Another Christmas Excerpt

"There's gotta be someone who's not seeing Bare for the Christmas movie" Sarah said desperately.
Her grandfather only shrugged "No, there really isn't."
Sarah sighed and turned "Grandma, can we help you cook?"
Her grandmother laughed "Sorry doll-face, I'm seeing the movie with everyone else."
"Gah!" When everyone had turned away Sarah picked up a fork and mimed stabbing herself with it.
"Aw." I laughed. "My Christmas wish almost came true."
Sarah shot me a dirty look.
"What's the big deal. Why won't you see it?" Rochelle asked.
Sarah rolled her eyes "It would be awkward"
"Yeah" I nodded in agreement "very."
About a half hour later every one had gone downstairs, after the consensus was that Sarah and I would see some stupid G rated movie.
"So we'll just sit in the back?" I confirmed
"Yep."
"It's still going to awkward. Seeing you have sex with my ex is something I'll never get used to" I pointed out.
"I know. But this is our chance to nitpick." She said with a smile. "We couldn't get away with it at the screening"
I laughed "Can I throw popcorn at the screen?"
She smiled "Not the face!"
