It had been a long day of exchanging gifts and chowing down on food, and now a carb and sugar induced drowsiness overshadowed the friends in the house outside of Dundull. They were watching holiday specials in the sense that their eyes were open and they were in the same room as the television, but it was hard to tell if any of them were aware of what movie was playing.
"You look happy," Rebecca commented, noticing Scott's sleepy smile.
"Hmm?" awareness came back and his smile went away, rather unsuccessfully as he was trying to hide the smile rather than actually losing it.
"Too late, I saw you smile. Crazy how much has changed," she grinned, thinking back to how when she first met him the only smiles he had were mean or sarcastic.
"Yeah, this is... this is very different," he muttered as he looked around. He never would have guessed he would end up away from Butterhill, surrounded by friends.
"And you thought having friends would be terrible," she teased before yawning, tired from the day.
"I'll admit it, this is pretty nice," he conceded, grinning when a very sleepy Justin gave him a thumbs up, not speaking so he wouldn't disturb Connie who was almost asleep on his shoulder. Following Connie's lead Scott leaned over, head resting on Rebecca. She shifted, getting comfortable on the couch, and hugged him as she relaxed.
Yeah, having friends was pretty nice.
