[M4F] - It's not like The Santa Clause (1994), except it kind of is.
DATE: DECEMBER 24 TIME: AROUND 10PM WEATHER: COLD, SNOWY
It's a pretty standard Christmas Eve, with one exception: I'm celebrating the holidays alone. My folks live on the opposite side of the country, I had to work too close to the holidays to be able to fly out, and pretty much all my friends are celebrating with THEIR families. God, this sucks. The only advantage is that I have an actual house, with a chimney and everything. I've even put out cookies and milk for Santa, like when I was a kid. I'll probably wake up in the night and go down to eat them. At least, that was my PLAN...
Because I woke up like I expected, came downstairs, and found a man eating the food I'd setup.
I had locked the doors. I felt no draft. Somehow, this guy got in. And naturally, I didn't think he was jolly old St. Nick, so I did what any reasonable person would do in this situation: take the nearest long, heavy blunt object (in my case, the fire poker) and drive it into his leg.
I could hear the bone crack, and the man crumple to the ground as I turned on the light to get a look at him...only to see a man with a red suit and a white beard. One that was real.
No way.
"Santa?" I say, looking at him. "Y...you're real?"
"Of course I'm real!" He shoted at me, before groaning. "To think...you were on the Nice List every year..."
"In my defense, I didn't expect to see you." I said as I helped him onto an armchair. "Your leg, is it..."
"Broken? Yes. I'll be out of action until sunrise."
I groan. "Oh god...did I just ruin Christmas?"
"Actually...no. Believe it or not, this has happened before." Santa removes his coat, giving it to me. "You'll just have to take over. The reindeer know what to do in case of a situation like this."
I take the coat. "Wait...you want me to fill in?"
"Go down the chimney, take things out of the bag, and place them under the tree. It's the easiest thing in the world once you get the hang of it."
"Well...what if someone sees me?"
"You'll only need to worry if it's a man. If it's a woman well..."
"Well what?"
Santa laughed. "I'm a happily married man, but for a strapping young man like you...let's say some women require different Christmas magic."
So yes, this plot IS kind of like The Santa Clause in that it's about a guy who has to fill in for Saint Nick, but with a twist in that certain women can see him, and their present is...well, sex, obviously. The question I have for you then is...what kind of women are these (besides all being over 18)? Could it be a celebrity, lonely on the holidays, loved by millions but not in a way that matters? A lonely housewife or widow, remembering Christmases past? Perhaps even a Scrooge-like woman who needs to get the Christmas spirit in her in a very uh...sexual way.
If you're interested, please let me know!
