Author's Note:

Hi guys. I decided to post a couple of chapters a day because I really want to get this story finished for you. I don't really like the way the story has turned out so later in life I might come back to this and re-write it but for now I'll just carry on. I have also thought of writing a parallel story for Sapphire so tell me in your reviews what do you think of that.

Also I have noticed that is cutting out random words from my chapters so some of it makes no sense. I promise I will get on that as soon as possible because it's started to bother me.

Review Please.

I don't own MCL or anything like that but my OC's are mine...


The next days were even more weirder than the ride home with Castiel and Lysander. Everyone in school seemed to be constantly excited and everyone was too busy to tell me why.

Nathaniel wasn't in the council room but that was to be expected, he was probably off with my sister somewhere. Melody wasn't in there either but she was probably desperately trying to find Nathaniel. Lysander and Castiel weren't in their usual places and I had no idea why.

After wandering around the school for a few hours I finally found a human being who was willing to talk to me but of course it wasn't one of my friends. At least not one of my close ones. It was actually Peggy.

"Hey Peggy wait up!" I shouted as she was just about to leave and ran up to her.

"Oh hey Scar! What's going on?" She asked as she always does.

"I've been trying to find someone who isn't too excited and busy to talk to me." I told her catching my breath.

"Why? Has something happened? Big news? Anything about relationships? Can I put it in the paper? Can I get an exclusive interview?" She started shouting questions at me.

"No Peggy calm down. I just want to find out why everyone is so excited. Do you know why?" She looked at me quizzically.

"The only reason that I can think of is that it's Christmas in a few days and it's the last day today." I was shocked.

"How could I have forgotten Christmas!? I haven't got anyone presents or anything. I'm so screwed." I added.

Before Peggy could reply I legged it down the hall and through the door and falling on my but because I bumped into someone.

How I hate clichés.

"Who you running from now Cinders?" The oh-so-familiar voice that belonged to Castiel spoke as he grabbed my hand and pulled me up and pulled me in hugging me.

I was very confused, he was doing it again. That was until I heard her voice.

"Oh look it's the lovely couple... Move! I'm trying to get past, get a room you two." She said and her and her lackeys made gagging noises.

"You jealous Amber?" Castiel asked still hugging me and rubbing his hand softly up and down my back.

He's really good at that...
Don't.
Don't what.
I know he's sexy and all but-
I'm getting the feeling you think Castiel is good-looking.
No honey that's you.
What?
You know you are actually talking to yourself.

The argument in my head ended and I decided, it did feel really nice. I looked at Amber and could see she was really jealous and I put my head on Castiel's chest to make her angry. Well that and it just felt nice.

"Well I'm guessing you will be spending Christmas together and probably sit there making out all the time." Amber said and I could see the anger in her eyes.

"Cassy I don't understand why you would rather go out that. I mean look you could have this all the time. I bet she doesn't even know how to satisfy your needs." As she spoke she slid her hands down her body suggestively.

It angered me, who did she think she was. I was about to step away from Castiel and hit her but Castiel pulled me back and crashed his lips onto mine. All I heard was an angry 'ugh' in the background and then the clicking of heels. Castiel hugged me tighter and pulled me into him even more, our bodies pressing against each other and he deepened the kiss. I was lost in La la Land for a few seconds and the I realised what was happening. I pushed myself away from Castiel and he let me go.

"You have seriously got to stop doing that!" I said looking like I was about to strangle him. He had no time to respond because we heard and excited gasp and I turned around to see Rosa walking towards me.

"Oh my gosh! You and Castiel are together!? Since when I want all the details!" She hugged me and I could see the excitement on her face.

"Rosa-" I started speaking but she cut me off.

"Oh and this makes it so much easier with the sleeping arrangements at the Christmas dinner. Castiel was going anyway band I was just about to invite you and Leigh was worried about where everyone would be sleeping because me and Leigh are obviously going to sleep together and then Lysander invited Violet and they're naturally going to stay in the same bedroom because it's easier that way but then there was only one room left and both of you are invited but now that I know you two are together you can both sleep in the same room." She finally finished and took a deep breath.

"Rosa but-"

"No arguments or 'can I sleep on the couch'."

"But you don't understand-"

"Yes I do! I have a boyfriend and the first time me and Leigh had to sleep in the same bed we felt a little worried but it will be fine I promise but I gotta go now okay. Christmas Eve, Lys-baby's house be there at 5 pm and Castiel would probably appreciate some lovely pj's" She said and winked before walking off.

"Rosa! Rosa!" I tried shouting her back but she was gone.

"Bring something sexy to sleep in." Castiel smirked and walked off.

I blushed but didn't say anything. At least now I had something to do. Our first Christmas in a new town and my sister was ditching me for her boyfriend and my auntie was flying off to Barbados.


Too soon it was time to go to Lysander's house. I said goodbye to my sister and grabbed my bags. I managed to do some last-minute present shopping and I bought a nice new dress for the dinner. I also bought some pj's since all the other ones I had were a bit too revealing.

I drove my car to Lysander's house and Rosa ran out to help me with my things.

"Everyone is here and I'm just putting the last touches to the dinner. By the way you look gorgeous in that dress. I'm sure Castiel will definitely want to skip straight to the dessert." She winked and me and I blushed.

"Rosa you are disgusting sometimes and about what you saw-" She interrupted me once again.

"Darling don't be embarrassed about me catching you two making out, it's natural plus if it makes you feel better one time Lys-baby caught me and Leigh whilst we were having sex." She said and smiled not caring about how her sentence sounded.

"Rosa! Too much information... I do not want to know about your and Leigh's sex life thanks very much." I replied.

"Oh I bet you do darling. Leigh really knows how to please-"

"Rosa stop please!" I answered clamping my hand over her mouth.

"Oh chill out it's normal to talk about these things. So what's Castiel like in bed?" She said as we stepped into the house and the guys were sat on the couch. They turned their heads to see who it was.

"I heard my name." Castiel said in a monotone voice.

"Oh Scar here was just telling me about yours and her sex life and she told me you're an animal in bed." She said and smirked.

"Omg No! Rosa what the hell. I never said anything. Omg please stop!" I said hiding my head in my hands from embarrassment.

"Oh did she now?" Castiel smirked and I felt like dying. They were doing this on purpose.

Violet came out of the door that I assumed lead to the kitchen and dining room.

"Dinner is served." She said politely and did a curtsey before Lysander kissed her hand and lead her back inside.

Leigh and Rosa had it all planned. Down to where everyone would be sitting. The table looked beautiful and I felt very guilty for not coming earlier and I was there now and there was no point in sulking. Leigh and Rosa were sat together. On Rosa's right was Lysander followed by Violet then Castiel and the of course me. It was a beautiful round table so we were all linked in a circle.

The dinner went by smoothly, the conversation flowed and so did the wine. By the end of the night we were all laughing and dancing to the radio. Everyone was drunk and that included me. Everyone was getting annoyed because Leigh and Rosa were just making out so we moved on to the presents.

"I want everyone to remember, only 1 present is to be opened tonight, the rest is for tomorrow." Leigh reminded us.

We went round in a circle. Violet got a brand new sketch pad, Rosa got some beautiful jewellery, Castiel got some CD's, Lysander got a pocket-watch, Leigh got some clothes and I got some dancing shoes since mine were getting wrecked. Whilst the guys stayed downstairs all the girls went upstairs to get changed.

I got changed into my pyjamas and came out of the bathroom to be met with Rosa's disapproving eyes.

"I knew you would do this." She said shaking her head.

"What did I do?" I asked even though I knew what she meant.

"Your pyjamas make you look like a Virgin Granny."

"Excuse me I like them and they are comfortable." I said looking down at them.

"Beauty is pain darling. Thankfully I have some back up pyjamas for you because I know what you are like." She said and rooted through her wardrobe and took out a small box out of it and handed it to me.

"Get changed into this and I will find out if you didn't and then there will be consequences. Now get out of the room because I need to get ready for Leigh." She winked.

"Ew gross. I'm leaving." I said and left her room making sure to close the door behind me.

I stepped into the the bathroom in mine and Castiel's room and opened up the box revealing the pyjamas which weren't pyjamas. It was black lingerie with red ribbon laced through it. There was also a throw to put over it but it didn't cover much since it was see-through but I had nothing else to wear since Rosa took everything off me.

I looked out into the bedroom and noticed Castiel wasn't there I jumped into bed and hid quickly under the covers. A few minutes later Castiel appeared and just chuckled when he saw me trying to pull the covers up higher. He didn't speak though, he went into the bathroom and took a shower. He came out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist but nothing else and I blushed as I couldn't help look at his abs.

I've sort of felt them before when we were on his bike but now I could see them clearly and they looked like he came out of a magazine.

"How long you gonna stare for little girl?" He smirked as he spoke.

I looked away in embarrassment of being caught staring. He would tease me about it for ages now. I cleared my mind and tried not to think about the fact that Castiel and I had to sleep in the same bed. I felt the bed move and a small breeze hit my back as Castiel was clearly getting under the covers.

"Listened to what I said I see?" He spoke and I turned on my other side to face him with a questionable look.

"The underwear." He spoke and my eyes widened at the fact that he knew. "When I was pulling the covers up to get in." He answered my question without me even having to ask it.

"Looks nice." He said and closed his eyes.

"You're what I would call a pervert." I said rolling my eyes.

"No I'm a guy. I'm also an animal in bed." He said laughing as he made reference to Rosa's comment.

"I never said that, she did it on purpose." I said in a defensive tone.

"Of course she did. I believe you Rapunzel." He said like it didn't bother him at all.

"This-" I pointed tome and him and the bed. "This is all your fault. If you hadn't had kissed me we wouldn't be in this mess." I said rolling my eyes and letting out an annoyed breath.

"Oh stop complaining. Princess not used to not getting what she wants?" He said and smiled.

"Shut up Castiel." I said and closed my eyes. I was done talking to him I just wanted to go to bed.

"Sweet Dreams Princess." Was all he said and there was no sarcastic or stupid remark to follow it.

He genuinely was being nice and actually meant it. A Christmas miracle...
