Disclaimers: I don't own any material relating to Kingdom Hearts but these drabbles. This 50 drabbles challenge belongs to Terra ForceXIII.

A/N: I'm not a twin, but I have experienced the same frustrations Vanitas has concerning presents on Christmas Day when I was younger. I have a sister who's one year younger than me, but I still got the same things she did. Talk about individualizing right? :P LOL It's only my aunts and uncles who do this, but come on! XD
Light hints of Sora/Kairi and very light hints of Vanitas/Xion here I guess. And yes, this is before Vanitas knew of Xion if anyone is confused. :P

Thanks for reading and reviewing! Please enjoy and R&R!

:: Birthday ::

"Vanitas! Look!" Sora grinned and held up a dark blue jacket. "It's from Aunt Rinoa! What'd you get?"

"…Probably the same thing, only in a different color," Vanitas deadpanned.

Sora furrowed his eyebrows. "Well, open your present! Don't spoil the surprise!"

Vanitas sarcastically asked, "What 'surprise?' We always get the same thing."

"Not true! Kairi gave us different things."

"She's your girlfriend. Of course she's going to give us different things."

Sora remained quiet and Vanitas took that as victory.

Every year, almost everyone bought Vanitas and Sora the same birthday gift. Vanitas thought those people were stupid because he and Sora were obviously different. The raven haired twin hated his own birthday because of this. Why couldn't he be born a few years older or younger than his twin? At least then, he wouldn't keep getting the same things Sora did.

"…Oh yeah!" Sora handed Vanitas a small box. "Here!"

Vanitas raised an eyebrow. "What is this?"

"From Xion."

"…Who?"

Sora smiled. "Kairi's cousin! She got me a keychain!"

"…Does she even know who I am?" Vanitas asked.

"She knows you're my twin, but that hasn't stopped her from being a nice person," Sora joked before running off into another room.

Vanitas stared at the box and shrugged. Opening it, he was expecting a keychain. Instead, looking back at him was a stylish necklace with an emblem. He was surprised. This was the first time a stranger…gave him a birthday gift that was different from Sora's…

…Kairi's cousin, huh?
