Christmas in Albert Square

Christmas rewrite

Me and Freddie woke up to the boys screaming, so we just giggled.

"Libby do you want to stay this morning for Christmas" Freddie asked "of course, do you want to eat at my dads" I ask hoping he will say yes "sure" he replied getting into a reindeer suit "what the heck is that" I laugh "I'm a reindeer" he said putting the hood up "and I have another for u" he handed me the same suit so I put it on and we went downstairs

What my Present record was:
Kat got me-new perfume
Phil got me- a necklace with a 'F'on it
The boys got me-named football shirt (Carter 18)
Alfie got me- a bracelet with my name on it

What I got others:
I got Freddie- a chain with 'L' on it
I got Kat- a new leopard print coat
I got Phil-a 'grumpy git' Christmas jumper
I got the boys- matching football boots and shirts with heir names and ages
I got Alfie- a Santa costume and a photo of me him and Freddie (which he loved the most)

Freddie was last and he gave me a ring box "it's not what you think" he said and as I opened it I saw 2 promise rings
"Freddie" I say gasping "one for me and you" he kissed my jaw and I kissed his lips "I love it" I put his on then he put mine on

After a while me, Freddie and Alfie went outside so Alfie could put stuff on the roof "Alfie i need a wee" Freddie said as me and him held the ladder "tuf you'll have to wait till I'm down" Alfie said reaching the end

When he was just a few steps from the roof Freddie threw me over his shoulders and ran inside, he put me down and ran upstairs "where's Alfie" Kat asks "I need to wee" Freddie said running upstairs and I shrugged but we heared a massive thud so I laughed and Freddie came back from the loo and we watched the boys open presents.

Phil went outside for a while so we knew he saw Alfie but then He came in laughing and winked at us so we laughed

After a while Stacey knocked on the door telling us Alfie was on the roof so we laughed and went outside to see "Oi you left me ere" he pointed at me, freddie and Phil so we stifled laughs "you left him up there?" Kat laughed "someone help me down please" Alfie whined "don't worry Alfie we got ya" I said as me and Stacey held the leader for him to get down

"Im gonna kill you two" he said "we're going to my dads"I said laughing and running "THANKS FOR THE PRESENTS" me and Freddie screamed as we knocked on the vic doors

My dad opened and gave us hugs. We went upstairs and saw everyone including my brother Ollie "where's mommy" he questioned "yea where's mum" I say "Janine didn't want her and Shirley here" dad said "What?" I question getting up and walking outside looking for mum and Shirley.

I saw them both walking so I invited them in saying I don't care what Janine said your family but obviously Janine was behind me she looked scared when they asked for forgiveness and quickly said "I forgive you now let's eat and you both look hideous in those costumes" she took us in and locked the doors and we wondered upstairs, me resuming my place by Freddie giving him a kiss

After a while Sharon came up the stairs "sorry to interrupt but I have to tell you all something" she said "go on then" Dad said. Sharon bought a girl in and she explained how Janine had blackmailed her to get to my mum and I snapped "you better run Janine because I'm going to kill you" I said but Freddie held me down "I HATE YOU JANINE I BELIEVE EVERYTHING THAT GIRL SAID BECAUSE YOU ALMOST GOT TO ME TO"I screamed hugging Freddie "What?" Dad asked "yea dad your precious wife is the reason I asked to go to a school away. She nonstop followed me and told me things like 'your parents will divorce one day and I'll come ruining ur life' or 'if I ever cozy my way in your out of the Vic and Micks life' so I asked to leave me thankfully you agreed" I said as a tear slipped down my face but Freddie quickly wiped it "I'm telling the truth" the girl said but dad told them to get out which they did and Shirley kicked off throwing a photo at them which was from Scarlett's personal diary when she ran off and mum followed

Shirley sat as Janine was telling her to leave and Freddie had my head on his chest watching shit unfold because there isn't much he can do

Mum came back and Scarlett ran saying everything's true and when Janine tried to take her away we all crowded around not allowing it to happen, in the end Shona took Scarlett away. "You four downstairs" dad said pointing at me, mum, Freddie and Shirley so we all stomped downstairs "your seriously believing her over us" Mum said

"Can I talk to my daughter and ell alone please" dad said as Freddie and Shirley walked off

"I love you both and I'm gonna divorce Janine even if we've not been together 48 hours. I still love u ell. Your my oldest friend and it's all my fault" Dad cried "no it's mine if I never drank it would be different I love u both so much" mum cried kissing my dad "my own kids won't speek to me" dad said "neither but we need to give them time" I said

After heartbreaking speeches I ran to Freddie "Freddie I need to get something off my chest" I said as Shirley opened up allowing people in "what darl?" He questioned me "can I have everyone's attention please" I say standing on a table getting almost the intire squares attention

"My dear Freddie, I'm so great full to have you in my life so I just wanted to say.." I paused

"I love you Freddie Slater" I finished earning cheers and claps when Freddie ran and kissed me but that moment quickly ended as I saw Janine storm out with my parents following so I ran as well with Freddie behind me "Liberty take care of Scarlett for us" my parents said getting into a car and driving after Janine

Linda's pov

We sped after Janine in the car as I tried phoning her "no answer just cut in front of her" I say "she's pregnant I can't do anything stupid" Mick said

After speeding a bit more she turned off "she's tuning off, quick turn you won't make it turn" I scream and we followed her to a construction sign we're we all got out "phone the old bill" Mick said as I searched for signal

"There's no signal" i shout as I saw Mick and Janine fighting. She got in a car and so did I "stop. What are you doing" I said trying to get the wheel "get off" she pushed me and we spun out of control, off a cliff into the water

"Janine wake up we're stuck" I cried not able to open the door

She woke up and we both screamed as the water reached my neck. I saw Mick and shouted "HELP HER FIRST" I scream as Mick helped leaving the door open so I quickly swam out and to the surface gasping for air until I got on the sand

I crawled towards Janine "where's Mick" I say as she looked at the sea "MICK" I scream "MICK NO" I cried again
