Zach POV

"Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.

"Mommy Mommy is that Uncle Nick?!" Jacob asked

"No honey thats Santa!" Cammie said

"NOOO SANTA'S SCARY!"

"Oh Jacob santa's not scary he brings you presents!

Jacob still ran into my arms and I sat him on my lap and looked him in the eye.

"Jacob look at me" I said. He looked at me with a trembling bottom lip. Let me explain.

Flashback…. it was Jacob and Sam's first Christmas and we brought them to Bex and Grants house and we had a party. Grant being Grant suggested Joe dress up as Santa and pretend to be him. Joe came into the room and sat on the couch. He said, "HO HO HO who wants to sit on my lap first!" All the kids went crazy fighting over "Santa" Jacob, getting my skills flashed Joe his signature (and mine) smirk and immediately got to the front of the line. Joe sat him on his lap and said, "Well well well who do we have here?" That was a mistake because Jacob had had a nightmare the other night about a scary guy saying, "Well well well who do we have here?" so Jacob got all freaked out and screamed. Ever since then Jacob has been scared of Santa.

Flashback over….

Jacob was in hysterics now sobbing into my shoulder. I told Cammie I would go put him to bed but since Sam and him were twins when Jacob was crying so was Sam so she started crying too. We decided to call it a night and not read the rest of the book. Morgan was on her phone, Matthew was on his new gaming device, Ava was playing with a barbie doll, and Caroline and Madison were in a deep sleep with small smiles on their faces.

Bedtime was always hard at the Goode house, especially on Christmas eve, all the kids were so excited that they didn't want to sleep! Since Caroline and Madison were already asleep we left them there with Morgan on her phone, not a care what was going on. We took Matt, Ava, and the bawling twins upstairs. Matt brushed his teeth and went straight to bed. I helped Ava brush her teeth and then tucked her in and then the twins climbed into their bed (AN: They share a bed cuz it's cute :) ) after me and Cam brushed their teeth. I heard, "DADDYYYYY" and immediately knew it was Ava. I ran into her room hoping that nothing bad happened. I asked her what she needed and she said, "Teddy fell on the floor can you pick him up?" "Sure honey, but don't scream like that I thought something happened!" "OK goodnight Daddy and can Mommy come in?" "Yea I'll send her up. Just then I heard a slam of the door and ran downstairs. I saw the babies on the floor but no Morgan. I ran outside and saw her walking across the street to her best friend Beth's house. I screamed, "MORGAN RACHEL GOODE GET YOUR BUTT BACK INTO THIS HOUSE RIGHT NOW!" She turned around and jogged back to the front door "WHAT DAD!" "YOU CAN'T JUST LEAVE THE HOUSE LIKE THAT!" "I THINK I AM VERY CAPABLE OF WALKING ACROSS THE STREET TO MY BEST FRIENDS CHRISTMAS PARTY!" That's when she noticed she let the secret slip she was going to a party. I then noticed what she was wearing, a VERY short, VERY low cut, strapless red dress with VERY high silver high heels. "AND WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE WEARING!" "Beth gave it to me and bye I'm going to be late." she said and walked off. I ran back inside and picked up our two youngest children. I put them both to sleep in their rooms and went to Cam saying, "What are we going to do with her?" Gallagher Girl immediately knew I was talking about Morgan. "Well she learned from Mace and Bex so I guess talk to them." She said and fell off into a blissful sleep. I too was taken into unconsciousness soon after.
