-Chaoter 21-
-Santana pov-
It has been a few days since Tina was turned. Now we are in December and at the mall. Everyone is just excited to be out and about. Issue is something we all did not expect.
"Come on!" Brittany is leading us toward the bearded man red man "Come on! I want to give him my Christmas wish!"
"Yeah" I look at my mates and sigh "We better give our wishes!"
"Of course!" Oh god Rachel believes too "Let's go see Santa! I want to give him my wishes!"
"Yeah" Quinn and I share a look "Let's go Rach"
We walk with the club over to the Santa line. There are so many kids here. Brittany and Rachel are so excited though. I sigh knowing this will be quite the wait.
Sure enough it is almost a hour before Mercedes goes up. The club slowly goes up one by one. Rachel is almost ready to go. Quinn is up first though.
"I guess I am up" Quinn takes a deep breath and goes up then sits on his lap "Heeyy Santa...so I guess my wish is..well I just want a good Christmas with my girls ok?"
"That sounds easy" Quinn poses for the picture before getting away from him "Next up!"
"I guess I am that next up" I walk up to Santa and sit down on his lap "Look I am doing this for my friend and girlfriend! I want...that better be a roll of certs!"
The look on his face gives it away. I shake my head and get off his lap. That is absolutely disgusting! I see the two sad looks and sigh. I walk back over and sit down on his lap.
"Look I will forget the boner" He nods and lets out a relieved sigh "My wish is that you let the next two girls up have the best time ok? They..they still believe in you"
"I get it a lot" I nod and we take the picture so I can get up "Next up!"
"That's me!" Brittany runs over and sits on his lap "My wish is for that boy in the wheelchair to walk! It would make for a great Christmas!"
"Uh well" He looks at us as we shake our heads "I can make that work I believe! I will get the elf's working on it right now!"
"Thank you!" Our jaws drop as she gets the photo done then runs to us "Artie will walk!"
"Please tell me you two can do something" we shake our heads as we watch Rachel sit on Santa's lap "We are screwed"
"I am up!" Rachel smiles happily on his lap "What I want the most for Christmas is snow! I want a white Christmas so we can play in the snow! I want to build snowmen, I want to make snow angels, I want to build snow forts, oh! I also want to have a snowball fight with my family!"
Santa does not even look at us this time "I think I can try my best" I growl and they take their picture "Have a merry Christmas!"
"Thank you!" Rachel runs over and hugs us "We will get a snowy Christmas!"
"Yeah I heard" we walk away as a group "I can not wait to see what happens"
"I know Santa will keep his promise" I nod and look over at Quinn worried "Oh hey karaoke!"
Rachel takes off before we can stop her. I guess we are watching her sing now. Today is giving me a headache. I love her singing but now we have to hope for snow.
-Rachel singing-
Rockin' around the Christmas tree
At the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Every couple tries to stop
Rockin' around the Christmas tree
Let the Christmas spirit ring
Later we'll have some pumpkin pie
And we'll do some caroling
You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear
Voices singing let's be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Rockin' around the Christmas tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone dancing merrily
In the new old-fashioned way
You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear
Voices singing let's be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Rockin' around the Christmas tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone dancing merrily
In the new old fashioned way
"My turn!" Brittanys runs over to where Rachel was "I sing now!"
"Alright these two are a mess" I nod in agreement with Mercedes "This Christmas will be a mess too"
"Big time" I look down to see Rachel not paying attention "I need to find something that will spew out ice"
"Agreed" Quinn sighs "This is going to be a long upcoming Christmas Day for us"
-Brittany singing-
"Bah, humbug!" but that's too strong,
'Cause it is my favorite holiday.
But all this year's been a busy blur
Don't think I have the energy
To add to my already mad rush
Just 'cause it's 'tis the season.
The perfect gift for me would be
Completions and connections left from
Last year, ski shop,
Encounter, most interesting.
Had his number but never the time
Most of '81 passed along those lines.
So deck those halls, trim those trees
Raise up cups of Christmas cheer,
I just need to catch my breath,
Christmas by myself this year.
Calendar picture, frozen landscape,
Chilled this room for twenty-four days,
Evergreens, sparkling snow
Get this winter over with!
Flashback to springtime, saw him again,
Would've been good to go for lunch,
Couldn't agree when we were both free,
We tried, we said we'd keep in touch.
Didn't, of course, 'til summertime,
Out to the beach to his boat could I join him?
No, this time it was me,
Sunburn in the third degree.
Now the calendar's just one page
Of course, I am excited
Tonight's the night, I've set my mind
Not to do too much about it.
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
But I think I'll miss this one this year.
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
But I think I'll miss this one this year.
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
But I think I'll miss this one this year.
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
But I think I'll miss this one this year.
A has provided me
With the world's smallest turkey
Already in the oven, nice and hot
Oh damn! Guess what I forgot?
So on with the boots, back out in the snow
To the only all-night grocery,
When what to my wondering eyes should appear
In the line is that guy I've been chasing all year!
"I'm spending this one alone," he said.
"Need a break; this year's been crazy."
I said, "Me too, but why are you?
You mean you forgot cranberries too?"
Then suddenly we laughed and laughed
Caught on to what was happening
That Christmas magic's brought this tale
To a very happy ending
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
Couldn't miss this one this year!
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
Couldn't miss this one this year!
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
Couldn't miss this one this year!
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas!
Couldn't miss this one this year!
"Brittany is so good!" I feel wagging and see Rachel's tail is poking out "We can do a duet next competition! Oh boy, oh boy! I can not wait to do one with her!"
"Yeah I think someone is getting super excited" Rachel leans into Quinn as she nods "What do you think we should do next?"
"I think you two should sing!" Rachel's tail wags more and we cover it "Please! Please! Do it!"
"I guess we can" I look at Quinn who nods "Alright! We will sing a song!"
"YAY!" Rachel pushes us toward the mics "Go! Now!"
We laugh as she runs back to the group. I love she can be her true self. I guess we are singing for our pup. Quinn points to a song and I nod.
-Quinn-Santana-Both-
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles
Will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on our troubles
Will be miles away, oh ooh
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore, ah
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us, once more, ooh
Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us, once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough, oh
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now, ooh
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
The crowd of shoppers applaud and the glee club each take their turns. Today has been fun but also rage inducing. I can not believe that mall Santa promised those things. This will be a hard feat to pull off.
But I will try my best for a great Christmas.
