"Yeah, I wanted to spend Christmas with my family. I haven't seen them since I came out to Paradigm. It's weird, cause we used to always eat dinner together and have family night. And my whole world has just shifted since coming here. I really kind of miss it."

"So you're excited?" she asked, smiling softly. She could understand missing that... Even though she didn't have much in comparison, she still missed her own family.

If she stayed here through the spring, she'd even miss her father's birthday. It would be the first one.

"I really am. I still need to pick out some presents for them. I'm thinking another set of ugly sweaters. Kind of a tradition, though I debated on trying something new to celebrate this new chapter. I am still up in the air though."

"Why not both?"

She was still smiling, warming her hands again on the mug. One hand been wrapped around Eric's arm, and thus, out in the cold.

"I mean, get them the old tradition to remind them that you're still their little Eric, no matter what, but get them something new to remind them that things are changing and it is okay."

She giggled slightly and nodded, glad that she could be of some help.

"Any time."

"Working," she said, sounding... cheerful about the fact. It would be her first holiday season away from her family, but she didn't seem to mind. She genuinely seemed excited at the prospect.

"I'm going to the party that will be here Christmas Eve, but I'll be around Jack's office most of the day on Christmas Day. I plan to have everything completely in order by the time he gets back."

"Oh? That's a bummer that he is making you work though."

Eric frowned.

"He's not."

She was still smiling, completely not bothered.

"Jack's a really nice guy. He is constantly trying to tell me not to work too late. But I enjoy it, and it'll be nice to just play some holiday music and dance around. Get some stuff done."

"You dance when you work?"

He'd raise an eyebrow at that.

"Mhmm~"

She hid a giggle behind one hand.

"It makes it more... fun."

She cocked a brow, tilting her head to one side.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

She chuckled with a nonchalant shrug.

"Okay."

She placed her hot chocolate on the bench beside her and stood, turning around to try and grab at his hands.

"Come on, then," she said with a wide smile.

He'd let her grab one hand as he set down his hot cocoa, his other hand moving to the side, the air ripping in front of his finger tips as he pulled out a Boombox playing some music for them to dance to!

"Lets do this."

She actually seemed fairly graceful as she danced to the music, if a bit repetitive in her movements. It wasn't something she was incredibly talented in, but she knew her body and knew how it moved.

And she seemed to genuinely have fun with it. That always helped.

Eric was an alright dancer. Not amazing, but there was no risk of stepping on her feet at least! But it was fun, and he was all about that.

Evie kept his hand in her own as they danced, giving it a gentle squeeze and laughing. So what if they looked like dorks, dancing in the middle of the snow?

He'd squeeze her hand and place his other on her hip as they danced.
