Day 1 of 24. Prompt: "I didn't expect you, of all people, to be this excited about Christmas."

Zosia had to do a double-take when she entered Jac's normally sleek apartment. Everywhere she looked there was a Christmas decoration. Lights, tinsel, ornaments. She gave a suspicious look at the mistletoe hanging up in the doorway. It was only November 20th and it looked like Jac Naylor had gone all out in decorating her apartment. She had a thought that maybe it was Jac who was responsible for the decorating in the hospital as well if this is how much effort she went to.

This was so unlike Jac that it left Zosia speechless for a few minutes.

She only realised she hadn't moved from the entrance to the apartment when she heard Jac clear her throat, a perfectly arched brow rising above those green eyes as she glanced at her.

"I-" Zosia finally moved from her spot, walking slowly down the hallway as she shrugged her winter coat off and draped it over the back of a chair.

"I didn't expect you, of all people, to be this excited about Christmas." She spoke, her eyes still scanning the apartment with slight awe.

"It's for Emma." Jac shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly as she sunk down into the plush sofa in her open plan living room.

Zosia shot Jac a look, she knew all of this couldn't just be for Emma. Maybe there was a soft warm side of Jac after all. She only ever caught small glimpses of it, if she blinked she would miss it but it seemed Christmas had a profound effect on the sharp-eyed cardiothoracic surgeon.

A smile pulled at the brunette's lips as she sat in the space beside Jac on the sofa. "This is really amazing," her eyes scaled the ceiling before she spotted the perfectly decorated Christmas tree in the corner.

Jac eyed Zosia, a small smug look on her face at Zosia's reaction.

"Eggnog?" She offered with a smirk.

Zosia's eyes finally landed on the woman sat next to her, she noticed the shaker in her hand that was no doubt full of eggnog before catching the smug look on her face. She rolled her eyes.

"Sure."

She took a moment to wonder where Jac managed to get the eggnog from without her noticing but to be fair she had been fairly distracted.

Zosia settled back in the sofa as she watched Jac pour them both drinks.

Today was just full of surprises, it seemed.
