Once Nina was released from the hospital, Santa took them all back to the North Pole. He and Mrs. Claus threw a small celebration in honor of Nina fully recovering. There was food and dancing, and though Nina wasn't feeling quite well enough to move around a lot, she still enjoyed being around everyone.
Both of the Miser Brothers were at the party, now in their true forms. They approached Nina. "Ugh! I'm glad to be myself again! Being human is a pain in the butt!" Heat complained.
Nina smiled. "It is sometimes. Thank you for going there to see me, though. I really appreciate it." She stood up and hugged him.
"Well, for you, it was worth it," Heat told her, hugging her back. When they pulled away, he joked, pointing to Snow Miser, "Watch out for this one. Of course, I don't have to tell you that." He patted his brother's back and walked away.
Snow Miser shook his head, grinning, then held Nina's hand. "Want to go outside for a minute?"
"I'd love to," Nina replied. Any moment she had alone with him was welcomed.
The two went outside, and Snow helped her sit down on a bench, then sat down beside her, putting his arm around her. "So, I heard you're going to start making deliveries for Mr. C.'s charity once you get better."
Nina nodded. "I've got to get back to business as soon as I can. I really don't like being cooped up in bed all the time."
"I'll bet. You've been through a lot, lately. It's nice to slow down once in awhile, too, though."
Nina agreed, burying her face into his chest for a few moments. Finally, she spoke again. "I want to stay here," she told him. "I want to stay at the North Pole. I've traveled the world but never felt like I fit in anywhere...until now. I love it here, and I love all of you. This is where I belong, and this is where I want my home to be."
Snow Miser hugged her with joy. "Honey, that's great! I'm glad you feel that way. In fact, I want to ask you something. Will you move in with me? If it's too soon, you don't have to, but I really enjoy having you at my place."
Nina pulled him down so his face was close to hers. "Yes, my love. I wouldn't have it any other way." She kissed his lips.
Snow ran his fingers through her hair. As he pulled away, he told her. "I love you. I'm never going to take you for granted."
"I love you, too. Maybe you can come with me on some of my flights, if you can stand being in your human form long enough, Nina laughed.
"I'd love that. It may be a little uncomfortable, but I'd never pass up an opportunity to be with you." Snow Miser then stood up. "Well, my snow angel, what do you say we go back inside so we don't miss your party?" He held out his hand.
Nina took it, letting him help her up. "I say let's do it." She gave him a kiss on the cheek.
Holding hands, the two walked back into the house to rejoin the festivities.
