Ch. 9: The ‘Perfect’ Gift
12:00 (noon) – Christmas Eve
“Merry Christmas, sir, can you spare some cash for the children?” The volunteer said waving his bell, as Leo Owen Maddox entered the mall. Leo nodded in reply and dropped a five-dollar bill into the bucket, then proceeded inside. He headed for Victoria Secret, where he would find the perfect gift for Riley.
A Victoria Secret store associate greeted Leo when he walked in, “Hi, can I help with anything?”
“Yes, I’m looking to buy my girlfriend the perfect gift for Christmas. I have quite the evening planned tomorrow, if you know what I mean.” He said winking at the sales girl.
“Mm, I do. Lucky girl”, she said smiling back.
Leo smiled with his reply, “Oh, you have no idea.”
“Well right this way, I believe I have the perfect thing for you”, she told Leo as she waved for him to follow. She pulled out sexy, Santa lingerie. Leo licked his lips and pointed to the one that showed just enough skin but still left some to the imagination. It was a red velvet chemise, like a little dress that’ll slip off with ease. It had a long v-neckline that would reveal just enough boobs. It was lined with faux fur and a sewn in black belt right under the cleavage. The bottom of the chemise was also lined with faux fur. It came with a Santa hat to match.
The sales girl nodded and licked her lips, “we can go in the back and I’ll try this on to give you an idea what it’ll look like on her. How does that sound?” She asked while stroking his muscular arm.
Leo, taking in the generous thought, paused for a moment. Then smiled with a reply, “I would but I only have eyes for one girl. Sorry. I would like to purchase this though.”
“She really is lucky. Follow me to the cash register.” She said, “that’ll be $68.87.”
Leo paid her in cash and in exact change and walked out of the store with his gift for Riley.
As he was walking toward the exit of the mall, he thought to himself, now, where can I get a Santa suit this late in the season? Then, the idea struck him when he saw the man dressed in the Santa suit ringing the bell, collecting money. He would wait for the Santa to switch shifts with the next guy and that’s when he’d make his move.
3:00 pm
Leo was waiting in his car, when Santa #2 showed up. Leo put on his mask and gloves and followed the first Santa to his car parked in the alleyway behind the mall. There were no potential witnesses, no cameras, and this guy had no clue as to what was about to happen.
Leo got out of his car and quietly snuck up behind the man dressed as Santa. He put a cloth covered in chloroform over the man’s mouth and nose until he passed out. Leo undressed the man, stealing his Santa Costume, including the fake white beard. He stuffed the suit into his car. Then got the man’s car keys and found a blanket on the inside to cover the half naked man still lying on the cold ground. As Leo was about to leave, he looked at the man, feeling bad for what he had done. He decided that he would wrap the man in the blanket and lay him the backseat of the man’s car. He figured that’s the least he could do since he stole his suit and was about to leave him in the frigid air, half naked.
Leo jumped in his car and left the scene without anyone noticing. He had to go home and wrap Riley’s gift. His excitement filled the car as he drove home belting, “Here comes Santa Claus”, with the biggest grin on his face. Santa Claus was coming to town and Riley would be his Misses Claus.
