All I Want For Christmas Is You

CAT'S POV:

"I am so sorry I'm late," I apologized to the hostess as I grabbed my hip apron from her hands. She was giving me a sarcastic glare, and I glared at her back. "Come on. It's my birthday give me a break," I stated as I finished tying the apron around my lower back. I flipped over my hair and tied it into a messy bun and flipped back over. "Happy birthday by the way," the hostess said and I thanked her. "Alright, back to work," I said happily as I skipped back into the kitchen. I could tell the hostess was staring at me in shock because I was never particularly "happy" to be there.

I looked back into the kitchen and saw the boss cooking today. "Hey Mister Hammond," I chimed. He smiled at me. "Ready for work today aren't ya?" he asked, following it with a chuckle. I nodded, making my thick bun jump up and down on my head. "Get that table will ya? The other waitress isn't here yet, and I think we are getting a job interview with another girl your age today," he said and I nodded. "Alright," I agreed and I walked calmly over to the table near the front entrance mister Hammond told me to get. It had a man and a lady sitting there.

"Hey welcome, can I get y'all something to drink?" I asked the table excitedly, not paying attention to who they were and they nodded, giving me their order of two sweet teas. I went back by the counter and grabbed two mason jars and the pitcher of tea. At the restaurant they served all their drinks in mason jars. It made it seem more country-like. I don't know.

I filled the two jars to the brim and placed two straws in them with ice, followed by a slice of lemon. I picked them up in my hands and brought them back to them and they thanked me more than I expected. It was quite interesting. Normally I was the hated waitress. This was odd.

I asked them their order and I got them their food and I left them to eat alone for a while.

I sat at the picnic table near the center of the room, and pulled my phone out of my pocket. I scrolled through Twitter and Facebook, and then I heard the door open, and in came our new upcoming waitress, I suppose. I didn't look up to see who it was, but I heard the voice and recognized it immediately. Before I could get up, I heard her familiar chime..

"Oh my God Cat! I've been trying to get ahold of you since graduation!"

It was Karla.

HARRY'S POV:

I drove to her house with my rented car and I parked in her driveway. I sighed a moment before unbuckling my seatbelt. I gently opened the door, and managed to close it without making a loud slam. That was my goal. I win.

I walked slowly up to her house. There was a familiar feeling around it. It was a bit strange to say the least. I felt like I had been there before.

I gazed at her house and felt the hot summer breeze on my face. I was glad I wore shorts that day. I never wore shorts, and I was surprised I even brought any. It was really hot outside though.

I slowly knocked on the door and I gazed at it for a moment before I saw a girl peeking through the side window at me. She continued to stare until we made eye contact and I smiled and waved at her, and I believe I heard a scream... possibly.

The door slammed open and a girl a little younger than Cat was staring, and smiling at me. "Oh. My. God." she said still smiling a huge, almost impossibly huge smile. "Hello, I'm looking for Catherine. Catherine Taylor. Do you know her? Am I at the right house? You know... I shouldn't even be here. This was a mistake," I said, rubbing the back of my neck and looking down at the ground in embarrassment. "Yeah, Cat and I are kind of sisters now. She lives here. She's just not here now. She's at work. And please come in!" the girl said and I shook my head. "I really have to find Cat. I don't have time to chit chat," I stated looking beyond the girl, into the house that Cat was probably at this morning, and where she slept last night... I sound creepy. But that's how much I cared... even though I REALLY shouldn't be caring since I have Cara.

"Well, I could get ahold of Cat, really quick!" the girl smiled, and she pulled her phone out and dialed a few digits. "Oh and my name is Katie by the way," she smiled. I believe that this was Cat's cousin. I guess she lives with her Aunt and Uncle now. "Hello? Cat? Yeah, are you able to come home?" Katie asked, her smile dissappeared but then it re-appeared. "Okay, okay I'm sending you a surprise.... No not a message. A SURPRISE!" she yelled and then hung up. Her face jolted to mine. "Do you know where Hammonds BBQ is?" she asked me and I shook my head. "Um... I don't live here remember?" I said with a giggle. She giggled too. "Well, go there. She's there. Like RIGHT now. Go please go! Go Harry go!" Katie pushed me out the door and waved me off as I jogged to the rental car. I flopped back into the drivers seat and I looked up to see Katie still smiling and waving at me. I smiled and gave her a thumbs up, she copied my reaction. I typed the BBQ place's name into the GPS and it gave me direct directions.

Cat, here I come.
