Hey Hi Hello everyone! I am SO SORRY I haven't been updating my other stories, I will get to them soon, but I've been putting all my efforts towards this one, so I hope you enjoy it!
I'm really excited for this story, I think I came up with this idea sometime in July and started brainstorming in September, that's how flipping stoked I am currently. xD
Since this month marks my 1 Year Aniversary of being on FanFiction (OMG YAY), I have decided to do a Christmas themed collection of stories for Cielois. I'm going to try and write a different holiday themed scenario with the prompts I've already picked out. I have no where near enough prompts, and December is hectic at school with testing and rallies and finals and blah, so I will be unable to post one every day. I will probably release new chapters randomly.
ANYWAYS, enough with the bable, on to Chapter 1!
Enjoy!~
"Alois."
"Yes, love?" Alois sings from the driver seat of the car.
"Seriously?"
"What? What's wrong?"
"Are you playing Christmas Carols already?"
Alois scoffs. "Already? Ciel, sweetie, you may not realize this, but I only have twenty-five days to play these songs. Twenty-five. With all the remakes, renditions, covers and insturmentals, I have to start right away!" He giggles as he cranks the car stereo's volume up and Jingle Bell Rock screams in Ceil's ears.
"Woah, woah, woah!" Ciel turns the voulme back down to be heard. "Remakes, renditions, covers, and instrumentals? Alley, why dont you just play one version of each song?"
"Ah, there lies the problem. There isn't just one version anymore. There's the normal song," Alois gestures to his radio, "then you have to look at all the singers who covered the song, who remade the song, and the instrumentals. Oh, and the renditons." Alois smiles as he turns the radio back up and starts singing along. Ciel huffs and leans against the window.
They come to a stop light and Alois leans over and places his hands on Ciel's lap. "Okay, what's wrong?"
"You're seriously planning on playing a single song up to like 100 times. That's what's wrong." Ciel huffs.
"Oh please." Alois rolls his eyes and puts his hands back on the wheel as the light turns green. "You just secretly want to sing along."
"Do not."
"Do too. This is about how you're afraid someone's gonna catch you actually happy for once." Alois glances over to see Ciel huff and cross his arms.
"Oh my gosh, I was right?! Ciel, lighten up! Where's your Christmas spirit?" Alois laughs, play shoving Ciel in his seat.
"It's the first of December, Alois. Maybe my Spirit's still in November. You know, that completely different month that ended only eight hours ago."
"Only eight ho-Ciel. Sweetite. Love of my life. Your soul has had eight hours to get a hint. If it's still lagging back in November, that's something you might want checked out-hey, okay-no-do not aim for the face, I am driving Ciel, God."
"I should've gotten a ride from Sebastian." Ceil mutters.
Alois laughs.
XxXxXxX
"Ciel, darling, make yourself useful." Alois says, emerging from the closet carrying a red and green storage container. He jerks his head towards the closet, and Ciel watches his blonde hair flip across his face.
"Are you seriously putting up Christmas decorations already?"
"No, I'm saving that for a weekend, I'm just moving the boxes out. Correction, we are doing this. As in together. Right now. Come on."
"I'm kind of doing homework." Ciel waves at his papers on the kitchen counter. Alois comes up behind him and scoffs.
"That teacher never collects the homework."
"This might be the only assignment she does collect."
"Well that's gonna suck for you, because you're not going to finish it. You might, but not now. Come help." Alois says, pulling Ciel towards the closet.
"The last time we were both in a closet together, you had a hickey the size of my fist for a week." Ciel says, nuzzling his nose into Alois neck. Alois shivers and Ciel smiles.
"Oh, trust me, you don't need to remind me." Alois turns around, and Ciel pulls him in by his scarf and kisses him slow and long. When he pulls away, Alois shoves a box at him.
"If you distract me, I will never forgive you." Alois squints at Ciel as he winks and walks away with the box.
"Yes, you will." He says over his shoulder. "And for fucks sake, Alois. Can you play any other Holiday song besides Jingle Bell Rock?"
Alois laughs. "This is the updated version!"
Alois laughs harder when he hears Ciel groan.
XxXxXxX
Alois hums Jingle Bell Rock as he makes dinner.
Ciel throws a pillow at his head and almost sets it on fire.
XxXxXxX
"Alois! I swear to God!" Ciel yells from the shower as Alois puts Jingle Bell Rock on in the bathroom speaker. "Why do you have a bloody speaker above the shower?!"
"So I can rock out to my tunes as I wash, rinse, and repeat, duh. Don't be such a Negative Nelly, Ciel!" Alois yells back as he starts singing along with the song. Ciel groans, shutting the water off and quickly getting dressed before marching into the bedroom. Alois is beaming at him from the bed.
"I hate you."
"Liar."
"Why just this song, Alois?" Ciel whines.
"This is a remake, Ciel. No need for the drama, honestly."
"How many more remakes and renditions of this song left?"
"Relax, my limit is as many as I can shove in 24 hours, so we're almost done with this song."
"You're going to drive me mad." Ciel sighs, going back into the bathroom.
"Don't I always?"
Ciel can hear the smile in his voice.
Ciel gets caught humming Jingle Bell Rock as he crawls into bed, and is promptly made fun of for the rest of the night.
XxXxXxX
Alois sets 'Jingle Bell Rock Instrumental' as his ringtone a couple days later.
Ciel chucks the phone out the room when Grell calls for the 4th time about History notes.
Alois laughs so hard he needs to sit down.
So here's Chapter 1 for ya.
If you enjoyed it, make sure to leave a review! I'll really appreciate it!
Of course, if you have any holiday themed prompts you'd like to see me do, leave them as a review please! I'll do as many as I can.
There's no real schedule I'm following with a new chapter release for this, it's whenever I can sit down and write it all out.
ITS ALREADY BEEN A YEAR OH MY GOODNESS. 1 year from today, I joined this site, never thinking anybody would read any of my crappy stories. But literally 365 days later, here we are! I'm so thankful for everybody supporting me, and I cant wait to see what the future years bring for me and all of you!
Thanks for everything, Darlings! Until next time!
~Alix
