Christmas Snippets 2
(Since this is intended as a 'fun-fic', I
have ignored much of season 7 - but there are some spoilers)
-------------------
"I need some volunteers to hang decorations," said
Kerry. "Kovac, Malucci, with me now."
"But it's my break," moaned Dave.
"Not anymore," said Kerry, as they followed her out to
admit.
A few minutes later.
"You'll need to climb a little higher," said Haleh to
Luka, as he perched on top of the stepladder with a paper chain
in his hand.
"How does this look?" asked Luka, holding the chain in
place.
Haleh was looking at Luka's butt. "That looks mighty fine,
honey. Mighty fine indeed."
Kerry was handing decorations to Dave, to put on the Christmas
tree. Stretching to reach the top branches put even more of a
strain on his scrub top and jeans.
"I see someone gave herself an early Christmas present,"
said Randi to Yosh, as they watched Kerry watching Dave.
"Mmm," said Yosh.
-----------------------
"Peter, there are two things you should remember when
holding mistletoe up to kiss someone under," said Cleo, with
a pained expression on her face.
"Firstly, don't use the piece that was on the admit desk and
being used as a repository for Randi's gum. And secondly, don't
drop it on my hair."
"I'm really sorry Cleo," said Peter, with a scalpel in
his hand. "Now if you'll just hold still, we'll soon have it
off."
There was a snicking sound and Peter said, "Oops."
-----------------------
Jing-Mei watched was Malik crouched under the Christmas tree
checking the labels on the 'secret Santa' gifts.
"What's he doing?" asked Yosh.
"Looking for his gift," she replied.
"He doesn't seem to be having much luck."
"I know," said Jing-Mei with a smug grin, as she held
up a present clearly marked 'Malik'. "He never wants to wait
until we're all ready; so I'm not going to put this out until
just before it's time. Do him good to have to wait."
-----------------------
"I'm not coming out," said Dave from inside the toilet
cubicle.
"Oh come on, Dave," said Carter. "You can't let
all the kiddies down."
"What's the matter?" asked Luka, joining Carter outside
the door.
"Dave 'volunteered' to give out the Christmas presents on
the Paedes ward, and now he's chickening out."
"We'll see about that," said Luka, "Dave," he
called, "Come out now or I...I will call Dr Weaver."
"Okay, okay, I'm coming out," said Dave, "But you
guys had better not laugh."
"Why would we laugh?" Luka asked Carter.
Carter tried to keep a straight face. "Because they were all
out of Santa costumes so we had to go with the next best
alternative."
Luka's jaw dropped as Dave came out of the cubicle wearing a
fairy godmother costume.
"Not one word," he said. "<Not> <one>
<word>."
-----------------------
"Umm, Dr Greene?" said Abby.
"What is it now?" asked Mark, as he tried to mould a
sheet of wrapping paper around a screwdriver set. Elizabeth was
going to love this, he though to himself. Hey, what woman didn't
want her own set of DIY tools? He ran his hand gently over the
box. Man, she was really going to be pleased when she opened her
present.
Abby watched as Mark gazed adoringly at the package.
"Uh, never mind," she said, backing away quietly.
-------------------
"No Dave," said Kerry wearily, "You cannot use the
sternal saw to trim the extra branches off the Christmas tree.
Find something else."
"Okay Chief," said Dave cheerfully. He walked away and
returned a few minutes later with a fire axe.
"Don't even think about it," said Kerry, not looking up.
