A Neellant fic set between "I do" and

"it's all about christmas eve". Someone has to surrender...

"Surrender!" Gallant called to Neela who was wrestling him for a packet of maryland cookies.

"NEVER!" Neela echoed, loud enough for the whole building to hear, they were both in fits of laughter, Neela and Michael were on the sofa watching celebrity poker, whilst still fighting for the cookies,

"I love you Mrs Gallant." Michael purred softly into Neela's ear.

"I love you maryland cookies." Neela purred back, giggling half way through, they then started kissing passionately on the sofa as Ray came stumbling out of his pig sty he calls a bedroom.

"Oh get a room" Ray muttered with a disgusted look on his face.

"Get an alarm clock, your shift started at 7, it's now quarter past." Neela cheeked back.

"Oh shut up and surrender your cookies, Rasgotra." Ray snapped in a mocking, british voice, obviously deciding to take Gallants side. Boom, a maryland cookie hit Ray on the back of the head with accuracy.

"Never."
