CHRISTMAS DAY XX

Snow was falling on the ground outside and the castle was prepping for the Christmas dinner while five excited teens began to wake up.

"Mmmhmmm," Mal said as she slowly sat up rubbing the sleep out of eyes.

"Morning Mal," Ben said placing a kiss on the top of her head.

"Morning," Mal mumbled snuggling into him. "Wait, it's morning?" Mal said.

"GUUYYYYSS, WAAAKEE UP IT'S MORNING IT'S CHRISTMAS DAAY!," Mal cheered as she got up to jump on Ben.

"Merry Christmas guys," Ben said as he sat up seeing the other three already sat up with smiles on their faces.

"Merry Christmas," They all said.

"Let's go wake up my mom and dad, when I was younger, I would always jump on their bed to wake them up," Ben said as he led the way to their room.

"I can't believe it, it's Christmas I wonder what Santa got us," Evie said, trying to keep her excited voice at a whisper.

"Ready?" ben asked when they reached the former king and Queens bedroom door., the group nodded with big grins on their faces. "3, 2, 1," Ben counted before opening the door.

"WAAKKEE UPPP, IT'S CHRISTMAS!" Ben cheered while jumping on the bed, the others followed it suit.

"Merry Christmas," Adam said as he put his glasses on.

"Merry Christmaaaaasss," Carlos said as he continued to jumped on the bed.

"Come on get up, the sooner you do the sooner we can eat," Dude said, as he jumped on Belle.

"Sooo you want to open your stockings or..." Belle asked trailing off at the end.

"Can we plese, really yes," Mal said, happily.

"Yes, come on," Belle said as she got out of bed.

The group headed into the living room where their stockings were hung by the fireplace, they all went to go get their stockings while Adam started a fire.

"I'm so excited," Evie said as she held her stocking close.

"I can't believe it's Christmas day already," Jay said, as he sat next to Carlos.

Once everyone was sat in front of the fire, they began to open their presents.

"Awesome," Mal said as she pulled out a key ring in the shape of a dragon.

"Aweee, coool" Carlos said as he pulled out a cushion with Dudes face on.

"Well I do look cool," Dude said as he sniffed at the cushion.

"Yess," Jay said as he pulled out a dog tag and put it on.

"Make up, awe thank you," Evie said, smiling Widley it was good make up too, it was Ariel's line Kiss the Girl.

Everyone got nuts, and orange, candy, socks and a scarf, while Mal also got some pens. Evie a mini sewing kit for on the go, Jay some playing cards with the royal crest on, and Carlos got a blanket also with Dudes face on.

"I am just so good looking I am on everything," Dude said causing the group to laugh.

"Hey Dude, you got a stocking too," Ben said as he brought it over.

"I did, oh my thank you thank you," Dude said as Ben handed him the stocking.

Dude nudged at the opening with his nose and pawed at it, Carlos helped him get what was inside it out.

"Treats, and a ball ooo a sausage, doggy candy" Dude said happily. "Awe hey look I got a cushion and a blanket with your face on Carlos,"

"Sweet," Carlos said as he scratched Dudes ear.

After opening their stockings, the group headed to the dining room for breakfast, breakfast consisted of pancakes in the shape of snowmen and Christmas trees, bacon, sausages, waffles, fruit and hot chocolate.

"This is sooo goood," Mal said as she ate a mouthful of waffles.

"This is the best breakfast I have ever had," Jay said as he got some more bacon.

"Can I please have a sausage?" Dude asked he was sat by Adam hoping he would drop some food on the floor.

"Sure," Adam said as he got a plateful for him.

"Thank youu," Dude said cheerily as he chomped down.

After breakfast everyone went to get ready for the day, Christmas Jumpers from Mrs Pots and funky slippers from Cogsworth. When everyone was ready, they headed back to the living room to open their presents from Santa.

"Mal here you go," Ben said handing her present, Ben also handed the others theirs.

"Wow," Evie said once the wrapping paper was gone.

"Exactly what I wanted," Carlos said happily.

"Wait, we all asked for a phone," Jay said realising they all had got a phone.

"Seems as though you did," Belle said smiling.

They took it in turns opening the rest of their presents from Santa, Belle snapping lots of photos so they could remember this day for years to come.

"Neat," Carlos said as he looked inside the tool box he got.

"Awe, these are so pretty," Mal said as she looked at the shirt, she had gotten.

"Oh, my he got it," Evie said as she opened the sewing machine she asked for.

"Sweet," Jay said when he opened the present, he was most excited about getting. "A games console and the newest model as well, and games, thanks Santa,"

"Awe yes, Santa got me a laptop," Carlos said happily, his current one was starting to run slow and freeze on him every half hour.

"Yesss, a new sketch pad," Mal said with glee. "Awe, look at his face it's so cute, I will name you Klaus," Mal said referring to a caramel coloured bear with red foot pads and a blue jumper with a penguin on the front wearing a Santa hat and a red scarf with white spots on.

"He's adorable," Evie exclaimed as she looked over.

"Check out the shades," Jay said, as he put them on pulling a smoulder. "Ahhh yes, an outdoor survival kit," Jay exclaimed, he had wanted one for a while ever since he read about Flynn Riders adventures by Eugene Fitzherbert.

"Yes, I got some shoes these look sweet, Dude check em out," Carlos said as he showed them to him.

"Sweet, now you can take me on lots of walks," Dude said.

"No way this is beautiful, " Evie exclaimed as she opened up her music box, it played a pretty tune, the outside of the box was decorated in a zodiac style with the constellations matching them with an angle on the middle that turned as the music played. "Kiss The Rain Yiruma is just beautiful," Evie said.

"It's so pretty," Mal said as she admired the design.

"What else did you get?" Jay asked, as she closed the lid.

"Hair clips, these are gorgeous," Evie said as she looked at the jewelled clips and hair sliders.

"Ben what did Santa get for you?" Mal asked.

"He got me, some new clothes, books, a DVD and a popcorn maker," Ben said.

"Ooo, popcorn," Dude said.

"What DVD did you get?" Jay asked.

"Pitch Perfect 3," Ben said, as he read the title.

"Cool," Evie said.

"Dude Santa got you something as well," Carlos said, as he gave Dude his presents.

"He did, I didn't even write a list," Dude said before tearing at the paper with his teeth.

"A new food and water bowl, doggy food, a chew toy," Dude said excited when he saw what he got. "Thanks Santa,"

"You're a good boy Dude," Carlos said as he gave him a cuddle, Dude gave him his special doggy kisses. "Thanks boy,"

Everyone sat around and watched some Christmas morning cartoons while they waited for lunch to be ready, clearing away the paper and admiring the gifts that they had gotten from Santa.

"I love this music box so much," Evie said as she admired the design and music.

"This shirt is just so cool," Mal said, her shirt read Ah the element of surprise with the word 'Ah' in a periodic table box.

"HA," Dude said, when he read the shirt.

"Who's up for a game later?" Jay asked as he placed his games console to the side.

"Me," Carlos said.

"Yeah man," Ben said.

"Yeah," Evie and Mal said.

"I will watch and observe," Dude said in a determined tone.

"Christmas lunch is ready," Mrs Potts said as she walked into the living room.

"Woohoo," Dude cheered jumping around in circles.

They all headed to the dining room where they were with a festive table setting, they did not have assigned seats so Mal sat next To Ben and Jay Carlos sat next to Belle and Evie and Adam sat next to Jay. They were joined by Belles father who had just arrived and Mrs Pots, Cogsworth and Lumiere.

"It smells so good," Carlos said, as the smell of food wafted in from the kitchen.

Soon the food was brought in a an enormous Turkey , with crispy roast potatoes, sage and onion stuffing, Yorkshire puddings, pigs in blankets, mashed sweet potato and vegetables. There was also gravy, bread sauce and of course cranberry sauce.

"Thank you all for being here, merry Christmas," Adam said as he carved the Turkey.

Everyone passed their plates round for the turkey before pulling on everything else, once everyone had their food the rest of the staff joined them Adam and Belle had always done this as a way to thank them, he considered them family. Adam even got a plate for Dude who was sat by his feet.

"Thank you," Dude said as he chopped down on his turkey and sweet potato, parsnip and carrots and a little bit of bugs in blankets as he couldn't eat to much bacon but he loved it so Adam let him have some as it was Christmas.

"Mal, let's pull a cracker," Ben said as he grabbed one, Mal grabbed the other side and pulled when it popped Ben had the bigger side but gave it to Mal.

"Thanks, Ben," Mal said as she put her crown on.

"What's white and goes up?" Mal asked as she read the joke.

"I don't know," Carlos said.

"A confused snowflake," Mal said. "Clever, I guess,"

"Haahaa," Evie laughed a little.

"I got a fish thingy," Mal said.

"Oh, yeah hold it in your hand," Ben said, Mal did so and it curled.

"Cool," Mal said.

"This is amazing," Jay said as he ate some more turkey, he loved everything about christmas dinner so far, the turkey, the pigs in blankets even the vegetables.

"I agree," Carlos said as he sipped his cola.

"I am glad you like it," Mrs Pots said as she smiled.

"The crown is more of a necklace," Mal said as she repositioned her crown on her head.

"I know what you mean," Carlos said, who was having the same problem.

"Anybody want some more turkey, veg?" Adam asked.

"Me please," Jay and Mal said at the same time.

Belle smiled, as they got some more food she was happy they were enjoying themselves , and she was too. After everyone had finished they were all stuffed they didn't think they would be able to eat anymore food that was until Mrs Pots left the room and returned with pudding.

"OH MY GOD," Jay said as he saw the options.

"Looks so good," Evie said.

"And smells good," Carlos said, as Mal smiled and smelled the air.

They had Christmas pudding, mince pies, chocolate cake, ice cream of all the flavours, toppings and sauces for the ice cream and chocolate.

"Christmas pudding," Carlos said as he ate a bit. "Is soooooo good,"

"I agree," Adam said.

"I like the chocolate cake," Mal said.

"The mince pies are amazing," Ben said, Mrs Pots had made all the puddings from scratch.

"Thank you Ben," Mrs Pots said as she smiled.

"Mmm delicious," Maurice said, he was eating the Christmas pudding.

"Thanks..nom..Mrs Pots...nom nom," Dude said, Mrs Pots made Dude a special doggy Christmas pudding as a present for him.

"Fly froggy " Carlos said as he pinged his toy he got from his cracker.

"Ha, he landed on my plate," Maurice said who was across from him, Maurice expunged the frog back to Carlos.

"I got a pen which will come in handy," Jay said, as he clicked his pen.

After lunch everyone helped to clear away, putting the food in tubs so they good eat the left overs over the next few days, they left the drinks out so everyone could help themselves over the rest of the day.

"so, who is ready to open some more presents?" Belle asked when they returned to the living room.

"We can open more?" Carlos asked and Belle nodded so Carlos went to go find a present, he found one and handed it to Evie. "This is from me,"

"Thanks," Evie said and began to open her present. "The colour is so pretty, thanks Carlos," Evie had gotten a lovely ice blue nail polish it was also from the Kiss the Girl brand.

"You're welcome," Carlos said as he smiled.

Evie then went to go find a present when she returned from under the tree she handed the present to Jay, who took it with a smile on his face. Tearing off the paper he smiled.

"Thanks E," Jay said giving her a hug, Evie had gotten him gloves that had extra grip and were perfect for rock climbing.

And this is how they went the person who got the present would go and find a present from themselves for someone.

"Jay thank you," Mal said, Jay had gotten her some new paints she was in need of more so she was defiantly happy.

"Mal this is amazing," Carlos said, Mal had given him a drawing of Dude that she had done.

"You captured my randomness very well," Dude said.

"Thank you," Mal said as she gave them both a hug.

"You're welcome Mal," Belle said smiling as she returned the hug.

"Guys you didn't need to get me anything," Ben said as the VK's handed him each a present.

"Shhh," Evie said as she smiled, Ben smiled as he opened his gifts.

"Dude we hot you something to," Carlos said as he got Dudes presents out.

"Yes Dude, we love you," Evie said as she scratched his ear.

"I love you all too," Dude said and began to open his presents. "a new collar thanks Carlos," Dude said, Carlos have given him a red collar.

"You're welcome," Mal said smiling, she loved the feeling that she got when she gave someone a gift it made her feel all tingly and warm inside, the others felt the same. After all the presents were opened and the paper was tidied away the snacks were brought out crisps, chocolate, chicken kebabs, tater tots all the party food you could think of and a cheese board which Evie was eager to eat.

Adam helped Jay set up his games console while Mal started to draw in her sketch pad, Evie was munching on cheese as she read her fashion book already getting new ideas of what she could make next, Maurice was eating his chocolate as he watched everyone.

Once the games console was set up Jay, Ben and Carlos played Mario it was a favourite among everyone.

"Ahhh," Carlos said as he nearly beat Jay.

He gave his controller to Adam so he could have a go and Be gave his to Maurice, They each walked them through what to do and did a practice round before the real thing, Maurice had won which surprised him.

"Haha," Cheered Maurice.

Everyone was having such a good time Belle put some music on and everyone had a dance, laughter filled the air as Jay did the walk like an Egyptian dance to Baby it's cold outside.

Dude danced around with everyone as he kicked his ball around people throwing it around for him which he loved as he ran after it.

"I got it, I got it, I got it," Dude said as he ran after it.

"Oh I wish it could be Christmas every day," Evie sang.

"I really do though," Carlos said.

That danced for most the night and after they were to tired to carry on with dancing they all snuggled up on the couch with hot chocolate and popcorn and watched Jurassic World, all thinking that this was the best Christmas ever.
