I Follow Jesus

Chapter 6~It's That Time Of Year Again

This morning, the ambience that woke everyone up was not that of birds, it was a Christmas tune.

"That's right kiddies!! It's Christmas month!!" Liam shouted jumping on the beds.

"Does he ever get tired?" Lois moaned.

"At least he's not a grumble bum like you," Zayn said to him crawling out of bed.

Lois glared at Zayn but Zayn simply ignored him making Lois even more annoyed at him.

The boys all groaned when their door was cheerfully opened by Jesus.

"It's that time of year boys!!!" he said all too happy. Ronald Hodge-senpai was behind him equally as happy.

The boys all groaned. Today they had to redecorate the whole house in festive decorations and listen to nonstop Christmas songs. This was definitely the 'best' time of year.

"So what festive breakfast have we got this morning Niall?" Jesus asked.

"Ummm, pancakes?" He replied.

"Excellent!" Jesus jumped with joy.

"Don't you mean eggsellent?" Liam corrected.

"Liam please, not now. I can't be mad at two things at once," Lois said.

"See you downstairs for breakfast in 5!" Jesus ran out the door and down the stairs followed by Ronald Hodge-senpai.

"Well I'm going to start cooking, you know what they're like when they're hungry," Niall said plodding down the stairs.

After breakfast Jesus ran from the dinner table and to the cupboard under the stairs. He pulled out 5 large boxes.

"Here's one for each of you," Jesus said pushing the boxes into the hallway.

They got up and took a box each.

"Each box is labelled for what it is. Have fun putting them up, I have important stuff to do," Jesus said pulling Ronald Hodge-senpai off into the ballroom.

"I swear Jesus has gotten weirder since Ronald Hodge-senpai came along," Harry stated.

"I ship it," Zayn said, "Jonald Hist-senpai."

"Y'all weird," Lois said taking his box labelled 'ENTRANCE' to the front of the mansion.

"What's gotten into him?" Niall asked.

"Pancakes," Liam said taking his 'TREE' box to the living room.

The other boys groaned and took their boxes to the three hallways of the mansion to set up.

Lois was setting up the wreath on the front door when Harry and Liam came running up to him.

"What is it?" he said without taking his eyes off what he was doing.

"Look what we found!" Harry and Liam said excitedly.

"Now I know why Jesus hates it when we talk at the same time, it's creepy as," Lois muttered under his breath.

"What?" Liam and Harry asked.

"Nothing, what is it you found?"

Harry pulled out a figurine from behind his back and shoved it in Lois' face.

"It's you Lou!" Harry exclaimed.

"Lou? Who the hell is Lou?" Lois said.

"It's you!" Liam cheered.

"Lou? Why the hell Lou? For this whole goddamn story I have been Lois and now you suddenly decide to call me Lou? What the hell is wrong with you people? Isn't my name good enough for you?" Lois vented at them.

"Oh, we thought it was a constant misspelling of Louis. We actually thought your name was Louis just it was spelled wrong every time," Liam explained.

"You two are actually hopeless. And another thing, why the hell is that a figurine of me? Where did Jesus get that?" Lois asked.

"Oh this isn't the only one, all of us are there," Liam said.

"Yeah there's Niall, Zayn, Liam.." Harry began.

"I know who you're talking about dumbass," Lois cut him off, Harry's smile fell.

"Jesus is creepy, I think we need to have a discussion about this, I don't know if I can continue like this," Lois sighed.

"You can't leave, what will the rest of us do?" Harry asked worriedly.

"No, I mean that we should all leave as a group because Jesus doesn't seem, well, right in the head if you know what I mean," Lois explained.

"What do you mean, 'not right in the head'," Liam enquired.

"Never you mind, you're probably just as weird as he is," Lois muttered the second bit under his breath so that Liam couldn't hear him. He finished putting up the wreath and placed the last few ornaments around the entrance.

"Call the other two will you, I want a meeting in the bedroom asap," Lois ordered taking his box back to the storeroom.

*In the ballroom*

"So, what am I going to do for this dance competition? I want something original and new. Something that will inspire generations to come and maybe even cure fangirl famine," Jesus waltzed around the room, almost in interpretive dance.

"It's a dance competition, not a Miss Universe competition," Ronald Hodge-senpai reasoned.

"But you see, that's what they want you to believe. That this is just a fun time and means not much, but what they're really looking forward too is the one that expresses today's issues. Something they can analyse and get a message from. Don't you think?" Jesus directed the last part to Ronald Hodge-senpai, but he was already gone, where? Who knows?

Jesus humphed and walked out of the room, the hallway here had been decorated to perfection. He took a look at the entrance, living room and the other two hallways and they were all decorated as well. Didn't take them long to do, but where had they gone. More importantly, where had Ronald Hodge-senpai gone?

Jesus walked around the house for a bit but no one was in sight. What a lonely time just before Christmas. A time when he should be happy and celebrating, when he should be choreographing a dance, when he should be writing his wish list for his birthday and Christmas. Didn't anyone see that? He felt like people were becoming more distant. An idea snapped in his mind, they were becoming distant because they were bored and Jesus had the perfect plan for them to become interested and enthusiastic once again.

 AN: I know this chapter is short but I want to write a really intense one next so hold onto your hats for more cooking Niall, carrot loving Zayn, serious Lois (not Louis) and annoying Liam and Harry!
