Christmas and Rest

by DaniMason

This is based on the original books in the Nancy Drew series. Sadly didn't have that category. This is a one-shot that MIGHT turn into more about Nancy and Ned. This is lightly based on Christmas Tree Farm by Taylor Swift.

I post all of my fanfiction on three accounts. One is Archiveofourown under the username FangirlWriter1!, under the username DaniMason, and on Wattpad under the name FangirlWriter. Finally, I have a Twitter (which is now X) Account with the username DaniMason2019. Please follow it for updates on my stories and other messages. I also have a Tumblr account with the username danimason2019.

My winter nights are taken up by static
Stress and holiday shopping traffic
But I close my eyes and I'm somewhere else
Just like magic
In my heart is a Christmas tree farm
Where the people would come
To dance under sparkling lights
Bundled up in their mittens and coats
And the cider would flow
And I just wanna be there tonight
Sweet dreams of holly and ribbon
Mistakes are forgiven
And everything is icy and blue
And you would be there too
Under the mistletoe
Watching the fire glow
And telling me, "I love you"
Just being in your arms
Takes me back to that little farm
Where every wish comes true
In my heart is a Christmas tree farm
There's a light in the barn
We'd run inside out from the cold
In the town, kids are dreaming of sleighs
And they're warm and they're safe
They wake to see a blanket of snow
Sweet dreams of holly and ribbon
Mistakes are forgiven
And everything is icy and blue
And you would be there too
Under the mistletoe
Watching the fire glow
And telling me, "I love you"
Just being in your arms
Takes me back to that little farm
Where every wish comes true
Baby, yeah
And when I'm feeling alone
You remind me of home
Oh, baby, baby, Merry Christmas
And when the world isn't fair
I'll pretend that we're there
Baby, baby, Merry Christmas
(To you)
Under the mistletoe (to you)
Watching the fire glow
And telling me, "I love you"
Oh, baby, baby, Merry Christmas
Oh, baby, baby, Merry Christmas (darling)
Oh, baby, baby, Merry Christmas
I love you
Oh, baby, baby, Merry Christmas
Oh, baby, baby, Merry Christmas (I just want you to know)
Oh, baby, baby, Merry Christmas
Where every wish comes true
I love you

Nancy was sitting in her family's bungalow home, specifically in the living room drinking a glass of egg nog. With all her mysteries and busy life, the holidays were far more frantic than the average person's holiday. This year she promised Ned that she would spend Christmas Eve with Ned's family and take the holidays slow. It was grading on her and it was only December 14th.

Just then she heard someone knocking at the door. Walking up to the door she saw Ned through a window. Her heart beat in excitement. Nancy opened the door with a smile for him and they walked to the couch to snuggle and watch "White Christmas."

It truly was lovely and Nancy felt safe and this is what Christmas was to her, not the hustle of the holiday cheer but the calm and safety of home, the people, and the place.
