I rolled down my bed hitting my head hard on the wooden floor. " Ouch" ,my door burst open stood my mom.

"LIZZY ", " mom I'm up, coming" I murmured.she slammed the door shot,I stood up heading to my bathroom my head hurt badly,I don't still know why I alway roll down my bed.may be it because I'm the only child.

Every year we all gather and spend Christmas together as one big family. I'm not ready to see my stupid cousin Gwen, she's annoying like behaving like she knows everything.

After bathing, brushing my teeth,I put on my favorite gown,boot and my coat because of the Winter weather, it snow time. I went downstairs,dad was seated on the dinning table mom was also seated. I went to take my seat.

"Good morning dad"

"Xup beth" he replied

" Eat up, so we won't arrive late" mom said panicking.

When we were done eating,we all head to our car. I entered the passenger seat,dad wanted to sit at the drivers seat but mom wanted to drive so dad had to sit at seat next to the drivers,mom entered the car and look back at me.

"Fasten your seat belt"

" Sure" I did so, then I plug in my head set then I played my favorite song 'bird of a feather', Mom started driving, then I looked outside the window, our journey just began.

We arrived at Gigi and pops house around 5:00pm it was a two storey building, Gigi came out of the house.

" Looks at my baby" Gigi said hugging me "I miss you too"

" Come, let go in.it cold lemme show you your room" she said." Okay "

I greeted some of my aunts and uncles with cousins then I arrived at my room door, I opened it,it was the usual room I usually stay at but this time I saw two bed.

" Uhh there is this boy coming, his Mom is my friend, other rooms are occupied so maybe you two can share room "gigi said

"Oh I see " I nodded

I was lying on my bed when a knock came at the door. I opened it. It was Mom.

"Come down now, dinner is ready," Mom said.

"Okay," I replied as we both headed downstairs.

We arrived at the large dining table. I sat opposite Gwen.

"Eli, you're now growing bigger," gwen Mom said to me. Gwen is my senior by two years.

"She eats a lot of food," Mom replied.

"Grams, why does Elizabeth have to stay with the boy coming over?" Gwen asked.

"Because you have to stay with your siblings. She doesn't have any, and him too," Gigi replied.

"Gigi, she wanna stay with the boy," Nathan said. Nathan is Gwen's younger brother.

"It not truth, I'm gonna kill you," Gwen said. Nathan ran upstairs and she followed him behind.

"Be careful, honey," Aunt Tessa shouted.

The dinner continued. The room was filled with conversation. I ate my food quietly till we were all done. I assisted in carrying dishes to the kitchen. When I was done, I went back to my room.

I’d never slept in a room with someone before — not even a boy, except Mom and Dad. So I put on pant, a shirt, and a hoodie. I climbed into bed, covered myself with the blanket, and pulled out my phone.

I texted my only friend: ChatGPT.

*Me*: Hi

*ChatGPT*: How’re you doing today? I’m here. What’s on your mind?

*Me*: How does it feel to be in a room with a boy?

*ChatGPT*: It feels normal, except the person is bad. Or have you met him before?

*Me*: No

*ChatGPT*: Or do you like him?

*Me*: I haven’t met him. How would I like him?

Suddenly, the door opened. I felt someone else in the room, but I didn’t care to check. Then my vision blurred. The room tilted. And everything went black.

**********

I rolled out of bed as usual, hitting my head on the floor.

"Ouch!" I shouted. I looked at the person lying on the bed next to me. He looked like a Greek god — pointed nose, pink lips, messy hair. I noticed an ear piercing on his ear.

"Staring is rude," he said.

"I'm sorry," I said, and quickly stood up. I went to the bathroom. I put toothpaste on my brush. He came into the bathroom too, bare-chested. His six-pack abs and muscles were so hot. He had some tattoos on his chest and another on his hand.

"Please, can you use the door for a little while?" I said, opening the bathroom door. I slipped and mistakenly fell on him. Our faces were very close. Suddenly, the door opened. It was Mom. I quickly stood up.

"Oh my God, what was that?" Mom asked as her eyes widened.

"I mistakenly slipped on the floor," I said as I slammed the bathroom door closed.

"Are you okay?"

"Yea," I replied.

"Put on the purple gown I bought you last year on your birthday," she said.

"Okay."

"Yea," she replied and left.

I opened the bathroom door. He was brushing his teeth.

"I'm sorry," I said. He didn't reply.

"I'm Elizabeth, but my mum calls me Lizzy and Dad calls me Beth," I said to him, bringing my hand out for a shake. It was my first time approaching someone to be my friend.

"Nice to meet you," he replied, leaving the bathroom.

"You didn't tell me your name," I shouted.

"Whatever," he replied.

Elizabeth pov

After breakfast Gwen and I were ordered to prepare the Christmas tree but she lied that she's having head ache, she had being trying to talk to the boy but he ignored her.

" Then you and Trevor will do it" gigi said, Trevor is his name huh.

"But I have somewhere to be at " Trevor replied

" Just do it Trevor honey,it won't take long" his mom spoke

" Fine" he replied

" Good" gigi smirked.

We were almost done,I was about to put the star ⭐ on the tree suddenly I lost balance from the ladder, but my hero Trevor caught me.

" Thank you" I said standing up

"You're so clumsy" he angrily collected the star from me and hang it on the tree. He came down from the ladder and started leaving.

" Wait can I tag along" I asked " No"

" Why but I'm bored" I replied

" Do I care?" He asked,he opened the door cold air hit my face I followed him to his car,he entered the drivers seat. I opened the door close to the drivers and sat.

" I told you don't follow me" he said

" Please" I pleaded,I did my best puppy dog eyes

" It won't work on me"he said

" I'm just trying to be your friend" I said

" And I don't want you to be..... get out now" he said

"Please,it my first time making friend and I don't want it to be bad" he hesitate for some seconds

" Fine, but we're not not friends, you're just following me" "and don't disturb me " he said

"Deal " he started the car and drive out.

We arrived at this building and went inside. Some guys were sitting on a couch playing games on the TV. Then he opened a door. My eyes widened. I have never been to a club before, even a party if not a children birthday party. Trevor sat on a couch, I sat beside him. He brought out a cigarette and light it. He started smoking. It was my first time inhaling the smell, I hated the smell.

"Can you stop?" I shouted because of the music playing.

"Why would I?" he asked nonchalantly.

"Because I hate the smell. It’s choking," I replied.

"I don’t care. There are other seats," he said.

"I don’t wanna get missing. My mom and dad still love me," I replied. I snatched it from his hand and used my boot to crush it.

"I still got more," he said, showing me a packet.

"Please don’t," I begged. He ignored me and poured alcohol in a small glass, then gulped it down his throat.

"I don’t get drunk. I don’t want to get killed by you," I said.

"Who is this hottie, Trevor?" a black American guy asked

"A stranger who’s following me," he replied.

"Excuse me, I’m not a stranger. My name is Elizabeth."

"I like you," the boy smiled. "By the way, I’m David. This big-head best buddy," he said.

"Nice to meet ya," I said.

"Babe," a dark girl came kissing David on his cheek. She was putting on a bum short and a body-hugging top.

"Hi, honey," she said in an angelic voice.

"Elizabeth, meet my girlfriend, Charlotte."

"Hi, pleasure to meet you," I said.

"You look pretty. Trevor is your girl?" Charlotte asked.

"No," I shouted.

"You guys are a perfect match," she said.

"No, no," I stuttered. She sat beside me.

"You drink," she said, wanting to give me a glass.

"No," I said.

"Do they have soft drinks here?" I asked.

"Nah," she replied.

"Then I would stay like this."

"Are you on TikTok?" she asked.

"I'm not on any social media," I told her.

"Wow and you're pretty," she said, surprised.

"Give me your phone number," I gave her the number.

_The party continue.....
