" How about we help each other?" He says and I look up at him, eyes still wet from the tears streaming down my cheeks, heart freshly broken from the public humiliation and betrayal that was Lucas's breakup. I can faintly make out the first droppings of snow floating magically under the light of the street lamps. It's that time of the year, a time for wool coats, a time for relaxing, none of which I'll be doing. "I'm an orphan with a wicked aunt and a boyfriend who left her because she has nothing to her name, how could I possibly help you?" I say another sob escaping my lips. "Marry me" he replies and my eyes widen in anger. Is he mocking me?. I look into the eyes of this stranger and see he's dead serious. "I need a wife, you need a home, marry me and you'll have all you want". I nod.

A Snowy Marriage (A Christmas agreement)

"You're doing it again, you're thinking, staring idly into space and thinking about something"

Arden is the one to speak now, she's one who speaks now, she's looking at me with a displeased look on her face and I seriously don't know why.

I seriously don't know why she's looking at me like that.

Alright my actions are enough for her to look at me like that because I have practically been looking like I will simply die the moment we crossed the gate into this place but still....

I thought she was not even going to be around too much. I thought she was not going to be around much this time, she had told me as much, she told me as much.

She told each and everyone of us that much, that we would be getting to see less and less of her now and I'm annoyed at her for this.

Well I'm not annoyed, it's just that she my friend, she's my best friend, she's my first friend the first friend I have ever made here and so I would have loved to spend more time with her but yet it seems her leg injury is a little bit serious.

Her leg injury is a little bit critical and so she will need to attend to it.

I am saying all this, I'm doing all this so that I can remove my mind from the impending doom that is us going back into the winter Mansion.

I am still tired, I'm so tired and bleary-eyed from yesterday's late night escapades as well, well it wasn't really a late-night escapade, we had simply come here and then she had ordered whatever she needed to get herself back on track, and he had ordered a whole bunch of other things which she practically did not need, but yet he placed it in front of me anyways.

I had done nothing except pass the food comincally at Alice, then look at the group of people around me.

If Arden is going to go now, then who exactly is going to go next?.

Who is going to go next and i have to roll my eyes at this.

I am becoming very very paranoid and I'm guessing that it is not a good trait to see in someone who should be as independent as me.

I have no parents, i have no friends, I have no siblings, these wonderful set of people have accepted me in, no matter how much I would like to stay with them forever I still cannot.

They will also get married, they will also have families of their own and then I will be thrown away to the side.

I know this isn't true, they will still love me unconditionally but still you get what I am saying.

I am tired and I am trying to think, i'm trying to think about my next line of action will be.

I do not know, i don't know what I'm going to do once I get in there once more.
