opening the little door just as I did Beth ran down giving me a tight hug

"Hello angel! It's so good to see you I haven't seen you in ages!" She complained pulling back to give both my cheeks kisses before she scurried inside with her bags "harry, oh how are you darling?"

"Amazing Beth, it's lovely to see you" he smiled hugging her tightly

"Ahh there she is the beautiful one he keeps hiding from us, how are you y/n" Jolene smiled as she came in with her things

"Perfect jolene, I haven't seen you in forever" I smiled giving her a hug

"Yeah well Benny likes keeping you away from me" she laughed "he's jealous" she winked before she too headed inside and Benny came in looking stressed

"Hello" I smiled

"Hey, traffic was a nightmare, airport was insane, sorry I took so long"

"it's alright, I had harry keep me company" I smiled giving Benny a kiss before returning to the kitchen and everyone had hugs and kisses saying how long it had been and how much everyone missed each other the girls putting more presents under the tree and Jolene sat on the sofa beside harry Beth on a cushion on the floor already accepting that she was going to end up there eventually so she might as well get comfy. Plus I think she was used to sitting on our floor the amount her and Benny play speed chess sat on it,

"Now... I have been here five minutes I've said my hellos, what I want is a drink" Beth says

"Wine, whiskey, peppermint vodka, water." Benny offered as he slipped his jacket on the hook putting everyone else coats there too

"Wine!" She smiled

"I'll take a wine" Jolene added

"I think I will have a water" harry began

"Ohh harry come on" Beth whines "it's Christmas"

"Alright I'll take a peppermint vodka, whatever that is" harry shrugs

"It means Benny stirs the vodka with a candy cane" I smiled getting one of the bottles of wine and trying to open it

"I'll definitely have that then" harry smiled

"Wish I'd gotten that... eh next round" Beth shrugs

"Ughhh Benny, be a man" I said handing him the bottle and bottle opener

"Yes dear" he laughs taking it from me but he too could not open the wine "god damn it this better be the best fucking wine I've had all year" he complained stuggling to open it as I made harry a glass of vodka stirring it with a candy cane untill it turned a light pink

"Let me have a go" harry offered getting up taking the bottle from Benny but still to no avail "fuck! Who picked this wine"

"I believe Benny did" I giggled

"Let me have a try" Beth suggested so harry passed her the bottle she struggled and struggled but still nothing so she passed it to Jolene to twisted the opener and it popped making everyone cheer she handed me back the bottle so I did Beth and Jolene there glasses

"Benny?" I asked

"I'll have a wine as it's finally open" he laughs sitting on a chair from the table turned to be with everyone else so I handed everyone there drinks

"Y/n? Where's my festive drinking buddy?"

"I'm sorry Beth, I'm not drinking" I said as I smiled coming over with my glass of water

"Ooooohhh little lady's not drinking" Jolene smirked leaning her head on her arm

"Ohh, Benny you dirty little bastard" Beth smirked

"Hu?" Benny asked confused and then it clicked what they meant

"No no no! I'm not pregnant! I'm just not drinking" I told them "I can't cook dinner and do all the other host things if I'm drunk or hungover" I explain

"True, wine was the reason we all had Chinese food at Beth's on Christmas day" harry explained

"Did any of you complain about take away on Christmas day?" She asked

"No" I laughed

"Who are we waiting for?" Jolene asks

"Towen's, the boys if there coming, make clio if she's coming and Matt and Mike" I explain returning to the kitchen

"Uughhh" Beth complaints "can we check if clio's coming"

"Why has it happened that clip has become the little horrible aunt of the family that knowone wants anything to do with" I laughed

"Ohh my God she kinda is" Benny laughs just as the door knocked "I'll go your busy" he says getting up from his chair to go to the door opening it to reveal

"Hello everybody!" Matt smiled

"How are we all?" Mike smiled they both came in Benny hanging up there coats and such and they came around giving everyone hugs and kisses putting there stuff in the forming pile next to the sofa and presents under the tree making our tree look rather small now with so many presents under it for everyone "how are you doing little one?" Mike smiled as he came and gave me a cuddle
