She’s excited to host her family from Ohio this year — she’s planned the perfect Christmas week. But they cancel last minute. So she’s like, “Well, I guess I’ll go to Cleveland!” But then she bumps into her neighbor Cooper, who’s like, “Why should you give up your perfectly curated Christmas? Just stay. Embrace the singleness.” And she’s like, “You know what?! I’m gonna do it!” It doesn’t take long for her to feel a bit lonely and a bit silly. Luckily, there’s Cooper. They start doing activities both together and separately. Like going to a fancy restaurant but sitting at separate tables. She also agrees to help him plan this charity event. They go to a Christmas mixer together and have fun, but she keeps getting little waves of sadness about being single. They watch Rudolph together and almost hold hands — but obviously that would be too much . She accompanies him to a family gathering, and it goes great. At this point, they’re basically in love! Then it’s time for his company Christmas party. They go together, she’s feeling great… until she overhears a coworker saying Cooper brought his “lonely neighbor” because he felt bad for her. Brutal. She’s hurt, tells him off, and leaves. After some self-reflection, she comes to terms with being okay being single on the 25th. But Cooper’s not okay with that. He has to make things right — and he does. He tells her he doesn’t want to be “alone together,” he wants to be together together. And they kiss. Big ones.
