I'm starting a 12 days of Christmas drabble. The title itself is explanatory but I will not publish on the 25th [because it's Christmas and I'll be busy]
Soul hated caroling, it brought back the bad memories of his childhood which he did not want to remember at all. But, Maka signed both of them up for caroling and he didn't want to complain about it because then he and Maka would get in another fight. And Soul would then be off wandering the streets for hours until he calmed down. This happened one to many times for Soul to count. He just decided to be okay with it at this point.
He could be okay with it.
He couldn't.
He had to sing with everyone else their, and Soul's ears actually started bleeding when he heard Black*Star's voice. Sure he was never as good as Wes was when it came to perfect pitch but he still had it, which was the important thing. It was a blessing and a curse, he knew he was better then all the people singing and playing wise, but having to hear all of those awful singing voices made Soul personally want to take his soul out with his own hand. No one in Death City could sing, except maybe Maka and Marie. So they caroled:
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
'Tis the season to be jolly
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Don we now our gay apparel
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la.
Troll the ancient Yule-tide carol
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.
See the blazing Yule before us.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Strike the harp and join the chorus.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Follow me in merry measure.
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la.
While I tell of Yule-tide treasure.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Fast away the old year passes.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Hail the new year, lads and lasses
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Sing we joyous, all together.
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la.
Heedless of the wind and weather.
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
"Soul?" said Maka
"Uh, yeah what's up Angel?" replied Soul
"You zoned out, come on let's catch up with the rest of our group before they get too ahead" replied Maka
Soul intertwined their fingers together and spoke, "Okay."
Together they walked hand in hand in the snow wandering together to find their friends. Together.
Luckily, Maka and Soul found the gang just in time, and to Soul's absolute joy were able to carol with them. And carol they did. Tsubaki knocked on the door, and when it opened:
"Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bobtail ring'
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight!
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh! what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way;
Oh! what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon, Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side,
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
He got into a drifted bank
And then we got upsot.
A day or two ago,
The story I must tell
I went out on the snow,
And on my back I fell;
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh,
He laughed as there I sprawling lie,
But quickly drove away.
Now the ground is white
Go it while you're young,
Take the girls tonight
and sing this sleighing song;
Just get a bobtailed bay
Two forty as his speed[b]
Hitch him to an open sleigh
And crack! you'll take the lead.
"How lovely! You guys were just adorable, will you sing for me again?" asked the owner, who happened to be Marie
Tsubaki answered, "Um...sure! Okay everyone, 1,2,3!"
"Feliz Navidad

From the bottom of my heart."
Marie clapped with excitement, "Yay!"
They all mumbled their thank you's and left.
Maka and Soul walked home together. Moving their hands together a little more enthusiastically then they should of it was a good day, despite what Soul thought.
"Soul, I think your a lovely singer." said Maka
Soul chuckled, "Shut up Maka!"
"What!? It's true!"
"You're pretty good too" Soul mumbled quietly
Maka looked at Soul with innocence on her face, "What? I couldn't hear you?"
"You sing well."
"Awww! Soul your too sweet!" squealed Maka
"Shut up Maka!" yelled Soul
Maka chuckled and spoke, "I'm just teasing, get a joke."
"Hahaha, very funny"
"I know"
Maka all of a sudden stopped walking, "Soul, thank you for caroling I know that you don't like it" and with that Maka planted a kiss on Soul's cheek
Soul grinned as wide as he possibly could, "Aww, come on Maka, if you want Santa to give you a gift you better be nice, come on kiss Soul on the lips this time"
Maka just rolled her eyes, "Alright"
Day one finished! Happy holidays!
Love,
Poe
