the party.

Everyone hurried to get ready and I told them to take their time and that I'll get everyone.

Ding Dong 

Ding Dong 

Ding Dong 

The bodyguards came and did their job.

"Names?" One of them asked.

"Kylie and Kendall Jenner." Kylie said.

The other bodyguard nodded and let both of them in.

"Ariana! Thanks for inviting us!" Kendall said.

They both looked nice. Kylie wore a white jumpsuit with red pumps and Kendall wore a red maxi dress. 

"No problem!" I replied.

I saw that they both brought gifts so I motioned them to put them under our tree.

More and more people came.

"Names?" 

"Taylor Swift, Demi Lovato, and Miley Cyrus." 

"Ariana! Nice to see you again!" Miley exclaimed.

She was wearing a white dress that had glitter all over it with her back showing. Taylor was wearing a short red dress with white stripes on it. Demi was wearing a white crop top and a matching skirt with a black design. 

I gave them all a hug and went to mingle with Kylie and Kendall. Everyone came down and got greeted by the others.

Justin was taking a while so I excused myself and went upstairs to check on him.

"Justin?" I said, opening his door.

Justin was sitting on the floor, playing Mortal Combat on his new XBOX. I tried my best not to laugh but bursted out laughing. 

"Ah! Ariana! What are you doing here?" He asked surprised.

"Checking up on you. The party started. Go get ready!" I replied.

He paused his game, grabbed his clothes, and went to the bathroom. I decided to wait for him so I started playing. He was playing Halo, which I bought along with the XBOX.

I started shooting random people and I didn't bother to know who was on my team. Shooting random people is so much fun! 

I eventually got 100 kills. 

"Nice shot." Justin said as I shot someone in the head.

He wore a black t-shirt with matching jeans and a red flannel.

We both headed downstairs and the entire living room was full of our guests.

"Welcome to our Christmas party!" I yelled from the stairs. "Thank you all so much for coming to celebrate with us!"

Everyone cheered.

"First, we're going to pray and then dig in. You can eat as much as you want! Then, we're going to dance for a bit. Lastly, we're going to give out our presents. After that, be our guest and do whatever!"

We all headed into the kitchen and prayed.

After we prayed, everyone got plates and walked all around the kitchen, getting food from here to there.

We had all sorts of food like: pasta, salad, barbecue, egg rolls, chicken, lobster, crab, ham, spaghetti, etc.

As soon as most of us finished, the DJ started playing music and turned on the party lights. We danced and danced and danced. I watched as Justin started breakdancing and I cheered him on. There was also a dance battle and a conga line. 

After having fun dancing, it was already 9:15, which was time for presents. 

Everyone stopped and gathered around the tree.

"We will do our presents first and then whoever brought presents can do theirs." I explained.

My first present was for Alexia. I gave it to her and watched as she opened it, revealing the dress I bought her. She thanked me and I carried on. 

After I gave every single person their present, Kylie and Kendall gave their presents out. Next was Liz. Then, it was Taylor and so on.

Everyone gathered some leftovers and thanked me for inviting them. Then they all left, saying goodbye to us.

It was already around midnight and I was tired.

"Ariana, we will clean up here." Scot said.

"No, it's okay. I got it." I replied, smiling.

"Oh okay then, goodnight Ari and merry Christmas. Thanks for my gift." 

"Goodnight babe." Justin said. "See you tomorrow." 

"Goodnight." I gave him a kiss.

Everyone went upstairs to their room and I stayed back to clean up.

As I was cleaning up, I noticed that there was still one present that was unopened.

To: Ariana

From: Jai

I didn't expect him to bring me a gift but I opened it anyways. There was a note inside.

Dear Ariana, 

Merry Christmas. I know you didn't invite me to your party and that's okay. I deserve it. I gave this to the bodyguard to give to you, so don't think I broke in. I just wanted you to know that I'm happy for you and Justin and I wouldn't try to change that. (A/N: *whispers* liar.) So, I got both of you guys these gifts. I hope you like them. So, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

- Jai

Inside the box was two necklaces. They both had J&A on them. I was guessing that it meant Justin and Ariana. I smiled since I liked his gift.

I cleaned up the rest and headed upstairs. I placed the necklaces on my vanity and changed into my pajamas. I took off my makeup and laid on my bed.

"Today was the best Christmas ever." I said to myself.

I then went to sleep.

-
