Jasper loved to sing, he only ever did it in private though. He used to sing back when he was in the army, he'd strum on his guitar with his men all around, and they'd sing a battle song. Alice was the only one that knew that Jasper loved to sing, and had an amazing voice. If anyone else knew, they never metioned it. Jasper sang constiently to Alice, he loved to make her smile; and when he sang her eyes sparkled and her smile spread wide.
Jasper knew that Alice loved Christmas it was probably her favorite holiday, besides black friday if that counted. She always did special things for him, suprising him doing something to make him smile. He needed to make Alice smile, to have her be blissfully happy. So he practiced silently for hours until she returned home. He grabbed two santa hats and decided he was going caroling with Alice.
When Alice came home, she already knew. She ran up the stairs and into their room.
"Jazz, you don't have to. I know you don't like to sing in front of anybody." She said speaking quickly.
"Alice." He said sending a wave of calm toward her. "It's fine really. I'm doing this for you."
"But it will make you uncomfortable and unhappy."
"No it won't, don't you see Alice. Doing things for you is what makes me happy."
She smiled and placed a santa hat onto his head, and put one on her own.
"What song?" Jasper asked smiling at his wife.
"The Christmas Song." Alice said
Jasper ushered Alice to their door, and let her lead the way.
She walked outside Edward's door and opened her mouth. Jasper believed her voice was way better than his own and he smiled as she began to sing.
"Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose, Yuletide carols being sung by a choir, And folks dressed up like Eskimos."
Edward's door swung open and Bella stood behind it, smiling in awe. Edward even let a smile dance at his lips. Alice grabbed Jasper's hand and squeezed it as he opened his mouth.
"Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe, Help to make the season bright, Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow, Will find it hard to sleep tonight."
Bella looked to Edward and whispered to him.
"He's amazing." Edward furrowed his eyebrows and the two tried not to laugh. Two more sets of doors opened and four heads peeked out the doors. Jasper and Alice both turned down the hallway to face everyone, but neither paid attention to the other people around them.
"They know that Santa's on his way He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh," Alice sang looking up and Jasper smiling. Esme turned to Carlisle and he wrapped his arms around her. "They are something else aren't they?" Esme asked looking at her children.
"And ev'ry mother's child is gonna spy, To see if reindeer really know how to fly."
"Did you know Jasper could sing?" Rosalie said turning to Emmett who was smiling at his brother and sister. He looked back to Rose and shook his head. She grabbed his hand, and he kissed her forehead.
"And so I'm offering this simple phrase, To kids from one to ninety-two, Although it's been said Many times, Many ways Merry Christmas to you."
"They really are the spirit of Christmas aren't they?" Bella asked swaying in Edward's arm.
"Yea, Bella I think they are. I think they are the spirit of Christmas, and the glue that holds this family together."
Alice and Jasper both turned to each other, and sang the last part to each other.
"And so I'm offering this simple phrase, To kids from one to ninety-two, Although it's been said Many times, Many ways Merry Christmas to you."
As they finished, Esme broke away from Carlisle and went over to her children. She pulled them into a hug and said 'Merry Christmas.' Bella let her hand slip from Edward's and walked over to Alice and joined in the hug. Soon the whole family was in an embrace. Then the smallest voice from the center of the circle said with a smile. "Merry Christmas."
