Bree's P.O.V.
I sigh to myself, staring at the fireplace; millions of memories flooding my mind.
Where has the time gone?
I remember when we were just little kids, our first Christmas in the lab when we really understood the meaning.
Mr. Davenport telling us about the first Christmas night; three wise men, the shining star, the baby in the manger.
Amd all of the Christmases since then just seem like distant memories. After we moved to Centium City I knew it would be different, that we would all be apart. But I guess I thought we would all be together for Christmas.
Mr. Davenport is in Mission Creek, Adam and Leo are at the academy...Chase and I are here. We have Skylar, Kaz, and Oliver with us, but it's just not the same.
"Ho, ho! Santa's here!" I turn my head in the direction of my brothers voice as he walks through the door holding bags filled with presents and decoration.
"I'm not sitting in your laps, just hand over the presents!" Skylar jokes and Chase rolls his eyes, smacking the hands that reach towards the presents.
"Hey, get out of those!" He demands. "You don't get presents till Christmas. But I did get the list of decorations Skylar so 'politely' requested." He uses finger quotes.
"Did you get them all?" She questions and he nods his head, reading the list aloud.
"One big Christmas tree, three boxes of blue and silver ornaments, three hundred feet of garland, twelve Christmas candles, four poinsettias - Kaz, don't eat them - oh, and one Santa hat." He shows her the receipt. "You owe me two hundred and sixty dollars!" He jokes.
"Why in the world do you need three hundred feet of garland?" Oliver asks the alien girl and she shakes her head.
"Don't get up in my business. Now you two go help Chase bring up the rest of the bags."
After about fifteen minutes all the decorations are finally in the penthouse, and Chase has hidden the presents somewhere.
Skylar smiles and grabs the decorations. "Help me put up the decorations?" She asks me, smiling.
I pull my knees up to my chest. "Uh...n-no, you can do it."
Chase furrows his brows, sitting next to me. "You okay? Decorating is one of your favorite parts about Christmas."
"I'm fine, really."
"Are you su-" he places his hand on my forehead but I cut him off mid word.
"I said I'm fine!" I snap at him, instantly feeling guilty. He quickly pulls his hand back, giving me an apologetic look.
I sigh, standing and heading up to my room.
Chase's P.O.V.
"What was that all about?" Kaz asks as I watch my sister stalk up the stairs.
I shrug my shoulders. "I dunno. It's not like her to sip on anything Christmas related."
"Well...who wants to help me?" Skylar asks. I see that she's already used her super speed to hang the stockings and line the wall with garland.
"I'll help!" I smile at her and she smiles back. Oliver glares at me.
"Bah hum bug!" He yells.
I roll my eyes, looking back at Skylar. "Hey, why did you want this?" I ask, picking up a bright red Samoa hat.
She shrugs her shoulders. "I dunno. I just really wanted one!"
I chuckle as we begin decorating, along with Kaz and Oliver's help.
An hour later we have every decoration up except the Christmas tree.
"Okay, tree time!" Oliver carries the big box next to the fire place.
"Wait." I stop him.
"What?"
"We can't do this part without Bree. Someone should go get her." Kaz completes my thought.
"Chase, you go." Skylar insists.
"Yeah, she'll listen to you. Plus...we're scared of her when she's in a mood..."
I sigh. "Okay." I make my way up the stairs, arriving st her door. I knock, awaiting her response.
Bree's P.O.V.
"Bree...can I come in?" I hear my brothers voice through the wooden door.
Using my super speed, I quickly dry my tears, fixing my smudged makeup to hide the evidence of the tears that had previously been flowing down my face.
I climb back into my bed, pretending to be asleep. I can hear him open the door, followed by his footsteps softly edging towards me.
"Bree...wake up, sweetheart." He gently shakes my shoulders and I try my best to keep my eyes closed.
He stops for a second and I feel the bed shift.
"I know your faking." I hear aloud whisper in my ear, causing my body to jerk.
"Chase!" I smack his arm and he chuckles.
"C'mon! It's time to decorate the tree."
"I don't want to."
"Yes you do." He persists.
"No I don't."
"Yes you do!"
"No I don't!"
"Yes you do!" He doesn't give me a seconds notice before pulling me up by my hands. "C'mon!"
"No, stop!" I whine.
"Let's go!" He lifts me over his shoulder.
"Chase, stop it!" I nearly scream.
He sighs, placing me back on the bed, noticing the tears that started going down my face once again.
"Bree, why are you crying?"
I just shake ,y head instead of responding.
He thinks for a moment, then tilts his head. "Are you on your-"
"No!" I cry in frustration.
"Okay." He whispers, pulling me into his arms. "What's goin' on?"
"This isn't how it's suppose to be!" I cry into his flannel shirt as he rubs circles on my back.
"What do you mean?"
I sniffle before responding. "Christmas is all wrong this year. Our family is spread across the country when we're all supposed to be together."
He tucks my hair behind my ear, pushing me away so he can see my face. "Bree, I know it's hard being so far away from everyone. I miss them too. And I know it's not the same, it we have a great new family to spend Christmas with."
I lean my head on his chest, waiting for him to continue.
"Skylar's excite about the holiday; so's Kaz. And Oliver is working on not being a Scrooge!" He chuckles and I giggle.
Then he turns serious. "I know you're upset, but I think I know what will help."
"What?"
He smirks evilly.
"Chase, what are yo- ahh!" I scream as he lifts me back over his shoulder, tickling my sides.
"Stop!" I giggle.
He heads down the stairs, singing at the top of his lungs. "Deck the halls with bells of holly! Fa la la la la la la la la!"
It's not like him to be in this much of a Christmas spirit. Don't get me wrong, he loves Christmas, but we can never get him to sing a Christmas carols. He claims his voice sounds nad, even though he and I are the only ones in the whole family who can carry a tune.
Chase's P.O.V.
Okay, this may not be my usual self, but Bree needs someone who can cheer her up. I may have asked Adam for a few big brother tips so I could fill his shoes while we're all apart.
He said Bree just needs someone to be goofy when she's upset; someone to make her smile. And that's exactly what I intend to do.
Skylar's P.O.V.
"Tis the season to be jolly!" Chase comes into the living room singing happily with Bree over his shoulder as the rest of us, except Bree, join in.
"Fa la la la la la la la la!" We harmonize.
Chase flops Bree onto the couch, flat on her back. "It's time to decorate the tree!" He smiles his gorgeous smile, causing butterflies to swarm in my stomach.
Wait...did I just-...? Uh, anyways...
Bree laughs as he pokes at her ribs. "C'mon, c'mon, c'mon!"
"Okay, okay!" She stands to her feet, opening the Christmas tree box.
"Chase, you grab the top; Kaz, get the middle; and Oliver, you have the bottom. Skylar and I will open the ornaments."
I smile at Bree as I walk over to Chase. "Is she okay?" I ask and he nods his head.
"I think she will be."
A few minutes later the tree is put together and the lights are shining brightly. Chase and Bree pull out their ornaments from Mission Creek, while Oliver, Kaz, and I unpack ours from Mighty Med.
"Okay, when y'all put on the pretty ornaments, remember not to put any same color or kind next to each other!" I demand.
"Yes m'am."
Chase pulls out his phone, playing Michael Buble' s Christmas album; Bree's favorite. I can tell there's something going on with her, but I don't know what.
"I really can't stay. - baby, it's cold outside - I've gotta go away - baby, it's cold outside!" Chase and I sing together. He has an amazing voice, by the way.
I smile as he walks over to Bree, takes her hand, and spins her around. "The evening has been so nice and warm." He's such a good brother to her.
Bree giggles as she, Oliver, and Kaz join in.
"My mother will start to worry! My father will be pacing the floor! - Stay for just a half a drink more!"
We dance around and sing, getting caught in the heap of garland I had left over. Oliver oooses his balances, knocking Kaz over and creating a domino effect on the rest of us. We all fall to the floor laughing.
I look over at Chase, taking in how incredibly goofy and...fun he's being. "I've never seen this side of you."
He chuckles. "Neither have I."
"BABY, IT'S COLD!" We all sing loudly. "BABY, IT'S COLD OUTSIDE!"
