It's Christmas.

Yup in a blink of an eye.

Damien has been nervous all day for us to exchange gifts. Luckily he came over in the morning after my mom left to give Xavier's dad his gift. I was trying to stuff as much wrapping paper as possible into a trash bag when he walked in.

"Wow your mom went all out." He chuckled from across the room. I let out a laugh as well and nodded my head.

"Well Merry Christmas to you too." I couldn't help but smirk but I continued talking.

"My mom got you two gifts and she opened the one you got her and screamed." I mumbled getting him to laugh. My mother loved his gift more then she loved mine. oh yeah, he got her more movies for them to watch and a candle.

It was like being a kid in a candy store for her.

I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around my waist, making me smile and lean back into his chest. I dropped the bag and turned my attention to the handsome man behind me. "You have to open your gift first." I giggled, giving him a innocent peck on the lips before untangling myself from him and grabbing his gift.

Damien had found his spot on the couch and I placed his gift in front of him. A small smile fell onto his lips as he unwrapped it.

"Thea you didn't have too." He gasped, making me clap my hands in excitement as I sat beside the Christmas tree.

"Well your mom said you leather jacket got ruined and I just thought you wanted another one." I smiled watching his face light up. He was so cute, his crooked canines were still perfect on him and the way he stared at that jacket made me feel great.

"Thank you." He smiled getting up to give me a kiss before placing a box in my hand. Damien sat back in the couch as I slowly unwrapped the gift. I opened the lid and a note fell out, stopping me in my tracks. I picked it up, setting the box down for a moment to read it.

My Little Flower,

You threw this at me the day I made a deal with Kyla and I'm sorry about that. I haven't drank since the hospital and even when I didn't know you I felt the need to not let you down. I know I already had when you looked sad every time you saw me...

I love you and I'm sorry it took so long for me to remember that. Everything only got better when you were around and I couldn't look at you after I started to remember what I did to you. I was disgusted with myself. I didn't know what I was more afraid of, seeing you again or never seeing you again.

I woke up one night drench in sweat and the first person I wanted to see was you. That was the day I came over way to early and laid down with you. You didn't look upset though, you looked happy and every since then I wanted to see you happy. I realized I couldn't leave you alone because you were a part of me I didn't want to let go. I love you little flower and I won't let you down.

I felt tears falling down my cheeks but I didn't care, my eyes slowly went to the box and I saw the necklace. It was silver with a dainty little flower on it with a stem and leaves. I grabbed the necklace in one hand and slowly walked over to Damien who stared at me intently.

I sat on his lap and help the necklace to him so he could put it on. Once he leaned on me to clip the necklace I hugged him as tightly as possible, getting him to chuckle slightly. He clipped the necklace together before hugging me back making me smile.

"I love you Damien." I mumbled from his shoulder. I then proceeded to kiss every inch of his face. This was a gift I would never regret because I mean, you can't regret a face like his.

"I love you little flower." He murmured making me almost melt. I kissed his lips gently before I herd a small yelp from the hallway making me pull back to look at Ashley, Alex and Xavier.

"I knew it!" Ashley screamed making me blush a bright red and hide my face in his chest. Everyone ran over to hug Damien and I stayed beside him the entire time. I don't think he minded it because he kept a arm around me the entire time.

"Oh and Thea your stuck with me forever." Xavier called making me give him a raised eyebrow.

"Your mom is suppose to tell you when she gets here but still act surprised because she's engaged." My mouth slightly drop but a laughed erupted through Damien and he shook his head.

"Damien it's not funny." I whined, my eyes going back to Xavier who was seductively wiggling his eyebrows toward me. "I'm gonna have to live with that thing." I whined getting Damien to cup my chin and place a kiss on my lips.

"Ew." Alex coughed making everyone laugh for a moment.

This was how my life was suppose to be. I wasn't suppose to be the girl that was shoved into lockers everyday. I wasn't suppose to be quiet and look only an inch in front of me everyday.

I was suppose to be happy and have friends. I was suppose to find a family again. I got to find the love of my life and my best friends. I was suppose to find myself.

I was suppose to be here, alive.
