Our pain will shine our light to, those who understand

"Oh my god my daughter gone, she's been taken, dead in a ditch somewhere" CC shouted as he paced beside the front door. Cassara was meant to be home by four pm and it was now 5.30 pm. "Dad calm down she's probably just out with Austin." Veronicka spoke as she chomped on a bunch of grapes. "You know your daughters' right dude, she'll be fine, probably just lost track of time." Jake piped up as he stole one of Nicky's grapes to which she sent him a playful glare. "Where is she? i swear if that boy.." but before he could finish a car horn was heard from outside then Cassara's voice, "See ya Aus Merry Christmas." Stumbling into the warm home, the smell of cinnamon and general Christmas danced through the air as fairy lights draped from the walls, her intake was soon shattered.
"Did you intend in giving me a heart attack little miss?" CC boomed as he stode across the room a firm parent look upon his tanned face however taking a sigh of relief inside.
"Ummm no?" Cassara questioned not sure of her answer.
"What do you mean no? you where mean't to be home at four and it now five thirty did Austin keep you out later hmmm?"
"What? no no no no we where just out shopping for gifts," Lifting up her various bags showing them for proof Cassara continued, "then we found a ice rink and got carried away i'm sorry."
"Carried away. what do you mean carried away. where you making out in the back-seat!" "No!" this made Cassara turn 50 shades of red despite it not being true.
"Who's making out in the back-seat?" Ashley questioned as he stumbled into the scene a pint of beer in his hand. "No one Ash. Now is this interrogation over i need to wrap your gifts then bake my famous Christmas cookies." Cassara asked.
"Ooooh can i help" Dad squeaked his once parent demanding voice gone and his inner child sneaking through. "Me two i wanna lick the spoon!" Jake cried,
"No i do!"
"i do" a chorus of 'do's' came throughout the humble home making Cassara chuckle as she sped up stairs eager to get the gifts away from prying eyes.

"Mission completed!" Cassara whispered to herself as she wiped a bead of sweat from her forehead. Jumping up from her spot on the floor she scooped up the various wrapping paper and pair of scissors throwing then in her cupboard to be dealt with later, switching off her cheesy Christmas music she sauntered to her closet to where she quickly changed into an old sleeping with sirens tank top and some all time low denim shorts since the baking with the guys and Nicky in the kitchen will probably end up looking like a war zone. Throwing on a red apron Cass ran to the hall way, leaning over the white banister screeching like a banshee "Baking time Bitches!!" Pressing play cheesy Christmas music blasted through the house as everyone skipped down the stairs and into the gigantic kitchen. Getting everyone surrounded around the island Cassara began to speak up, "Okay operation Christmas is finally under way, Jake and Jinxx i want you two to go set up the god dam tree i have been telling you since December first so go do it now but do not decorate it yet." Nodding there heads the two ran off towards the living room. "Okay Ashley i want you to hang up the stockings then help Jake and Jinxx, before you ask i will call you and the two idgits through so you can lick the spoon."
"okay sergeant!" Chuckling a bit Ash soon set off leaving Cas, Nicky, Andy and CC in the kitchen.

After a while everyone was recruited back into the war zone, flour, butter and cracked eggs scatter the floor while cookie mixture slips down the walls. How? you wonder well here's a brief explanation. Andy can not for the love of god mix a mixture in a bowl without it splattering everywhere, Veronicka couldn't crack an egg and ended up killing 12 eggs and Dad could not go 10 seconds without trying to eat or spill something but after 5 attempts the cookies where in the oven, cooking away. Time to decorate the tree. Gathering the army Jake and Jinxx led the family through, admiring their tree skills in the process. The leafy wonderland touched the ceiling while boxes of ornaments there in bundles along the floor eager to make a home in the bushy tree. Clapping her hands together Veronicka ran forward clutching a bvb home made bauble hanging it on the tree. As if like clockwork everyone else began decorating the tree, Jinxx and Andy placing on the fairy lights while Dad lifted Bambi and Nicky high into the air where they placed baubles near the top of the tree. It took an hour and a half but that period of time was spent as a family, decorating the tree for there first Christmas together as one. Cracking a remark of how Cassara should be on the top of the tree since her nickname from Andy was angel the group lifted the two girls into the air them both clutching a shining star to which they placed on the top of the tree. Once back on their own two feet the family stepped back admiring their work smiles all around. The presents now snugly fit under everything was perfect. Just as it should be.
