The next day, it was the day of the Christmas party. Lilian finished knitting Christmas sweaters for everyone. she gave a green sweater to Benjamin, a purple sweater to Chloe, a light red one to Ceen, a red one to Akuma, and a white one to David. "Lilian, this is better than I imagined." Chloe said. Benjamin blinked twice and was somewhat surprised. "Lilian, how did you know green was my favorite color?" he asked. Lilian shrugged as if she didn't know and that it was coincidental. "We all have our secrets and mine aren't any different," she replied.


The party began at 5 PM and everyone was having the time of their lives. Especially Chloe. She drank a lot of punch that she got herself in something Autumnrose's people called a "Punch Rush" where when someone drinks a lot of punch, they'd get something similar to a sugar rush but with punch. Benjamin and Lilian were standing next to each other. "Oooh guess who's under the mistletoe!" Ceen teased. Lilian and Benjamin blinked twice. "Who?" they both asked, completely oblivious of who were under the mistletoe. Ceen took out her phone while David pointed above them. Lilian blushed a bright tomato red while she noticed the mistletoe. Ceen opened the camera app and started recording. "C'mon you two, kiss each other already!" David laughed. Lilian turned even t'brighter than a tomato now. She felt herself heat up a 100 degree temperature. "Just do it already so they'll shut up," Benjamin tapped his foot. Lilian's heart raced but she knew she had to. She lightly kissed Benjamin on the cheek and walked off into the kitchen with a 100 percent blush.

Ceen snickered. "Did ya get it on video?" David asked Ceen. She nodded. Chloe went into the kitchen with Ceen to check on Lilian. Lilian's face was stuffed with food that all they could hear was muffling and feel food spit on their faces. Ceen kept a sinister smirk on her face. Lilian managed to gulp her food down and able to speak normally. "Cinnamom is intrigued. Cinnamom wants to know why Ceen has a sinister smirk." she spoke in third person using her nickname she uses. Chloe's eyes widened with realization and she began laughing.
Meanwhile with Benjamin and David, they were having a small talk. "How'd ya feel about that kiss, Ben?" David asked as he drank his Inca Kola. Benjamin scoffed and didn't reply. He drank his coca cola and walked off into a more private room, aka the bathroom. David blinked twice then shrugged. "He will come around." he thought.

After a couple of hours, Ceen decided to watch the video of where Benjamin and Lilian had their moment. She set the media volume to silent so Lilian nor Benjamin would hear it. Chloe was watching it with her and immediately stopped when Lilian came by. "What are you watching?" she asked as she drank some punch. "Nothing important." Chloe replied, drinking from a beer bottle. "HOW OLD ARE YOU?! 26 OH WAIT, NO YOU'RE 12 WHY THE HELL ARE YOU DRINKING A BEER?!" Lilian asked. "It's juice, not beer." Chloe said. Lilian sighed in relief. "Hey so how'd you like it?" Ceen smirked. "Like what?" Lilian asked, completely oblivious of what she was talking about. "The kiss," Chloe added, smirking. Lilian blushed. "SHUT UP!" she yelled. "Benjamin and Lilian sittin' in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Chloe and Ceen taunted. Lilian became aggravated as she lifted punch with her hydrokinesis and it landed on Chloe. Chloe's eyebrow twitched. Lilian gasped and grabbed Akuma's arm and left the party. "C'mon, Akuma!" she forcefully dragged him out of the party and into the city. 

In the city, Lilian and Akuma were going towards a hamburger shop even though it was closed for the day. "There's pizza at the party! Why did I-" Lilian paused him. "I'll get you a hamburger!" she said. Akuma blinked twice and sighed. "Fine," he replied. They both then hid behind a wall when they heard a man's scream. 

Lilian gasped and they hid farther behind the wall. "Sorry, sir! Merry Christmas!" shouted a familiar voice that sounded louder and louder as it came closer. "Oh god it's Chloe!" Lilian thought. Chloe looked around on top of a roof and noticed two figures were sneaking off. "Hey!" she shouted at them as she jumped off and ran towards the two figures. Lilian gasped. She tried running off with Akuma but it was a dead end. Chloe was right in their presence. "Well well well, look who I found here." she walked closer to them. "I-I'M SORRY CHLOE! GO AHEAD AND KILL ME IF YOU HAVE TO!" Lilian cried. Akuma sat there in silence, blinking twice. "What? On Christmas? What kind of monster would I be if I did that on Christmas!?" Chloe asked. Lilian looked at her with total confusion. "Wait, so you're not going to kill me? Even though poured punch all over you?!" Lilian clarified. Chloe shook her head. "Let's just go back to the party." she said. "Nah, I'll just stay here and be back at the dorms in 30 minutes." Lilian said. Chloe shrugged and left off back at the party. 

After the party, Lilian came back and everything was back to normal.....or was it?
