I pack my things and my family pick me up.

I sit in the car looking out into the distance. I feel so cruel... It was like I was rejecting Jackson.

"Elsa... You're not spending a romantic Christmas with Jackson?" Anna asks and tilts her head.

"No. I always have to spend Christmas with my family." I tell her.

"You know when you grow up you're not always going to spend Christmas with your family." She says.

Jackson comes to mind. It's his first Christmas without a full family. It is a good idea leaving him with James.

"You should need to consider it. You've got till tomorrow." She says.

"I'm not changing my mind." I say and cross my arms.

We arrive back at Marvel and I unpack my things in my room. My mother joins me.

"Yes? Is there something you want?" I ask while occupied.

Mom leans onto the wall, "Your father is back at Christmas. We are all going on a ski trip for Christmas." She says.

"What?!" I exclaim.

"Your father thought it was a good idea. Even though we are running low on money. This is a Christmas present for you and Anna." She explains.

"I just unpacked!" I groan.

"Bring your valuables with you." Mother adds.

"Huh? Why?" I ask.

"Your father's idea." She says.

Okay now I'll have to pack up again. You could've told me earlier geez.

"Elsa..." Mother says with a soft voice,"You don't have to come with us. You can go to your boyfriend."

"You wouldn't allow that." I say chucking my things back into my suitcase.

"Heard the stuff he's been through from Anna. He would need you." Mother says and stares off into the distance.

"He doesn't need me. He's fine on his own." I tell her firmly.

"Being in a relationship means you both have to rely on each other." She tells me.

"I already settled on my choice! I spending it with you! I never see my father and he wants to treat us to a trip, I can't miss that." I say.

Mother nods her head and leaves.

Jackson Overland

"LAST CHRISTMAS I GAVE YOU MY HEART, BUT THE VERY NEXT DAY YOU GAVE IT AWAY... "

This is what I have to tolerate... James singing Christmas songs and carols all night and day.

"Heyy brooo! What's my gift?! Is it big?!" James nags me.

"I wish it was a zip for your mouth." I mutter.

"Don't be so cold. Is it because Elsa rejected your offer?" James asks tilting his head.

"Are you serious?! You were the one telling me to invite her to my Christmas." I say angrily and tighten my fist, "You should get a girlfriend and spend Christmas with her."

"No I'm good. Seeing your relationship it's put me off having one myself." James says.

"What's that suppose to mean?!"

"Looking up girls skirts is enough to satisfy me." He says and giggles like an idiot.

"... Why do they call me the perv?" I facepalm myself.

"Your the older one. You lead by example." He says, "I think you should text Elsa."

"I was going to anyway!" I exclaim.

James leaves to go to his bedroom.

... this text deserves a lot of thought...

Elsa Arendelle

Christmas Eve. Christmas!

I check my phone and I have a text from Jackson.

Hey Elsa :P It's probably Christmas right now when you are reading this. I have a gift for you but it will have to wait till I see you again. I wish you were here with me that would have been the best gift but it doesn't matter because your my girlfriend and that's enough for me. Thank you for existing. Thank you for your existance.
I know it's cowardly to say this in a text. But it's embarrassing on the phone. Sorry.
Merry Christmas Elsa.

I cover my mouth. I wasn't prepared.
Damn you Jackson! You are cruel! Just when I was about to leave!

I rush downstairs.
"I'm sorry! I'm going to Jackson." I abruptly tell them, "I am sorry I have to!"

They both look suprised.

"I knew you would surrender." Anna says.

"Go ahead. Take your stuff and go." My mother says.

I grab my suitcase and take a bus back to Jackson...
