"I really must apologize for Emmett's behaviour," Edward said guiltily-after all, Edward had been the one to point out Rudolph's nose looked like one of those light-up dolls. In his defense, Edward had no idea Emmett was going to drug Rudolph and attempt to pull the nose off.
Santa Claus sighed and stretched out one hand for the mug next to him; he rolled his eyes at Edward's pointed stare. "It's coffee, not milk. Your father put me on a diet." Edward snickered softly at that, but abruptly shut up when Santa glared at him. Having Father Christmas give you the hairy eyeball was not a pleasant experience.
A loud crash echoed from the main room, where Emmett's agitated voice was heard complaining about the lack of non-Christmassy television channels. Edward turned back to Santa and shrugged apologetically. Santa frowned, an odd expression on his face, and looked out the window before jumping up.
"For the love of milk and cookies, what has your blasted brother done now?" he groaned, stomping out the little door at the side. Edward followed him, casting another worried glance at the main room where Rosalie could be heard shrieking at Emmett to 'leave the goddamn television alone'.
Santa strode over to Comet, a rather adorable reindeer with a suspiciously sick face. Edward groaned internally and, just for the fun of it, shrieked out, "Emmett!"
Ah. It felt good to scream.
Edward sniffed, once, twice, three times. Then he scrunched his face in disgust and recoiled from the horrible stench emitting from Comet's anus. And, now that he thought about it, from Blixen too. Edward turned to glare at his family, who had all come out in response to his call. Emmett stared at Comet in disgust before turning to look at Santa.
"I swear, I had no idea-"
Santa sighed wearily, pulling out a vial of brown liquid from his pocket and feeding it to Comet and Blixen. "Of course you didn't, Emmett. You weren't listening when I told you the reindeers were allergic to cheese."
"Gross, Em," Jasper said, wrinkling his nose at his brother. "You fed Comet and Blixen cheese? That's disgusting."
"What kind?" Alice asked curiously.
"Alice!" everyone shouted. Alice held up her hands, shrugging sheepishly. Emmett laughed at her.
"Blue cheese."
A moment of silence, then:
"You're disgusting," Jasper said, revolted as they strode back in.
"What?" Emmett shouted after them. "What'd I say?"
A/N: Just a little one shot to get me through. A little early for Christmas, but I'll update it until the day itself. Happy holidays.
