It's not sparkly, it's not glamorous, it's just Stan and Peggy being Stan and Peggy; two people who understand each other far too well... and it just happens to be Christmas Eve. An extended and edited version of chapter 3 from my longer fic, 'Receivers'. Stan/Peggy

Peggy's relationships — romantic or otherwise — have always been turbulent. This story is composed of a series of phone calls and encounters beginning in December, 1968, and ending late 1969. Each chapter details the interactions between two characters. Major spoilers for Season 7a. Peggy Olson, Don Draper, Ted Chaough, Stan Rizzo. **Story now completed**
