Christmas Time

2nd of December

When the ones you love are there

You can feel the magic in the air

A strong wind was blowing outside causing snow to be thrown against the windows which rattled under the assault though the room was nice and warm as a small blonde boy opened a cardboard box eagerly while his mother smiled dreamily.

'Where can we put these mum?' Lysander asked brightly as her pulled out several ropes of tinsel. His mother, Luna, looked up from where she and her husband, Rolf, were setting up the Christmas tree.

'They can go on the tree or over the windows if you like,' she said and her son grinned at the idea.

'Can we put them on both?' he asked hopefully and she nodded causing his grin to widen. Rolf shook his head slightly, his smile hidden by the tree as their other son entered the room dragging another box into view.

'I found the last one,' Lorcan announced and Rolf clambered out from behind the tree.

'Where was it?' he asked and Lorcan gestured to behind him.

'At the very back of the closet,' he answered before joining his twin in pulling the decoration out of the boxes.

'Hey mum?' Lysander called as he pulled out plant with white berries on it. 'Where do we put this?'

Luna looked slightly alarmed when she saw the plant before she took it off of her son. 'That shouldn't go up in the house,' she said in her calm voice.

'Why not?' asked Lysander curiously.

'Nargles infest mistletoe,' his mother answered and Lysander listened eagerly, storing the information away.

'Could we put it outside then, so the Nargles can still be out for Christmas?' he asked not noticing Lorcan rolling his eyes as he untangled a handful of baubles.

'Of course,' Luna smiled dreamily at her son who smiled happily before returning to the fun of decorating the tree.

Lysander and Lorcan quickly pulled glittering baubles onto every branch they could reach while Rolf and Luna added several to the top half of the tree. Both boys grabbed an end of tinsel and ran around the tree wrapping the tree in it before Luna added some fairy lights. Rolf then lifted both Lysander and Lorcan up so they could put the star on top together before being lowered ot the ground where they all looked at the tree before reaching a decision.

'It looks beautiful,' Luna told them and they both grinned, their eyes shining brightly as Rolf ushered the family into their small kitchen and made everyone a mug of hot chocolate.

'I bet our tree looks better than Lily's this year,' Lysander said beaming at the thought. 'Last year hers was really nice but this year ours is better.'

Rolf grinned at his son's words while Luna looked thoughtful.

'Perhaps one year you could both help decorate each other's trees and they'll both look wonderful,' she suggested and Lysander lit up at the thought while Lorcan began to look bored and began to gulp down his drink so he could leave and most likely go play with a friend.

'Can we do that next year?' Lysander asked and Luna nodded. 'You'll help us too won't you Lory?' he asked and Lorcan looked slightly surprised at being invited before he shrugged.

'Why not?' he said and Lysander grinned.

'Wait a moment,' he said slowly.

'What's wrong?' asked Rolf as Lysander's smile turned into a frown.

'There aren't any Nargles at Lily's house are there?'

See the joy in the children's eyes

The way that the old folk smile
