"Karter, wake up."
Someone who distinctly sounded like Lola was shaking him.
"Shhh… five minutes," Karter said.
"It's Christmas; wake up."
Karter was sure Christmas was tomorrow. He still reluctantly opened his eyes. Lola stood next to his bed. The light was on. He rubbed his eyes.
"Christmas is tomorrow, why are you here so early?" He yawned.
"Why the fuck is there glitter all over you?"
Karter groaned, remembering why he was so tired and why he had glitter all over his body.
"Did you guys get freaky with glitter? Braydon had glitter all over him too when he lets us in.”
Karter laughed. That was, in fact, what had happened. They had all tried reprimanding Braydon. Instead, it had turned from punishment to an all-out fuck fest in glitter. Karter wasn't even sure how he ended up in his bed in his room. He had clearly passed out in the library where the mess of glitter was.
“I’m not sure if I should be Team Edward or Team Jacob," Lola commented.
“What?” Karter asked.
“Well, you have glittering vampires, but I’m pretty sure the werewolf didn’t sparkle like fairy.”
“What the fuck are you talking about, Lola?”
Lola smirked “You know, the book where vampires glitter in the sunlight.”
Karter rolled his eyes at his sister. "Why are you here Lola?"
She hit him in the shoulder. He grunted.
"Don't sound so happy to see your sister."
Karter laughed and pulled her in for a hug. When he did, he smelled something off about her. He took in a big whiff.
That can't be right.
He did it again. "Holy fuck! You’re pregnant!"
Lola smiled weakly, "Yeah."
Karter hugged her tighter. "Congratulations."
He pulled back and saw the tears in her eyes.
"Why are you crying?"
She crawled into bed with him and hugged him tightly.
"Do you think I'll be like her?"
She was referring to the woman who had given birth to them then abandoned them with their sick father. Karter knew without a doubt that his sister was nothing like her. He may not know anything about the woman who gave birth to them besides that she left her children behind, but he knew for a fact Lola wouldn't do that.
"Not a chance. You're going to be a great mother. The little monster is going to be spoiled rotten."
She snuggled closer. "Yeah?"
It broke his heart that she felt she may end up like their birth mother.
"Yeah, don't worry. If you need a punch in the head, I'm here," Karter said, kissing the top of her head.
They lay there for a bit before Lola pulled away and sat up.
"Fuck, I have glitter all over me."
Karter laughed. There was clearly red glitter all over the front of her shirt.
"You're the one who got in bed and hugged me." He laughed at her distress.
She punched him before getting out of the bed and heading toward the door. "Hurry up and get dressed and join us."
"Wait; everyone is here?"
She turned to roll her eyes at him. "Duh. Christmas."
"That's tomorrow."
She shook her head at him.
"Yeah, tomorrow during the day, but we are here now so when it hits midnight we can celebrate Christmas.
