Usagi screamed aloud. Minako looked over the edge of the tree she had been covering
in tinsel. "Usagi, what's wrong?" she asked. Usagi pointed to the box of ornaments Luna
was sitting on. Makoto came in holding a tray of pumpkin pie, hot cocoa, and cookies.
"What's wrong with my home made ornaments" Makoto snapped. Usagi quietly said,
"The Santa ornament scares me." Usagi tried to hide behind the couch but bumped into
Seiya's leg instead, "ouch" she protested.
Seiya pushed Usagi forward into the opening. Makoto had moved on to hanging
ornaments. Then Ami pulled out her book and started calculating how much power they
could use in order to stay safe. Minako fell off her stool and into Rei's outstretched arms.
Rei laughed and Minako looked confused.
Usagi sat on the couch hogging on too many cookies. She looked around for Mamoru,
maybe he hadn't shown yet. Meanwhile Haruka and Michiru hadn't moved from under
the mistletoe still kissing passionately. Usagi noticed Seiya staring at her even though his
arms were firmly wrapped around Kakayu's waist. Yaten and Taiki came to her side and
started chatting about the snow outside.
It took awhile for Sestuna and Hotaru to push their way into Makoto's apartment
because Haruka and Michiru blocking the entrance. Finally the foursome moved into the
kitchen to snag some cookies hot off the pan. Haruka picked up Hotaru so that she could
reach some glasses on the top shelf. Michiru grinned. Sestuna had already eaten quite a
few cookies. Haruka smirked, "trying to get big?" Sestuna glared at her calmly. Michiru
smirked. Haruka chased her into the living room.
Yaten and Taiki happened to be tying some bows around the garland when Michiru ran
right into the bow they were tying. Michiru with a bow around her, Haruka laughed.
Taiki apologized and helped untie it. Yaten just stared and went to help Ami calculate the
statistics. Minako and Rei had moved on to hanging stockings on the fireplace which
Chibi Chibi had constantly checked for chocolate from Santa.
Makoto put the star on top of the tree. Ami and Yaten were deep in an argument about
power. Finally Makoto was irritated and decided to just plug the lights in any way.
Everyone stared at their surroundings that were decorated in many lights. Usagi's mouth
dropped open in amazement, "aw, Makoto!"
Mamoru finally entered disguised as Santa with Chibi-usa as an elf. They came
bearing gifts for everyone. Mamoru glared at Usagi with bright eyes as he handed her a
gift. She blushed. The group gathered round to open gifts and eat in merry Givings.
Mamoru and Usagi finally got to kiss under the mistletoe. Of course they had to battle
Haruka and Michiru for the spot first.
