#Chapter120
Christmas chaos, part two
Tori
After the cookie debacle, I learned not to make cookies with Elias and Deacon. Ordinary people frost and decorate cookies. The Harper boys wear frosting.
Dad brought up the tree from the basement. Gabe grabbed the plastic totes of ornaments. Mom and I decorated the tree. I hung a bulb as someone knocked at the door.
/"Answer the door,/" I told Gabe as I hung an ornament.
/"You answer the door./"
We argued.
/"I’ll answer the door since you’re both busy,/" Dad said.
We shrugged. Dad answered the door as Elias came inside and removed his coat.
/"Come on in./"
/"Don’t mind if I do./"
Dad rolled his eyes as I giggled. Elias walked over and kissed me.
/"Did you come over to help me decorate?/"
/"No./"
I gave Elias a strange look. He rolled his eyes.
/"Of course, I came to help you. What kind of boyfriend would I be if I didn’t help?/"
