AN: I sorta got a little lazy so I put one of the shots from ABC'S of Love here. -_-' But I hope you enjoy anyway. ^^


Twelve Days of Christmas

Day 10

On the tenth day of Christmas,

My true love gave to me:

Ten lords a-leaping


Candy Cane

Lelouch had a feeling this was for the peppermint incident. Suzaku never let him down for that, which is probably why he was slowly and tantalizingly licking the candy cane the way he was right now.

Lelouch sighed. It really wasn't fair, especially when other guys were eyeing Suzaku like a piece of meat.

Screw it. Lelouch thought and marched over to Suzaku. He slung an arm around Suzaku's waist and kissed his cheek.

"Let's get out of here Kitten." He whispered.

Suzaku chuckled. His breath felt cold and smelled of peppermint. "Jealous Lu?"

Lelouch smirked, "Always Darling." He said. "And I'm getting you back for this."

Suzaku smirked in return, "Do your best Lelouch."

Oh he definitely would.

Charity

This was for charity. Lelouch reminded himself for the umpteenth time. Another annoyingly blushing and giggling girl sat on his lap and wrapped her arms around him. Lelouch cracked another painted smile as Rivalz took the picture

This was the last time he let Milly coerce him into playing the role of Santa. In fact he wouldn't have been in this position if Suzaku, the damned idiot, hadn't been so naïve and if Milly wasn't such a bi—

"Smile Lelouch!" Milly yelled.

Lelouch grinded his teeth and smiled at the camera. There was a flash, and the girl got off. Only to be replaced by another one.

This was the last time he'd save Suzaku's sorry butt.

(It wasn't true, but Lelouch wished it was. Oh if only Lelouch wasn't so hopelessly in love with the stupid firebird.)

Thankfully he wasn't wearing a beard. Only the red and white trimmed shirt and pants and of course the classical Santa hat.

"Just a few more Lelouch." Suzaku said consolingly as he walked over to fix an out of place decoration.

"You know you owe me big right?" Lelouch growled lowly so no one could hear them.

"I'm fully aware, and I'll pay any price."

"Any?"

"Any."

Lelouch smiled indulgently to himself. Perhaps helping charity wasn't such a bad thing after all.

New Additions

"We seem to be getting bigger each year." Lelouch said as he placed a teddy bear in the crib.

"That just makes it more fun doesn't it?" Suzaku replied as he absently rocked on the rocking chair.

"Yes, but we are going to have four kids now." Lelouch said.

"Are you worried about money?" Suzaku asked.

Lelouch scoffed, "Don't be absurd." He said, "I just think that four kids are a lot to handle."

Suzaku paused and looked at his husband. "Lelouch," Suzaku started, "Are you scared you'll start neglecting Hiro and Rin."

"It's—It's not that I'm worried—" Lelouch stuttered. "It's just a…passing thought."

Suzaku smiled and said, "I think you'll have more than enough love to go around. Even with our new additions."

Lelouch paused and muttered something that sounded like "of course," but Suzaku didn't say anything. He just smiled and rocked away on the chair as he rubbed his pregnant belly.

Lights

Suzaku heard the tinkling of lights and Lelouch's heavy footsteps enter the house.

"Looks like Daddy finally got the lights on." Suzaku said to the twins he was carrying inside.

Lelouch entered the living room with a tangle of lights and cord wrapping around him. His hair had twigs and snow in it, and he did not look happy.

"I got them on." Lelouch grumbled.

"I know." Suzaku said, "I saw you on the news."

Mommy's Day Off

"What is this?" Suzaku asked.

"It's a ticket to the onsen of course." Kaguya said cheerfully.

"Why are you giving it to me though?"

"Because you need a Mommy's day off." Milly cut in. "Now chop chop, I already had Lelouch pack your bags for you."

"Lelouch?"

"Yeah, he was the one who suggested it." Kaguya answered.

Suzaku frowned and turned to see Lelouch struggling with a large suitcase.

"How long are we going to be there exactly?" Suzaku asked Lelouch.

"Oh just two days." He answered

"Then why does it look like I'll be going for a week?"

Lelouch huffed, or maybe he was just trying to catch his breath, "It's better to be prepared."

Suzaku frowned, "Am I being too moody again?" he asked. "Is that why you want me gone?" Suzaku started tearing up and Lelouch quickly went over and hugged him.

"No no no!" Lelouch said quickly, "You just seemed tired and I thought maybe you should take a day or two off from all the baby planning."

Suzaku sniffed, "Are you just telling me that to make me feel better?"

"Of course not." Lelouch answered sincerely. "You've just been working really hard on the baby rooms, and you always seem so tired when I get home. So, I just wanted you to take a break."

Suzaku frowned, "But who's going to finish the baby room?"

"I will." Lelouch puffed.

Suzaku looked at him skeptically, "No really, who's going to do it?"

Lelouch rolled his eyes, "I have great designing skills."

"I don't doubt your designing skills," Suzaku said, "But I seriously doubt your painting and moving skills."

"I'm not that bad."

"Need I remind you what happened when you tried to paint Hiro's room?"

"…"

"The point is," Lelouch said. "You're taking a vacation, and I'll stay home and finish everything up."

"Really?"

"Really."

Suzaku sighed, "Well if I must."

Lelouch rolled his eyes, "Only you would have to be forced to take a vacation."

Suzaku chuckled. "Just make sure you don't end up destroying all my hard work in the baby room."

"Of course I won't."

Suzaku smiled and kissed Lelouch's cheek. "Thank you Lulu."

"I pay for a great onsen trip and a kiss on the cheek is all I get?"

"You'll get something else when I get back."

Lelouch smirked, "I guess I can wait."

Penguins

"Lelouch why are there so many penguins here?" Suzaku asked as he went into the baby room.

"Because I have found that there are three main animals that all Asians like." Lelouch said.

Suzaku paused and raised an eyebrow, "Okay I'll bit, what are they?"

"Well obviously penguins for one." Lelouch replied as he gestured to the various penguin items. "Then there are the pandas and turtles. I also have a theory that Asians really like giant marshmallow creatures."

Suzaku sighed, "So why aren't there any pandas or turtles?"

"Because all the damn stores only have freaking PENGUINS!" Lelouch exclaimed as he threw a poor penguin to the wall.

Suzaku sighed and rubbed Lelouch's shoulder. "You don't take the holiday stress very well do you?"

Secret Santa

Suzaku knew immediately who put the basket in his locker. In fact he would bet all his savings on it.

"You're my secret Santa aren't you?" Suzaku asked Lelouch as they sat on the roof.

Lelouch smirked, "Of course."

"You weren't even trying were you?"

"Nope."

"You just wanted people to see that I'm in a relationship didn't you?"

Lelouch smiled, "Of course." Then he asked, "So the basket of lingerie, lube, and bubble baths kept them away?"

"I think that the pants that said "Taken" across the butt gave the message away."

"Good."

Hats

It just took one look and Lelouch was scampering towards the door. Unfortunately, Milly was far faster when she was motivated (i.e. when Lelouch was about to be embarrassed), and so the jingling piece of fake fur was place atop his head.

"I don't like this." Lelouch said.

"Oh but everyone is wearing them." Milly said.

Lelouch was tempted to say the usual, "if everyone jumps off a cliff would you?", but then he realized that Milly would obviously be leading the run off the cliff, and dragging a very reluctant vice-president behind her.

Also not everyone has one. In fact Suzaku (the jerk), who was smiling at him, was wearing reindeer antlers.

Lelouch did not want the jingling hat. He demanded the reindeer antlers.

"Aw don't be such a Grinch Lulu." Suzaku tried to console.

Lelouch scoffed, "I wouldn't be such a Grinch if Milly gave me reindeer antlers instead of these jingling monstrosities."

Suzaku paused, "Do you—"

"Yes, I know." Lelouch sighed, "I sound utterly ridiculous. The jolliness kills my brain cells."

Snow

White flecks fell softly on the ground and on the two children running up the endless stairs to the shrine. A black-haired boy fell on the tenth step and panted harshly on the speckled stone. A cheery brunette laughed, "Oh Lulu it's a miracle you were able to climb these steps with Nunally all on your own."

"Shut-up Suzaku I exercise the more important muscles."

"Like your mouth?" Suzaku teased.

"My brain you infidel!" Lelouch yelled. Suzaku laughed and hopped towards his fallen friend. He outstretched his hand and smiled, "C'mon Lu, I'll help you up."

Lelouch grumbled, but he took Suzaku's hand and dusted any specks of snow on him. "I don't understand how you can like this stuff." Lelouch grumbled.

Suzaku smiled brightly, his cheeks flushed with a healthy red that made him look (as reluctantly as Lelouch wanted to admit) cute.

"I love the snow." Suzaku said. "It looks so pretty on the ground, especially when it's fresh and so white."

Lelouch scoffed and looked down at the blanketed ground; well he supposed it was a little pretty, but not enough to make him want to stand in it like the smiling idiot next to him.

"C'mon, let's get inside before your royal hinny freezes." Suzaku laughed.

Lelouch threw him a glare and a (pathetic) snowball which crumbled to pieces before it even reached his target. Suzaku laughed and ran down the stairs as Lelouch threw another flurry of snow at the brunette. Thus a snowball fight ensued for almost an hour until Tohdoh and Genbu hoisted the two on their shoulders and took them inside.

"So," Suzaku smiled as he turned to his friend on Tohdoh's shoulder, "how do you like the snow now?"

Lelouch smiled, "It's alright."

Ten Men Bonding

It was Gino's stupid idea for him to go to a bar and have "male bonding time" with eight other guys.

"Y'know Lelouch I don' know how you does it." An intoxicated Tamaki slurred.

"How I do what?" Lelouch asked.

"Have four kids man!" Tamaki exclaimed, "I mean, even Ohgi don't have that many babies."

Ohgi flushed. "Just what are you saying?"

"Yah like hav'in sex with ur wife!" Tamaki laughed loudly.

"Haha that was a good one Tamaki." Rivalz said as he patted his back. "But s'rously man, I love sex with Milly but I don't go havin' four kids."

"If I had my way I wouldn't have let them even have one." Tohdoh grumbled.

"Amen to that." Rolo glared.

"Are you even allowed here?" Jeremiah asked.

"I'm of age damnit!" Rolo exclaimed.

"It seems that when it comes to the bedroom Lelouch has absolutely no control." Schniezel said as he sipped his martini.

"Don't point your fingers at Nii-san!" Rolo defended.

"So you're saying you can see Suzaku having the voracious sexual appetite?" Schniezel asked.

"…not really."

"I can't wait to make their matching costumes." Clovis sighed. "We can make them twin baby pandas!" he squealed. "Or better, a two-headed dragon like a Zippleback!"

Gino laughed, "Aren't you glad you had some male-bonding time?"

Lelouch glared at the blond. "No."
