Chapter 5
Terra walked over to a bench where Aqua was sitting.
"Hey Aqua," he greeted her.
"Oh. Hi Terra," she said.
He sat down next to her.
"You remember when we used to have Christmas in the Land of Departure?", he asked.
"Of course," she said before giggling.
"Remember the time when we were setting up the Christmas tree and it fell on top of you?"
"Yeah. And remember when we always sat near the window waiting for Santa Claus and his reindeer?", Terra asked.
"Yes. We would wait until Master Eraqus made us go to bed," Aqua said.
"Do you wanna know what one of my favorite things about Christmas Eve was?", he asked her.
"What?"
He smirked and started singing a song he heard on the radio earlier.
"I never saw a reindeer fly. Make it's way across the sky. But I know if I close my eyes my wishes will come true. Like the one I saved for you."
Aqua smiled when she got what he meant and they both started singing together.
"Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow."
"Don't care it's cold tonight," sang Terra. "Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow."
"I'll keep you warm tonight," Terra sang before they both sang the next part together.
"Through the good times and bad, happy and sad, I'm still holding on. I know what I have. And all that I want is Christmas Eve with you."
They started waltzing around while singing.
"The simple things like goin' home and friends say that you're not alone. Songs of joy they keep you strong make everything OK. Oh when Santa's on his way. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Don't care it's cold outside. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. I'll keep your warm tonight. Through the good times and bad. Happy and sad. I'm still holding on. I know what I have. And all that I want is Christmas Eve with you. Yeah. The sleigh bells are ringing. They're getting real close. I think I hear Rudoplh just up the road. Candle lights and hearts full of hope. The stars shining bright. Some things will never change. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. My arms are open wide. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. I'll keep you warm tonight. Through the good times and bad. The happy and sad. I'm still holding on. I know what I have. And all I want for Christmas Eve is you. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. The fire's burning bright. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. I'll keep you warm tonight. It's not just the gifts under my tree. The best things in life are totally free. And waiting for me is Christmas Eve with you. Is Christmas Eve with you..."
When they finished singing, they smiled and looked into each others eyes.
Meanwhile, two certain blonde lookalikes who could practically be called twins were holding a video camera spying on them while hiding in a bush with stupid grins on their faces.
Meanwhile Kairi was in another part of the park and was sitting all by herself.
She started to sing one of her favorite Christmas songs.
"Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum. Bum bum bum bum bum bum. Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum. This is my winter song to you. The storm is coming soon it rolls in from the sea. My voice a beacon in the night. My words will be your light to carry you to me. Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love?"
She walked over to a lamppost and stared at the snowflakes.
"They say that things just cannot grow beneath the winter snow, or so I have been told. They say were buried far, just like a distant star I simply cannot hold. Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? This is my winter song. December never felt so wrong cause you're not where you belong. Inside my arms. Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum. Bum bum bum bum bum bum. Bum bum bum bum bum bum. I still believe in summer days. The seasons always change and life will find a way. I'll be your harvester of light and send it out tonight so we can start again. Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive?"
She sighed and thought of Sora for a couple seconds before singing again.
"This is my winter song. December never felt so wrong, cause you're not where you belong. Inside my arms. This is my winter song to you. The storm is coming soon it rolls in from the sea. My love a beacon in the night. My words will be your light to carry you to me. Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive? Is love alive?"
She sighed when she finished singing.
She loved that song so much. It almost reminded her of how Sora traveled everywhere to look for her.
She was pulled out of her thoughts when she heard some type of muffled grunt.
She followed the noise and found Lea with his tongue stuck to a pole.
"Oh hey Ka-wi!", Lea said as he tried to get his tongue loose.
"Seriously Lea?", Kairi asked him.
"I phon't even know why I phid it. I just fet phlike it OK? Now will you help me?"
Kairi sighed and shook her head. She walked over to him to proceed in prying his tongue off the pole.
Author Note: The songs in this chapter are Christmas Eve with You from Glee and Winter Song by Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson. I don't own any of this.
