Author's Note: I know that a lot of people do decorations a lot earlier than now but in my house we always put them up around now. If it was up to me, they would be up on the 1st of December. So, that's why decorations haven't been a prompt until now.

Day 12 - Decorations

Purr. Purr. Purr.

Raven's legs were always his favourite place to reside when he was in cat form. Maybe it was because they were bare and smooth. Maybe it was because she was his girlfriend and the closeness was intoxicating.

Maybe it was because she always seemed to inadvertently tease him with how she smelt of fresh rain with a hint of catnip. He couldn't help but wonder at that.

Beast Boy wriggled and stretched his limbs which prompted Raven to give him a tiny stroke behind his ears, something that in turn, caused a rumble that reverberated through his small, furry chest.

Ah, this was bliss. This was the life. This was-

"Hey ya'll! Guess what today is!" Cyborg hollered as he came lumbering into the common room.

Interrupted.

With an irked meow, Beast Boy peeked open an eye. He slowly sat up and flicked his tail along Raven's hip, signalling that he felt disturbed.

Smirking, Raven gave him a scratch upon his head before she turned towards Cyborg along with Robin and Starfire who were sharing pancakes in the kitchen.

"Please, what day is today, Cyborg?" Starfire asked, eyeing the big box in his arms carefully.

With a broad grin, the cybernetic teen spun the cardboard box within his hands so that they could see the front labelled, "Christmas decorations".

Beast Boy instantly perked up and morphed back into his human form.

"Duuude! Alright! It's finally time for decorations!" He chirped, jumping over the back of the sofa.

Starfire's eyes sparkled before she too, began to float off of her chair and over to her team mates.

Cyborg dumped the box of ornaments down, allowing Beast Boy to start searching through them whilst he dragged more boxes into the common room.

As soon as the resident Princess witnessed the box labelled, "Tinsel" she inhaled sharply, and dove straight on into the box.

Robin jerked, taking a few steps over to the box his girlfriend had just flown into. He halted as she reappeared, green and silver tinsel wrapped around her neck and shoulders.

"Oh! I am full of the joy! The decorations are one of my most favourite parts of the Christmas holiday!" Starfire commented, lifting out of the box with a piece of golden tinsel wrapped around her ankle.

She dropped down back beside Robin who had a disbelieving smile on his face, "You've got a bit of tinsel... just... everywhere."

Starfire giggled, taking the silver string of tinsel from around her own shoulders and draping it around Robin's instead.

Cyborg clapped his hands together as he finished bringing forth the number of boxes full of all kinds of Christmassy decorations.

"Alright, guys. Rob, today I'm overthrowin' ya as leader."

Robin shrugged and sipped some of his coffee, "Fine by me. Lead on, Cy."

With a grin, Cyborg pointed at Raven and Beast Boy, "Raven. I want you to put up the ceiling decorations that hang up in here considering you'll do it the fastest."

Raven rolled her eyes but headed for the shiny, 3D spinning and creased decorations.

"B, I want you to stick the paper snowflakes to the window as well as spraying the fake snow around the edges,"

Beast Boy saluted his best friend, "Aye aye!" He confirmed, taking the big spray bottles from Cyborg.

Turning to the other couple in the room, Cyborg smiled as Starfire straightened up a little.

"Star, I need you to hang up the lights around the tower, a'ight?"

Starfire scooped up the thick, outside rope lights in her arms.

"I shall not fail!" She told him,

Cyborg winked at her before turning to Robin who put his mug of coffee down and crossed his arms over his chest with an expectant facial expression.

"Rob, you're on tree decorating duty. Make our green friend shine up like a new penny."

Robin nodded and gently began untangling the tinsel from Starfire who merely stood still whilst he loosened it from her limbs.

Soon enough, they were all busy with their assigned tasks. The atmosphere was light and fun with an assortment of Christmas songs, jubilantly playing in the background.

When the decorations went up, it was a big symbol for them that Christmas had started. Something about having sparkly tinsel around the tree or fairy lights draped from one edge of the ceiling to the other was simply enchanting around this time of year, especially with the light snow falling just outside of the windows.

Beast Boy grinned and happily waved to Starfire as she soared back and forth, around the tower until she had the rope lights pinned to the angles and edges of the tower.

Slowly but surely, their home became the pinnacle of festiveness. Lights were draped from edge to edge of the ceiling with white and blue sparkly hanging shapes dotted in the empty spaces.

The walls had bits of holly and Christmas bell decorations pinned to them with Starfire's handmade "Titan" paper chain on one wall whilst Robin's snowflake paper chain was hung on the other.

With the windows owning a snow aesthetic, what with paper snowflakes stuck to it and fake snow sprayed around the edges, it gave the area a very wintery appearance indeed.

There was ribbon wrapped around the counter edges of the kitchen with Christmas themed ornaments and items atop of the surface.

Lastly stood the tree, which was all but finished aside from one last piece. Robin stood before it, hands on hips as he surveyed the tree.

Starfire appeared beside him and quietly gasped, "Oh, Robin... it looks most beautiful."

He flashed her a smirk, "Thanks. There's one part missing though."

She raised an eyebrow at him, only to be rewarded with her answer. Robin lifted the star up to her and she beamed at him.

"Seems only fitting that you put the star on top, Star." Cyborg announced from behind them.

Giggling, Starfire took the glittering star and floated up to the very top, carefully putting the last yet best ornament in place.

As she lowered herself back to the ground, Beast Boy and Raven wandered over together, both glancing around the room.

Cyborg brushed his hands together and grinned,

"Perfect."
