Kage: T.T I took so long to update, my apologies, I've been busy but hey at least next week I only have four more day's of school. ^^

The only bad part is that its so…-groans- -.-

Ah! You all deserve delicious maple chocolate chunk cookies and hot maple chocolate for being so sweet! ^^ Thank you Inumaru12(That's funny, was I unknowingly reading your mind~? And Ok, By the way, I love the song's you choosed -adds request's to list-), Hikair(Sure! Can you please name a song and pairing you desire or would you like for me to chose?), moonlightgaia123(I know what song you're talking about because I love that song ^^ What pairing would you like?), TheNextAlice(They are a slight annoyance…~ And thank you ^^), thatgirlwithglasses(I think I like Obsessed!Alfred a bit too much. ^^U I'm already thinking of more stories with him and Mattie.), IWillSeizeYourVitals(You sir, and or, madam have an Awesome(Yes with a capital letter. :P) username and done! -writes down request on list- And I agree with you about the Obsessed!Alfred.)

Thank you all again!

However before I allow you to leave to read the one-shot I have an…

Important Announcement!

No, this story is not going into hiatus or anything like that but I want to ask your opinion on something.

So here it is:

(I had already written it before writing the top part that is why it doesn't match. ^^U)

Well, I am very surprised and thankful that you all love my Maple series and I was wondering if I should make more Series, you know how this is based on Songs? Well what if I made another with only Seme!Canada pairings or strictly Uke!Canada pairings? Or if I made one based off Flower meanings? Or another on Creatures/fairytales or, I don't know, something like that?

I don't know, I don't want to make it seem strange for new reader's who chose to read my stories. Would any of you mind? I could make a lot of different series though… -muses- it possibly wont be that bad…

Though if I do that it may take a moment for me to set up the different series, mostly I was thinking of a flower meaning series but it depends on you because I value your opinion. If you believe I should open another series after this one I think that would be easier. ^^ Then I can give all my attention to this series instead of juggling them and having to place more attention on one over the other.

That reminds me, how would you feel if I turned up the rating?

And that is it. Anonymous Void, I hope you enjoy your request.

Enjoy~!


Santa is coming to town: FinCan

Warning: Fluff...?~

Matthew hummed to himself as he set up little decorations across his home. Cutesy Christmas decorated speakers filled the room with soft cheery music. Kumajirou slept in front of the fireplace a small Santa hat hanging from his left ear. Looking over at the naked Christmas tree Matthew bit his bottom lip and instead went over to fix the little items above his fireplace, making sure to be careful of Kumajirou; he fought off the urge to begin on the Christmas tree.

Besides.

Tino promised to come over and help him set up.

"Santa clause is coming to town!"

Pausing, Matthew slowly sat and grabbed onto his mug before taking a sip of the chocolate and maple concoction.

"He's making a list, he's checking it twice, he's gunna find out who's naughty or nice."

Does he really? It seems like too many names to know, Matthew thought to himself as he drinks from his mug. The cup is still warm in Matthew's hands as the next role of lyrics comes on.

"He sees you when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake, h-"

Matthew muses to himself for a moment and allows the song to play until its end. Standing when the song finishes Matthew turns off his radio cutting off another song during the first lyric.

Going over to the coffee table Matthew picked up his mug, drank what was left of his drink, and went into the kitchen before placing his cup into the sink. Humming to himself he decided to make maple chocolate chunk cookies, Tino said he enjoyed them.

Washing his hands, after getting the supplies and turning on the oven to preheat, Matthew began on the cookies. While cooking he took no notice of the door opening or of the sound of a snow-soaked coat being placed on the rack. However, when he was suddenly hugged from behind Matthew stiffened and squeaked.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." relaxing slightly Matthew paused in stirring the batter to turn and hug his familiar.

"Hi Tino." Tino smiled happily and Matthew felt his cheek's color lightly.

"What are you making?" Tino asked looking slightly at the batter.

"Maple Chocolate chunk cookies." Matthew replied gaining a positive response from the Finn.

"They should be ready for the oven so you can go to the living room and I'll join you shortly." Matthew said pushing his glasses back up, unknowingly getting flour on his nose. Tino giggled gaining a confused look from the Canadian. Picking up a napkin the Finn gently took hold of the Canadian's glasses before rubbing away the flour. Matthew's face heated up in embarrassment.

Still smiling the Finn carefully placed the Canadian's glasses back into place before excusing himself. After Tino left Matthew turned back to the cookies, seeing that the batter was indeed done he went threw his cupboard before grabbing a cookie sheet. Grabbing some nonstick cooking spray Matthew prepared the sheet before rolling little hand full's of cookie dough and placing them on the sheet.

"He see's you when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake."

Raising his head Matthew realized Tino must have turned on the radio. Smiling to himself he hummed along to the song playing.

"Hey Tino."

Matthew just remembered a conversation he and Alfred had had earlier.

"Hey Mattie." Alfred said drinking heavily from his mug of hot chocolate-with a mix of maple syrup.

"Hmm?" Matthew hummed as he took a sip of his own drink.

"Well I just realized, y'know that song? 'Santa is coming to town'?" Alfred had placed his mug onto the table, Matthew politely did the same and gave his brother his full attention.

"Uh-huh?"

"Well if Tino is Santa could he really know who's been naughty or nice? Could he really know when were sleeping or awake?"

"…" Matthew didn't know how to answer.

"Yes Matthew?" Tino reentered the kitchen giving Matthew a look of worry. Matthew smiled to reassure him that nothing was wrong.

"Well I wanted to ask you something that has been on my mind." as Matthew spoke he placed the tray of uncooked cookies into the preheated oven before cleaning up the tiny mess he made of dirty dishes. Placing them in the sink he got to work as Tino grabbed a clean rag and dried the dishes Matthew cleaned.

"You're Santa right?" Matthew questioned, because he wasn't completely sure.

"Uh-huh?" Tino answered though albeit questioningly.

"And you know that song 'Santa's coming to town'?" Matthew asked handing Tino a ring of measuring cups.

"Yup!" Tino agreed.

"Is it true?"

Tino was silent for a moment as though thinking of an answer.

"Some of it, I mean I know when someone's naughty or nice. Actually, I can see the good or bad thing they did, but the other stuff about knowing when someone were to be awake or if they were going to sleep or how they shouldn't pout, cry and, you know, other things isn't entirely true. I mean I guess I kinda know but not 'I'm watching you go to bed slash get out of bed' kind of way. It's more of a subconscious 'Oh that person is asleep slash waking up' kind of thing." the Finn shrugged his shoulders at the weirdness of it.

"Oh, that seems strange." Matthew uttered, blinking.

"It was at the beginning but now it's sort of second nature." placing the last dish into the cupboard they both jumped when the oven beeped. Matthew grabbed an oven mitt, red with white maple leaves of course, before opening the oven and removing the tray of freshly baked cookies. The smell of chocolate and maple syrup filled the air making Matthew hum in bliss, placing the tray on top of the oven Matthew allowed them to cool. He quickly shut the oven off and placed the mitts inside of a drawer.

"We'll have to wait for them to cool." Tino giggled gaining a questioning gaze from Matthew.

"If Peter were here he would have already taken a cookie, he has a very big sweet tooth." Tino mused.

"I can guess." Matthew replied with a smile.

Tino nodded and sat at the table, Matthew joined immediately.

"What is it like?"

"What is what like?"

"Being Santa." Matthew clarified.

"Oh, well," Tino suddenly smiled brightly making Matthew blink in slight confusion as the Finn turned to him and grab his hands, "why don't you join me this year!"

Matthew's jaw dropped.

"Y-you mean it?"

The Finn nodded excitedly.

"S-sure I…I mean it seems like so much fun and I…I-er-yes I would love to join." Matthew stuttered smiling brightly.

"Great! Oh you just wait Matthew you're going to have so much fun!" Tino said excitedly hugging the Canadian. Matthew held the Finn closer breathing in his scent of peppermint and snow.

"I think you're right."

'Though the best part of this is that I'll be able to spend more time with you.'

They both were unaware of their matching thoughts.


This was albeit hard to write because it kept getting random and out of topic. ^^U

But I think this is okay.

Anonymous Void, I hope this was to your liking.

Review if you believe I deserve one and polite criticism is appreciated.

If you have any requests please name the pairing, song, artist(person who sings it), and any other details you think are appropriate. No need to ask if I would mind and even if you already have a request, I would be more then happy to take your requests. ^^

Thank you for reading.
