Hey again everybody! Long time no see, I guess... Anyways, you're probably wondering what I'm doing writing an H+B fic, huh? Well, lemme explain to ya... This isn't exactly a crossover between Love Hina and Hamtaro...Mainly just a crossover of Hamtaro and the Love Hina Christmas special. Anyways, I just had the idea of making this crossover, but didn't know which couple to use. Boss+Bijou would be good, but I'm already working on the sequal to my B+B fic, so, no. Cappy+Penelope? Well, it would be pretty tough, considering that Penelope couldn't really confess to Cappy just by saying "Ookwee, Ookwee!". Stan+Pashmina? I'm already currently working on a Stan+Pashy fic, so, naw. So I figured that I might as well make it H+B. I guess I'm dedicating this not only to my friends who are H+B fans, but also to you H+B fans who read my B+B fic. This is my way of saying "Thanks for reading". ^_^ Anyways, I hope that pretty much clears it up. Now then, on with Winter Wish!

Disclaimer: I do not own Hamtaro, Love Hina, or the song "Winter Wish".

LYRICS:

"Winter Wish"

(How it) heated up a small happiness at the right time

In your heart and soul, does it hurt like this?

Your eyes, your voice, they are all cherished

The snow that landed on my cheek changed into tears

Always being by your side, please don't let go of these hands

The winter sky (and) the shining stars surrounded the two of us

White shoulders (and) white breaths, I'm feeling it with you, this winter wish

We walked closely together (at the) oceanside amusement park

Riding the ferris wheel, let's look at the city of lights

The distant ocean and the fleeting kiss aren't enough

The beginning is the snowy eve. It's a small story

I love you more than anyone. Please don't let go of these hands

We walk in the footprints that line our future

With both the warmth and the gentleness, let's embrace this winter wish

Prologue:

~**~

Hamtaro stood up and bounded over to the corner of the small ham-ham sized sandbox. He was tiny, like a little baby hamster, but he didn't really notice this.

"Diggi-duggi, diggi-duggi..."

A pile of sand formed behind him. He jumped up and down until he finally came out of his hole. He began to pat at the pile of sand, trying to make a sandcastle...or something of the sort. Suddenly, he heard a deep, yet squeaky, voice call out to him.

"Hamha!"

He tilted his head and looked up from his pile of sand. There, standing before him, was the most adorable little chibi-Boss, with a plastic shovel and the same helmet, only it fit him much better because he was so small.

"Ham...ha?" Hamtaro said softly. He giggled. "Ham-ha! Ham-ha ham-ha ham-ha!!" he yelled with joy. Then suddenly another ham-ham showed up. The brightest sunlight shone, bouncing off her gorgeous white fur. She had only a small "pigtail" on the top of her head tied in a blue ribbon. When she saw Hamtaro, her cheeks turned red. When Boss saw her, his cheeks turned red also.

"Hamha!" she called out.

"Hamha!" Hamtaro yelled even more enthusiastically, spinning around in a circle. When he stopped, he was dizzily ready to fall over, right in front of Bijou. Bijou giggled and turned even redder.

"Heke?" Hamtaro said.

Little Boss saw this and was furious. He ran over to Bijou and immediately grabbed her paw and yanked on it. Hamtaro gasped and saw that there was an expression of fear on Bijou's face. He didn't know what to do, so he tugged her other paw. Boss tugged the one in his grasp again, harder. Bijou wailed. Hamtaro didn't want to hurt her, so he could think of nothing else but to hug little Bijou. She blushed and even smiled a bit, though Boss's paw was still holding hers. Shock covered Boss's face until he, too, hugged Bijou. Bijou felt as if she was stuck and slipped right underneath from the two young hams' arms. The two of them fell down, then she stood before them. The hamboys opened their eyes, dusted themselves off, and stood up, looking at poor, confused Bijou. Boss sniffled and looked at her through teary eyes.

"Schmubby-wubby..." he cried softly.

Hamtaro looked at Boss sadly. He hadn't meant to make Boss mad, or make him cry. Then he looked at Bijou with confusion.

"Schmubby-wubby?" he said, puzzled and afraid.

Bijou looked at Hamtaro, then at Boss, then at the two of them.

"Schmubby-wubby?" she said.

~**~

Bijou slowly opened her sleep-ridden eyes. A bit puzzled, she yawned, sat up, and stretched. She saw two other tired faces stretching and yawning as well; Hamtaro's and Boss's.

"Heke? What happened?" Hamtaro said drowsily.

"Looks like we fell asleep on the job." Bijou said, giggling.

"Gosh... I wonder how that happened?" Hamtaro replied.

"Alright now, sleepyheads, we gotta get back to work!" Boss said, picking up some scissors and construction paper.

[Hamtaro]

Hamtaro, December 19th. Me, Boss, and Bijou have been workin' really hard for the past couple of days! Let's see...um...4... Uh, oh yeah! We've been working on the clubhouse for 8 whole days! Can you believe it? Laura and her friends have been on Christmas vacation since the 11th! Lucky she and Maria are both on vacation with their families! And Boss doesn't have a human, so he's got plenty of time. All the other ham-hams had to stay with their families. But we're decorating the clubhouse for a party! It'll be lots and lots of fun! But whenever Bijou looks at me, her cheeks get all red. Maxwell says it's because she likes me. It's kinda scary, though, because I think I might like her too. I THINK... I'm not sure! But if I do, what if Boss gets mad? He likes Bijou a whole lot! Oh well, guess I'll just have to ignore it. For now, my main goal is to make ALL the ham-hams happy by setting them up with other people...I guess. I love to see the couples together, like Sandy and Maxwell, but sometimes when I see 'em, I feel like I'm... I dunno, missing something. It's really just silly, I guess. Maybe I should ignore that too. Well, maybe the party next week will cheer me up!

[Bijou]

Bijou, December 19th. Well, it is that joyous season again already! Boss, Hamtaro and I have been working hard on a ham-ham holiday party since the 11th. I am so lucky to have this opportunity to work with Hamtaro. Maybe as a Christmas gift I could tell him how I feel! I wonder if that would make him happy. Hamtaro and I have been spending so much time together, I am so happy! Boss almost seems a bit upset. Maybe it is because he is lonely on Christmas, being a field ham and all. No one should be alone on Christmas. But I still feel like it is rude of him to get upset and interrupt every time Hamtaro and I get closer. It is too bad that he has no one to love, but he does not have to take it out on Hamtaro and I. Though I wish there was something I could do for him... Oh well. I cannot wait until the party! It is supposed to be in five more days. I hope Hamtaro, Boss and I can finish decorating and getting the food by then! Because that is when I plan on telling Hamtaro how I feel! I know that all of the ham-hams will be happy for me!

[Boss]

Boss-man, December 19th. I don't even remember how long I've been working on the clubhouse with Bijou and Hamtaro, but it seems like it's been forever since I've last been with all the ham-hams. I miss them all, but I enjoy being able to spend this much time with Bijou...I guess. Hamtaro's here too, unfortunately, so most of the attention is going to him. But I'm not giving up just yet! I figure that maybe if I show her how hard I can work, she'll be really impressed and that'll get her to like me! Who knows? This could perhaps lead to mistletoe...

A/N: This ends the epilogue. The theme song would play now. ^_^ Am I doing a good job so far? Please R/R!!
