Christmas cheer

The smell of freshly baked cookies drifted into the air. Teddie made her way to the chairman's kitchen and found him making Christmas cookies with Yukki. Yukki spotted her "hi Teddie. What brings you here?" she asked
Teddie grinned "I was taking a walk while everyone was asleep and I smelt the cookies" she said. Kaien laughed and handed her one. She ate it happily and helped them put frosting on the rest. Once they were done Teddie grabbed some sugar cubes and three extra cookies making Yukki curious "who are those for?" she asked pointing to the sugar cubes. Teddie smiled and put a finger to her lips "for Lilly Chan" she said as she went out the door.

There was very little snow so thankfully Teddie didn't have to wade through it. She ran to the stable in the field and went inside feeling some warmth from a small fire that the stableman had made. The stableman's name was Tamaki. He was a very sweet man who let Teddie take care of Lilly with him and Zero.
Tamaki smiled at her as she handed him the cookies "ohhh they smell good Teddie. Thank you" He said. Teddie grinned and skipped over to Lilly. The horse nuzzled her nose into Teddie's neck as a greeting
"hiya Lilly" she said
`hello Teddie` she replied in her mind
Teddie gave her the sugar cubes and rubbed her nose. She had her guitar with her. She felt like singing something Christmassy so she played winter wonderland and sang to it. Lilly loved to hear the teenager sing. It made her feel happy and loved.
Teddie spent the whole day with Lilly. Zero even came by and stayed to listen to her guitar playing.
The night had fallen and Teddie had drifted off to sleep with Lilly lying next to her. Her jacket was over her keeping her warm. Tamaki gently shook the girls shoulder and woke her up. Teddie thanked him and headed off back to the dorms. She found that everyone was at class so she went into her and Kaname's room and changed into some sleep wear and snuggled up into bed…

(3am)
"finally! No more studying for three whole weeks!" Aido cried as he collapsed on the couch. Kaname shook his head and made his way upstairs. As usual he found his girl lying asleep on their bed. He took off his blazer and tie and loosened the first few buttons. He kicked off his shoes and lay next to Teddie. She was whimpering in her sleep again meaning the nightmares were back. He held her close. In a few days it would just be him and her. They were both going to New York together as he promised for Christmas vacation.
Teddie whimpered more and it soon turned to tears in her eyes. He kissed the top of her head and rocked her back and fourth a bit, whispering comporting words to her. She calmed down and slept peacefully as did he.

(a few days later)
Kaname sighed in relaxation. He and Teddie were on the plane to New York in the 1st class cabin. He was very excited on the inside. He held Teddie's hand and looked into her blue eyes "I know you'll love America. Especially the theatres" she said.
`attention passengers fasten your seatbelts we will be landing in New York in ten minutes`
Kaname and Teddie fastened their seatbelts and sat peacefully till they landed.

"wow! What white blanket!" Teddie cried excitingly. New York was completely covered in snow. Kaname smiled and picked up their two suitcases. Teddie put her fingers to her mouth and whistled loudly "TAXI!" She yelled. A yellow cab stopped beside them and they climbed in and snuggled up to keep warm "where to love birds?" The driver asked.
"Plasma Hotel driver" Kaname answered.

The hotel room was magnificent. (like the one in home alone 2)
Teddie and Kaname set their bags on the floor and lay on the bed together and gave a relaxing sigh "what a flight" Teddie said. Kaname nodded in agreement. Teddie got up "if you'll excuse me I need a shower" she said. She kissed him on the cheek and went in the bathroom.
Kaname took one in the other bathroom and checked the time. It was five so he decided to take Teddie out to dinner.
(Later)
The two lovers sat in quite a posh restaurant. Teddie was wearing a pair of black skinny jeans, a nice top and her hair was curled and put half up half down. She was a bit out of place and felt uneasy about it.
Kaname noticed this "are you alright?" he asked. Teddie blushed "well…not that I don't appreciate this. But um it's…"
"Not really your style" Kaname finished. Teddie hung her head down and mumbled a yes. Kaname chuckled and put down his menu "to tell you the truth, me neither" he admitted
Teddie looked up at him "is that so?" she asked slyly. He nodded "sometime I would like to try New York food instead of" he looked at the menu " Cooked snails" he said. Teddie made a grossed out face, she grabbed her coat "come on. I know where we can go" she said as she stood up. Kaname pulled on his coat and linked his arm with hers. They went out into the colourful streets of New York and walked up the snow filled sidewalk.
Delicious smells filled Kaname's nose and Teddie's. The stopped in front of a Pizza parlour and went in. They shared a normal cheese Pizza and chatted the night away.

The couple returned to the hotel after a great night in the town. They even got a few Christmas presents.
While Teddie wasn't looking Kaname slipped a small bit of mistletoe at the head of the bed. When they were both in their sleep wear they hopped into the king size bed. Teddie noticed the small plant at the head of the bed "how did?…"
She saw Kaname smirk, she rolled her eyes "you sly vampire" she said as she kissed his lips. The kiss soon became more passionate. They kissed to their hearts content as the snow drifted down from the sky outside.

(Christmas eve)
The couple were still in New York. They were supposed to leave four days before Christmas but the flight was cancelled and wouldn't leave until after Christmas so they had another few days to themselves.
It was night fall so they were snuggled up together with some hot coco. Teddie thought it would be funny to put cream on his nose so she did. Kaname gave her a playful glare and put some on her nose.
She huffed and turned away from him. Kaname chuckled and licked the cream off her nose. She turned and did the same to him. They both laughed softly and stared into the fire and talked.
Kaname handed her a small box "merry Christmas Teddie" he said. Teddie gave him a funny look "it's a little early isn't it?" she asked. Kaname chuckled "I know but I wanted to give it to you now" he said. She shrugged and opened the box, she gasped silently.
"Kaname. It's beautiful" she said as he took the ring from the box and slipped it on her finger. It was a amethyst stone with small diamonds on a silver band. She handed him a box. He opened it and smiled at the gift. "cute" he said as he held up a black sweater with a Santa clause on it. Teddie giggled "I thought it would look good on you" she said. Kaname slipped it on "it's very cosy" he said. He wrapped his arm around his girlfriend and nuzzled her neck. Teddie reached over and flicked on the radio. They sat and listened to the Christmas carols. One got her attention so she sang along to it.
Distant stars, at home up in the heavens. Wonder what they see, are they watching me?
Christmas Star, you spin your strands of silver. What a sight to see, are you there to guide me?
(chorus)
Star light, shine bright, see me through the dark night.
Light mine, half way;
Guide me home for Christmas day
Midnight stars, they sail the sky in silence, Hearing all they see, are they hearing me?
Christmas Star, you watch the world so wisely ;At my journey's end, will you be my true friend?
(chorus)
Star light, shine bright see me through the dark night,
Light mine, half way;
Guide me home for Christmas day
Christmas Star light, See me on my way
Light mine, half way;
Guide me home for Christmas Day.
The fire died down and all you could see in the christmasy scene was the glow of the dying fire, the music playing and the two lovers fast asleep on the couch in eachothers arms.
