I thought it was interesting that Stephenie Meyer never mentioned Christmas but always mentioned birthdays. So I decided to write my own one-shot concerning Christmas. I'm currently rereading Twilight again, so I guess this is post- Twilight and pre- New Moon.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~October 10th, the Cullens' house~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"DO VAMPIRES CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS?" I ASKED, AS ALICE SET OUT TO FIND the Halloween decorations. I didn't see why she would need them, seeing as no one came here to trick-or-treat. And there were already more than enough vampires.
"Of course, Bella," Jasper said, "Alice wouldn't miss an opportunity to buy more if the world were at an end." Alice stuck her tongue out at Jasper.
"Oh, that's right, I should have known." I replied.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~December 5th, Bella's bed~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"EDWARD," I ASKED, "DO OTHER VAMPIRES CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS? OR IS IT just Alice?"
"Just Alice, love. Of course, what would you give someone who already has everything? Alice somehow finds something new every year, or replaces something Emmet broke…"
I nodded, keeping silent. I wondered what Edward could possible want for Christmas. He already had everything.
"Please. Tell me what you're thinking."
I paused, knowing that if I told him, he'd only tell me that he wouldn't want anything. I looked at him, wondering what to tell him, and his stunning was only two short inches away from mine.
"Wondering what to get you for Christmas," I whispered in a daze, leaning in.
He chuckled, but complied.
Too soon, as always, he pulled away. "It's completely unnecessary, you know."
I sighed. "I know."
He chuckled again and pressed his cold lips to my forehead.

"EDWARD, REALLY. YOU KNOW I DON'T LIKE PRESENTS." I COMPLAINED, doing what I could to stop him from getting me unnecessary gifts.
"Ah, but you'll like mine."
"Be serious."
He stared at me, his eyes filled with resolve.
"Really, Edward, all I want for Christmas is you."
What he got her is up to your imagination. It's my first one, so R&R please. Maxie.
