A/N: Merry Merry Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. And yay my

first Stephy/Jericho fic and a Christmas Smoochy at that. Drabble.

Ah yes another Merry Christmas with the Clan McMahon. As usual

everything was unusual. Stephanie rolled her eyes and wondered why

she had bothered to come home to the most dysfunctional family in

America. The youngest McMahon didn't know which head Shane had been

thinking from when he invited that bitch Dawn Marie over for dinner.

Currently the brunette was handing out her specially personalized

Christmas cards. Honestly that was more of Dawn Marie than Stephanie

ever wanted to see.

Dawn Marie was a slight improvement over her father's choice of

dinner guest. Sable. The bastard brought Sable. Linda greeted the

blonde like any other guest and didn't bat an eyelash. Stephanie

wanted to deck the Super Skank on sight but no today was Christmas

and she would just have to fake the calm dignity that her mom had

going on in spades.

So now they all sat at a tense dinner table glaring death at one

another. Vince was upset that Shane had the gall to bring his former

assistant to dinner. Sable kept smirking in Linda's direction. If

Linda's looks could kill Vince, Sable, and Dawn Marie would all be

six feet under. Dawn Marie was still sore at the hell Stephanie put

her through during that whole Torrie thing. Shane couldn't believe

Vince had the audacity to bring his whore to a family event.

And Stephanie? Well Stephanie was silently plotting a way to get

even with her boyfriend. He was the one subjecting her to this

yuletide hell. She caught his eye and threw him one of her patented

sneers.

Noticing Stephanie's displeasure Chris Jericho winked back at her

before gleefully returning to his meal. Hey this holiday was all

about family. It was either an embarrassing traumatic experience

with his family or one with hers. Jericho couldn't help it if his

girlfriend was a gambling woman. She lost that coin toss fair and

square.
