Did Doc have more to say? It lingered between them despite his having dismissed Zero. Fine by him, to which he stood and left the office.
Zero found Loretta in the kitchen, she was covered in frosting and smiling despite the mess. He leaned against the door jamb, watching.
Ginger bread houses, candy, sweet things, they made her smile brighter than the sun. He took note of that. He smiled already forgetting the discussion he'd had with Doc. After a moment he walked in and leaned close over Loretta, reached across for a gum drop from the roof of the ginger bread house and popped it into his mouth.
"Look who's having fun." He said, then he glanced at her and his smile deepened. Her joy infectious he couldn't help bask in it. In fact whatever made her smile he'd love nothing more but to be apart of.
If Doc promised they'd be safe here. Good. Zero wanted to ensure that as well. She'd have a Christmas she'd never forget, and Noe he was looking forward to it too.
