Chapter XXI - Fixed

[Phil's Family Home, Lancashire, 9:25 am, SU 25/12/16]

DAN: (mid-yawn) "Morning, Philly."

PHIL: "Oh my God, finally! Merry Christmas. I've never stayed in bed this long on Christmas. This feels weird."

DAN: "What time is it?"

PHIL: "Almost 9:30. Come on, let's go!"

DAN: "I don't--"

PHIL: "I swear to God, if you say you don't want to get up, I will start crying. I want to open my presents!"

DAN: "Fine, I won't say it."

PHIL: (pouting) "Dan, come on. It's Christmas." (teasing) "Isn't it ripping you apart wanting to know what you got from Santa."

DAN: "I've been naughty."

PHIL: "Luckily Santa is very forgiving. I saw some presents with your name on under the tree."

DAN: (confused) "We agreed not to get each other presents."

PHIL: "Not from me, you doofus."

DAN: (wasn't expecting that) "Oh."

PHIL: (trying again) "Come on, I have cinnamon scented shower gel that I've been saving especially for Christmas."

DAN: (laughs) "And you're willing to share?"

PHIL: "Only with you."

DAN: (sighs, pulls back the duvet and sits up) "Fine."


[Phil's Family Home, Lancashire, 9:43 am, SU 25/12/16]

PHIL: (entering the living room, pulling dan behind him) "Merry Christmas!"

DAN: (laughing at phil's excitement) "Yeah, merry Christmas."

KATH: (after many hugs and laughs, explaining to dan) "It's tradition to eat breakfast while opening the presents."

DAN: (looks at cinnamon rolls and cookies and cake) "Looks delicious, thank you."

PHIL: (sitting on the sofa, quickly pulling dan next to him, eating a cinnamon roll) "These are so good, mum. Well done."

KATH: "Thanks, boys."

CORNELIA: (handing out presents) "Who's this for? It doesn't have a name."

MARTYN: "Check the bottom."

CORNELIA: "Oh yeah, this is for you."

PHIL: "Ooh."

DAN: (reaches for a cookie, takes a bite, phil swipes it out of his hand and finishes it) "Hey."

PHIL: (cheeky grin) "Sharing is caring."

DAN: (rolls his eyes and reaches for another cookie, eats half of it, feeds the other half to phil) "Are you happy now?"

PHIL: (grins) "Really happy."
