A/N: Here you go another one. I had a great idea with it, but I feel like I failed with it. I have started runing out of ideas, if you have any what you think yould be a good one to write about, then tell me. Enjoy.


It was Christmas, the favorite time of Hoss. It was time of peace, quiet and family. Even Adam and Joe didn't bicker at Christmas. Hoss smirked he looked his two brothers playing checkers; they had been nice with each other today. Like they hadn't been fighting yesterday. Calling each other with names –Yankee granitehead and spoiled brat where the usual ones. Pa and Hoss had had enough, they had tried reason with two brothers, but it didn't help. Adam and Joe had gone to bed angry with each other.

On a Christmas morning they had come down like best of friends. Like they weren't ready to kill each other last night.

Hoss didn't know what had happened, have they gone out last night and got swings each other or the spirit of Christmas had visited both of them.

But Hoss didn't care, his family was peace with each other and it was Christmas, the life for him was fantastic.
