Hanging By A Moment (Sequel to Funhouse)

Chapter 20

"Merry Christmas, Chez" Fraz greeted me at his & Sarah's doorstop

"I cant believe it actually snowed, . . Real snow and everything on Christmas day" I said giddily

"It is something special, How many times did you fall on your arse on the walk over?" He laughed

"Not once" I said proudly

"Really, That's disappointing"

"Oi" I said poking him as I followed him into the house

"Well welcome to the mad house" He laughed

"Sarah stressed?" I asked. She was attempting to cook her 1st Christmas dinner for the four of us and she'd been determined to do it with all the trimmings.

"She's not to bad, . ..Yet" He said taking my coat from me

"She in the kitchen?" I asked

"Yep"

"I'll go say hello" I told him as I went in search of my blond friend

She was standing over the stove looking hot & bothered with bits of flour covering her face, Her hair stuck flat to her head from the steam, I couldn't help but laugh when I saw the sight of her.

"Oh F*ck off you" She cursed catching view of me laughing outside of the kitchen door

"I'm sorry, Couldn't help myself babe you look a state"

"B*tch" she cackled

"Happy Christmas" I told her as I entered the room

"Happy Christmas Chezza" She smiled

"Here got you this" I passed her a bottle of her favourite whisky, Southern Comfort.

"Oooh Great, Thanks Hun" She said taking the bottle from me

"Here get this down ya" She said passing me a glass of what looked like milk with sprinkles of pepper

"What is it" I asked eyeing the glass up suspiciously

"Try it, Its festive" She told me

I took a sip of it, It was surprisingly good but different. I couldn't put my finger on what it was but there was definitely some sort of Alcohol & spices in there

"You like it?"

"Its not bad, What is it?" I asked

"Its EggNog" Sarah told me

"Eww there's eggs in there" I wiped my mouth in disgust

"A few yeah" She laughed

"That's disgusting"

"Its Festive init, Gotta have EggNog at Christmas" She told me as she fiddled with the oven

"Don't let her fool you, Chez. Its Sarah's excuse to have a drink in her hand as soon as she wakes up" Fraz said standing in the door way

"Oh shut up you" She laughed poking her tongue out at Fraz

"The facts don't lie babe" He giggled

"Go and make yourself useful and set the table, I need to have a word with Chez before Kimbo turns up" Sarah told her boyfriend

"Fine" He said wondering back off down the hall

"Whats up" I asked

"Follow me" She said, I followed her as she made her way down the hall to the back of her house and into the conservatory "Take a seat" she instructed. I did I was told and sat down.
