*The next morning, In Momoko's Bedroom, Momoko's P.O.V*
The morning sun woke me up from my peacfull slumber and I slowly opened my eyes.
The first thing I remembered as I got up was that strange dream. It was so scary I still shake a little when I think about it. (You probably know which 'dream' she is talking about rigt? ;) )
I slowly dragged myself to the mirror and sat on the chair before it. Picking up the hairbrush off the table, I slowly and gently stroked my hair with it.
Today, I decided that I will take a shower before dressing myself up, which is kind of strange because I usually don't like taking showers in the morning.
*After the shower*
I putted on my robe and tied it, securing it from exposing too much.
I slowly walked back into my room and sat on my bed. My eyelids felt heavy but I have no idea why.
'I wonder what time it is...' I thought to myself. I think it must be still prety early.
I sighed and stood up, afraid that I will fall back asleep.
Still a little woobly, I walked to my closet and pulled out some clothes.
More specifically I pulled out a crimson red blouse, a white belt with pink diamonds and black skinny jeans.
I tied my hair up in 2 low ponytails, held by 2 silky ribbons and cliped my bangs on the side with 2 heart clips.
I putted on pink slippers with a big star in the middle and got out of my room to go and eat breakfast.
When I got in the dinning room, I was realy surprised to see uncle Jojo there. Even my sisters were there already.
We talked a lot during breakfast which is kind of weird because we were usualy prety quiet.
When we finished eating breakfast and our dad went in the kitchen to wash the dishes, uncle Jojo took us into the living room to talk about...something.
At first we talked about little things like how good the breakfast was or uncle's clocks and toys but then he got to the point.
''Girls...'' he started, a goofy grin plastered on his face ''I want you to meet someone...''
He clapped his hands 2 times and the door to the living door slowly opened, revealing 3 boys.
''...My nephews, Brick '' he said, pointing to the tallest boy among the boys. He had crimson red eyes and orange hair that reached to his mid back, tied in a low ponytail and a red baseball cap turned backwards on his head. He sure looks familiar...
''Butch...'' he pointed to the 2nd tallest boy. He had forest green eyes and spiked, raven hair that reached to his elbows,(I think) tied in a high ponytail with a light green rubber band.
''And Boomer.'' He pointed to the youngest boy. He had light blue, well more heavenly blue, eyes and light blonde hair that reached all the way to his shoulders.
We stepped closer to the boys so we could see them more clearly.
'' Hey! It's nice to meet you!'' we all said in unision and held out our hands for a handshake.( The boys and the girls!)
Me and Miyako giggled while Kaoru and the boys laughed at that.
''Wow we already get along!'' me and the red-headed boy said together. What's his name again? Ahhh Brick!
Everybody started laughing again, but we didn't notice uncle Jojo going out of the room.
After a minute of uncontrolable laughter we finaly stoped and started staring at eachother.
Well at least I stared at Brick and he stared at me. My heart started beating uncontolably and my stomach was doing flips when he looked me into the eyes. I even think I am blushing...Why?
''Well we should probably introduce outselves now!'' said Miyako and we (Kaoru and me) nodded.
''I'm Momoko Akira Utonium, the eldest daughter of Profesor Akira Utonium and Marie Utonium..'' I said the last part a little sadly but didn't forget to smile.
'' Momo/ko-chan we aren't on a business meeting you know...'' my sisters said, sweatdroping and I flushed as red as Brick's cap.
''I find the way she said that quite usefull.'' Someone standing behind me said. I think that was Brick...
''I mean we '' he pointed to his brothers and then to himself '' don't know your parents or who is older than who and we are really interested in that right?'' he looked to his brothers and they just nodded.
Kaoru sighed and Miyako apologized to me. I, of course, said that it was alright.
''Well I'm next.'' My raven haired sister said and smirked.
''Yo. I'm Kaoru Marie Utonium, the 2nd eldest daughter of Akira Utonium and Marie Utonium.'' She grinned and extended her hand to the one that was standing in front of her. I think his name was Butch.
But then I noticed something on her cheeks...Something red. Was she blushing?
I smirked at the though but quickly shrugged it off.
'No way...' I thought to myself and mentaly sighed.
''Well I'm Miyako Gin Utonium, the youngest daughter of Akira Utonium and Marie Utonium. It's nice to meet you!'' Miyako said in her usuall cherry voice and shook the blonde boy's hand.
I looked closely at Miyako and Boomer's face and I could see that they were both blushing. Cute isn't it?
''Cute isn't it?'' a voice said my mind and I just nodded dreamingly.
That's when I felt something or someone hold my hand gently and I turned around.
But when I saw who was holding my hand my whole face glowed red, I blushed that much. I even think I felt my heart skip a beat but I think that was only my imagination. No, not think, I HOPE!
I mean, I had just met him. I just MET Brick! I can't fall in love that quickly! Right?... At least I think this feeling is love...
'' Are you alright Momoko?'' he asked me, putting his hand on my forehead to check if I had a fever.
''No fever...'' he mumbled, ''then why was her face so red?''
I think that the question was more for himself then for me.
'' Sorry...You just surprised me a little...'' I said to him, clearly emberassed.
He gave me an apologetic look and let go off my hand while I just smiled at him.
We talked for abou half an hour when the boys asked us something we sure didn't expect...
''Umm...Can I talk to you alone?'' They asked in complete unison while looking at us.
Well, Butch looked at Kaoru, Boomer looked at Miyako and Brick looked at me.
We nodded slowly and got out of the room together before going seperated ways.
Well, Miyako and Boomer stayad in the room. Only me, Brick, Butch and Kaoru got out of it...
*With Miyako and Boomer, Miyako's P.O.V*
''So what did you want to ask me Boomer-san?'' I asked him when both his brothers and my sisters got out of the room.
He gulped slightly, a red blush adoring his freckled cheeks.
Wait! Why is he blushing?
''Miyako-san...Do you remember the nutcrackers uncle Joseph gave you?'' he said sheepishly. Does he mean the nutcrackers that could move, that could talk and that were fighting with the rats? But wait, how does he know about them?
I nodded slowly, not knowing where this is going.
He gulped again before continuing.
''W-well you see...How should I say this?''
I just waited patiently even though I was extra nervous just by being in the same room as him. I even think that my heart is beating unusualy faster than usual.
'' D-did uncle told you any story about how the nutcrackers became the way they were?''
I putted my finger under my chin and said: ''Now that you mention it...He did!''
I think I heard Boomer-san sigh a sigh of relief before continueing.
''Well to tell you the truth Miyako-san...''
He looked me directly in the eyes and I felt heat rise up to my cheeks. I sure hope he didn't notice...
'' The blue nutcracker...Was me.''
I gasped and looked at him in surprise.
''What?...'' I asked him in disbelief.
''The blue nutcracker was me.'' He said again, this time with a little more confidence that had had before.
I wanted to say something, to ask if he was lying or pulling my leg but...I couldn't. My throat was dry the minute he said those words.
'But I guess it does make sense I mean... I wouldn't fall in love with a toy without a reason and besides, I'm feeling the same thing for him.'
''Ok...I believe you..'' I said, my voice slightly beyond a whisper and he looked at me, his eyes widened slightly and he smiled at me.
The same cheerfull and kind smile that made me fall in love with him in the first place.
'' I'm glad! And there is this 1 other thing, Miyako-san...'' he said, blushing bright red again.
''Y-yes?'' I looked at him, blushing the same shade of red as him.
He sat beside me on the couch, leaned forward and...kissed me.
My eyes widened slightly from surprise as heat rose up to my cheeks but I soon melted into it.
When we pulled apart, we were both a nice shade of red.
He opened his mouth to apologize but I did the same as he did.
I leaned forward and kissed him on the lips.
He seemed to be a little surprised at first but soon, he kissed me back.
We pulled apart, so slowly that it was almost like we were in a slow motion.
''No need to apologize because I love you too...'' I said sheepishly but smiled nonethless.
Again he smiled that flawless smile of his and hugged me. A little unsurely at first but when I hugged him back, he burried his head in my hair and whispered countless times : ''I'm glad!''
I blushed again but enjoyed it anyway. Maybe christmas isn't all that bad...
*Meanwhile,with Momoko and Brick, Momoko's P.O.V*
After we went our seperate ways, me and Brick walked into the dining room.
There was an awkward silence before he broke it.
'' H-hey Momoko?'' Brick said in a low voice.
I looked at him and saw him looking sheepishly at his own feet, his hands behind his back as he was leaning on our dining table.
It was then that I realized that we were completley alone in the dinning room and my heart was starting beating a little faster. Why? Love? No!
''There is something you need to know...About your nutcracker...'' his deep voice woke me up from my fight with myself and I stared at him, confused.
''What do you mean?'' I asked him, wanting to gulped and looked me in the eyes.
''The nutcrackers...real identity...''
''Huh?'' Okay things are starting to get weird! What does he mean by 'real identity'? Wait, how does he even know about him?
''You see...'' he started '' The nutcracker wasn't always a nutcracker...''
Ok this is starting to get creepy... WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!
''H-he was once...A human.''
''A...human?'' I asked him, puzzled by this whole thing.
'' There was once a kingdom, where a princess named Himeko lived in and..-''
'' Stop the horses! You don't need to tell me that story Brick...I heard it already!'' I said to him, looking into his deep crimson eyes. For a secound I thought I was being hypnotized by them.
I blushed again because of that thought and I felt like my heart was going to explode any minute, it was beating that fast.
''Sorry...'' I mumbled, '' Continue...''He looked at me shocked but still smiled.
''Well...If you heard the story already then you must know that 3 boys turned into nutcrackers because of a spell right?'' he said and I nodded slightly, very confused.
'' Good. Uncle really helped me here...Now I don't have to explain what happened!'' he sighed a sigh of relief and I looked at him, puzzled.
''Brick...'' I said ''What's going on here? What do you mean?''
He smiled at me but I swear that I saw nervousness in his eyes. That and his cheeks were red.
''I mean that...'' he took a deep breath '' I'm 1 of the boys that were turned into nutcrackers when they were 13. I'm your nutcracker.''
The secound those words escaped his lips, my eyes widened and my mouth shot open.
''What...Did you say?'' I asked him, not believing what I just heard. Maybe I heard wrong?...
''You heard me Momoko...I am the nutcracker you saved that night by throwing your slipper at the rat. I want to thank you for that...'' he repeated, looking straight in my eyes.
My knees suddenly felt weak and I fell on the floor, still the same surprised expresion was present on my face.
' He realy is...him. But how! That story couldn't have been true! Or is it?'
''Momoko!'' I heard someone say, a pair of strong arms was gripping my shoulders, shaking me lightly.
I blinked a few times, but then I saw him kneeling in front of me so he could face me.
I backed away slightly, probably looking like an idiot because he looked at me with a confused expresion.
''A-are you alright?...'' he asks in such a low voice I barely heard him.
I nodded and smiled at him.
''I'm sorry, it's just that I was realy surprised by the fact that you were...you know.''
He nodded and got a little closer to me. Wait scratch that! I could feel his breath on my neck as he was talking, he was that close!
''But that's not the only thing I wanted to say. Momoko... I love you.''
That took me back. He was...In love with me? No way!
I was so surprised that I couldn't even blink let alone breathe.
I stared at him and he stared back at me. Well isn't that fammiliar?
His next move surprised me even more.
He...he...he kissed me!
He putted 1 arm around my waist and the other 1 around my neck.
I was so stunned that I didn't react at first but soon, I melted into it.
After we pulled back, he backed away and was looking at me in an apologetic manner but I just smiled at him.
'' I...I love you too, Brick.'' I said to him, making him blush and smirk.
''That's good!''
He grinned and got up.
He extended his hand to me and I took it, pulling myself up.
''Thanks!'' I said to him and he smiled at me.
Well it looks like christmas just got way better.
*Meanwhile, With Kaoru and Butch, Kaoru's P.O.V*
When we went seperated ways with Momo and that other guy, Brick I think, me and his raven haired brother went to the halway and took out our shoes and coats to go out.
''Why are we going out?'' I asked him annoyed and he just rolled his eyes.
''Because Kaoru, just because.'' He hissed. Wow he seriusly needs anger managment...
''Whatever...'' I said bluntly and got out of the house with the weirdo not far behind me.
After we got out, we had a little staring competition in which of course, I won.
''So what did you want to talk about?'' I asked him, annoyed by his stupid hesitation.
He sighed and layed down on the snow-covered floor.
''It's been such a long time since I saw snow you know?''
I looked at him like he was crazy.
''What the heck do you mean by that, Butch?!'' I half said, half yelled at him.
He rolled his eyes at me again and smirked. God, I hate his smirk! You wanna know why? Well it's because...It makes me feel so warm inside! Seriusly!
I frowned and tried again.
''Butch, what did you want to talk to me about?''
My fists were cletched at my sides as I stood above him, staring directly in his eyes. I tried to hold back my anger but I knew I probably won't be able to do it much longer.
He sighed again and slowly sat up,his hands were supporting his head while he was staring into complete nothing.
''It's been 3 years already...'' he mumbled so quietley I almost didn't hear him.
I sat next to him and did the same thing he did; I stared into complete nothingless.
''What...did you mean by that?'' I asked him softly, without turning around to face him.
'' I haven't been able to see snow...for 3 years. I was a nutcracker when winters came. Well that is...Until yesterday.''
I turned my head in his direction and looked at him with a What-The-Heck-Are-You-Talking-About look.
''You already know the story Kaoru. Uncle Joseph told you didn't he? While you were in bed because of the battle. Oh speaking of that, is your ankle alright?''
''Y-yeah...'' I studerred. Why did I studder? Well it was because of the cold obviusly!
But I still can't believe it...I can't believe that the story that uncle Jojo told us was TRUE! I mean, he usualy just makes up some story and tells it to us. But that 1...was true!? It was the least believable story he ever told us...
''Nee, Kaoru?'' he said to me.
''Wha-?'' Before I could finished, his lips crashed on mine.
HE KISSED ME! That bastard kissed me! But...Why does it feel so right? Even my heart is beating faster every secound and my stomach had butterflies.
Before I knew it, I kissed him back. I didn't want to do it I just...did I guess. An impulse maybe?... I even wrapped my arms around his neck to deepen it while he had 1 hand on my cheek and the other 1 was around my back.
When we pulled away, I started to feel my cheeks grow hotter and hotter while Butch, that bastard, was smirking.
''I knew you wanted me Ka~o~ru!'' he sang my name teasingly.
I punched his arm and mumbled a 'whatever' to him.
He then leaned to whisper something in my ear.
''I love you Kaoru.''
My eyes widened as he said that and I fought off a blush.
''I hate you, you bastard.'' I answered to him, my arms crossed at my chest and I looked away from him, blushing slightly.
Well, I can't hate christmas forever...
Me: *being a zombie* SOOO LONG! But totaly worth it! I hope you liked it! R&R! And sorry for slight OOCnes in some parts... Bye guys! PPGZ,RRBZ: *blushing*
