Hey! In honor of the Christmas season, I have created a Christmas Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children ugly sweater party. Hope you enjoy!

Jacob and his dad had just finished putting up the tree when Emma walked into the family room.

"Whoa," she breathed, running her hand along one of the branches. "I haven't seen one of these in decades! It's beautiful."

"Uh, yeah, it is," replied Jacob's father awkwardly. He was still getting used to having the peculiars around.

Just then Claire and Olive bounded into the room, their eyes going wide with excitement.

"Is that a Christmas tree?" Claire asked excitedly.

"It sure is, Claire," Jacob replied, smiling.

"Wow!" said Olive, taking off her shoes and floating up to the ceiling. "I've never seen one of these before!"

"Me neither," Claire added. "All we would ever do for Christmas is give each other small presents. It was fun, but, you know, we never had a real live Christmas tree!"

"Ooh, can we go Christmas shopping?" Olive looked hopefully up at Franklin.

"Sure," Franklin replied, trying to smile at the little girl.

"Yay! I wanna get a present for Bronwyn, and Claire, and Emma, and Enoch, and Fiona - "

"I don't need a present, Olive," said Fiona softly as she entered the room. "Surviving the fall off that cliff is all I need."

Olive looked at her in surprise. "But it's Christmas! Everyone needs a present on Christmas! If you don't get any presents on Christmas, that's just sad."

Emma stifled a laugh and grabbed Olive off of the ceiling, helping her put on her leaden shoes. "Don't worry, Olive," she said. "Everyone's going to get a present. Right Jacob?" She looked at him.

"Of course!" Jacob smiled and came over to join them. "Hey, do you know what would be fun?"

"What?" Claire asked.

"An ugly Christmas sweater party!"

"What's that?" Olive asked.

"It's where you have a party and everyone has to wear an ugly Christmas sweater!"

"Why would we want to wear a ugly sweater?" Claire wrinkled her nose.

Jacob laughed. "Because it's funny! And it doesn't have to be ugly if you don't want it to be. What do you think, Emma?"

Emma smiled warmly. "I think it's a wonderful idea! Let's plan an ugly Christmas sweater party!"

Whew! That's the end of chapter one! What do you guys think? Leave any suggestions in reviews!

I'm also going to leave a question at the end of each chapter to be answered in reviews. Here's the first one: Who's your favorite character in Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children and why?

Thanks for all your support! Byeeeeeeee!
