Santa Claus is coming to town

He was really starting to get used to the idea of having his mom around. He still didn't understand why his grandma told him that she had died when he was born. His mom was really nice and she really did love him. She wanted him to be happy and was willing to do just about anything to make that happen.

He didn't really like Rome. The people were weird and his mom seemed really sad all the time. At first he thought that maybe he had done something to make her upset. But when he finally got enough courage to ask her why she was sad, she said that she missed Port Charles and when he told her that he missed it too, they had decided that maybe it was time that they go back home.

When his mom told him they'd be spending Christmas in Port Charles he was really excited but then he realized that he had moved so much this year that Santa would never find him. His mom told him that Santa would find him wherever he was but he was still a little worried. He wanted to ask someone else just to be sure. So when he saw Carly walk into the living room with a little girl he figured he might as well ask her. She seemed like she would know.

"Hi," he approached her timidly.

"Hi Alec, this is Josslyn," she said setting her daughter on the floor. "Josslyn, baby, this is Alec."

"Alec," she repeated after her mom offering the boy tiny wave and making a beeline towards the train set and toys that were set out under the tree.

"So Alec, I bet you're really excited about Christmas aren't you?"

"Yeah it's just...can I ask you something?"

"Of course you can sweetie."

"I moved a lot this year. Do you think Santa will know that I'm here? Mom said he would but I just wanted to be sure."

"Well honey your mom's right about that. Santa knows everything, if your bad or good and where you are, always. So you don't have anything to worry about."

"Cool. I think I'm gonna go play with Josslyn now. That train's kinda tricky," he said as he ran back towards the tree.
