Chapter 21
CHRISTMAS GROUP CHAT
Madison
Dying over here because Willow’s teacher sent home a Christmas project to “make your own snow globe” today. The kids don’t have to do it, but I mean, what kid isn’t going to want to do something fun like this?? It has to be finished by TOMORROW!
Chelsea
Gunnar just asked why you can't just shake up a bottle of water and call it done
Velvet
You got snow globes? Zeke’s teacher wants us to make a "sustainable Christmas village" using only recycled materials. And same… TONIGHT.
Nash
The fuck is a sustainable Christmas village?
Scarlett
It's like a regular Christmas village, Nash, but with more guilt and hot glue.
Madison
J just offered to help. Should I be worried?
Harlow
Scott tried to help with last year's project. We still have glitter in places glitter should never be.
Velvet
Anyone know where to buy fake snow at 7:30 at night?
Sophia
Spotlight's open late for Christmas hours this week.
Madison
Have you SEEN Spotlight two weeks before Christmas? I'd rather face a rival MC.
Nash
I'll go.
Velvet
NO.
Scarlett
Yes! Send Nash to Spotlight! I need this entertainment in my life.
Nash
How fuckin' hard can it be to buy fake snow?
J
I'll come with you, brother.
Madison
Why do I feel like this is going to end badly?
Scarlett
Two bikers loose in Spotlight. This is better than Netflix.
Velvet
Baby, remember that time you tried to buy ribbon and came home with fishing line?
Nash
That shit looked the same in the fuckin' package.
Half an hour later…
Madison
J just texted saying they can't find the craft section
Chelsea
It's literally half the store
Nash
Found the snow. There’s a few different options.
Madison
DO NOT get any glitter. I repeat: NO GLITTER.
J
Too late.
Velvet
Oh god.
Chelsea
Gunnar just offered to get the pressure washer ready for tomorrow's cleanup
Madison
J says they're getting "supplies" for future projects too. Something about being prepared, which can we just say, he’s never shown any interest in before.
Carla
How do they know what craft supplies you’d even need for future projects? Seriously, men have no clue on this kind of stuff.
Madison
Agreed. ABORT MISSION.
Harlow
Remember the Father's Day incident? This is worse.
Velvet
Nash just sent me a photo of his shopping trolley.
Echo
Why does he have that much pipe cleaner?
Scarlett
Clearly he's branching out from swanning around to arts and crafts.
Nash
Madison
They've been gone an hour. Should we send search and rescue?
Nash
These craft store bitches are intense. Some woman just fought me for the last bag of fuckin’ metallic pom poms.
J
She won.
Scarlett
Two big bad bikers taken down by a crafting mom. This is going in the club history books. #CraftingWithNash
Madison
J just texted me. They're in the checkout line. Nash is arguing about pipe cleaner prices.
Scarlett
Of course he is. Nothing says tough biker like haggling over craft supplies.
Harlow
Those prices are highway robbery though.
Nash
$10 for bits of wire with fuzz? That's a fuckin’ scam.
Chelsea
Welcome to the world of school projects, boys
Velvet
Did you at least get the snow?
Nash
Got three types. Wasn't risking getting the wrong one.
Madison
My hero
Scarlett
I hear Spotlight is looking for a new security team. You've found your calling, Nash. #CraftStoreBouncer I’m pretty sure they’d even let you bedazzle your uniform.
Nash
