A/N Whew! This one took a while to write, that and I was distracted by a shiny object.

Oh, guess what! My Sweet 16 in coming up on December 16th! I'm so excited! I'm getting Edward's wrist-cuff and Rosalie's necklace from my mom for sure, I know because I ordered them and she said, "They have to be a birthday or Christmas present." Ugh! I can't wait that long, maybe I'll go stare at the box that they came in in her room...

Also, it seems many of you want to know the story of Emmett and the penguin, well I shall tell you it soon, dear readers, very soon.

Disclaimer- I seem to have scared Jasper off with the last one of these, so I'm on my own. I DON'T OWN TWILIGHT.

I glanced over at the clock on my bedroom nightstand from where I was sitting in front of my outdated computer composing an email to Renee, wishing her a Merry Christmas even though I would most likely talk to her on the phone the next day.

5:30, so there was still 30 minutes to go before Edward would be here to get me for Christmas Eve with his family, and I had nothing left to do.

I had already made dinner for Charlie, pepper steak and mashed potatoes, baked cookies for 'Santa,' which Charlie happily ate after dinner, wrapped all of the Cullen's presents, even hung a few last ornaments on the tree, there was absolutely nothing left to do but wait, might as well read Wuthering Heights, again.

---30 minutes later---

I heard three quick, loud raps on the door.

"I'LL GET IT!" I shouted, and began to bound down the stairs to the door. I was doing pretty good, too, that is until I missed the last step and fell on my butt.

Charlie walked into the small front door entryway just in time to see me land.

He inhaled loudly, "You okay, Bells? That looked like it hurt." Charlie asked and offered me his hand.

"S'okay," I replied, grabbing his hand, allowing him to help me up, my face flushing bright red from embarrassment, "It's not like it's the first, or last, time that happened."

Charlie let out a deep, hearty chuckle. "Guess so." He smiled. "Guess I should get the door now."

"No, that's fine Char- Dad, I'll get it, it's just Edward."

"Oh," he huffed, "Alright then." And he turned around and went back into the living room to watch TV.

That's when I opened the door, not to find Edward, but instead Alice dressed in a very sexy green Elf costume and Emmett, who was obviously trying to suppress a laugh, probably because he had heard me trip on the stairs, dressed like Santa without the beard.

I gaped, open mouthed at them.

"What," I managed to choke out, "are you wearing?!"

"You like it?" Alice chirped, and did a little spin, "I felt like really getting in the Christmas sprit this year, and since Emmett wanted to dress up as Santa, I figured what better thing to be than one of Santa's helpers!"

"O-kaaaay…" I said uncertainly, and opened the door wider so that they could come in, it would look strange if they continued to stand outside with how cold it was, and even more so because of Alice's outfit.

"OH BELLA!" Emmett practically shouted, "You should be Rudolph! You won't even have to wear a fake nose since your face is already red!"

I could feel the blush on my face turn even redder.

"Aww, you're perfect!" Emmett beamed, "Just one more little detail," he reached into his pocket and pulled out fake reindeer antlers, placing them on my head, "there. Now nobody could even tell you and the real one apart." He patted my head and I saw Charlie peek around the corner, and then his eyes widen when they landed on Alice.

Charlie walked into the now cramped entryway, "Wow, Alice you look, erm… nice." He said, flustered.

"Thank you, Charlie!" Alice hugged him, "here, I wanted to drop off this present for you."

Charlie blushed almost as red as me, "Thanks, Alice, I'll put it under the tree."

"Okay, but that means I have to come over to see you open it," she teased.

"Of course, we'd love to have you over," Charlie answered happily. My face was a mask of disbelief. Why was Alice allowed over tomorrow, but not Edward?

Alice squealed in delight, while jumping up and down, and clapping. "YEA! This will be so much fun, Bella!"

Emmett sighed, obviously annoyed that he didn't get invited as well, "Come on Alice, Rudolph, we're late, Esme said dinner would be ready by 6:05, and it's already 6:15."

Charlie looked taken aback, as if he hadn't noticed Emmett had been standing there the whole time. Come to think of it, he probably didn't, Alice's outfit was awfully eye-catching, but now that he had, he couldn't stop staring at Emmett, who was quite an eyeful as well.

Charlie looked unsure of weather he should laugh at Emmett, get his gun, or run and hide. He settled for feigning indifference.

"Well, I guess I'll see you later, Bells. Try not to stay out too late. Bye Alice, Emmett." He narrowed his eyes suspiciously when he said Emmett's name, he never did know how to feel about him, even though he had met him before. It was probably because the first time Charlie met Emmett, Emmett scooped him up in a hug, kind of a scary first impression

"Okay, bye Dad!" I said, and then grabbed my bag of presents for the Cullen's from by the door, and Alice's hand to drag her out of the door from behind me.

"Bye Chief Swan!" Emmett shouted as he closed the door behind us.

"Well that was fun," I grumbled sarcastically, "Let's not do it again."

Alice rolled her eyes.

"Well, if you thought that was fun, wait until you see this," Emmett covered my eyes and lead me out in the direction of the driveway.

"Careful, Emmett, don't let her trip," I heard Alice say from behind me.

Emmett chuckled, "I won't. Now Rudolph, on the count of three I want you to look. Ready? 1…2…3!" He took his hands off my eyes and my jaw dropped.

"Emmett!" I shouted, "What is it?!"

"It was the Jeep, but for tonight it's my sleigh!" He said, delighted.

Oh. My. God. It didn't even look like the same car, it looked like a sleigh with a roof and wheels. It even had a stuffed reindeer attached to the hood that looked like it was taking off for flight.

"I wanted to get real reindeer," Emmett lamented, "but Jasper has a thing for them and I was afraid he'd eat them."

Alice 'hmpf-ed, "He would not have, now can we go, I want to give Bella her presents already!"

I groaned and Emmett sighed.

"Alright, everyone in the sleigh, Rudolph in the back." He said, as we all climbed into the 'sleigh.' "Wait, you don't think Jasper will eat her, do you? I mean he tried once before, and now she has the antlers and everything…" he trailed off.

"EMMETT! SHUT UP!" Alice and I yelled at the same time.

"Fine," he huffed, "Let's go."


A/N REVIEW! OR ELSE THE VAMPIRE PENGUINS WILL COME AFTER YOU!
Oh! And tell me in the reviews what is the weirdest or worst present you ever got for Christmas, and what you want to Cullen's to get from and give to Bella for Christmas!

Pictures for Emmett's and Alice's outfits up in my profile.

I now have to go and finish my Christmas list, my madre has been hounding me for it (she has no idea what to get me without one) and when I was writing this I was 'technically' supposed to be doing that.
