Hello again!! Long time no see eh? Lol.
Ok well I've had exams so have mercy….
Any way I was sitting in my living room last night and my mom was decorating our Christmas tree… in the middle of the floor, naturally. She moves it to the middle of the floor to decorate it then somehow drags it into place once finished (she has to decorate the back of the tree because "The people outside can see the back") … yeah.
And my mom gets VERY possessive over the decorations; me and my sister aren't allowed to touch the tree. I tried to help her with it last night and I thought I had broke the tree or something with the yell my mom let out…. I'd put a bauble on in the wrong place and she went mad.
So I left her to it, and joined in with my dad who was trying to be as annoying as possible by using baubles to make himself look like a fly with weird eyes and every so often pulling the tree or knocking it so most of the stuff fell off.
Once my mom had realized that everything was all exactly the same distance apart she dragged it into place then let out another yell; she'd forgotten to put the crackers on and spent another hour putting 6 crackers on.
My Christmas is SO FUN!! Lol
And I got so inspired from watching my mom turn into a spoilt bauble thief that I wrote this!!
THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR REVIEWING LOVE YOU ALL!!!
.X. FLINGS OUT CRACKERS AND BAUBLES .X.
Disclaimer:--- I don't own anything…. PotC has its own lucky owners and Christmas is owned by the lap land elves… and Santa of course. I don't even own the bauble!! It's my moms!!
Who Moved The Bauble?!
.x. Rk's PoV .x.
"Where's that cracker gone?"
"Which one?"
"The one that's missing!!"
"Does it matter?"
"YES! ITS MY CRACKER!!"
"You've got that bauble!"
"I don't want a bauble…. I want that one!"
"That one's Jack's!"
"…Why does he get the best one?!"
"'Cause he grabbed it first!"
"Only 'cause he pushed me! So it was mine first!!"
"FINE! Jack, swap your bauble with Jess'"
"No! It's mine!!"
"You pushed me it was mine!!"
"STOP BEING SPOILT BRATS!…. I want it!"
"NO! IT'S MINE!!!"
"LOOSE JACK!!!"
"NO!!!"
Jess and Jack pulled and tugged at the bauble, Rach snatched the bauble off Jess and Jack
"STOP!! Ok Jess, put yours on the tree…"
Jess walked up to the tall tree and went to put her bauble onto the trip, Rach sighed
"Not there… NO! It needs to be symmetrical! NO! GIVE IT!!"
Rach yanked the decoration off Jess and put it on the tree carefully. I shook my head.
"Oh my God! It's a flipping bauble!!"
"It's NOT just a bauble! ONE bauble could ruin the WHOLE tree!! If the bauble's wrong, then the tinsel will be caggy! And the tree will look ugly and the ROOM WILL LOOK A MESS!!!" (A:N: Yeah my mom gave me that little phrase)
She took a deep breath. Will looked and his decoration then passed it to Jack
"You can put mine on"
"Nah, yer ok lad"
I snatched both Will's cracker and Jack's bauble. (A:N: Did anyone else think that sounded rude?)
"I'll put them on!"
I walked over to the tree
"Er… ok… I'll put the cracker…. Here"
"Ahem"
"Ok then…. Here?"
"AHEM!"
"FINE!! Do it yourself!!!"
I passed the decorations to Rach.
……………………
"There!…. DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH!!"
Rach slapped Will's hand away
"…Ow… Rach"
"I'm going to get you guys some Eggnog for doing a great job of staying out of my way!…. Don't touch the tree"
Rach went up the basement steps. I waited until the door had shut and I picked up a spare bauble
"Jess, go long!"
Jess backed away
"RK! JESS! Be careful! THE TREE!!"
"Chill Will… you guard the tree then if you're that worried"
I threw the bauble to Jess, who caught it
"'Er luv!"
Jess threw it to Jack, who chucked it back to me. I ran around
"Who will I throw it to next, no one knows!!"
I threw it up in the air
"I GOT IT!"
"ME TOO!!"
Jess and Jack ran towards each other
"MOVE!!!"
.X.BUMP!.X.
Jess and Jack lay tangled on the floor… Jess held up her hand
"Wow! I caught it!!"
.x.Clink!.x.
Will gasped, Jess waved her hand about
"What?… I caught it! Didn't you see? It was SO cool!!!"
"The… the… the TREE!!"
I looked at the tree
"What about it?"
"The… the bauble!!"
Will pointed to a bauble that was on the floor next to the tree
"It fell off!!"
Jess and Jack stood up
"Uh-Oh"
I picked up the bauble
"Its ok, I'll just put it back on… er… Where did it go?"
Jess, Jack and Will shrugged
"Will! You were supposed to watch the tree!"
"Well if you lot hadn't been jumping and falling over I wouldn't have had to watch it in the first place!!…. Rach is going to notice… then she'll have a fit!"
He rubbed the red mark on his hand. I walked up to the tree
"Er… I don't know where it goes!"
I placed it on a random spine
"That looks ok…"
"No it doesn't! It's not symmetrical!"
I moved it across
"Nah luv… Too close to that cracker!"
"Gods sake!"
I moved it up
"NO! TOO HIGH!!"
"OH FORGET IT!!!"
I went to throw the bloody thing
"NO! NO!"
"DON'T RK!!"
"RACH IS COMING!!!!!
We rushed round grabbing the bauble and knocking the tree
"Stop! Loose it!"
Jess jumped up and down
"SHE'S COMING!!"
She knocked the tinsel
"JESS!!"
I shoved the bauble on and we stood still as Rach came down the stairs with a tray of mugs. She stopped on the bottom step and looked and each of us
"What have you done?"
"Nothing!"
She looked around the room and then studied the tree carefully. She looked back to us
"Did you touch the tree?"
I shook my head
"Will?"
"No"
"Jack?"
"Nuh-Uh"
She looked to Jess who was suddenly interested in the hands
"Jess?"
She looked up
"What?"
"Did you move the bauble?"
"…No"
"Well who moved the bauble then?"
"…I don't know"
"Fine then, I'll just take this tray of warm Eggnog and marshmallows back upstairs then. Shall I?"
"IT WAS RK!!! SHE THREW A BAUBLE, THEN I FELL OVER! AND THERE WAS A CLINK AND IT WAS ON THE FLOOR!!! THEN I WAS JUMPING AND… AND ….AND I WANT EGGNOG!!!"
Rach passed a mug and the bowl of marshmallows to Jess
"Thank you Jess"
I glared Jess. She just smiled with a mouth full of marshmallows. Rach walked over to the tree.
"You know I don't really care that much, it's only one bauble that fell off… and crooked tinsel. But I know where it goes!"
She picked off the bauble
"You know I'd rather you'd just tell me that it had fell off. I mean I would have put it back on right"
She put the bauble on the right place
I mean we need more truth here guys…"
She straightened the tinsel. Then tilted her head and moved it again
"I mean it's not like you ruined…"
The tree fell over…
"…THE WHOLE FLIPPING TREE!!!"
Jess pointed to Rach with a marshmallow
"YOU DID THAT THEN!!! I WAS ALL THE WAY OVER HERE!!! I DIDN'T TOUCH IT!!!!"
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Yeah…. Typical Christmas…. I mean its not Christmas without the tree falling over is it?
No, the tree didn't fall over in my house… yet there's still time though. BUT the top spine where you put the fairy on was WAY too long to fit our fairy on… so instead of cutting it my mom just bent it over and then stuck the fairy on top… Almost had a heart attack when a couple of hours later the spine sprung back up and catapulted the fairy at the side of my head.
REVIEW…..
LUV YA!!!
