They sat around admiring their handiwork, after much grunting, pushing, and pulling they had
finally gotten the tree in it's old fashin stand. It stood cozily in the corner of the
library, the fire was crackling in the fire place and they sat on floor staring up at the
tree. BR

"Now it's time for the fun part." Eriol said smiling at Tomoyo.BR

"What's that?" She asked. Naruku jumped up and grabbed a hold of Spinel off of Tomoyo's
shoulder.
"DECORATING IT!!!" She sqeauled gleefully, "Come on, Suppi-chan!!! We'll get the decorations
from the attic! Eriol you and Tomoyo need to start on her ornament and stocking!!!" Naruku
skipped out dragging Suppi-chan with her.BR

"My ornament? My stocking?" She asked puzzled, Eriol chuckled and got up. He offered a hand
to her. She grinned and got up herself.
"Yes, you'll need a stocking, for the tradition. And everyone who stays with us at Christmas
has a ornament." He explained as they walked over to her bags. She picked up the bag with
her sewing belongings. She opened it up and let Eriol look through. He finally decided on
a wool lining for the inside and a rich, royal purple for the outside. A golden thread was
what she was supposed to use for her name. Eriol also insisted that she write it in
Romaji, 'For an athentic effect.' he had said. She sighed as he led her up to her room.BR

"I'll be back with stuff to make ornaments. But get settled in, and maybe put on your
pajamas." He told her and left her to discover her room.BR

She found that a door near her bed lead to her own personal bathroom, an English bathroom.
She had found that other than the foyer, Eriol's house was pretty much all English. She
decided to take a shower in the English steam shower, and marvels over the marble counters
as she set out her tolietrees.

"OW!!" Tomoyo stuck her forefinger in her mouth. Eriol chuckled.BR

"You don't touch the metal parts of a glue gun, Tomoyo-san." He told her with a smile, and
surprisingly she laughed.BR

"I know, I slipped." The two were making her ornament. It was a circular glass bulb that
they had stuck a light in. They where now gluing colorful farbic cut out in the letters of:
T-O-M-O-Y-O. They finished about fifteen mintues later and moved onto Tomoyo's stocking.BR

"ERIOL-KUN! WE'RE FINISHED!!!!" Naruku sung from downstairs. The two got up and went out to look over
the stair well and see the entire downstairs hall and library floor covered with boxes. Only
space was left, was enough just to squeeze in between each box. Both teenagers sweatdropped.BR

"Na-Naruku-san, did you bring down all the boxes in the attic?" Eriol asked in disbelief as
they went downstairs.BR

"IIE!" Naruku said smiling, "Just every one that had 'Christmas' written on it!" She said.
Eriol groaned.BR

"That means ALL the decorations! Even the ones that we don't need!!" He sputtered at her. She
grinned.BR

"Ohhh, Eriol-kun!!!" She said too syurpy, and pointed up. The pair realized where they were
standing a little too late. It was under a bunch of miseltoe hung up above the end of the tiles
in the foyer. The two turned as red as Syaoran around Sakura, she gave them an evil grin, "Well?
What are you waiting for?" She demanded, Spinel flew in to see what was the matter. He grinned
wryly.BR

"So, Naruku, that's what you wanted me to put that up there for." He said and fold his arms.
He gave his master a sly grin and looked expectantly on with Naruku. Naruku then took out a video
camera.BR

"AAA!!!" Both of the teenagers went. Naruku grinned evilly.BR

"This is payment for Sakura-chan and Li-kun!" She said mailciously. The two groaned and faced
each other.BR

"Eto . . . So I supose this is part of a traditional English Christmas - getting kissed under
the miseltoe." Tomoyo said akwardly. Eriol grinned and leaned in.BR

"I'd kiss you even without the miseltoe, Daidouji-san." Eriol said cautiously and softly, he knew he
should keep his luck down . . . BR

"Arigatou," She whispered and they kissed softly before jumping apart. They were both blushing
furiously. Naruku giggled.BR

"More than, Li-san in his finest moments." Spinel remarked, satisified. The two glared at the
two mischief makers.BR

"Eriol-kun, did you finish Tomoyo-chan's decoration?" Naruku asked as they head to the library.
Eriol held up the little glass bulb, "OH! TOMOYO-CHAN IT'S PERFECT FOR YOU!!!" She sqeauled.BR

"Aaa. . . Arigatou, Naruku-san." Tomoyo blushed furiously.

"AAAAAA!!!!!!! TOMOYO-SAN!!!" Spinel screamed and zoomed into her hair, "Naruku wants to
feed me the garlands!! HELP TOMOYO-SAN! MASTER!!!" He whimpered. Naruku mumbled something
about ingratfulness, coward, and bad-breath. She picked up her ornament which was in the
shape of a crestent moon. It was a deep maroon and had little baker's untensil's hanging
off of the bottom with a small doll of a scared Spinel. The moon read in silver letters:
Ruby Moon. Naruku waltzed over to the half decorated tree and placed it in the front.BR

"I really should get a Touya-kun doll to put on there too." She said thoughtfully, Tomoyo
giggled. Spinel cautiously flew out of Tomoyo's hair and picked up his black bulb.
Blue and red designs swirled over the glass blub, making it look like stained glass. Spinel
flew up to the high branches and placed it on a light bulb, and Tomoyo could see the colors
spelled "Spinel Sun."BR

"Well here's mine." Eriol said, pulling out a plain little flat mirror with a thing silver
frame. He hung it so everyone would look in it. Naruku peered in it and a reflection of
Ruby Moon showed back. Naruku yelped and jumped backwards a little.BR

"I hate Eriol's ornament." She whimpered and went back to hanging other ornaments on the
tree.BR

"Eto, Tomoyo-san, aren't you going to put your ornament up?" Spinel asked from the safety
of the high tree branches.BR

"Well, I don't know-" She was cut off by Naruku.BR

"OH! Kaho-san's ornament!" She sounded cheerful and then her hand flew over her mouth
realizing her mistake. Eriol looked down at the floor and groaned. Tomoyo looked down at
her simple ornament. Kaho's was a brillant amber with little specks of green on the amber
prison of a butterfly. A sword was etched in the substance and filled with the
semi-transparent green paint. Tomoyo looked up plastering a smile on her face.BR

"You know what, Spinel. I will put my ornament on, where do you think is best?" She asked.
Spinel flew down, knowing he was safe from Naruku while she tried to make things better for
Eriol.BR

"How about here?" Spinel asked, pointing to the branch next to Eriol's ornament. The area
was a little bare she smiled.BR

"The ornament does look a little lonely, ne?" She asked, Spinel nodded and swiftly glanced
at his master, ' It's not just the ornament,' he wanted to tell her. "There!" She said
hanging her ornament almost next to Eriol's. She peered into the mirror cautiously. She
saw a relfection of her in a lavendar shade. It was a little dull but as she looked harder
she saw herself older and grown up. A child played at her feet and a man in the shawdows
talked to her as she played with the child.BR

Tomoyo's jaw dropped and Spinel went around to see what she was seeing right before she
moved away.BR

"Eriol-kun?" Tomoyo asked still a little dazed. Eriol looked up.BR

"Nani?" He looked quiet worried about Tomoyo's dazed statis.BR

"Does your ornament tell the future?" She asked, he gave her a puzzled look.BR

"Maybe why?"BR

"I think she just saw part of her's!" Spinel wailed. He knew exactly who those people
were and it quite frankly mad him want to scream with joy. He was going to have Tomoyo
for a lot longer than two weeks if that mirror was right.BR

"What'd she see Suppi-chan?!?!?!" Naruku demanded with big hopeful eyes. Spinel gave her a
sly grin.BR

"Enough to know that we're going to get what we want." He replied, Naruku squealed with
delight.BR
(A|N: for those of you who haven't figured it out, the man in the shadows was Eriol, and the
kid was . . okay now you get the picture? I'm not spelling it out for you!!!)BR
