Christmas eve
Rei woke up early that Friday morning. She glanced around the room dully. After a while she got up. And brushed her teeth and whatever. And by the time she went down she was tackled.
"Hey, Rei! Why are you still in your pjs?" asked Max who was wearing green overalls and red striped stockings.
Rei looked down at her black tank top and blue shorts. She smoothed down her pink bandana and said,
"Max, its Christmas Eve not Christmas." Rei explained.
"Yeah, but the others are dressed."
Rei raised an eyebrow. "Others?" She repeated.
She saw a lot of shoes pilled in front of the doors. "What time is it?"
"1:30pm"
Rei dashed back upstairs. She pulled a red ROOTS sweater over her head and put on tanned pants. And to dress up she put on a Santa hat. Then she came downstairs.
"Reeeeiiiii.." Max whined. "Put on the outfit I put out for you."
"Who else's clothes did you pick out?"
"Takao, Kai and Chief's."
Takao had antlers and was wearing a rubber red glowing nose. Kai was wearing a Mrs. Clause costume and Chief was Frosty the snowman. Rei feared of what was left.
"Come on Rei!!! Kai will do your hair!!!" said Max dragging Rei and Kai back up the stairs.
"Oh Joy. I always wanted to dress like this." Said Rei flatly.
Rei had some of her hair spiked up and pulled the rest into white wrapping paper. She had sleigh bells tied to her neck. And she was covered completely in Christmas wrapping paper.
"AAAWWWWWW!!! It looks sssoooooo cccuuuttteeeeee!!!!!!" Screamed Max as Rei tried her hardest not to beat her up.
"How about a big red bow around her waist?" Smirked Kai.
'Oh that evil little wrench. I'll get her one of these days. I knew she was trying to make my life worse. I just never had the pro-'
"Great idea Kai!! I'll get the big ribbon." Said Takao running off.
"You sadistic bitch! You enjoy this a lot don't you?"
"Well, why wouldn't I? My dearest friend."
Rei threw Kai the dirtiest she could muster. And then Max tied the bow around Rei's waist tightly.
"I hate you all." Rei murmured.
"That's nice dearest Rei. But now is not the time for love, we must make sure our mistletoe is doing her job." Kai announced.
"Yeah, right. You only want to go make out with Santa Claus." Joked Takao.
"I haven't the slightest idea what you mean." Said Kai airily.
Oliver was covered in mistletoe and kissed all the guys. Rei made her way to Oliver.
"Hey, Olive oil. You little hoe." Rei said snobbily.
"Oh, hi Rei-Slut." Oliver said looking down at Rei from the stairs. A second later Oliver came running down the stairs and hugged Rei.
"Soo… did you get it?" asked Rei excitedly.
"Have I ever let you down?" Oliver slipped a box in Rei's hand.
Rei smiled. "Tell me all about your trip to Paris later, Oille. Let's put my plan into action."
Oliver made her way to where Tala and Kai were talking and called, "Mistletoe!"
Tala kissed Kai lightly on the lips. Kai blinked up at him and Tala smiled. Then she started to giggle and ran off into the backyard. And Tala went off to chase her. Rei gave him a thumbs up.
In the backyard it was pure snow. From everywhere it sparkled. Tala followed the small footprints to Rei's garden. And opening the gate he met with a large snowball. Tala shook the snow out of his hair and grinned.
'Where did she go?'
Kai made another snowball from behind the bush and went out another attack. But there was no Tala. She scanned the garden but there was no sign…
"ACK!" Kai screamed as her sides were grabbed and were tickled.
"Tell me what I want to hear!"
"I give! I give!" laughed Kai.
Tala let Kai down and went to lie on the snow. Where Kai joined him.
"Ever make a snow angel?" asked Kai.
"No, what is it?" asked Tala, putting his arms under his head for comfort.
"Well, you make an angel in the snow. Like this.." Kai moved her arms and legs.
Tala got up and then helped Kai up without ruining their imprints. Tala looked at Kai's.
"Wow. Your's looks just like you, a perfect Angel."
"And yours looks like you too, a horny devil." Giggled Kai punching him lightly in the shoulder.
Tala blinked and looked at his imprint again.
"Hey! It does!" Laughed Tala until a block of ice hit him.
Rei was on top of the roof and raised another ice cube warningly.
"What?" asked Kai and looked at the roof only to see snow.
"Do you have you phoenix lighter, I gave you for your birthday?"
"Yes, I bring it with me everywhere."
"Well, the thing is… I shouldn't have given it to you then…." Tala fiddled with a block of ice.
"Oh." Kai said clearly disappointed.
"Hey can you melt this with it?" Tala said quickly changing the subject.
"Oh, sure." Kai smiled, still a bit sad.
Kai placed it on the grass and put the flame to it. After a while Tala lifted Kai's chin and said,
"Don't be sad. You know I care for you, and I know this is a bit forward but…" Tala pointed to the cube, which was slowly melting in to a diamond ring.
"Will you let me take you away from that crazy Chinese girl you live with?"
"Oh, Tala. You knew the words I've always wanted to hear to day I moved in with her. I'd love to." Kai wiped away her tears and kissed Tala.
Then they were pelted with ice.
"What? Hail?" Kai wondered aloud.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN CRAZY CHINESE GIRL?! I'LL KILL YOU BOTH!!!" Rei threw bucket after buckets. Then using all the snow on the roof pushed a snow bolder on top of Tala. Kai made a run for it.
"HIWATARI!!! I'M NOT DONE WITH YOU!!!!" Rei jumped from the roof and went chasing after Kai.
Happy begining to your2005
