''Russell! Wake up! Wake up! Wake uuuupppp!'' Noodles shook him awake,

''I'm up! What's wrong!'' Russell jumped up, looking around the room in a panic.

''Oh.... Noodles? You scared me!'' Noodles looked up at him, smiling.

''We have presents!'' Noodles jumped up and down, pulling him down the stairs.

''Noodle, c'mon now! Calm down, you're going to re open your cuts!'' Russell tiredly yelled, letting her pull him into the living room where 2D sat. He had his hand on his face, every now and then his eyes would flutter shut then opened back up again, quickly. Murdoc sat in the corner, he had a bandaid spread across his nose. He crossed his arms, with a simi-calm semi-pissed off look on his face.

"2D why the hell are you wearing a Santa hat?" Russell asked confused.

"Because I can."2D smiled a cheesy smile and Noodle blushed under her bangs,

''Also Noodles forced me to but, that's besides the point.'' Noodles playfully slapped 2D in the arm.

The doorbell rang and Noodle ran over to the front door swinging it wide open.

"Hiya Mrs Pot! Merry Christmas!" She smiled a bright smile.

"Hello Sasuki...Oops I meant Noodle hehe."

"It's alright."

"I brought someone also, he kinda wants to meet you.Sorry for bringing an extra guest." Rachel tucked back a stray curl with a slight smile.

"Its okay, Theres plenty of food for dinner." Rachel smiled and walked in. A Tall dark haired man followed behind her carrying a few presents piled on top of one large present.

"David sweetie put the gifts right there."

"You're lucky I'm even here..."

"Can we not fight right now. We can get along for a few hours." They heard a loud thunder from the living room. Noodle looked over to see 2D pop his head back up after falling asleep on his arm.

"Whatever..." David dropped the presents on the floor "Do you have any alcohol in this damn place?" He growled clearly in a bad mood.

"We got some beer in the fridge dad...But, we don't have that much... Kinda savin' it for later."

"I don't care..."He sighed slouching lazily on the stool.

"Hey purple haired shorty beer me."

"Ummm what?"

"Grab me a beer doll," Noodle cringed, him and Murdoc sound so much alike.

"But 2D just said we're saving them for later."

"You can drive right? Go out and buy more."

"Um...I guess...But...I mean I don't want 2D to get upset cause there is a lot of snow out...Bad conditions to drive in."

"Walk then..."

"I can't buy alcohol...I'm 16..."

"Dad please stop antagonizing Noodle."2D mumbled as he lit a smoke

"I'll get it myself... I don't see what got her panties in a bunch."

"David that's crude..."Rachel scolded. Russell stood up, clearly angry at his remarks.

"Don't talk to me like you talk to our son alright? I hate that. That's the reason our marriage is failing... Not my drinking..." 2D looked at the ground and sat next to Russell, as far away from his family as possible.
