I know today isn't Christmas, but the reason I couldn't upload it on Christmas was that I was at the beach from December 24 to December 27. I had already written this story way before Christmas, but I couldn't upload it on time. Sorry about that! Welp, enjoy the story.
Warnings: Nothing major. This is safe to read.

"Tomorrow is Christmas, my lord," I heard my butler's voice make its way from behind the slightly open door. I looked up to see him gently push the door completely open and walk inside, a clean white paper held between his gloved hands. He walked to my desk and, with a smile that caused his eyes to close, laid the paper on my desk. "Write all your wishes on here."
"No need," I told him, pushing the paper away. "I don't want anything in particular this year."
"Young master," he began, the smile quickly leaving his face and his hand pushing the paper back, "there must be something you want…"
"No, nothing," I answered decisively.
"Well, how about you just think about it?"
"Okay, Sebastian," I said with a sigh, grabbing for my feather pen and dipping it in ink.
Sebastian walked out, and I sat there thinking of what I wanted for Christmas. A puppy? No. A new chair? Now that I think about it, I could indeed use a few extra chairs… In a rush of scribbles, I wrote down, "Chair." I looked around to see plenty of chairs, so as quickly as I wrote it, I scribbled that wish off my paper.
Hmm… well, I do want… I… I do want Sebastian for Christmas. My cheeks burned up with embarrassment at the thought, and I quickly dismissed it with other thoughts. I have him all day, every day anyways! But… but I want him in a different… way. I gulped unsteadily at the thoughts and imaginations that were running in my head.
I can't have Sebastian for Christmas! That's so… so… so unreasonable… and so cliché, too, I added.
But I wrote it down anyways.
With shaking hands and shaking breath, I wrote, "Sebastian."
But it, too, was scribbled instantly. Sebastian would never grant me that wish. Fine, I decided to myself with a disappointed determination. If I can't have Sebastian, then I want... with a few final strokes of my pen, I wrote,
"Nothing."
Hope you liked it! Don't be afraid to review telling me what you thought about it. I know it didn't end very happily (just like my last one), but I still enjoyed writing it and hope you enjoyed reading it.
