Just a note here... I was depressed when I wrote this... I had just gotten the news that I would be unable to return to my family for Christmas this year.

Disclaimer: I do not own DGM...


Alone on his mission, Allen briefly thought about what day it was, Christmas Eve

I'm dreaming tonight of a place I love

There was only one place that he wanted to be, The Black Order HQ

Even more thank I usually do

He always wanted to go back, however the urge to go back was stronger tonight

And although I know

Because he didn't want to spend Christmas without his friends

It's a long road back, I promise you

Looking forward on the path he chose, he knew it would lead him back home

I'll be home for Christmas

Thoughts of his friends in the order were swirling about his head

You can count on me

Even though he wasn't there at that point, he would always be there for his friends

Please, have snow and mistletoe

Allen could imagine the tower surrounded by gently falling snow, and Bak attempting to bring Lenalee under the mistletoe

And presents under the tree

And Komui inventing another Komurin to help with the festivities, to everyone's horror

Christmas Eve will find you

He wondered if any of his friends realized what day it was

Where the love light gleams

And if they missed him

I'll be home for Christmas

Oh how he wished he were back

If only in my dreams

Instead of on the front lines of a holy war

Christmas Eve will find me

He could see everyone Christmas morning

Where the love light gleams

Surrounding a huge tree, with piles and piles of presents underneath

I'll be home for Christmas

Opening up their arms to welcome him back

If only in my dreams

The looks of joy on everyone's faces as he joined in

If only in my dreams

Allen woke up from his dream Christmas morning, back in his room at the hotel, with his left arm stretching, straight up, fingers splayed as if it were reaching out to grab something
