Max's POV

After we had finished eating and sitting in the rather small booth for a while Nudge chimed in, surprisingly she had hardly said anything during the meal, "Hey guys I've been thinking," oh boy here we go. "I have an Idea. Since this is our first official Christmas and all I wanted to do something special. You know, since we are taking Christmas 'off' and all. I was wondering, cause I thought this idea would be so much fun and creative. I mean we didn't even have Christmas with Jeb so yeah. Oh speaking of Jeb I'm so mad. I mean it's-"

"Nudge the point," I gritted my teeth together. She really was a sweet little girl. She just talked way more than necessary.

Nudge took a deep breath, "well I was thinking, maybe the flock could make a small list of what we want for Christmas. Just a small list of like candy or something." She looked up at me hopefully

"Yeah I think that would be a perfect idea," Angel bounced up and down in her seat.

"I don't know," I began and looked over at Fang. He shrugged in his shoulders in his oh-so-helpful way. I turned but to Nudge and Angel only to be pummeled by Bambie eyes. (A/N Omgsh I taught my dog how to do the Bambie eyes it is soooooo cute and funny lol he'll wrap is front libs around ur leg and give u the Bambie eyes I luv him lol neway back 2 the flock) I sighed. "Fine but nothing that will way us down or that an Eraser could choke or kill you with."

The flock gave out whoops. "Thanks Max," Nudge said and ran for the elevator. I glanced at Fang. He gave me a look that said 'I blame you'.

"Hey who let them have the dog?" I snapped at him.

He grinned, lighting up my immediate area. "Yes, but who saved him from falling at 22,000 feet?"

"Aw, touché." I walked to the elevator and braced myself for the ride up.

I watched Sponge Bob as I waited for the kids to make their Christmas list. Just as Sponge Bob was drowning, yeah I know I don't understand how you can drown when you live under water either, Nudge called me over.

"Here," She handed me a rather messy, short list. "We are done. Now you and Fang can go and buy us the things on it."

Fang was already in the door way, putting on his jacket. Nudge started pushing me out the door. "Wait why me and Fang? Why can't it be just me?"

Nudge sighed "Gosh Max just go!"

She pushed me through the door and it closed with a click. Great. I get to spend the rest of the day with Mr. Unemotional. Yay me. "You ready," Fang asked snapping me out of my thought.

"Yeah, but can we take the stairs?" I pointed toward the door that lead to the stairs.

He laughed, "Sure." I smiled too. Maybe today wouldn't be so bad after all.

After about an hour of searching for a store that held at least one of the items on our list I was about ready to throw someone into a wall. You might think 'well hey it's New York how hard could it be?' well heck pretty hard.

Seeing that I was about to lose it Fang pointed to a dinky little dollar store, "Maybe we should look here."

"Sure, whatever," I mumbled majorly annoyed right now. I pushed open the door and a bell ran over head. "What's first on our list?" I couldn't wait till we were done with this stupid Christmas shopping.

Fang held up the list and read the first item. "Peanut M&Ms." Ok to the candy aisle.

Just as I bent down to pick the bag of stupid M&Ms the bell on the door rang. "Hi, Carlos. I brought you your lunch. You forget it at home." The voice was all too familiar. I was almost afraid to turn around.

"Thanks sis," a rather nasally voice , "but you know that doesn't mean anything. I can go without lunch for a day."

"I know but you know how mom is." Then I heard a gasp. "Oh, my gosh, Nick ! I didn't expect to see you here."

I plastered a fake smile on my face and turned around just in time to see the RHW kiss Fang on the lips. Did I mention how suckish my day was so far? Yeah, well, it just got a whole lot worse.

After about 3 seconds I couldn't take any more of it. "Um, excuse me, Lissa but, what are you doing here?"

She tore herself away from Fang and looked like she was physically trying not to slap me in the face and go back to smooching with Fang. "Um, I was giving my brother his lunch." She motioned over to the clerk behind the counter. Now that I actually looked at him and noticed he was there he really did look almost exactly like Lissa. He had red hair, big thick black glasses, and pimples all over his face.

He waved over at us, "You guys ready to check out?"

"Yeah hold on a sec," I grabbed the bag of M&Ms and walked up to the read haired guy. I looked at his name tag. Carlos. I almost burst out laughing. Well, it fit his looks.

"Um, that will be $2.39." He leaned up against the counter in the stupidest position I had ever seen. "So you're friends with my sister. Maybe we could get together sometime."

"No," I said curtly, handing him the money.

"But I'm captain of the chess club and the math squad. I'm even president of the Pokémon theme club. We could go on a date and fall in love like Ash and Misty, like the king and queen, like 2 numbers that always have to be together no matter what. Then we could get married and raise a family like ponds from chess, or raise a family of Pokémon, or like in math have a family of 2+2=4."

Jeez, how lame could this guy get? "No means no. Come on Fang let's get out of here." I grabbed the bag and started walking to the door.

"But-but," Carlos started to cry," I-I love you. Why can't we have a perfect love? A perfect family? If you're not the one then where art thou my Romeo? I-I mean Juliet."

Gosh so now it was Shakespeare. "No, let's go Fang."

He started to walk to the door too. "Aw, can I help you guys?" Gosh she really couldn't just get off him could she?

Seeing that I was about to explode Fang stepped in, "Not right now. We were just about done anyway. Maybe next time."

She crossed her arms over her chest, "Fine then but I'll be waiting for you when you get back to the hotel." I was about to tackle her and throw her into the ocean filled with hungry sharks. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed Fang on the mouth yet AGAIN. I coughed loudly "Fang let's go," He walked to the door where I was now standing.

"Ok then I'll see you tonight." He gave her a little wave and walked through the door.

Gosh how could he stand her? I sure couldn't.

We had finally finished getting everything on the list. It was now dark and who knows how late. I wonder what the kids had been doing this whole time.

We had decided to walk through the park. All the trees were covered in Christmas lights. It was rather pretty. We had been walking a while without talking, just thinking. Some bickers were pedaling their way down the path not watching where they were going.

Fang and I jumped out of the way and he protectively put his arms around me as he got totally soaked with cold water. The bikers kept pedaling their way down the path but Fang didn't let me go. I looked up at him and noticed where he was looking. Straight up.

I followed his gaze. He was looking at mistletoe. He then turned his gaze down into my eyes. Before I could even blink his lips touched mine. My brain shorted out. All I could think about was Fang and how his lips were moving softly under mine. I stood there stupidly for a moment then turned in his arms and kissed him back.

I knew the world was going on around us but it was just a buzz in my ear. It didn't matter. I didn't care. All that mattered right now Fang. I felt something cold and wet land on my check. I came back to reality and gently pulled away from fang but not moving out of his grasp. I looked up and another snowflake landed on my eyelash. It was snowing.

When I looked up I also got a closer look at the mistletoe. Or should I say "mistletoe". Now that I looked closer it looked a lot like holly.

"Fang isn't that… Holly?" Fang gave his R.O.S.S. (A/N If u don't understand wat R.O.S.S means u didn't read the authors note at the top of the screen go read it cuz that is important to know) surprising me. He bent down over me and kissed the snow off my eyelash then pressed his lips once again to my lips. My brain shorted out again. The first thought I had was, 'Jeez, Fang pick me or Lissa' but as soon as I had that thought it was gone. All that mattered was Fang.

I didn't want this to end. Even though I'm sure I was forever it felt like such a short time when we finally broke apart. Fang gave me a half smile smirk, making my heart leap and making the sun come out in my world. He let me go even though I so wished he wouldn't. He started walking down the path leaving me thinking to myself while the snow fell softly round us.

A/N hoped you liked it and i np i didnt do the kissing sence to well, well wat can i say ive neva been kissed b4 i wouldnt no lol ok now that i am done typing this it will b christmas in 40 minutes i no im a dork lol what can i say
