Advent Drabble 10 - Gingerbread

[earlgreytea68]

For rereader 

Matt has never made a gingerbread house before, because when would that have happened in his life? He buys the kit on a whim and tells Patrick, “I thought Adam would like it!”

Patrick says indulgently, “Sure,” but doesn’t seem as enthusiastic as Matt would have thought.

Six hours later when the house keeps collapsing on them and Adam has lost interest, Matt gets it. “So gingerbread houses don’t work,” he concludes, disappointed. He’d had grand hopes. But he cheers himself up. “But it does suit this falling-down house of yours.”

“Maybe I’ll try a gumdrop roof next,” Patrick proposes.

I hope the house was edible, at least. One can't suffer so much disappointment in just one day!
