"Now this," Spinner said, walking with Janes hand in his and his duffle bag in the other, "Is amazing."
They were exciting the airport of LA, and the whole airport had entertainers and ofcourse that meant carolers for Christmas, and decoration all over. A huge Christmas tree by the exit doors. The whole group went out the doors and Emma pulled her white cotton winter coat on as she shivered when the wind outside blew heavily around them.
"I thought it was suppose to be warm here!" she called over the wind then looked up and down the road for a taxi.
Liberty shook her head knowingly, "Hollywood gets winter too, sometimes it even snows."
"Like once if unlucky enough." said Toby with a snort and explained to Emma, "Their winter here is just heavy wind and less heat."
Jane raised her hand next to Spinner as a taxi rolled up and it stopped, "Got one!" she happily declared with a sly grin and her and Spinner crawled into the back.
They all put their bags into the back trunk, with the help of the taxi driver..then they were off to Manny and Jays.
"I wonder what our little star lives in." Liberty joked about Manny.
When they pulled up to the apartment building Manny lived at, the taxi came to a hault with all their heads peaking out the window.
Toby looked so confused, looking back at everyone from the front seat, "I thought she was some millionaire star now after the movie with Kevin Smith."
"Just cause you're a star Toby, doesn't mean you can't live in a cozy little place." Emma declared and they all started opening the doors, "I think its cute."
"Are we gonna fit?" muttered Spinner to Jane who tried not to smirk.
It wasn't a ghetto nor run down apartment. Nothing like that. They just expected a house or something more..
"Manny said there was room for all of us . It'll be fine!" Liberty declared, leading them to the front doors of the apartment and looked for Manny's number to buzz.
"Well this is Manny we're talking about," Toby said, glancing at Emma, "The girl who shared one little basement with you for years."
Emma rolled her eyes, "Get over it Tobes. Even if it's not big enough, it'll be like a big sleepover."
buuuuuzzzzzzz.
It took a few minutes, and Emma hopped a little to the cold weather. Come on! Answer already!
"Yeah?" came a deep male voice. Had to be Jay.
Ofcourse, Spinner recognized it first and yelled happily into the speaker, "buddddyyyyyyyy!"
Jay seemed to chuckle, and then there was another buzz before he told them, "Come on up."
They all grabbed their bags and went in, walking to the large elevator to take it up to the top floor. Manny had a suite. Although it was only December 22nd , when the gang got closer to apartment they could hear Jingle Bells blasting and the smell of something cooking. Emma was the one to knock and the door whipped open.
Bubbly as always and cute as a botton, Manny stood there squealing high pitch and grabbed Emma first, practically strangling her, "OH MY GOD YOU'RE HERE!"
They all laughed and some started going around to put the heavy bags down. Jay came in from the kitchen and chuckled, holding a beer and sipped it. Spinner nodded at him and greet-ment and they slapped their hand into the others.
"Nice to you see you man." Spin said, "hows Hollywood life treatin ya?"
Jay had left just this year to go be with Manny. They were seriously engaged now and the wedding would be the next summer. He shrugged his shoulder with a smirk, "It's alright. But long as I got my woman, I'm good." he joked.
Over by Manny, Emma had to stiff a breathless laugh out, "Manny I can't breath." she finally inhaled when Manny let go and blushed.
"Sorry Em," she gushed, looking at the blonde like she was some treasure, "I feel like it's been TOO long." she really missed home, and Emma, and even Snakes cooking. It was hard living so far away, even if she was living the dream.
"I missed you too." teased Em, smiling adoringly back at her best friend. Manny was practically her sister, this move was rough on her too, specially with not being able to talk to someone about the Divorce... She usually told Manny EVERYTHING.
"Nice place." Toby had to admit and yelled over the music. Big apartment, spacious. Big couches set up against the white cream walls and huge 70 inch TV over a fireplace that was lit up and the Christmas tree was standing in the corner. It was a beautiful white one but not decorated yet, it was tradition for Manny and Emma to do that together. Then, there was the dining room right before the kitchen, and it had a long classy black dining table for at least 8 people sit at.
Jay walked to the stereo and turned it down, taunting his fiance, "Mannys been blasting holiday music since god damn November." he gave her a playful glare as she gave him one and giggled. She closed the door behind her and Emma looked around for the bathroom while beside her.
"Where's the washroom?" Emma asked as she was taking off her coat. She wore her skinny blue jeans and a nice white sleeve fitted top. One side hung off her shoulders and she tossed her long blonde her to that side. It was hot in here now, with the fireplace on.
Manny opened her mouth, and seemed to be struggling with her words, looking towards the other end of the apartment with a weird look in her eyes. Emma eyed her strangely but laughed it off when Jay pointed down the hall past the kitchen, "Through there, GP." he gave her a wink and looked to be trying not to smile.
Emma gave him a wierd look too with a slight laugh but nodded. What was with them? Always the funky weird couple...cute though, she had to admit. Manny was downright in love with Jay Hogart and at least she had seriously changed the little wise guy slash player into the good guy he was now.. and she knew Jay loved Manny just as much too with everything he's done for her.
"BUT!" Manny yelled and shut up when Emma turned just as someone walked out from the kitchen and bumped into her. WHAT the heck was Manny's problem!?
Emma turned her head back, about to apologise to whoever it was she bumped into. She didn't know anyone else was here. She then froze in her spot and her mouth hung as Sean Cameron looked back at her with a stunned look himself.
Sean..freakin..Cameron.
...Fa la la la la la la la!
Deck the halls with boughs of holly, Fa la la la la la la la!
'Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la la la la!
Don we now our gay apparel, Fa la la la la la la la!
Troll the ancient Yuletide carol, Fa la la la la la la la!
