A Case Of Mistaken Holiday

"The spell you broke, on your head falls. You shall crack nuts, Prince of the Dolls."

- The Mouse Queen

DoDo-Do-Do-Do-Do-DoDoDo-DoDoDo-DoDoDo-DoDo-DoDo-Do

Rosalie's ears perked as she listened to the strange music fill the air. It was an odd but familiar tune that played out in a hauntingly beautiful way.

Deciding that manning the door with candy for the trick-or-treaters wasn't half as important as satisfying her curiosity, she meandering over to the piano, half expecting to find her bronze haired brother sitting at it, playing the tune for Bella.

To her immense disappointment, the baby grande's bench was empty and the keys were still.

Continuing her trek, she checked all of the rooms on the bottom floor, only to find them all deprived of people. Sighing, she expanded her exploration.

She steps were completely silent as she made her way up the stairs and down the hall. Oddly enough, no one seemed to be in their right rooms. When she finally reached the end of the hall, she looked into Edward's room to see him, Bella, Esme, Carlisle, and Emmett all standing before the glass wall, and looking out at something down below.

Speeding over to them, Rosalie stood behind Esme and looked over her shoulder.

"So, what're we all looking at?" She asked, still not seeing anything.

"We're not looking at anything, Rose. We're listening to the music." Emmett said as she smiled shortly at her.

"Music?" She said, quirking her perfectly groomed eyebrow, still being able to hear that familiar tune. "Well, where might it be coming from if I were so bold as to ask?"

"Over in the forest, where Jasper took Alice." Edward replied absentmindedly. "I seriously never knew he could play like that…" He whispered as an after thought.

"That's Jasper out there?"

"Indeed, it is." Carlisle replied.

"Well, this calls for further investigation."

"Now, Rosalie, don't you think you should give them a little priva-"

"Well, I got to go!" She chirped, cutting Emmett off. "Man the door for me Edward?" She called as she shot out of the room, down the hall, and off towards the forest, not giving him time to answer.

Sure enough, as she got closer to the stream, the music grew louder. Soon, she was at the edge of the clearing. She could see Alice, sitting with her back against a tree, watching Jasper, who stood a couple meters away, softly blowing into a shiny silver flute.

After just a couple of notes, it hit her. The song was one she knew, and knew it well she did: The Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairies.

With Emmett's favorite Christmas movie being The Nutcracker, she had heard that song many times. But why was Jasper playing it now? It was still two months until the holiday season.

Stepping forward, she cleared her throat to make herself known.

"The flute Jasper? I never knew you played." She cooed as she entered the clearing.

"Hey Rosalie," Alice said dreamily from her place on the cold grass. "Isn't he wonderful?" She swooned.

"Wonderful? Alice, he's playing Christmas music on Halloween."

"So?" Jasper said as he dropped to the forest floor. "It's Alice's favorite song, and I wanted to do something special for her."

"Special isn't disturbing the rest of the members of the house-hold plus one with off season carols." Rosalie retorted.

"It's not a carol."

"Well, could you at least try and make it sound more haunting?"

"No."

Getting aggravated with the conflict she began, Rosalie strode over to her brother and fell to his eye lever.

"The song you play, on your head drops. You shall cry murder, Prince of the Flops!" Rosalie chanted as she grabbed the flute out of his hand and hit him harder than need be, although still playfully, over the head with it.

"Ouch!" Jasper screamed as he rubbed his head, knowing that if he were still human, a bruise or a welt would be forming.

"Rosalie!" Alice yelled after the blonde haired beauty who was laughing sprightly as she glided off into the forest.
