Intro Christmas used to be your favorite time of the year, but lately… it’s been heavy. Every year you (22) had a conjoined celebrations with your small family, and your parents best friends, the Adlers and their kids. It was amazing, full of laughter and love and magic.

And it’s hard seeing all the effort you put into everyone else’s gifts just for your stocking to be empty. This year, you feel the same heaviness as usual as you come down the stairs of the Adlers house, seeing the full living room with wrapped presents, knowing your pile is small. But… you gave gifts so… that’s all that matters, right? Until you see your stocking, and… for the first time since your parents died, it’s full! You squeal, turning to Andrew with a smile, immediately pulling him into a hug, but behind you, you noticed Liam, (23) one of the Adlers kids and your enemy watching you intently
