Mikan, Hotaru,Nonoko and Anna were all walking by shops. It was 2 days away from Christmas
and they were all doing last minute shopping for some of their friends. There was a line by a toy shop for Santa Clause. They saw Natsume there with his sister, Aoi who was talking to a little girl in the line who was cying holding on to the hands of boy who looked the same age as Aoi
"Natsume, Aoi-chan! Whats going on? Why is she crying?"
"Some kid pushed her to the ground just cause she was first in line"
"Oh...I see"
"We're trying to get her to stop crying"
"Why don't we take her to Santa first, Im sure the other kids won't mind. She's already crying"
"Alright"
"You wanna come, Natsume?"
"Not, I'll go to the Ice Cream Shoppe" he said walking away
"Fine, have it your way" said Mikan
"Thats how I like it" he muttered
So Mikan and Aoi took the little girl to Santa and she sat on his lap and told him what she wanted for Christmas. After that she smiled looked at both of them thanked them and ran back to the boy, who was maybe her brother. Who knows.
"How 'bout both of you? Any Christmas wishes?" the guy as Santa asked
"Nah, We're too old for that. Sitting on your lap and all" said Mikan
"No ones to old to experience Christmas joys. Im sure one of you would like something"
"Hmm...fine,I'll give it a shot" Aoi said walking near him and she whisphered in his ear "I know its weird..but...I..want a...boyfriend for Christmas"
"Aren't you a bit too young for that kind of thing?" he asked
"Whats wrong? My onii-chan courted her" referring to Mikan "when he was 13, not like they became together that very moment. Only a year ago. I want a boyfriend for Christmas, same way as onii-chan its not like we're together immedietly. Im sure we'l both have values to get together at a decent age. For now we'll be like best friends"
"I'll think about it. I'll have something for you under your tree on Christmas" he smiled
"How about you? Really nothing?" he asked Mikan
"You can't help in anything with what I want"
"
"Oh,but I've got one advice for you"
"What would that be?" she asked with a smile
"Don't lose hope. Its Christmas after all, you never know what holiday miracles could come your way"
"Alright. Thanks!" she said "Well I gotta go, bye!"
"You'll have something from me under your tree too" he called out
"Thanks again!"

Christmas morning Aoi ran down the stair of their house and went to their Christmas tree, she found the gift for her from the Santa in the toy shop and opened it. Inside the box was a silver necklace with a lockett at the reverse side of it was the words "The gift of love only when two hearts are hearts are better, true love to treasure. "
"What does this mean?" she whisphered to herself 'The gift of love only when two hearts are ready. Two hearts are better, true love to treasure'
Later that day Aoi was walking in the park and she saw Mikan who was also walking with her onii-chan
"Aoi-chan! What did you get from the Santa guy?" asked Mikan
"This" Aoi said uhooking the necklace from her neck and holding out the necklace for her to see
"Wow, thats nice" she said looking at it then she read "'The gift of love only when two hearts are ready. Two hearts are better, true love to treasure'. What does that mean?"
"I dunno , what did you get?"
"I got a musical jewelry box" she smiled " Its black,it looks fancy"
"Nice"
"Dumb conversation. Hey Polka, you want a cotton candy?"
"Sure" she smiled
"Lets go" he said holding her hand "Buriko, I'll be home late. I have band practice with Yume and Ruka"
"Alrighty onii-chan!"
