Prologue: Solitude
Being alone was, surprisingly, one of the things Bernard couldn't stand. Of course, he'd always pretended to dislike everyone else. Honestly, he didn't mind Judy or Abby, the cocoa elves, too much, and Curtis was ok, once you got to know him. So, basically, Bernard pretended for most of his life. He pretended not to get along with the other elves. He pretended he liked working with so many different Santas.
It is, he'd admit, exciting meeting new Santas for the first time, but they're always clueless. Take Scott for example. Putting up with Scott in the beginning was incredibly difficult. Everything was, "why, why, why?" He just couldn't believe. Yet he had a positive effect on Bernard. Scott and Charlie had opened Bernard's eyes to the world around him. In fact, he was a more cheerful elf because of them. There were more sparkles on his cheeks now because of them.
Bernard was always in control of his emotions. He never showed what he truly felt, except on very rare occasions. For example, Bernard loved kids. Not that he would ever tell anyone, but he was great with them. He knew how to act around them, what to say to them, and what they liked. Surprisingly enough, they liked him back.
Bernard wasn't known for his big heart, but he did care about others. He regarded Judy, Abby, Curtis, and the other elves as siblings, not that he would ever tell them that.
A/N: sorry it's short, but it is a prologue/teaser thing. I'd like to know how you like it so far, so, PLEASE review.
