On Christmas Eve...
Caitlin woke up slowly as Natsu paced around her sleeping bag. The other four Ham-Hams were just waking up.
"C'mon, CC, c'mon!" Natsu ushered as Caitlin raked her fingers through her hair. "Whoa...CC, look at you! You have your hair down!"
Caitlin stood up and felt her hair. Sure enough, they were out of their usual pigtails, and her brown hair was cascading down past her shoulders and her bangs had come undone and floppy. Caitlin brushed her fingers through her brown hair and glanced in the mirror. She didn't remember the last time she wore her hair down in public, but maybe today...
"Whoa, CC, you never have your hair down!" Kayla exclaimed.
"It looks almost as good as pigtails...," Heather remarked.
"Yeah, almost," Lila agreed.
"You almost look like a whole different hamster!" Megan noted.
"I do?" Caitlin inquired as she continued to look at herself. "Do you think Boss will like it?"
"He'll love it!" Natsu rejoined.
"I think he'll love it, too," Heather said.
"Yup," Kayla replied.
Caitlin smiled as she continued to brush her hair. "I guess I do look greatchu...," she whispered.
"Oh, yeah, I almost forgot!" Natsu said. "Look outside!"
The six Ham-Hams walked to the nearest window and glanced outside. Outside it looked like a winter wonderland, for it was snowing very hard. Their eyes sparkled as they watched the falling snow, for it was now a white Christmas.
"White Christmas!" Lila shouted.
"Yeeshoo!" Caitlin responded. "This will be great...sleigh ride tonight!"
"And tonight, we'll be delivering gifts to all of the good hams of the town," Megan remarked.
"Yee," Kayla replied.
