He’s changed. Over the years I've seen that in him. We've learned from our past and learned from our mistakes.

“Something tells| might just have a chance,” he whispers, as he leans in, his nose brushing mine, making
my heart pound violently.
His fingers curl behind my neck, as he slowly tilts his head, gazing atthrough half hooded eyes.
A thousand emotions are coursing through me, and my eyes flutter shut when the sudden sound of something
shattering makes both Sebastian and | jump apart.

“Zion! Sia?!” | shout, wondering what happened as Sebastian takes the stairs three at a tand I'm right
behind him.
We both cto a stop at the bathroom door, where the shower rail is now on the floor, clearly having smashed
into the mirror before falling to the ground. Sia stands there barefooted among the glass.

“Oh, it’s ok, are you hurt?” | ask as Sebastian places her in the hallway.
“I'm ok, I'm sorry for disturbing you,” she mumbles, makinglook at Sebastian quickly.

“Here, Mom,” Zion says as he places the brush against the open door.
“Thank you, darling,” | respond, taking it from him as Sebastian takes the glass shards from me.
“I'll go get rid of these.” He says, and | nod.
“And I'm off to bed, Xander’s asleep,” Zion says, leaning over and givinga kiss on the cheek. “Goodnight
Mom, Dad.”
“Goodnight,” I reply, kissing his forehead.
“Get srest,” Sebastian says as he exits the bathroom.
“Oh yeah. Xander asked to place this under the tree for Santa to see.” He says holding up an envelope.
Another letter for Santa?
“I will,” | say, taking it from him.
Zion and Sebastian both leave, and | place the envelope aside as | brush up the rest of the glass, hoping I get
