That is so cute. I'm suppose that's foreshadowing Phoenix and Miles did become a pair next Christmas and Nick is the lovely present with some unwrapping from Miles?

This is very cute, and don't worry about it being too friendship-like; since I'm a pathetic dork (aka diehard fangirl XD) who looks for Phoenix/Miles hints in EVERY sentence she reads, the little smiles of affection are more than enough to make me go "awwww!"

Wonderful, wonderful story! The flow was good, the characters spot on, and I enjoyed every minute about it!

I'd probably play a prank involving ribbons on April Fool's Day, thanks to your story ;)
