"Joy to the world! the Lord is come; let earth receive her King;
let every heart prepare him room,
And heaven and nature sing, and heaven and nature sing,
And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing" the bakery's owner sang happily while she was walked through the bakery. Fay, who didn't know the lyrics, just hummed the song, much to Kurogane's annoyance.
"Will you two quit it already, I can't stand that song anymore!" the ninja yelled from the backroom where he was doing inventory.
"Don't you have any Christmas spirit?!" the woman yelled back at him.
"No."
"Well, I didn't think you would," she shrugged her shoulders and turned to the blonde with a smile:
"But you on the other hand, have so much Christmas spirit that you could share it with others!"
"Oh, thank you," the mage smiled back at her. He was putting icing on a large cake and tried not to spill it on the wrong place.
"What if we'd go on a Christmas carol concert tonight," the owner suggested , "you could bring the kids and the white bouncy thing too! I'm sure they would enjoy it very much!"
"We're not going", the black haired man grunted.
"But why not? I'm sure Sakura-chan would enjoy it. And Syaoran-kun and Mokona too. I would like to go as well," Fay pouted.
"I know! But if I hear one more time, 'Lucia-san, I love you', someone is going to lose their head," Kurogane looked to the blonde with a very serious look on his face.
"If you're there, I'm sure I will be left alone," the mage assured his lover.
"And I'll be there too! I'm hitting everyone with a broom if they try to come too close!" the brunette woman said enthusiastically with her long plaits swinging from side to side once again.
"I don't think that's necessary", Fay smiled awkwardly.
All day the two tried to persuade Kurogane to agree to let them go into the concert. Finally, after a very long period of time, he agreed just because the other two had been bugging him all day and the ninja was getting pissed off.
So when the evening came, the owner of the bakery came to pick up her two employees, the children and the white manju from their house. They walked on the snowy road and enjoyed the cold weather. Mokona was so exited about the concert that it had already started to sing it's own Christmas carol:
"There are two nights to Christmas and then Mokona will get lots of presents, because Mokona has been a good Mokona all year! And when its Christmas Eve, Mokona will give a big kiss to the good puppy…"
"Oh shut up already!" Kurogane grabbed the manju and threw it towards the Fay, who caught the it easily.
"Kuro-wanwan, you shouldn't throw Mokona, it could get hurt", the blonde said holding the white manju gently in his arms.
"Like hell it will!"
The concert was held in a local church. There were candles everywhere and a lot of people had gathered there already. Some people pointed at Fay, whispering 'Lucia-san' but after Kurogane gave few glares to them, all commotion ceased. The group sat somewhere in the middle of the bench rows. When the concert itself started the people in the church got quiet and let the choir and the singers sing in peace.
Sakura and Mokona were thrilled about the concert and they enjoyed it very much. Syaoran was more interested in the building than the music itself, so he didn't pay so much attention to it. The owner of the bakery and Fay talked about the concert on their way home and agreed it was excellent. Kurogane just grunted to them and stayed quiet the rest of time.
A/N: Thanks for reading the twentysecond chapter of the Tsubasa Advent Calendar! Today's theme was, with no doubt, 'Christmas Carols'!
Punainenpuolukka: We're very sorry that this chapter was published so late. But you know when it's Christmas time you have other things to do too.
Enonyymi: That's right. But I still hope you liked this.
Punainenpuolukka: I think it's quite funny that I, who doesn't particularly like Christmas carols, wrote this chapter. And the event here in Finland – the concert, I was implying in this chapter – is called Kauneimmat joululaulut (The most beautiful Christmas carols). I think it was actually held here about a week ago but it fit perfectly in this place in our Advent Calendar.
Enonyymi: Well, I think this turned out great, even though you don't like Christmas carols.
Thank you all for reading and we'll see again tomorrow! Bye!
