One morning, Elina was asleep in bed. Her 'siblings' were right outside the door, tails swishing and mischievous grins overtook their lips, Victoria reached her paw up and slowly and carefully turned the doorknob, she didn't want to disturb her sister...or did she?

"Now!" she said, all six squealed and jumped on Elina, who awoke with a squeal and a jump, "Guys!" she said, laughing, "I was sleeping." she said, "We know, but look outside!" Electra said. Elina stood up and opened her curtains, it was snowing, which was nothing new, but it looked...pretty for some reason today. "Wow..." she whispered, "Come on, let's go outside and play!" Etcetera said excitedly, dashing out of the room, her siblings following suit, Elina threw on a fresh set of clothes before throwing her coat on, then remembered something.

She then jumped on a bed, "Bryn, Bryn, get up!" she said, only to be met with a groan, "Babe, trying to sleep here..." Bryn muttered, "Come on, it's snowing and I wanna go outside!" she said. He sighed, he didn't have a choice. His baby always got what she wanted. "Be up and out in a few..." he said, this seemed to satisfy Elina for she ran out and joined her siblings who dove into the snow, squealing. "This is so fun!" Etcetera said, rolling around in it like a pig in mud.

After a few minutes, Elina noticed something was missing, "Vicki? where are you?" she asked, "Over here!" Victoria's voice said, making Elina look around, but she just couldn't see her sister, "Where?" she asked, "Here!" Victoria said again, Elina saw a pair of eyes looking at her in the snow, making her chuckle. "There you are." she said, brushing the snow off the kit and scooping her up, making Victoria giggle.

"Alright, I'm here." Bryn said, coming out in his coat and gloves, Elina smiled before gently putting Victoria down, then tackling him in what was supposed to be a hug. "Aah!" Bryn said as they tumbled into the snow, making Elina giggle. "Babe, I'm not in the mood to get wet, I just woke up." he said, "Sorry." Elina said, getting off him...only to be tackled by him, making her squeal. "Couldn't resist." he chuckled.

"SNOWBALL FIGHT!" Electra said, throwing a snowball at her tomfriend, "Hey!" he said, throwing one back at her, Jemima squealed as she barely managed to dodge a snowball thrown by Victoria, soon they were all hurling snowballs at each other and laughing, Elina couldn't remember such a time she had fun in the snow.

Later on, they went inside to warm up and have some hot cocoa, Elina sprayedwhipped cream on hers, then took a sip, it slightly scorched her mouth but she didn't mind, it got whipped cream on her nose, making Bryn take it off with his finger and lick it off, winking at her and making her blush. That's when Andrew walked in, "Good morning Bryn, Elina, kits." he said. "Hey Andrew." Bryn said, "Hi Andrew!" Elina said, the kittens mewled.

"I just wanted to inform you we're all going to town tonight to look at Christmas lights."Andrew said, this got Elina curious, she knew what Christmas was, but what was 'town'?

"What's town?" Elina asked, making Bryn raise an eyebrow, she rolled her eyes. "YOU try living in a junkyard being raised by cats who never let you go anywhere beyond a field for 17 years." she said, "Town is where humans live." Andrew said, "Oh...so we're going to humans' houses and looking at their Christmas lights?" she asked, making Andrew chuckle, "No, no, we're going to look at all the lights people hae set up on buildings." he said, "Ohh...what?" she asked, tilting her head. "You'll see later." he said.

Later, the humans were all gearing up, the cats weren't gonna get dressed, they were going as their actor's pets. "How're we getting there?" Elina asked, "Bus, it'll be here soon." Michael said, putting his gloves on, Elina nodded slowly. "You'll have a great time, Elina, the town always has great lights." Kaye said, Elina nodded again.

Just then, they heard a car honk, "Bus is here!" Andrew said, they all left, "So...car games anyone?" Fergus asked as he held Tumblebrutus, who was in cat form, on his shoulder. "We could play a guessing game." Jo Gibb said as she petted Rumpleteazer, "Uh...I'll give it a shot." Elina said shyly, "Alright, give it your best." Aeva said, "Alright, it's a uh...play, and it's by Andrew." Elina said, to which Andrew smiled, "Starlight Express?" Jacob asked, "No." she said, "Evita?" John asked, "No again." she said, Tommi glanced at his feline counterpart before smiling at her, "CATS?" he asked, "Yeah!" she said happily.

"Alright, Elina, another go?" Rosemary asked, "Ok, it's a show about these animals that sing and dance-" she said, "CATS." Rebecca said, "That's right!" Elina said.

10 minutes later...

"Alright, this one is about-"

"CATS."

"Wow, you're good!"

"It's been all you've been talking about since we left." Bryn said. It was true, all her guesses were about CATS, he knew they were her family but couldn't she ask about something else?

"We're here!" the diver said, almost everyone was relieved, anymore talk of CATS and they all would've went insane. They stepped off the bus, once Elina caught sight of town, her pupils grew to the size of dinner plates, everything looked amazing! There were people hustling and bustling, lights were on and cars were everywhere. "Wow..." she whipered, "Elina, let's go!" Bryn siad, Elina quickly caught up with them, "Alright, we'll start with downtown and see where it goes from there." Andrew said to which everyone nodded.

Elina took Bryn's hand, which made him smile and squeeze hers, all the other couples started getting affectionate as well, John and Jacob would rub noses every now and then, Munkustrap and Demeter walked close to each other, Mungojerrie and Jemima wrapped their tails around each other's, etc. It was a sweet scene and it got a few 'aww's from people.

"So, how's it feel on your first night in town?" Bryn asked Elina, "It's beautiful." she said, admiring a tree with lights on it. "Not as beautiful as you." he said, making her blush, then he noticed something, "We're under mistletoe." he said, "We're under what?" she asked, "Mistletoe, it's a plant that people use to kiss." he said, "...Huh?" she asked, tilting her head, he rolled his eyes quickly before dipping her and kissing her, she widened her eys before kissing him back, they didn't notice Tugger jump up on Bryn's back, grab it with his mouth then bring it back to Misto with a smirk, the tux smiled and rolled his eyes before kissing his mate.

Bryn and Elina finally broke the kiss off, panting a bit. "Love you..." he said, "Love you too..." she said.

"And babe?" he asked.

"Yeah?" he asked.

"Merry Christmas."


aww, wasn't that sweet? it's not much I know, but hey, think of it as my present to you guys.
