Gusmas 2011: The Worst Holiday Season Ever VII+VIII Title: The Worst Holiday Season Ever Setting: post-513 with Justin still in New York Summary: It's not like Brian hates the Holiday season. He loathes it. And on Thanksgiving, Justin gives him one more reason to. Author's Note This starts on a Thanksgiving and follows all 37 prompts in order. Sometimes it's one prompt!day per fic!day, sometimes I use more than one prompt to tell a day in the fic. Does that make sense? I hope it does when you read it.
Prompts: # December 1 - You are like a hurricane # December 2 - Ice
Hurricane Taylor
“Jesus Christ, what happened in here?”
Justin's head snaps up as Ella, his roommate, returns from her shift at a nearby coffee shop.
“Sorry. I got a little carried away.” He smiles apologetically, eying the clutter of paint tubs and brushes he has scattered over their living room floor next to the small canvas he has been working on. He himself is covered from head to toe in paint as well.
“Carried away? It looks like hurricane Taylor went through here.” She slumps down on the sofa, tossing away her green apron. “Wanna talk about it?”
Rocky Road
“You should have seen his face. He was totally pissed.” Justin digs into the tub of Rocky Road and starts munching away on the frozen consolation.
“Understandably so. I mean... he thinks you're not going to be home for Christmas.”
“I know,” Justin replies around a mini-marshmallow.
“When actually I should be the one being pissed since you're moving out on Christmas,” Ella continues unperturbed.
Justin scowls at her. “You really are a true friend, Ella.”
“Incorrect. I am the best.” She reaches for the tub of ice cream. “Now give me that.”
