"You really skipped me?" Kace says staring at me and I laugh at him. I nod and he crosses his arms in disappointment. All of a sudden a small smirk appears on his face. "You are so gonna regret skipping me."

"And why's that?" I say laughing. He always says things like this but doesn't do anything so I know what's going to happen. We continue playing Uno since he didn't answer my question.

"Draw 4 V!" Quinni yells. Everything gasps and laughs. Vivien places a draw 4 on top. Blake places a draw 4 on top of it and Kace looks at me intensely. I am lowkey scared for what is going to happen. "I love you but..." he places a draw 4 and I look at my hand I realize I have to pick up 16 cards. "Haha! I got you!" I laugh at him and kiss him on the cheek. "See she isn't m-" I slap him across the head and he rubs his head. "Ow! Yup, never mind." Everyone laughs.

"Ok so after me it's Adrian?" Layla asked. I nod. She goes to the microphone and starts singing "jingle bells". I am not going to lie but she is a pretty good singer.

"Jingle bells!" Vivien sings and her voice cracks. Vivien can't sing for shit. She knows that because I always tell her and she just sings to annoy me. I love her and I'm glad she loves me too.

"Whooo!" Layla yells out of breath. "Girl! How can you sing without losing you breath?" She asked panting. I laugh and shrug. I don't know because I just sing until I drop. It's what I do.

Singing is a stress relief and it's a hobby. I've always wanted to sing in front of people but I'm afraid I'll make a fool of myself. But Kace always believes in me and is there every step of the way.

"Ok your turn A." Issa says handing me the microphone. Issa is Layla's cousin and we have become very close. She is a bad bitch with a nice singing voice but with a little more vocal practice she will sing magically.

I grab the microphone and search up "All I want for Christmas" on the phone. I play the music and breathe in and out.

Play the music

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you, yeah
I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
And I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas Day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You, baby
Oh, I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
And I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do?
Baby, all I want for Christmas is you
You, baby
Oh, all the lights are shining so brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa, won't you bring me the one I really need?
Won't you please bring my baby to me?
Oh, I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just wanna see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh, I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby, all I want for Christmas... is you
You, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, baby

After the music is done I open my eyes and see everyone in shock.

"Heh," I put the microphone down. "So cookies?"

"Girl your voice is amazing!" Vivien screams.

"Oh stop it," I say walking towards the kitchen. "Has anyone seen Kace?" I turn around and see everyone point at Kace who is sleeping. "How long?"

"After Uno." They all says with their arms crossed. I laugh and signal them to come to the kitchen.

"So Adrian," Issa says eating the cookie. I look at her as I eat mine. "How long have you guys been together?"

"Well 3 years together and 7 months married." I say blushing. "He is amazing and he is the best husband and thing that has happened to me after something bad." I wash my hands and see that Issa is looking at me confused.

"What happened?" She says drinking water.

"Well it something I don't wanna talk about," I say rubbing my belly.

"Well, you and Kace are really cute." She says smiling. "You guys are perfect for each other." She walks out of the kitchen sassy.
