Lyra look!' Lynn squealed loudly when she woke up in her dad's arms, and saw the massive pile under the tree. 'Santa's been!' Lyra came running down the stairs, eyes wide in excitement. 'Daddy! Mommy!' she yelled up the stairs. Sarah came down, eyes tired and red. 'Urgh... its seven in the morning girls...'

Lucifer just sat there, watching them with mild interest. Christmas... Christ the saviour is born (!) yeah... whatever.

Lyra then frowned. 'Hey- where's daddy?' she asked her mom. She laughed. 'He won't get out of bed- why don't you and Lynny try and get him up?'

They smirked at each other, and ran up the stairs.

They pushed open the bedroom door and sniggered- all you could see of him was his bare foot sticking out from under the covers. Lyra poked it; her dad growled and pulled it under, with a hiss of. 'Go away!'

Lyra and Lynn smirked at each other. Lyra nipped back into the loo and got a glass of water, then returned. Lynn grabbed the covers. She nodded, and then yanked them off.

'Go away!' he yelled, turning away. 'Get your lazy ass up!' Lynn demanded, and Lyra giggled. His response was silence. The girls exchanged glances- well, they'd warned him.

Lyra chucked the glass of freezing water at him. He yelled and fell of the bed. Lyra and Lynn couldn't stop laughing as his ragged and soaked head popped up from the other side, a scowl on his face. 'What was that for?' he demanded.

Lyra shrugged. 'You should have gotten up when we asked.' He grumbled and gave in.

Not too long after, Gabriel trudged down the stairs; his hair soaked and messed up. Sarah snorted in laughter when she saw him all bedraggled. He pointed at her, a scowl upon his face. 'Not a single word.' He warned, but plonked himself down next to her, then looked at his brother. 'Shall we open presents now?'

Lucifer scowled. 'I hate Christmas.' Gabriel pouted, then grinned as he got up and retrieved something from behind the sofa. It was revealed to be a bright red Santa hat, topped with a big white pom-pom on the end. He went over to Lucifer and offered it him. He stared at it, face screwing up in distaste. 'What is that thing?' He said, still not taking it. Gabe grinned. 'It's called a Santa hat dimwit.'

Lucifer just scowled. 'Keep that thing away from me.' Gabriel grinned and advanced on him, hat poised. Lucifer growled. 'Don't you-!' Gabriel struck and pulled it over his head, and fixed it there so Lucifer couldn't take it off. No matter how hard he pulled, the hat stayed on. Lucifer folded his arms sulkily as Gabriel and the others started laughing.

Gabriel sighed, and then turned to the presents. 'What do you say we get started?' he grinned- he could smell the chocolate hidden in the paper for him. Lyra and Lynn nodded excitedly, and then dived in.

'Hey Lynny- what did you ask Santa for?' Gabriel asked as she tore apart the paper. She giggled. 'A little brother or sister.'

Everyone was deadly silent, then they stole hesitant looks at Lucifer, who had frozen halfway through trying to pull the hat off again. 'Uh Lynny-? I don't think you'll get that.' Gabriel said weakly, trying not to laugh at his brother's horrified expression. Lynn giggled. 'I was joking!' Lucifer sighed in relief and shook his head.

Gabriel snorted, and then turned to Lyra. 'Do you like your presents?'

Lyra nodded enthusiastically, ripping open the box containing her new Wii. Gabriel smirked, and then snapped his fingers- it set itself up. 'Hey Lucy- bet I can beat you at Sonic racers!' He grinned, Lucifer frowned. 'What?' Gabriel sighed. 'You really don't know anything, do you?'

Lucifer growled, and then grabbed one of the Wii remotes. 'Bring it on then little brother.' He smirked. Gabe laughed. 'The devil playing on a Wii on Christmas morning... that's just not right!'

Half hour later

'Oh yeah! Who's the man?' Gabriel said smugly as he beat Lucifer. He threw the remote in temper. 'You cheated!' he yelled back. Gabe stuck out his tongue. 'Only a little.' Lucifer scowled.

'Look!' Lyra suddenly squealed, pointing out the window. Everyone looked- it was snowing pretty heavily. Gabriel grinned. 'Who's up for a snowball fight?'

Outside, everyone- well, except Lucifer, who was wrapped up in about five coats, because he moaned it was way too cold. He was stood under a tree, out the way of everybody.

But Gabriel wasn't having any of that.

'First one to hit Lucy in the face wins!' he yelled, advancing on him. Lucifer's eyes widened, and he backed away as everyone ran towards him. A sudden gust of wind swept through the clearing, creating a mini snowstorm that nearly knocked everyone over- well, Gabriel did. He lay there in the snow, a scowl on his face. 'Err... this is cold?' he laughed.

The other s shook there heads and sighed as he made a snow angel. 'You wish (!)' Sarah snorted. Lyra sighed. 'Daddy... you're so silly sometimes.' He grinned. 'Better get used to it Ly.'

Last update for tonight :) two more chapters up tomorrow- might do Boxing Day too. Not sure yet- got some new ideas. Hope you all liked the Christmas special! I dare you to look at a picture of Lucy after reading this, and try not to visualize him in a Santa hat... Lmao! X Nic
