REAL LIFE

"Oh my god they're here!" Hannalynn announced in excitement as she leapt off the couch in Jack's basement and ran up the stairs. She swung open the front door and screamed in unison along with Cenzie, Hunter, and Cate. They threw their arms around each other and hugged before running down into Jack's basement.

"Hey!" Finn, Jack, Malcolm, and Ayla exclaimed as they hugged each one of them.

"HI WIFEY!" Malcolm said as he gave Cenzie a kiss.

"HI HUBBY! I MISSED YOU!" She kissed him back with a smile. "Excited to spend the next two weeks of winter break with me?"

"You bet," Malcolm grinned.

"Okay, Menzie will forever be my favorite ship," Hannalynn said with a laugh as Finn put an arm around her. "Hayla and Jate are tied as a very close second, since they're the newest couples in town."

Hunter smiled almost shyly as Ayla wrapped her arms around her. "So glad we worked things out, right Hunt?"

"I got very lucky to be with you," Hunter grinned as Ayla laid her head on her shoulder.

"So, when did Jate become a thing?" Cenzie asked as they all sat down on the couches. "Last I chatted with Cate, which was literally two nights ago, Jate was not yet official."

"Well, we wanted to wait until we saw each other in person, but I guess we got too excited," Cate said with a giggle as Jack laced his fingers with hers.

"This is the perfect way to spend the holiday break; with the people I love," Hannalynn smiled. "I'm so glad we're all here together."

"Aw, Hanna Banana!" Hunter stood up and gave her a hug, and soon enough, all eight teens were in a group hug. As they pulled away, Cenzie's eyes widened and a sly smile was plastered on her face.

"Uh oh, I know that look," Malcolm said wearily as he stepped back. "She's planning something."

"Hunter, stand here," Cenzie grabbed Hunter by the shoulders and dragged her to one spot in the room. "Ayla, stand next to her."

Ayla did as she was told, and once the two stood there, Cenzie eyed up at the ceiling. They looked up and noticed Cenzie had placed them right under the mistletoe.

"Typical Cenzie," Hannalynn laughed once she noticed.

"Now kiss, you cuties!" Cenzie exclaimed as she pointed at the mistletoe. Hunter and Ayla giggled before Ayla cupped Hunter's chin and pulled her in for their very first kiss.

"Aw! I love them!" Cate gushed as she hugged Jack. "And I totally agree with Hanna; this is the best way to spend our holiday."

The teens sat back down and hung out for a few hours playing games and watching movies and just spending time together.

"Hey, Han? You awake?" Finn whispered softly as he brushed strands of hair out of Hannalynn's face later that night. She opened her eyes and nodded as she smiled up at him from laying across his lap.

"Yeah, what's up?" She replied.

Finn pulled out a small box from his hoodie pocket and handed it to her. "I know it's technically tomorrow, but it's Christmas Eve today, so here you go."

Hannalynn sat up and opened the small black square box. Inside was a silver charm bracelet with five charms; an F, H, guitar, piano, and a heart.

"There's still room if you want to add more charms to it, I just put a few small things that had some meaning behind them," Finn smiled. "Merry Christmas, Han. I love you."

Hannalynn pulled him in for an embrace before kissing his lips. "Merry Christmas, Finn. Thank you so much, this is so beautiful. I love you too. Thank you for everything."

Finn smiled at her and placed the bracelet around her wrist. He kissed her cheek and wrapped his arms around her as she laid against his chest, and she drifted off to sleep with a smile on her face.

thank you to all of you for joining me on this fun journey of writing this story. i've loved bringing these characters to life and writing a couple of them into my stories that aren't even mine, such as cenzie, hunter, and cate. thank you sunnie and nat for helping me bring these characters into my little world, i love you both :') -KiNDREDSPiRiTS- h0neycake
