December 15th, 10 days :D :D :D :D


Ben, Mal, Evie, Lonnie, Doug, Carlos, Jane and Jay were out with the former King and Queen to chose a Christmas tree for their castle, they were saddened to hear that the VK's had never celebrated Christmas and they wanted to help make it the best first Christmas ever for them.

"So you get a new tree every year?" Mal asked as they walked through the tree farm.

"Yeah, it's nice to go and pick that one tree that you feel is just perfect for your house," Belle said as she looked up at one.

"I remember when I was about six there was this miniature tree and I loved it so much that they brought it for my room, later we planted it in the garden," Ben said walling beside Mal.

"I remember that you said something about how trees had feelings, and how this tree named Timothy would be sad and lonely, that if we did not take him home with us he would cry," Adam said. "Then you cried because you did not want that tree to be lonely,"

"Awe benny boo," Evie joked squishing his cheeks.

"Thanks dad, guys just remember I was six," Ben said.

"Yeah yeah sure," Lonnie said.

Ben rolled his eyes playfully as they continued walking through the farm, there were trees that were so wide extra long tinsel would have to be used and some so small that Doug was sure were still baby trees.

"Can't see the one yet," Ben said as he continued looking.

"Where'd Jay go?" Lonnie asked when she saw he was no longer with then.

"I don't know," Carlos said as he looked around.

"Jay," Mal called.

"Jay," Adam shouted, hoping he was not lost.

"I'm over here," Jay called, the others walked over to where he was.

"Thought we lost you," Lonnie said as she gave him a hug.

"Sorry just found this tree," Jay said as he gestured to the tree they were stood in front of.

The tree Jay had found was about eight feet tall and not to wide that extra long tinsel would have to be used, it had plenty of branches to add baubles and other ornaments on.

"I think you have just found the perfect tree there Jay," Adam said as he walked around it. "Yup, Ben, Jay could you help me cut it down you guys watch yourselves so it doesn't fall on you and get the trolley ready,"

Everybody set to work Ben and Adam held the tree steady while Jay smoothly sawed the trunk, the others got the trolley into position minding themselves so the tree did not fall on them.

"Okay guys brace yourselves almost done," Jay said after a few minutes, soon enough the tree was cut and on the trolley.


When they arrived back at the castle Belle and Ben went to get the boxes of decorations, while Carlos helped Adam put the tree up.

"Decorating yes please," Mal said when Ben returned picked and up some lights she had read it was best to put them on first.

"Okay someone help please," Mal called as she found herself tangled up.

"Oh, hang on," Doug said as he rushed to untangle Mal while they both tried to hold their laughter long enough to detangle.

"And I am free," Mal said once Doug had untangled her.

Adam put some Christmas music on and they all set on decorating the tree, baubles with snowmen in and baubles that lit up, sparkling snowflakes that hung from the branches in different colours, tinsel that shimmered when the light shone on them.

"This tree is starting to look awesome guys," Jay said as he hung a reindeer on a branch.

"Youuu BAabbby," Doug sang as his song came on.

"This is cute," Evie said as she held a small ornament in her hand.

It was an old fashioned wooden angle but the detail was still very clear.

"Ahh, that was my old Christmas decoration as a child," Belle said smiling as Evie hung it up on a high branch.

"Tinsel lot's of tinsel," Mal said as she threw it in the air at a small height smiling as it fell over her before picking a red piece up to put on the tree.

"I love having a random tree," Belle said as she hung a purple snowman up.

"Me too," Carlos said.

Soon all that was left to put up was the star Mal picked it up and handed it to Belle who smiled gratefully and let Adam lift her up, and she carefully placed it on the top.

"Beautiful," Evie said, as she stood back to admire their work.

The tree was adorned with bright colours and random ornaments appearing in no particular order. The lights flashed in an alternating pattern lighting up the darkening room.

"Guys look outside," Jane called as she looked out the window, they all rushed to the window.

"It's snowing," Lonnie said as she smiled.

"Snow," Doug said cheerfully.

"Its pretty," Carlos said as he watched the snowflakes fall delicately from the sky.

"Did it snow on the isle?" Lonnie asked.

"Yeah, but it turned to slush pretty quick," Carlos said.

The group watched the snow fall as Belle left to go make some hot cocoa, the snow was settling on the ground Ben hoped it would continue to snow through out the night so the VK's could experience proper snow as soon as possible.

"Thank you," Jane said as Belle handed her a mug of hot cocoa.

They all sat in front of a roaring fire as the snow continued to fall outside.

"So what have you got planned for tomorrow?" Belle asked.

"Well if the snow settles snow day," Ben said.

"If not maybe another movie marathon not sure," Doug said.

The group hoped that the snow would settle as they watched the snowflakes fall, soon they all had to go back to their dorms preparing themselves for the cold that would greet them once they stepped outside.

"It's so fluffy," Mal said as a snowflake landed on her nose.

"Try this," Lonnie said as she stuck her tongue out to catch snowflakes, the others followed in suit seeing if they could catch one.

Soon enough they arrived back at school cold but happy.


I love decorating the Christmas tree, we have a fake one as my mum is allergic to real ones and it is cheaper, we get a new ornament every year though.

Thanks for all the reviews, favourites and follows.
