On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, A Partridge in a Pear Tree.

Day 1

What should I do? What should I do? I gotta give something to Yusei. Why did I agree to participate in the gift exchange? I mean I never did really celebrate Christmas when I was with Sayer. It all started with Leo and Luna wanting to celebrate Christmas.

Flashback

"Since we're almost out of school for the winter break, why not celebrate the holidays with you guys?" said Leo.

"Yeah, I've always wanted to celebrate Christmas with my family and friends but you know our situation. Our parents are always on their business trip. So why not celebrate Christmas with friends," said Luna.

"That's a great idea, guys. We'd love to! How about you two?" asked Yusei.

"I'm in!" said Crow.

"I'm not that kind of a Christmas person but if it's with you guys then I'm also in," said Jack.

"What about you Akiza?"

"Huh."

"Do you want to celebrate Christmas with us?" asked Luna.

Akiza didn't know how to celebrate Christmas but she also didn't want to disappoint the twins and everyone else. "Sure."

"Alright! Well how should we celebrate it?" asked Leo.

"How about we exchange gifts to each other by writing our names on a piece of paper and then put it in a bag and we pick out the name," said Luna. "I've always wanted to exchange gifts other than Leo."

"Yeah…huh…Hey!"

"So enough with the talking and let's write our name on a piece of paper," said Crow.

So, the gang wrote their names on a piece of paper and put it in a bag.

"Okay, so who's first?" asked Yusei, holding the bag in his hand.

"Me!" said Crow. He put his hand in the bag and pulled out a piece of paper. "I got…"

"Wait!" yelled Luna.

"What?"

"You can't say who you got or it won't be a surprise."

"Umm…okay"

"Who's next?"

"I, Jack Atlas, will pick out a name." He put his hand in the bag and saw who he had to give a gift. He was not very happy.

"Next."

Leo was next and pulled out a piece of paper. Luna did the same as her brother and was very happy that she got someone else other than her brother. Yusei picked out a name and he smiled. Akiza was the last to pick out a name. When she saw who she had to give, her heart skipped a beat. No way! She thought.

"Okay, now that's over, it's time to shop!" said Luna.

Immediately everyone left to the mall and shop. Akiza was left behind and she couldn't believe it.

End of Flashback

So Akiza was at the mall looking something that Yusei will like and will be able to use it every day. Maybe some cologne, Nah…What is it that he likes to do...Well he does like to work on his Duel Runner. She thought to herself. Maybe a toolbox? She went to a warehouse and was looking at the tools. This isn't going to be easy. She walked out of the warehouse and went to an ice-cream shop and ordered a strawberry milkshake. She saw many people with bags in their hands. Man she wished that this Christmas shopping would be easier. I want to give Yusei something so special but I can't think what he likes. I mean he's helped me so much and he practically saved my life. She was thinking of Yusei almost every day. She saw him in her dream, yes she wasn't see him as a friend. She wanted him more than a friend. What if I told him that I love him…but what if he rejects me…I know I should let him hear me out by singing…Now what song should I sing to him? She was thinking long and hard. Akiza saw Carly window shopping. Maybe she can help me out.

"Hey Carly!"

Carly was busying Christmas shopping on her own. She didn't know that she would bump into Akiza. Akiza was still calling her name.

"Carly! Hey Carly!"

Carly turned around to see who was calling her. She saw Akiza running towards her. "Hey Akiza"

"I was calling you. Didn't you hear me?"

"No I was listening to music, since it only keeps me company. What brings you here?"

"I'm shopping for a Christmas present for Yusei, and I was wondering if you could help me."

"Well I don't know…I mean I barely know him."

"Okay, let's say if you wanted to give a present to Jack."

"Really?"

"Please pay attention…so as I was saying. Suppose you wanted to give Jack a present, what would you give him?"

"There are so many things I would give him, but I would like to let him know how much I really like him. Jack is thankful of me helping him out when he lost the duel to Yusei in the Fortune Cup. He said that with other people, they never know what he's actually feeling. When he stayed in my apartment for a while it took me a while for him to realize that he can start over again. Well actually I convinced him that he can start all over again."

"So you like Jack as a friend or something more?"

"Well…"

"Come on Carly you can tell me, you're my best friend."

"Oh, alright! Yes, I like…no I love Jack. I want to tell him but I'm afraid. I mean Mina and Stephanie are after Jack too. What if he chooses Mina or Stephanie and not me?"

"You won't know if you try."

"I think it over."

"Okay, gotta go. Before I go can you come to the party that the boys and the twins have planned? Please."

"Okay."

Carly and Akiza said goodbye and Akiza was still wandering around the mall and went to a music store. She was thinking about what she had talked with Carly. She's right, if I don't tell him what I feel for him…oh I don't even want to know. She wanted to know what song she can sing to him. What is that? She went over and heard someone singing. When the singer was done singing, Akiza went up to her and asked her what she just sang.

"I sang 'All I want for Christmas is You' by Mariah Carey. It's beautiful song to sing. I remember when I sang this song to my boyfriend and he loved it. It's about a girl not wanting any presents and all she wants is the boy of her dreams. You should see the lyrics."

"Thank you. You just gave me the best idea."

Akiza left the music store and went home immediately. When she arrived home, she went up to her room and looked up the song on the computer. She found the song and read over the lyrics. This is great. It's exactly what I want.

A/N: Day 2 will be posted shortly. I have writer's block for "Dare to Dream" and "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun", but I'm still working on it. Kindly review.
