Christmas music was slowly echoing down the hallway from the living room, the curtains were open showing a light falling of snow and best of all you woke up to the sight of Will standing over you - smiling.
"Merry Christmas!" Said Will, full of joy. A spectacular change from last night.
You sat up, after Will fell asleep you layed him own on his bed and tucked him in. You decided to sit on the edge of the bed to make sure nothing else happened, but before you knew it you had curled yourself up on the corner of his bed and nodded off yourself.
"Merry Christmas Will" You rubbed your eyes and yawned, "What time is it?"
Will looked over at his clock, "7:44, i got up about five minutes ago, do you want some breakfast?"
"Ohh yeah please, what about your mum and brother though?" You realized that the thought of them seeing some knives and forks floating in the air might just freak them out.
"Don't worry" reassured Will "Mum and Jonathon have gone for a walk, I said that I wanted to stay here so we have the house to our selves for about an hour or two!"
"Oh nice," You stretched and stood up from the bed, "Last one to the kitchen has to stuff the turkey for dinner" You jumped up, swung the door open and got a head start of Will.
"Great thanks, I don't really fancy shoving my hand up a dead turkey's arse today thanks," Will laughed and walked out of the room.
You ran into the living room, barefoot against the soft carpet, and were greeted by the 2 meter tall Christmas tree laced with popcorn strings, tinsel, various baubles (including one Will made when he was 6) and it was topped with a shining star. Underneath were about 20 untouched presents, all wrapped perfectly. Well. Maybe except for the two that Will wrapped. Above the front door was some mistletoe and around the door frame hung red and green tinsel.
The place looked magical, and even more so today.
You were too busy admiring the decorations to notice that Will had gotten to the kitchen first - by walking.
"Bet ya" Will stuck his tongue out and you did the same.
You sat down on the sofa, turned on the TV and started watching Charlie Brown.
"What do you want to eat? We have Cornflakes, Weetabix and Eggos. I can also make you some bacon, sausages, and eggs if you want.." Will was searching the cupboards trying to find anything that he could serve.
"Errmm, just a bowl of cornflakes, please. Oh, and a glass of orange juice please" You smiled at Will, you didn't want to ask for bacon because last time Will cooked that he nearly set the whole house on fire.
Will called you over to the table once it was all ready.
"Bon appetite!" Will placed your food down in front of you, then sat down next to you and started to eat his Weetabix and Eggos.
"Mmmm!" You forgot how much you loved cereal, "My compliments to the chef, for all his hard, painstaking work"
Will gave a sarcastic smirk, and you both continued to eat your breakfast. Once you had done so, the two of you sat down on the sofa to watch some Charlie Brown - It was Will's favourite show.
"Oh! I forgot to mention. Later on Lucas, Mike and Dustin are coming over to have a Christmas themed game of D&D. But you're in luck, it's only a short game. Not like our normal 10 hour campaigns." Will chuckled.
"Okay, when you say "short" how long do you mean?" You glared at Will, to be honest, you could already make an educated guess at the answer.
"Err, three hours?" Will gave you a sheepish smile.
