Chapter 20

CHRISTMAS DAY! (FINALLY LOL :D)

Ted woke up at eight in the morning his eyes wide open as he registered that it was Christmas morning and he would be ripping apart wrapping paper within minutes.

Ted jumped out of his covers and ran over to where his brother Collin was sleeping with his arm resting on a pillow just to emphasize how much it hurts. Ted smiled as he remembered Collin's reasons of why he was being so wimpy.

"Collin!" Ted whined as he tugged on Collin's pyjamas. Collin however was stubborn as ever and kept his eyes firmly shut until he felt Ted jump on top of him and slowly drawing his fingers all the way until he reached the cast upon Collin's arm.

Collin sprang up and grabbed Ted by the waist and began tickling him. "Cheeky monkey, trying to wake me up!" Collin grumbled and pulled Ted up by his waist so that he was in a fireman's lift. "C'mon then, let's go wake the evil man in the next room." Collin said darkly with a hint of amusement in his voice. "Oh no! Not the snoring monster!" Ted replied back faking a cry as Collin carried him to Dan's.

The boys were in tears of laughter by the time they had reached Dan's bedroom and that alone had woken the sleeping man who wasn't at all looking forward to being waken up at eight when he could lie in till at least ten.

"Danny! Santa's been and all your doing is staying in bed!" Ted moaned as he ran up to Dan's double bed and began singing Christmas carols at the top of his lungs. "Jingle Bells, wake up Dan, Jingle Bells, wake up Dan!" Ted chorused as he continued to wake Dan up even more.

Within ten minutes of Ted's edited version of Jingle Bells Dan found himself, camera in hand taking both his son and step-son down the stairs, it was ironic really, he was thinking the same thoughts of Gary Reeves, the father of Collin but he had never seen it from his point of view.

Ted ran in and grabbed the first present with 'Ted' written upon it while Collin went over to where his presents were which were labelled as 'Cole'.

The presents went like this:

Ted got a new Nintendo Wii that he screamed about as soon as he had seen 'Wii' appear after tearing the paper apart, Scooby-doo and the spooky swamp for wii, Mario kart Wii, chocolates and an iTunes gift voucher .

Collin had got a new laptop for his work at CHERUB, fifa 11 for Nintendo wii, chocolates, new books, cloth vouchers and iTunes voucher.

Ted smiled all day as he played with Collin on the wii, downloading music onto his iPod, listening to music playing with Josh and Jake and he enjoyed his first ever Christmas Dinner.

Things seemed to be going the right way for Ted, especially since Zara had decided to let Ted back into CHERUB.

The End... For Now
