“Okay, call me later,” Xyla said finally before hanging up the phone tucking it back into her coat pocket, disappointed despite her wildest beliefs.

It was Christmas in the city and while tourists flooded the streets on their way to Times Square and Rockefeller Center, all NYC natives knew the place to be was Schmitt’s Family Farm. Despite getting lost in the corn maze in the Fall, they’d decided to try their luck at the Christmas tree maze, only to be left walking in circles amongst the pine trees.

“That was my sister. My parents are visiting my Grandparents in Europe for the holidays and my little sister is spending Christmas with her new girlfriend,” Xy whined, rolling her eyes to mask her disappointment that she’d be spending the holidays alone. “Please tell me you’re not going anywhere for the holidays and please tell me I can crash your Christmas party,” she begged, a gloved hand reaching out for their shoulder. “Otherwise it’s just me and Butters this Christmas, watching Elf and drinking wine all alone. Or wait, you can join us! I’ll make a whole turkey dinner and well have left overs to last us until New Years.” @codstarters​

No matter where Jamie tried to turn, she always found herself back in the same dead end. Why she decided on trying to go through the tree maze by herself? She would never know. “C’mon,” she growled under her breath. Her hazel eyes moving to the ground as she tried to see if there was some string to lead her out of the maze... that was until she ended up seeing shoes. Slowly bringing her gaze up, when her eyes met the others, she was glad that it was someone that she knew. “This is a little embarrassing, but... I’ve been lost for about twenty minutes. I keep ending up here... please don’t laugh.” @grahamhodson​

You would think that Harlow would be tired of baking with having to do it for a living. Instead... here she stood near the gingerbread house station. It wasn’t like she had to bake anything, it was more decorating and it seemed like a cute idea. Seeing a few people teaming up, or couples doing it, that’s what made her step back a bit. She didn’t want to seem like that person who didn’t have anyone to help her or make it a fun moment ( even though she was. ) Turning her head, looking around, Harlow spotted a blonde she had recently seen. Taking a few steps towards the woman, she put on her best smile as she approached her. “Hi. Georgia, right?” Her smile grew. “Would you like to build a gingerbread house with me? There seems to be a lot of couples over there and I don’t want to be that lame person doing it by herself. Even though it would be better looking than what they could make, but still...” @grgiapch​

ASA HOLLAND - - SPOTLIGHT PARTY

Asa is wearing a green wristband and will probably be standing somewhere in the background, mingling poorly and wondering if there’s a way for him to fake an emergency and leave.

Isabella smiled as she walked around the Winter Wonderland festival that the beloved Schmitt’s Family Farm was hosting. The lawyer always loved Christmas. Like many others, it was her favorite time of the year. With a cup of hot chocolate in her hands, she took a sip of it as she watched people ice skate. The kids were falling but laughing which made her smile fade a little...not because of the kids falling, but because she didn’t have a child to do all of these fun activities with. When her mind was just about to drift to thinking about Walker and how much she missed him, her eyes fell on a handsome man who was watching people ice skate as well. “Are you thinking about getting on the ice?” She asked with a friendly smile. @owenmason​

The golden lights of the ballroom which made her dress shimmer, expensive bubbly on ice and a veil of mystery. “Let’s get out of here,” yet, the blonde caught herself leaning in to whisper to the person beside her. A friend or a foe, it didn’t matter. Cecelia and her team had done a wonderful job, truly, but Lara needed a break. If the blonde had to engage in one more meaningless conversation about the weather or be met with another faux smile, she’d scream. “I need some fresh air,” she took a deep breath, feeling the tightness of her gown constricting her.  “And there’s something you need to see.”

“I’d have more fun ingesting arsenic,” he spat quietly, finishing off his fifth flute or so of champagne. Party wasn’t that bad, but it wasn’t his type of fun either. Glancing at his company, he scoffed. He’d try to make the most of his night before the auction. That’s all he was here for, anyway. “Wanna dance?”

“Care to join me for a drink? I keep running into some friends asking me to dance and I am trying to keep myself from embarrassing myself for the night. I never knew how to act in places like this” the male revealed with a shy grin before tilting his old fashioned in front of the nearest person a toasting manner, taking a small sip before taking a deep breath. “What about you? Do you have any words of advice? Are you having a good time? Bidding for something fun?”

theo almost felt foolish in the halloween costume, he blamed it on not dressing up other than to work since he was in his undergrad days. but. to anything to make his girlfriend happy. he roamed the door, not truly sure where he belonged in the crowds. he didn’t have social anxiety, he had stood before the united nations before this was just different. maybe he just wasn’t social. he took a drink of his wine. “maybe i should go check on theo,” he mumbled to himself, looking down to his watch, it had been about five hours or so since he had last seen his son.

“So, what do you think it’s better?” Johanna questioned as she felt someone sitting on an empty chair near her, trying to look as nonchalant as she could; shoving her ever shaky hands inside the pockets of her pantsuit. “Going all suited up to the nearest burger joint, have everyone stare at you while you eat fries and a milshake or go to a pizza joint with costumes on, maybe freak some people out with masks and fake blood while eating a slice?” she mused, trying to distract herself from the emptiness inside her stomach as she turned her attention to the person sitting next to her, a sly smirk on her features “Would your answer change if if I tell you my costume this year is Daria and it would look great on instagram to go to a pizza place dressed as her?”

[mcxicancharm]

Ari found himself outside of the venue, tinkering with the chords of the acoustic guitar he had paired up his costume with, eyes closed, inhaling sharply. The chef had never been keen to the type of excentricities the ball had to offer (even though he was glad he’d chosen to attend the event). He started then playing full on notes that quickly turned into a portion of a song, humming along with the melody before stopping cold in his track upon noticing someone next to him “If the whole sous-chef thing fails, I was thinking about starting a mariachi band” he mused halfjokingly, placing the instrument on the floor, taking a deep breath “I like your costme. Having fun?”

[harlowj]

“You’re going to go ice skating with me, right?” Harlow offered her best friend a wide smile as she looked at him with puppy eyes. Harlow was terrible with ice skating but she wanted something fun to do. She also knew that she would regret it if she didn’t end up trying again. She just didn’t want to make a fool out of herself... by herself while she continuously landed on her ass because she didn’t know what she was doing. “What do you say? I’ll bake you whatever you’d like when I’m in the bakery next.” @olliestonem​
