As she handed him a beautifully wrapped gift, Christopher's stomach sunk. He was sure his gift for her was nothing at all as good as hers. He had hardly any money, but he did his best with his friend's gifts. Which only included four people's, but it was still a lot. Christopher reached down into his own bag and pulled out a small box
with a a necklace inside and handed it to her with his face bright red. He didn't want to tell her that it looked so shabby because the key on it was one to his cellar at 'home' that he'd accidentally brought to school with him attached to a second hand chain. But he hopes that was the new style with the girls these days. He just wanted Cass to have a nice Christmas.
"But I'm not fat." Cass said in response to his Santa comment. Or at least she hoped she hadn't grown fat over the hols...
Then handed him the box that had his name on the card with the
book in it, while she took the small box from Christopher, and opening it slowly, trying to make the suspense last longer..which wasn't longer than a few minutes considering that all she had to do was lift the top cover...revealing a small key necklace thing that made her gift look lame.
Meh.
She smiled as she lifted it off the box and twirled the pendant in front of her. Then she placed it on the palm of her hand and turned her smile towards him
"Thanks Christopher. Its beautiful. Thank you. " She did have a thing for cute necklaces
