A Blue Christmas
Chapter 1
It was December and there something missing in The Commonwealth. Johnny looked around and found it to be the lack of Christmas decorations. He sighed to himself and wished he could go back to before the war.
Nora and he would have the best Christmas parties in their neighbourhood. It was fun and full of laughter. That was something Johnny needed right now. Some light laughter and jokes. He followed behind Piper wishing they could do something with all their friends.
"What's wrong Blue? You seem preoccupied." She asked turning around to face him.
"I was just thinking about how much I missed Christmas." Johnny replied back sighing.
"Oh, I think I read about that once. It sounded like so much fun; maybe we should do something like that?" She suggested waiting for him to catch up. Johnny liked how their minds seemed to read one another.
"That would be great. We could cut a tree down, make our own decorations, gift each other presents and hold a dinner." He said as he reached her side.
"That sounds like a great idea Blue. Let's do it, I'm sure Hancock won't mind cooking. He's a great chef."
"Yeah as long he doesn't try to sneak chems into the food this time." Johnny said smirking. Piper giggled and said,
"I'll make sure he doesn't. So who else should we invite?"
"Well I'd love for Nick to come. He's been there for me since I saved him from Skinny Malone."
"Yeah can't forget about him or Preston either. Curie would be a nice addition, she'd probably love it. I suppose we should invite MacCready as well, I mean he has saved your ass more than once and you know what he will be like if we don't invite him." Piper suggested.
"I think I might also invite Paladin Danse." Johnny said more quietly.
"Really? Do you think that big robot will even want to come? Won't it be breaking some Brotherhood rules or something?"
"I feel bad for him Piper. After being exiled all he does is spend his time down in that bunker. It would be nice for him to get out and actually socialise."
"Well it's settled than. I also think Sanctuary will be the perfect place to host it. If you want Blue I can arrange the invites? I know how busy you are with the Brotherhood missions at the moment."
"That would be great Piper, thanks." Johnny replied back kissing her on the cheek.

"Okay so I've personally gone around and invited them all. Danse was a little iffy at first, but don't worry I managed to get that big tin can to promise to come." Piper said as they patrolled the grounds of Sanctuary.
"Great and what about the tree?" Johnny asked as he watched all the settlers excitedly putting up decorations around the whole settlement.
"Oh, Preston and I found one yesterday not too far from here. We've already cut it down and put it up. Just needs to be decorated, which you and I can do once HC starts cooking."
"So where is everyone anyways?"
"They should all be arriving very shortly. Oh there's Curie and MacCready. I asked if he could travel with her up as she was not comfortable travelling alone. I hope he wasn't too much of a pest for her." Piper said pointing at the two coming up the road. Johnny walked over to them and greeted MacCready with a handshake and Curie with a hug.
"Merry Christmas guys." He said.
"I can't believe we are actually celebrating Christmas Monsieur Johnny." Curie said in her cute French accent.
"Me either. I need a drink." MacCready said sarcastically looking around the newly decorated Sanctuary.
