wc_women_fest | Round Four: Holidays

Round Four of the Awesome Ladies of White Collar prompt fest is now open! The theme for this round is Holidays. How do the ladies celebrate? Are there parties to plan? Friends and families to see? Crimes to commit or criminals to foil? You can either respond directly to the theme and post your work to the community, or you can leave prompts here that relate to the theme. Or you can do both. If you do post your work to the community, please tag it "round 4 - holidays".

Before we begin, I just wanted to remind everybody to be respectful, fills for prompts should be posted as a reply to the prompt, or linked in a reply to the prompt.

Elizabeth, first Christmas with Neal around, what do you get someone who seems to have everything and nothing at the same time?

"I'm tempted to just get him a gift card to someplace, but I don't even know where he shops."

Peter snorted. "Nowhere that sells gift cards."

Neal set the glasses on the table with a grin. "Oh come on, Moz is easy. A nice bottle of wine, a first edition of something, or you know, he's really fond of Tom Clancy."

"Is that what you're getting him?" Elizabeth asked shrewdly.

Neal glanced at Peter and his grin grew smaller. "Most of what I get him could be considered aiding and abetting."

Peter looked up at him sharply, and Elizabeth patted Peter's shoulder.

"Then there was that time we were passing through D.C. on his birthday, and I booked him on one of those Pentagon tours."

"And when exactly is Moz's birthday?" Peter demanded, ready to cross reference the date with unsolved crimes, and Elizabeth swatted him on the back of the head.

"No fair gathering evidence at the dinner table," she told him.

"We're not eating yet," he justified weakly.

"Hey, if Peter wants to check with the D.C. office, it's fine by me." Neal perched himself on one of their chairs. "He's not going to find anything."

"Oh ho," Peter shot back, enjoying himself. "That's what you think."

"You're just mad because I suggested you get a manicure."

"Well anyway," Elizabeth said forcefully. "We wanted to thank you for the wine, and the coffee cake, and Peter's tie, and we got you a little something for Christmas."

"You didn't have t-"

"Open it."

Neal pulled the tape off in strips and rolled it up before unfolding the paper. And when he could see what it contained, her started laughing. "You got me "Catch Me if You Can?"

"We..." began Peter, who hadn't been involved. "Thought it was appropriate?"

"I'm not watching it with you." He put his arm around Peter's shoulder, then stood up to kiss Elizabeth on the cheek. "He gloats," he whispered to her.

Peter pretended to be annoyed. "Do you even have a DVD player?"

Neal grinned again. "Of course I do, I stole it from Moz."

"Ingrate."

Perfect.

Thank you. I had a lot of fun with it.
