I should not go through with last-minute ideas.
Why do I do this to myself?
So up until about an hour ago, this was just an idea. Taking what I would consider Christmas movie cliches and turning them into drabbles. Now I have 25 ideas and the one for tomorrow is ready... This is basically one story split into 25 parts... Not that I need that sort of pressure put on myself.
And just before anyone gets the wrong idea, I don't actually like Christmas films. Well, not the bad ones anyway.
Day One - Boy meets Girl
With the countdown to Christmas and the end of term on, Eddie was a little confused as to why Nigel wanted a meeting with him. Part of him hoped that it was to offer him the job of permanent head but Eddie knew that there was more involved than just to start to clear the mess that Jack had left.
Eddie was more confused about the other voice that was talking to Nigel.
"Ah, Eddie. This is Rachel Mason."
He smiled at her before he shook her hand, trying to ignore the spark of electricity that shot through him at her touch.
