//------------------------------// // Eleventh Day - Enjoying Christmas Eve: // Story: The Dazzlings 12 Days of Christmas // by Zenyattaluver677 //------------------------------// It was currently 12:15 in the afternoon on December 24th, it was Christmas eve, Adagio was currently in the living room vacuuming and Aria and Sonata were both upstairs. Aria was busy putting away the clothes she’d washed for Sonata earlier that day back in her dresser and Sonata was playing with some of the toys that were in her bedroom. Aria glanced over her shoulder every few minutes to check on her younger sister and then went back to putting away Sonata’s clothes when she saw how Sonata was doing. Sonata looked up at her older and protective sister and watched as she finished putting away her clothes, smiling at her older sister when Aria turned to face her after shutting the drawer that Sonata’s undergarments went in. “Ari can you come with me downstairs to the basement? I want to play with my toys.” Sonata asked, explaining she wanted to play with her toys. “Yeah I can come with you, just let me go grab my phone from my room and then we can go downstairs.” Aria softly answered, returning her younger sister’s smile before turning and walking over to her bedroom door. “I’m coming with you.” Sonata said, getting up and following Aria out of her bedroom, closing her door behind her. Aria and Sonata walked down the hall to Aria’s bedroom and into Aria’s room once Aria opened the door, they then walked into her room and Aria grabbed her phone off of her iHome, which it was currently sitting on because it was charging. After she’d grabbed her phone, she turned to face her sister, who smiled at her and then gestured that she wanted to be carried. “Ok, I’ll carry you down there.” Aria said, gently picking up her younger sister and walking out of her room once Sonata had her arms and legs wrapped around Aria’s shoulders and lower waist. Aria gently closed her bedroom door when she exited and then walked back down the hallway, past Sonata’s bedroom and to the stairs which she descended when she reached them. After reaching the main floor, she walked all the way down the hallway and then turned right and walked down the basement stairs into the basement. Once she was in the basement, Aria walked across the main area to the door that lead into Sonata’s playroom and opened it when she got to it. “Alright, here we are. Now, do you want me to sit in here or out in the main area?” Aria asked as she gently set Sonata down once they’d entered her playroom and she turned on the light. “Stay in here.” Sonata answered. “Ok. I can do that.” Aria replied before walking over and sitting down on the small two-person couch in Sonata’s playroom. Sonata walked over to where all of her toy bins were and grabbed the one that had all her toy horses in it and sat down on her playroom floor so she could play with her toy horses. Aria watched her for a couple minutes before kicking her feet up onto the couch and lounging on it as she turned on her phone and unlocked it. Once her home screen came on, she went to her Instagram to check it, looking over at Sonata every few minutes to check on her. *2 HOURS LATER* It was now 2:30 in the afternoon and all three girls were now sitting in the living room, Adagio in her recliner, Aria on the couch and Sonata sitting on Aria’s lap. Adagio glanced up at the clock on the TV from the fashion magazine she was reading to check the time and decided she might as well go look for something to make for dinner. She closed her magazine and set it down on the arm of her chair and pushed down the foot recliner on her chair and stood up, Sonata turned to watch her for a few seconds while Adagio stretched. The TV currently had one of the cartoon channels on it, as Sonata was watching her cartoons while Aria played on her phone, looking up at the TV every few minutes as she often did when Sonata watched her cartoons. “I’m going to go look for something to make for supper.” Adagio said to her younger sisters once she finished stretching her arms. “Cool. Make sure it’s something she’ll eat and that she can eat.” Aria replied without looking up, gesturing to Sonata for the second part of her sentence. “Yeah I know.” Adagio said before turning and walking through the doorway that led from the living room to the kitchen, rolling her eyes as she did. “Ari.” Sonata said as she gently wrapped her arms around Aria’s shoulders and rested her head on Aria’s right shoulder while still watching her cartoons on the TV. “What?” Aria softly asking, looking down at her younger sister to see what she needed. “I love you.” Sonata sweetly replied, looking up and smiling at her older sister. “I love you to.” Aria softly said, gently kissing Sonata’s forehead after returning her smile. “What’s tomorrow Nata?” Aria asked a couple minutes later after Sonata’d looked back at the TV. “Christmas.” Sonata excitedly answered, looking back at Aria. “Yeah. Are you excited?” Aria softly asked again as she turned off her phone and set it on the side table beside the couch. “Yes. I can’t wait to see the presents under the tree.” Sonata replied, looking back at the TV to continue watching her cartoons. *5 HOURS LATER* It was now 7:35 in the evening and the girls were all sitting in the living room, in the same spots they had been earlier, Adagio was flipping through the TV channels looking for something to watch, while Aria and Sonata were looking at something on Aria’s phone. Sonata looked up and watched Adagio for a couple minutes and then turned to look at her oldest sister, deciding to try and talk to her. “Dagi.” Sonata said to get her oldest sister’s attention. “What?” Adagio asked flatly, turning to look at her youngest sister. “Are you excited for tomorrow?” Sonata asked, pointing to the Christmas tree to get her point across. “Oh, yeah I am.” Adagio answered before turning back to the TV and continuing to flip through the channels. “Ooh that’s pretty Ari.” Sonata said, pointing to the thing that was currently on her older sister’s phone screen. “Yeah. I don’t really know what it is but it’s pretty.” Aria replied, letting her Sonata look at what was on her phone screen for a couple minutes. “So, what’s the plan for tomorrow?” Aria asked a couple minutes later. “Um, wake up at seven and open everything, then just do our regular daily things and then maybe go into town for dinner.” Adagio explained, slightly glancing over at her younger sisters for a second and then back at the TV. “Eee! I’m excited!” Sonata excitedly exclaimed, turning and looking at her oldest sister. “Yeah, I figured that.” Adagio replied without looking over. “Ari can we watch something on your phone?” Sonata asked, turning back to look at her older sister. “Sure, do you want to watch it upstairs in my room?” Aria asked, going out of her Instagram and switching to her Netflix. “Yeah.” Sonata replied, getting up off of Aria’s lap so Aria could get up off of the couch. “Alright let’s go.” Aria said after she stood up and pushed in the small foot recliner on their side of the couch. Her and Sonata then headed upstairs to her bedroom.
