Actor Imagines: Thomas Brodie Sangster Book 2

Industrial Tinsel

I arrived home from the store with all the shopping I would need for the amount of entertainment we were to be doing over this holiday season. I had left Thomas to clean up and to decorate... mostly because I didn't want a repeat of last year. When it comes to Christmas Thomas can be particular and at times dam right obsessive. If one thing is out of place then the world shall end!

So I left it to him, it's his business I just cook.

But then I opened the door to my home and I was taken aback a moment. Each and every picture frame on the wall had a draping of white or blue tinsel, the staircases banister had bright blue sparkly tinsel wrapped around the main banister and then white glittery tinsel on each of the upward parts. Each door frame had tinsel, the kitchen counter had a trail of blue tinsel going all the way around the counter top.

And that was only the beginning.

I turned to the Living Room and dining room and I could have had a heart attack.

Every picture frame had tinsel, every chair had tinsel, the god dam rug had tinsel around it, the tv, the windows, the mirror, the mantle, the table, the sofa, the fucking ceiling had tinsel.

I stopped short of seeing the room Thomas stood in with a bundle of lights attempting to untangle them as the tree stood in the corner waiting for decoration. He saw me and smiled

"Hi hun" he says

"What have you done to our house!" I complained

"Don't you like it?" He asks

"How... when... where did you even get this much tinsel?" I asked "did you ransake a b&m?"

"No, I was on the internet-" he began

"Ohh god, Thomas what have I told you about the internet?"

"But this is good, I went online and I found this place where you can buy tinsel and other decorations in bulk!"

"Ohh no"

"I think it was meant for people who decorate those massive trees like in shopping centres and town squares but now I own an industrial roll of tinsel!" He smiled "so I've been cutting it to whatever size I need as I go" he explained "I haven't even started upstairs yet"

"How much was this industrial roll of tinsel thomas?" I asked

".... Some money" he says

"Thomas" I warn

"It wasn't that expensive."

"Thomas!"

"One thousand pounds"

I sighed letting out a calming breath putting my shopping on the floor putting my hands together and gently tapping my fingers together "okay"

"Okay?"

"Okay..." I nodded

"You're not mad at me?" He asked

"Ohh no Thomas I'm not mad." I answered "I'M GOING TO MURDER YOU!" I Screamed jumping in him
