The holidays have started for me, which means, a huge tons of updating my stories! This is a very special time, that I am spending at my dad's house, where I can do what the hell I want, from morning to the middle of the night. I can watch anime, and write how much I want.

This is going to be so fun!

Trip to Niseko: Part 3!

It was the morning of Christmas, that Shizuo woke up from a delicious smell, rustling of papers, laughing and the mix of Christmas songs in the background. Throwing a red robe on, the blond exited the bedroom, coming into a room, decorated in the best way for the holiday.

A big Christmas tree was in the middle of the room, decorated entirely, a bunch of gifts already sitting under it, Mairu and Kururi sitting beside it, wrapping the leftover gifts, while talking was being hear from the kitchen, where he suspected Izaya and his mother to be, which was true, seeing the middle aged woman decorating gingerbread in frosting, while the raven was leaning down at the oven, pulling out another batch of fresh cookies, checking up on breakfast.

''Morning, Ms. Orihara.''

''Oh, good-morning, Heiwajima-san. I hope me and my son did not wake you up?''

''Oh, no! It's okay. And you may just call me Shizuo.''

''Well, then you can surely call me Kyouko.''

Izaya had a bright smile on his still a bit sleepy face, seeing how his family liked his boyfriend, his heart beating even faster for the blond. He had made such a thoughtful gift for him, bringing his family to spend Christmas together.

After a while, the twins ran into the kitchen, helping their mother with setting up the table, while Izaya finished decorating the gingerbread with frosting, pilling the cookies on a plate, putting it in the middle of the table, while Shizuo was getting dressed.

The big family all sat together, talking about the holidays, the exploring of the resort, and the grand ball , that was happening tonight. The twins would go to the teens party, that was going on on the first floor, their mother going whit them, while Izaya and Shizuo were going to the ball for adults, happening on the roof of the building.

After finishing breakfast, the Orihara family cleaned up the mess, while the blond snuck his big pile of gifts under the tree.

A while later, the company got dressed and went exploring the resort, Kyouko going together with the twins to the snow amusement park, Shizuo and Izaya right behind them, settling down on a bench, holding hot chocolate.

They all made snow-angels, had a big snowball war, made snowmen, and felt like a big, whole happy family once again.

It had become evening, when the whole family put in a cliché Christmas movie, eating tangerine and gingerbread, cuddling all together on the sofa, the Orihara twins suddenly attacking their brother with a tickle war, in which the blond and Ms. Orihara soon joined, almost killing the raven in the process.

After that was over, a comfortable silence settled in the room before a shrill scream broke it.

''It's time to open the presents!''

With that, Mairu and Kururi ran under the tree, burying their top halves in the presents, almost drowning in the quantity, while the grown-ups just chuckled, but joined the excited teens, sitting cross legged in the ground pillows.

Mairu was the first to return from under the tree, with a pile of gifts for her, Kururi following soon after. The bespectacled girl held up the first box, which was addressed from her mother. It was filled with candy, yellow and black clothes, the box matching her sisters.

The next boxes were from their brother. Once Mairu opened her box, a squeal tore from her voice-box, as she dove into the box, dragging out one after another boxes of the Pop! Horror movie characters.

''It's the whole collection. I hope you like it, Mairu!''

The girl was ecstatic, jumping in the open arms of her brother. Kururi soon followed, after receiving a similar set.

''Izaya, don't buy the girls such expensive gifts!'' His mother scolded him, but smiled right after.''But, thank you. They have always wanted those.''

''It's time for your gifts, mom!'' The girls yelled, diving under the tree, pulling out 3 more gifts. The girls gave their mother a self-made scarf and gloves, with a nice bottle of perfume. They handed her another box.

''This one is from Iza-nii.'' Izaya's mother smiled warmly, opening the small, carefully wrapped box, her eye's filling with tears. Inside was a beautiful, crystal carved necklace, with a big diamond heart.

''Izaya, darling..it's beautiful..'' The girls looked inside the box, ooing.

''Open the heart.'' Kyouko did just that, letting tears fall. Inside the heart, was a picture they took last night, their family together again.

''Oh, sweety. Thank you. Merry Christmas.''

They hugged, and then moved along to Izaya's.

He received a nice clothes package from his mother and a prank kit from his sisters.

''Well, Mister Money man, where are our gifts?''

''Mairu! That's not polite!''

Shizuo was laughing, but soon stopped.

''Don't worry. I have them right here. Izaya had told me about you two rascals, and I happen to know, that you love my brother. So, I made some arrangements, and got some passes for you three to his latest movie shooting and talk show.'' The blond said smugly , giving the family the passes, before being knocked over in kisses and hugs.

''Izaya-nii, sorry, but we're stealing your man.''

Izaya just chuckled.

The blond reached in his pocket again, pulling out an envelope, handing it over to Izaya's mother.

''It's three unlimited flight tickets to anywhere in the world, so whenever you need or want to meet Izaya and me, wherever we are, you are welcome. We are family now.''

''Thank you, Shizuo. It's so nice, that my son is blessed with such a nice man.''

Izaya blushed and pointed Mairu to another small box under the tree.

''Um.. I know that you are, like the richest person in the world, but I bought you this, since it thought it would suit you.''

Shizuo opened the box, his eye's meeting a nice, expensive looking wrist watch. Under the watch cover, there was another slot, in which there was a picture of Izaya and Shizuo together.

''Oh, Izaya. I love it.'' The blond hugged his lover, putting on the watch.

''I remembered that you were a good artist, so I bought you this.''

Izaya took the big package, opening it and meeting a very big drawing tablet with around a hundred accessories.

''Promise me, you'll draw something for me, when we get back.''

''I promise.''

After the big gift exchange, they went to their parties. Shizuo and Izaya spent the whole night dancing, until the midnight fireworks.

As Izaya returned from his dip, to look the blond in the eye's, they shared a sweet kiss.

''You do know, we have to go back tomorrow. It's a shame.''

''I don't care where we are. I feel happy, as long as you are together with me.''

Fate Goes To Niseko: Part 3 (Trip end).

Okay, this trip is finally finished. I need ideas for two more filler chapters. And here is where you come in. You can send me PM's with headcanons or your original ideas you would like to see in a chapter. If I choose your idea, I will give you a shout-out.

This is going to be fluffy and short until chapter 20. Then, prepare your heart and brains...

Until next time,
