WHO: Michael and Morag WHERE: Morag's house WHAT: Just some time together! Maybe it will keep them both sane and provoid some happiness. WHEN: December 27th, sometime in the later afternoon. RATING: PG? STATUS: In progress
Morag's Christmas, like many others, had been different this year. It was the first time a family member had been missing for the holiday, and it hadn't gone unnoticed. A letter was no consolation for an absent sister. She had been spending a lot of time at Cecily's, simply because she enjoyed being there more than being at home. However, she could tell her parents were getting annoyed with it, and had returned for a few days. She thought it would be best to avoid another argument

Michael wished that he knew more about what was going on with Morag while they were apart. This had been different than just being separated by a few walls in their own dormitories. Half the time he felt like a terrible boyfriend, and for the rest of the time he knew he would get too annoying if he was constantly owling Morag and waiting eagerly outside for some sort of reply. Even if he did like to know what was going on, he wasn't quite mad enough to let himself do such a thing

"I am good," she answered, stepping aside to let him in. "Dad is around somewhere. I think he is busy," she said. She suspected he was just ignoring what was going on at his doorway, but he had likely paused in whatever he was doing to make sure it wasn't anything dangerous. He didn't show up, though, which was something he was more likely to do when Morag's mother wasn't home. Her parents were both less strict when apart, and generally liked to spend that time alone

Michael couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief as Morag said she was good. He figured that if anything was terribly wrong, terribly life-threatening, she would have said so right away. If there was anything else wrong, anything small, she could always mention it later once he wasn't standing outside the house, still looking as though he were about to turn around and run away back home. Quite frankly, he didn't want to go home anytime soon, so he instead offered Morag another smile
