The second semester of Blake and Friends' sophomore year was beginning in two days. The entire gang save for Jamie were lounging around the sitting room on the second floor near the boy's dorms. The group were all holding the packages that they had received from one another in their gift exchange. They decided not to open them until they were all together again and were all anxious for the final student in their group to arrive.
"So guys am I late?" Said a familiar voice from the doorway. Trinity squealed as she scrambled to her feet and ran over all but tackling the new comer, giving him a soft kiss.
"What's up Jay?" Bobby asked from the couch where Phoebe was lounging against him.
"Just got back… Man it's good to be home!" He said wrapping his arms around is girlfriend and returning her kiss softly. After a moment they both walked back over arm in arm and sat down on the floor beside Shylow who had Max leaning against his chest.
"So are we gonna open presents now or what?" Evan asked with a laugh. After many people agreed they all moved into a circle. Trinity and Max, who were always the ringleaders in activities like this began to make an announcement.
"Ok people we're gonna go counter clockwise start with…" Max began before closing his eyes and pointing, "You!" He said pointing over a Kitty. Trinity held up a finger before Kitty could unwrap her present.
"Before you open that here's the rules!" Trinity started to speak, "Don't say who you got, the person whose opening is gonna guess and if they got it right then the person who had them will say so or if not they get three guess before their person says it was them!" She finished receiving a few nods.
"Ok so I can go now?" Kitty asked with a laugh receiving a nod from Trinity. She slowly began removing the blue wrapping paper with dreidels that was on her gift. After removing the paper she opened a box containing a pair of shell earrings with a necklace that matched. She looked up at the three Hawaiian's and narrowed her eyes for a moment.
"Layla!" She said calmly receiving a nod. Several people clapped before they moved on to Piotr. He opened a large gift bag and carefully removed the tissue paper. Then he took a paint pallet and a set of oil paints out of the bag. He blushed and looked up scanning the circle of friends.
"I am honestly unsure of who would get me a nice set of paints such as these, I have never told anyone here how much I love to paint!" He told them shaking his head with a smile, "I give up…" He added with a laugh. Trinity smiled at him raising her hand.
"It was me, I had a hunch that you like art…" She told him, "You speak very poetically, like an artist!" She finished. Next they all looked over at Alex who quickly but carefully unwrapped his box, opening it to find surf board wax.
"Um… Well it's not Mari obviously… Tabitha?" He guess seeing Tabi shake her head, "Ok… Ev' is it you?" He turned to look at Evan.
"Yep good guess!" He told him before looking at Mari. Mari opened a gift bag which contained several comic books. She laughed and stated that she automatically knew it was Bobby, who stated that she was right. Next came Bryce who received a set of Metal coffee mugs. He first guessed Piotr who told him he was incorrect then after scanning the faces in the crowd pointed to Tabitha who nodded her head chuckling. Ruby opened her gift after her boyfriend clapping when she saw it was an oil burner, it also came with a book that explained how the different scents effect your moods.
"Oh my god Max thank you!" She stated without even guessing several people laughed before Max said that it was indeed him who had given her the gift.
"Of course it was you Max, you're the only one who knows where to get stuff like that!" Bobby commented with a laugh. Sitting beside Ruby was Layla who opened a box with bubble wrap and a weird stand. When she removed a medium sized orb from the wrap she raised an eyebrow.
"Uh… Ruby?" She asked honestly not sure if she was right, when Ruby nodded she frowned and looked over at her Russian friend, "Peter is this from you?" she inquired receiving a nod. Everyone in the room gave him a weird look.
"It's hollow and has color water inside!" He explained gesturing to the orb. Layla sat the stand on the ground and place the orb on it before lifting her hand and making the water inside of it swirl around. She clasped her hands together and smiled over at him.
"Thank you Peter I love it!" She told him swirling the water around once more. Everyone clapped again before they moved onto Blake. She opened a bag which contained a T-shirt from this band that Blake had grown to love called 'The Veronicas' and a pair of Rainbow striped toe socks. She thought for a moment then turned to Kurt.
"I think it's you… you and Max are the only other people who listen to them and Max got Ruby so it has to be you Kurt!" She stated hearing her German friend say that she was correct. She turned and looked at Tabitha who was next. Tabi pulled a can of Wax out of a gift bag and looked up at her male Hawaiian friend.
"Alex?" She asked him, he nodded and said that it was for her skateboard. She thanked him before they moved on to Shylow. Shylow had a tube that was wrapped in silver wrapping paper. When he opened the end he realized that it was a poster tube and pulled a poster carefully out. He unrolled it to see that it was non-other than a vintage Captain America poster.
"Sweet!" He stated looking over at his the friend he had known the longest, "B?" He asked her to which she shook her head. He was perplexed momentarily thinking about who it could be.
"Bryce?" He guessed again receiving another shaken head, "Jamie?" He threw out another name receiving a laugh and a no.
Phoebe raised her hand and chuckled a little at the surprised look on her friends face.
"You read the old Captain America comic books all the time!" She stated seeing him nodding, "I found that while trolling the internet and knew you would like it." She added. He thanked her multiple times as he very carefully returned the poster to its tube. Max came next opening a small box that came taped to a larger box which obviously contained an article of clothing. The little box had a naval ring with a rainbow heart shaped charm and the larger had a black T-shirt with another rainbow heart.
"Blake?" He questioned slowly.
"Nope!" She told him in reply.
"Uh who has been picked already… Bobby, Evan, Trin, Layla… Tabi, Peter and Kurt… Alex and Phoebe" He made a list of names before speaking again, "Ruby…" He stated looking at the girl.
"No sorry Max… that would be weird though since you got me!" She added making him nod his head.
"Kitty?" He asked again getting a shaken head, "Then who was it?" He added seeing Bryce slowly raise a hand.
"I don't know if you like them but I heard you had your belly button pierced…" He said scratching the back of his head.
"Oh no they're great!" He said with a laugh, "Thank you Bryce!" He told the other boy who nodded his head and said you're welcome. Next came Kurt who opened a bag with a black and green beanie and a matching scarf. He looked around before his eyes fell on Ruby. She nodded in reply.
"My cousin lives in the same building as Darius so he came by and help me with ideas" She told him seeing him smile and say thank you before slipping the hat onto his head, this made several people laugh. Trinity was next, she opened a bag that contained a book of exotic animals and birds.
"…Kitty?" She said looking at the book with a raised brow.
"Yeah I thought you could like use it to practice your shape shifting!" Kitty told her.
"Oh that's awesome, thank you!" Trinity replied flipping through the book and landing on a page with a capybara. She looked at it for a moment before closing her eyes and transforming into a black and white form of the creature on the page. Several people clapped before she switched back and looked over at her boyfriend. He unwrapped a box that contained to boxes of herbal teas and a book about meditation. He looked at Max confused.
"Did you get two names?" He asked seeing Max's look of equal confusion. Max shook his head before they both looked around the room. He shrugged his shoulders as if to say he had no idea. Blake raised her hand but said nothing. Jamie nodded and thanked her before they moved on to Bobby. Bobby had a box full of Scott Pilgrim comics and said that he knew it was Shylow. The psychic nodded his head in response after receiving a thanks.
Bobby and Jamie both could help but smile as Phoebe went next removing a toy corgi dog from a box squealing before looking at the switch on his belly. She flipped it and saw it move it jaw barking and its tail start to wag. She and several of the girls laughed and clapped.
"Jamie!" She exclaimed before she flipped the switch back on the dog. He nodded sheepishly in response.
"It's awesome Jay… thank you!" She added before they all looked at Evan.
"This means Mari had me!" Evan stated before pulling a jar of wax out of a bag, "For my board right?" He asked her getting a nodded response. He thanked her before most of them stood and announced they were head to their rooms many hugging their Secret Santa's before leaving.

Blake enter her room about an hour after Layla did. She frowned seeing the worried look on her girlfriends face.
"What's goin' on Layla… is everything ok?" she asked moving to sit beside the girl on her bed. Layla sighed before she shook her head.
"I had a premonition… one about the future of our friends… of your future!" She told the feral girl who looked confused.
"How do you know it wasn't just a regular dream?" She responded slowly, the blonde looked up at her with a solemn glance.
"I didn't give him the details and he promised not to go looking for them in my mind… but I talked to Professor Xavier about it… he said that based on how real it was a could have indeed seen the future and that it occasionally happens to non-Psychics!" She answered looking at the floor.
"You're breaking up with me aren't you?" The dark haired girl asked looking away from her girlfriend. Layla closed her eyes as they began to water.
"I don't want to but I don't have a choice… I know in my heart that it's the right thing to do… I hope you understand!" She stated shaking a little. Blake looked over to see her crying and her heart sunk down in her chest. She gently wrapped her arms around the other girl.
"I love you… and if you think that this is for the best I understand hun…" She told the blonde girl softly, "I hope I still have you as my friend though…" She said before she felt the other pull away. She had a sad smile written on her face and nodded quickly.
"Of course!" She said firmly before giving her one last hug, "Now I hate to make you move but I really need to pee and I need to get up!" She told her laughing knowing it would break the tension. Blake snorted with laughter standing and stumbling back a little before she laid down on her own bed and closed her eyes deciding that a nap would probably help calm her nerves after what she had just good through.
