Soo, yeah I was going to put up 3, but then I kinda got grounded! Oops! So instead, you get (hopefully) 4 today, and one tomorrow! It's Christmas Eve already! I can't believe it! Hope you all enjoy it, and get everything you want for Christmas! And I'm going to put up another Ryelsi one that I wrote way before this challenge, as a separate story, so check that out! I decided to go back to little Ryan and Kelsi in this drabble. So cute!! Enjoy!

"There's Room for Everyone on the Nice List."
It was snack time at the Albuquerque Nursery School, the day after Santa had come to visit the children. A few of the kids had asked the teacher if Santa was going to come again, but she had told them that he only came once, so a lot of them were not in good moods. After their snack, they had time to play with the toys. While most of the girls ran to play dress up and house, and the boys started building towers with the blocks, and then knocking them over with trucks, Ryan and Kelsi sat down with a pile of picture books, and were looking through them. The theme of this pile, was of course, Christmas books.
After a few minutes of silent picture-looking, Ryan looked up, remembering a story he had been told a few weeks ago, that had nothing to do with the book he was looking at. (Little kids!)
"Hey Kelsi, have you heard about Santa's nice and naughty list?" Kelsi looked up, pushing her glasses up on her nose. They were a little big, and tended to slide down a lot.
"Yes I have," she replied quietly. "He keeps a list that says all the naughty kids on one side, and all the nice kids on the other side."
"Do you think you're on the naughty or nice list?" Ryan asked.
"I think the nice list," came Kelsi's hesitant reply. "I don't fight with Mommy and Daddy, and I pick up my clothes and always practice the piano."
"Me too!" Ryan said. "Cept…. I don't play the piano. Do you think I should?"
"No silly!" Kelsi said. "I play the piano, that's why I have to practice!"
"Oh," Ryan said. "Ms. Lonergan?" he asked his teacher who happened to be passing by them at the time.
"Yes Ryan?" she asked, squatting down to his and Kelsi's level.
"Do all kids get on Santa's nice list, or do some go on the naughty list?" was his question.
"Oh Ryan," the teacher said laughing. "There's room for everyone on the nice list!"
Just then, one of the girls started crying because another had ripped a dress out of her hands. Ryan glanced over at the guilty girl, and asked,
"There's even room for Sharpay?"
