6:00pm

Titania got dressed in warm clothes and was about to leave the apartment when her phone rang.

"Hello?" She answered.

"Hey, sweetie," Jillian said over the line.

"Hey, mom."

"How're you been doing?"

"I'm fine, everything's been fine for the most part."

"That's good. Schools going well?"

"Yeah, it's going well."

"That's great. Anything else going on?"

"Actually, I met a girl."

"Really?"

"Yeah... she's really great. Her name is Isabelle."

"I'm happy for you!"

"Thanks, mom."

"Well, I just called to say happy holidays. We really miss you."

"Thank you, mom. I miss you guys, too."

"Take care of yourself, okay? We'll talk again soon."

"Alright. Thanks, mom."

"Bye, sweetie."

"Bye."

When Titania finally made it outside her apartment building, she found Isabelle waiting for her.

Isabelle beamed when she saw her and immediately kissed her eagerly.
She took her hand and the two of them walked down the streets of the city.

"Isn't it beautiful out here?" Isabelle asked.

Titania looked around at the beautiful blankets of snow on the ground, twinkling lights, and holiday wreaths and decorations.

"Yeah... it really is."

"So, your mom called you earlier?"

"Yeah."

"You alright?"

Titania squeezed her hand.
"I'm alright."

"Are you going to be okay tomorrow? Because you know I'm going to be away with my family."

"I will."

"You know... what if we take a couple pictures to send to your family?"

"Really?"

"Yeah, of course. We can take some of the decorations, the snow, you. They'll probably feel better, and you'll probably feel better."

"That's... a great idea. Thank you."

"Of course."

"I know what else we could do..."

"What?"

Titania let go of her hand and took off towards the park.

"Where are you going?" Isabelle called after her.

Isabelle caught up with her at the park.
"What? Why'd you run away?"

Titania smiled and threw a snowball at her.

"Hey!"

"What?"

"You'll regret that."

Isabelle formed a snowball and threw it at Titania.

Titania quickly dodged to the side.
"Ha, ha!"

Titania threw a snowball and hit her in her chest.

Isabelle threw another snowball and hit Titania in the face.

"Isabelle!"

Isabelle started laughing. When she started forming another snowball, Titania hid behind the tree.

Wait, I don't hear her anymore.

Titania slightly stepped out.

Where'd she go?

Without warning, Titania got hit in the face with a large snowball

"Hey!" She yelled.

"Ha! You can't hide from me!" Isabelle laughed.

Titania threw a snowball back at her but she dodged to the side.

"You can't get me!" She mocked.

Titania threw another one and it hit her shoulder.

"Hey!"

Titania threw another snowball and caused Isabelle to fall backwards.
She quickly came to her side.

"Oh, my god, are you okay?" Titania asked.

"No..." she groaned softly.

Titania extended her hand and Isabelle grabbed it and pulled her down into the snow.

"Isabelle!"

Isabelle giggled and took Titania's face in her hands and kissed her deeply.

"Here I'll take another one of you," Isabelle said to her.

Titania posed in front of Isabelle's smartphone next to her apartment building.

"Beautiful!" Isabelle admired.

"Want to take one with me?"

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"Okay."

Isabelle came to her side and held up her phone.
Titania kissed her while she snapped the picture.

"All these came out really well. Your family will love them," Isabelle told her.

"Thank you, Isabelle."

"You're welcome."
