Padraic, I miss you dearly. I wish you were here. I sit by the window in the Cullens living room looking out into the woods. I hear Emmett laughing at something Carlisle says. But I pay little attention to the conversations going on around me. Occasionally, someone will ask me if I'm alright. I just give a weak smile and nodnod not nodd d. The days pass oh so slowly. The more days that pass, the more I miss Padraic. Esme begins to worry when my appetite changes. I just can't seem to force myself to eat as much with Padraic gone. I try so hard to keep from crying when I go upstairs to go to bed at night that I often pass out. Even Padraic's frequent phone calls fail to cheer me up, but only make me miss him that much more.
The hours pass slowly in mind but quickly in real life. Before I know it, it is Christmas Eve. Padraic calls to wish us all a merry Christmas. And we all wish him the same. Esme, insisting that I need something to keep me warm, brings me some hot cocoa to drink. I sit there drinking my cocoa slowly while trying to listen to Edward playing his piano. After I finish my cocoa, I say goodnight to all the Cullens and go upstairs to get ready for bed. The hot cocoa put me to sleep quickly.
The next morning, when I wake up, I slowly get my shower and put on the beautiful, off the shoulder, dress with 3/4 length, flutter sleeves that Alice wants me to wear for Christmas. I have Alice do my hair becuase I know it will make her happy. As I descend the stairs, I notice not only the seven members of the Cullen family but one more figure standing by the door. My heart starts pounding in my chest. As I approach the bottom of the stair, I begin to reconize the eighth figure.
"Padriac!" I run up to hug him happily. "I thought your were gonna stay with the Denalis."
"Yeah, well, I was going to but I found I missed you too much. Looks like you missed me, too."
Rosalie laughs and says, "Like you wouldn't believe. I'm glad your back. You wouldn't believe how hard it was on Bridgid to stand there and watch you leave." She gives the two of us a gentle smile for what seems like the first time. Esme brings Padraic and I some hot cocoa and we sit down and catch uphe was only gone for a day how much is there to catch up on?.
After the two of us get caught up, us and the Cullens all celebrate Christmas together. Padraic sat down at Edward's grand piano and I sit down beside him. He starts playing and I sing along to some of our favorite songs.
"Don't mind the snow that's falling,
the carol singers calling.
I'm just happy
to be spending our first Christmas
Together. Just you and me."

Overall Good, but I still do not like that he and Bridgid caught up after being AWAY like a day or so. If they were away longer please specify. Is there more? or is this the end? you could make these characters into a novel without the cullens of course
happy holidays Jenn
