Hey guys! So….as you can guess, THIS STORY WON MY POLL! Yay! But, I'm going to try and make the "True Meaning of Christmas" story too, since that was in second place, but it will only be a one-shot. And if I really have time…I'll try to do "A Bree Carol". So I hope you guys enjoy this!
"Adam!" I shout, "Come help me put up the stockings!" Why wasn't Adam helping me? We are already were late putting up the stockings and decorations. We usually put them up a week before Christmas, but this year we've all been pretty busy with our busy lives. Well at least the Christmas tree is up. It's been up for about 2 weeks now. Tasha made sure to have us put that up.
"Coming Bree" Adam replied, walking up to me. "Let's do this!" He then looks over at Leo who's sitting down on the couch chilling. "How come he doesn't have to do anything?"
"Because he and Chase did the decorations last year" Tasha reminded him as she put the turkey she had dressed into the oven to cook.
"Yeah Adam" I added, "And this year, I want to have better decorations than Chase and Leo had." Adam rolls his eyes.
"Why do you want better decorations hung up this year than last year?"
"Because Adam, Chase kept bragging about how wonderful the house looked when he did it last year."
"But they were awesome!"
"Yeah they were, but he didn't have to keep bragging about it for FOUR STRAIGHT DAYS!" I look around the room. "Where is that butthead anyway!? This year it's his job to make the Christmas cookies."
"Why can't I make the cookies this year?" Adam asked.
"Do we really have to remind you of what happened last year?" Leo spoke.
"Ah come on guys" Adam pleaded, "I promise it won't happen again! I just got a little excited." I shake my head. There is no way we're going to let Adam make the cookies again.
Flashback of Last Christmas
"Adam" all of the family shouted, hiding behind the couch, "Stop shooting lasers out of your eyes!"
"I can't help it!"Adam replied still using his heat vision and shooting his lasers out aiming them everywhere from the kitchen, "It must be a glitch! I guess I got so excited when I looked at how wonderful the cookies I baked looked that I started to glitch!"
"Donald" Tasha said facing him, "Remind me next year to not have Adam make the cookies!"
"Yup I'll remind you" Mr. Davenport replied.
"Worst Christmas Eve ever" Leo complained.
"Well" I say trying to cheer us all up, "At least the cookies aren't burnt!"
"Yeah" Chase added peeping up over the couch to stare at the cookies on the baking tray on the kitchen counter, "They actually look pretty delicious….." All of a sudden we hear Adam shoot off one of his lasers and we smell burning cookies. "I take that back…" Chase squats back down behind the couch, "Now the cookies look awful…."
"Ugh" I shout, "Why does this stuff always happen to me?! I bet even Krane is enjoying his Christmas Eve wherever he's at!"
End of Flashback
"Umm I don't think you'll be making any more cookies any time soon Adam" Tasha tells him. She then looks down at her watch. "Oh my gosh! Its 5:00 already?! Man I have to go get ready for the Christmas party my friend at work is having!" She takes off her apron and heads upstairs.
"ACHOO!" An incoming snot ball comes flying towards Adam and I. I use my super speed to dodge Adam and myself out of the way. We fall to the floor. Walking into the room from the elevator is Chase. He continues to have a sneeze attack for a minute.
"LEO!" he cries out, his voice sounding like he has a stuffy nose, "Why did you sprinkle your 'sneezing potion' into my capsule?!" He sneezes again.
"I didn't sprinkle it into your capsule" Leo says in an innocent voice, "I swear."
"Well if you didn't do it than who did?" I notice Adam looking down at his shoes and softly whistling.
"ADAM" I cry out. He takes a deep breath.
"Fine it was me" he confessed. Chase points his finger at Adam.
"I should've known it was you!" He turns back to Leo. "Sorry Leo."
"Its fine" Leo replied. Chase turns back to Adam.
"Why? What in your mind would tell you its okay to sprinkle the sneezing spray into my capsule while I'm napping?" Adam shrugs his shoulders.
"I don't know" Adam laughed, "You're just an easy target I guess." He smiles really big at Chase.
"Knock it off" Chase snaps as he sneezes, "Great. Now I'm going to be sneezing all night long! Leo how long does the sneezing spray last?"
"Uhh" Leo started, "About an hour or two."
"What?" Chase took a deep breath. "Thanks a lot Adam."
"No" Adam playfully answered, "Thank you." Chase hopped onto the couch next to Leo.
"I can't make cookies while I'm sneezing!" he complains. Tasha rushes back down the stairs.
"Do I hear someone sneezing?"
"That would be Chase" Adam tells her.
"I'm fine Tasha" Chase informed her, "Adam sprayed sneezing spray on me while I was napping."
"Are you sure?" She puts a hand on his forehead.
"Yes Tasha."
"Well alright…" She started walking back upstairs, "You guys get back to work! There's still a lot of work to do."
"Yes Tasha" we all say. Once Tasha is gone Adam and I continue to put the decorations up.
"I see you're trying to make your decorations look better than ours last year Bree" Chase laughs, "Sorry to crush your dreams and all, but your decorations are not going to be better than ours right Leo?" Leo nods in agreement.
"Ohh you're in for it this year Chase" I reply. After what seems like forever, we finally get all of the decorations put up.
"Maybe you're wrong Chase" Leo blurts out, "Maybe they did do a better job than us."
"Leo!" Chase snapped, "Don't fall into the trap!" he then made a concerned face.
"What's wrong?" I ask, "You're not about to sneeze again are you?" He shakes his head.
"No" he replies, "It just smells like something is burning." I inhale a whisk of air.
"It does sound like something's burning, but I don't know…." Then it hit me! It must've hit everyone else too, because we all ran to the oven at the same time. Adam carefully opened the oven door and we all see the burnt Christmas turkey. Oh no. Tasha must've forgotten to set the timer for the turkey.
"TASHA!"
