Sunshine ☀️:
Hey, Charlie
You there?
[SENT: 10:14 AM]
[READ: 10:52 AM]Shortie 🎖:
I am now
What do you need?Sunshine ☀️:
An answer would sufficeShortie 🎖:
Smartass
An answer to what?Sunshine ☀️:
What are your plans for Christmas?Shortie 🎖:
Why?Sunshine ☀️:
Charlie 😭
You're not meant to answer a question with another questionShortie 🎖:
I know, but why do you have a sudden interest in my Christmas plans?Sunshine ☀️:
I wouldn't exactly call it sudden
Plus, mom might have mentioned that your parents were talking about spending Christmas in the UK this year with relativesShortie 🎖:
There it is
Let me guess
Lisa heard about that and slipped you the idea to talk to me about itSunshine ☀️:
... Possibly
She's just worried about you
Mom cares about you as if you're her daughter too
She just doesn't want you to potentially be alone on ChristmasShortie 🎖:
😒😒🤨🤨Sunshine ☀️:
Okay. I don't want you to be alone eitherShortie 🎖:
I'm never alone.
Aslan follows me pretty much everywhereSunshine ☀️:
Now who's being a smartass?
So... can you answer my question now?Shortie 🎖:
They've done more than talk about it - my parents flew out 3 days ago 😜
I'm just going to chill with Aslan and enjoy my time offSunshine ☀️:
That's... depressingShortie 🎖:
Hey!Sunshine ☀️:
I'm just being honest
How about spending Christmas with me?
With my family, I meanShortie 🎖:
I don't need you making compromises or altering your plans with your family for me
I'll be fine on my own, ChristopherSunshine ☀️:
See, that's the thing, you don't have to do everything on your own
We promised to be there for each other, to be by each other's side, and I happen to take that promise extremely seriouslyShortie 🎖:
Okay, Captain America, no need to start quoting your films to meSunshine ☀️:
You started itShortie 🎖:
🖕🤬🖕Sunshine ☀️:
So, what do you say?
Spend Christmas with us, just like when we were kids?Shortie 🎖:
You know what, fine
If it'll make you happy then I'll spend Christmas day with you and the family
What time should I turn up?Sunshine ☀️:
Ha. Did it slip your mind that we all stay at Mom's place for Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day? Like a sleepover.
If you're taking part in Christmas with us then you've got to do it rightShortie 🎖:
Damn it. I hoped you guys didn't still do that since you've got your own places now
What's the point in decorating your own house if you're not actually going to be there on Christmas Day?Sunshine ☀️:
"So that you're in the spirit of Christmas - and you don't get bombarded by questions from the kids if we visit you before Christmas Eve."Shortie 🎖:
Okay. I'm in.
Aslan and Dodger are going to love thisSunshine ☀️:
Yes!
I'll tell Mom that you're coming
She's going to love this since she loves having you around so much 😜
In fact, I think she'll claim you've just made it the best Christmas everShortie 🎖:
Sure...
