Happy Holidays!

I know it's a short fic. I actually had an entirely other Christmas fic planned, but it was way too long and I wouldn't have had it finished by Christmas. So, I'll just leave that Christmas story for next year. Instead, here is a short and sweet Christmas fic. I hope you guys enjoy.

2041

Alucard, Seras, and Sebastian were perfectly sound asleep in bed. It was early in the morning and the three had just gotten off a very long mission. They were tired and looked forward to sleeping the day away. However, none of them planned on their rambunctious six year old son to come running into the room to wake them up. The small, thin child had messy black hair that brushed over the top of his shoulders. His skin was milky white and ever so soft, much like his mother's. His tiny fingernails and toenails were a solid black that had a slight gleam to them. On the back of his left hand was a perfect pentagram that was identical to his father's. The boy came running into his parents' room in his black plaid pajamas and jumped right up into their bed. He landed right on his mother's legs, causing the blonde to whine in her sleep from being disturbed. But she refused to open her eyes, like his fathers who tried sleeping even with him in the room. The child's large red eyes looked at each adult carefully before he finally announced his presence.

"Mama, it's snowing!" Harrison told her as he tried shaking her awake.

"No," Seras groaned and pulled the covers up closer towards her face.

"Yes, it is!" He corrected her with a wide smile. "It's snowing! I want to play outside! Can I, please? I would like to play in the snow!"

"Harrison, go back to your bed." Sebastian demanded without opening his eyes.

"We're trying to sleep." Seras added in a whine and she pulled the covers up even further. The six year old flopped down on top of his mother in the middle of the bed. The small blonde grunted, but didn't bother to push him off.

"Harrison," Alucard sighed. "Leave your mother alone. We're trying to sleep."

"But Dad," The child whined before he crawled on top of Alucard. "I can't sleep! It's snowing! I. Love. The. Snow!" He emphasized carefully to get his point across. "Please, can I play outside? Just for a little while?"

"We'll play outside later." Seras said sternly. Her tone gave off how frustrated she was getting with him, but the child didn't take the hint. "Go back to bed now."

"But it probably won't be snowing later!" Harrison argued.

"Harrison!" His mother raised her voice, something she rarely did. Infuriated, the Draculina bolted up in bed and finally cracked open her red eyes to pierce her son with a dark look. The boy gasped and drew back in slight fear. His fingers curled into his father's shirt out of comfort that Alucard would protect him.

"Your fathers and I are tired. We are trying to sleep and you are being extremely rude. You will go back to bed and go to sleep or Santa will know that you are being bad." Seras warned him. Harrison's eyes widened and his mouth fell ajar.

"No!" The little demon whined. "I've been super good this year, Mum! Santa will come tonight, won't he?!"

"I cannot believe you are filling our child's head with such nonsense." Sebastian murmured as he kept his eyes closed.

"I can't believe he actually believes in Santa." Alucard added. Something shattered in the six year old's eyes when he heard his fathers say this.

"What?" He whispered. "Santa...isn't...real?" Immediately, Alucard and Sebastian's eyes shot open when realizing their mistake. When catching the scent of their child's tears, something stirred in the old monsters; an urge to comfort their son. "Mum, is Santa really not real? Is...he not coming?" His mum, completely shocked, just sat there with wide eyes.

"Um…" She muttered, uncertain of what to say exactly. However, her mates were already taking action. The males bolted up in bed. Harrison nearly fell right off of Alucard, but the elder vampire caught him and placed him gently on top of his lap.

"Of course Saint Nicholas is real." The No Life King told his son as he used his thumb to wipe his tears away.

"Then...why did you say…" Harrison was cut off.

"We're exhausted, Harrison." Sebastian replied with a warm smile. "We didn't know what we were saying. Of course we didn't mean any of it. Isn't that right, Seras?"

"R-right!" His mother exclaimed, but was too tired and too flabbergasted to say anything more than that.

"You have behaved fairly well this year, Harrison. And for that good behavior, Saint Nicholas will visit here tonight." Alucard promised him. The child used the back of his tattooed hand to wipe the moisture from his eyes. He then smiled up at his parents.

"I'm sorry I woke you guys up." He whispered. Feeling shameful for almost spoiling Christmas for their six year old son, Sebastian spoke.

"You said that you wanted to play outside in the snow?" He asked in a sigh, knowing that he was going to regret this. Harrison nodded his head. "Alright, we can go outside so you can play, but only for an hour. You will then return to bed, Harrison, and stay there." The boy frantically nodded his head with a large smile on his face. However, Alucard and Seras looked at him in disbelief. The little vampire actually looked like she just might murder him.

"Yes, Sir!" Harrison exclaimed before he jumped off Alucard's lap so he could get dressed. The second their son left the room, Seras groaned in exhaustion and fell limp on top of the bed.

"Sebastian, your offspring is a handful." The small blonde told him as she rubbed her face. "I want to say that he will not be having any siblings, but..."

"Don't worry, I concur." Sebastian interrupted with a deep sigh. He then lied back down beside her.

"Thank God for that." Alucard murmured and fell beside his mate, utterly exhausted.

"He will not be having any siblings is what I wanted to say." Seras proceeded before she was interrupted. "But I'm pregnant." It took a second or two, but the males eventually lifted their heads to look at her in disbelief. Tired, the little vampire drew the sheets over herself and curled up. "Merry Christmas," She murmured as she tried falling back asleep before her son returned. Too tired to comprehend what she just told them, Alucard and Sebastian let their heads fall back onto their pillows.

"We'll celebrate later." Sebastian muttered.

"Okay," Seras yawned. "But that's it. Two kids is enough. No more after that. Deal?"

"Deal," Her mates agreed. Unfortunately, their son came running back into the room with his winter coat, gloves, and wool hat on.

"Mummy, I'm ready to go outside!" Harrison purred.

"Sebastian, remind me to kill you later." Seras whispered.

"I'll assist you." Alucard promised. The parents then forced themselves to wake up and crawl out of bed.

Harrison was beyond excited as he ran about the dense wooded area on the Hellsing grounds. He didn't wander far from his parents who were all sitting slumped against a tree. His mother was basically on the verge of passing out. She was hugging her legs to her chest as her head hung freely. It was possible that she was fast asleep already, but her son didn't notice as he tried catching snowflakes. Alucard and Sebastian were leaned back against the same tree Seras was. The demon tiredly watched his little one to make sure he stayed out of trouble. The elder vampire could barely keep his eyes open, but did his best to watch his son. Occasionally, he glanced at Seras to make sure she was alright, despite her being asleep. His mate was wearing a dark brown leather jacket that was tied off. With it, she wore a white scarf wrapped snugly around her neck and a white wool hat. He had no idea why his son and mate felt the need to dress in warm clothing as if the cold would bother them. Then again, he supposed he had no say because he normally wore several layers of clothing and a long coat every day of the year. He glanced back at Harrison to find his son trying to roll snow up on the ground in the form of a small ball. Seeing how content and happy his child was, Alucard decided to close his eyes to get at least a few minutes of sleep like Seras. But the second he closed his eyes, he heard a thump sound before hearing a familiar cry. Alucard and Sebastian instinctively lifted their heads to find that their son had tripped and landed on his ball of snow. Tears ran down his face, purely upset that he failed at making a snowman. The fathers got up to come to their son's rescue. Walking over to him, Sebastian lifted the six year old with ease.

"Harrison," He whispered and placed his son back on his feet. Kneeling in front of him, he attempted to clean his face with a handkerchief. "Are you alright?"

"I fell on my snowman." The boy cried as he pointed at the crumbled ball of snow. Alucard and Sebastian looked down at the pile of snow in uncertainty. That was supposed to be a snowman?

"It's alright, son, we can help you make another one." The demon promised. This seemed to change their son's demeanor instantly. His eyes lit up and the excitement practically glowed off of him.

"A big one!" Harrison exclaimed while he emphasized with his arms, showing them how big he wanted it. The males chuckled at the little demon.

"Yes, a big one." Sebastian agreed with a nod.

"A simple snowman, Michaelis. Don't upstage a six year old." Alucard advised him.

"Just help build it." The demon grumbled as he started gathering snow with his child. Little by little, the three monsters built a snowman. It nearly came to Sebastian's height, much to Harrison's delight, but wasn't finished. Their son ran around to look for two perfect sticks that would make up the snowman's arms. Afterwards, he searched intently for two round stones that would be his eyes. All the while, he muttered incoherently to himself, talking about how amazing the snowman will be. Once finding all the items he was looking for, he gave it to his father before he ran back towards the manor.

"Harrison!" Sebastian raised his voice as he and Alucard watched after the wild child. The boy turned in the snow and looked back at his fathers. "Where are you heading off to? Don't you want to finish your snowman?" The boy pointed towards the manor.

"I'm getting something for the snowman!" Harrison yelled back, but his words came out such a jumbled mess from his excitement. He then took off running again. The tired fathers dropped their heads with a sigh. Neither was in the mood to chase after the little hellion, so they decided to just work on the snowman until their offspring got back. Sebastian placed the 'eyes' on the head of the snowman and then stuck the twigs in its torso. Looking over his work carefully, the demon frowned.

"This is quite possibly the worst snowman I've ever made." Sebastian grumbled in disappointment. "Positively atrocious, I'm ashamed."

"Again, this is for a six year old. The snowman doesn't need to be above average." Alucard reminded him.

"I'll leave his alone and I can build a second one. Perhaps I can build a character from one of his beloved books?" The demon responded with a smirk.

"You want to build the 'perfect' snowman right next to our son's snowman?" The No Life King questioned with an arched brow. "Are you trying to make him feel bad or do you just want him to hate you for upstaging him?" The demon looked back at the snowman in disappointment.

"It's a disgrace that I'll have to live with." He sighed in defeat. Their son then came running up carrying very strange items.

"I want to put this on the snowman!" Harrison exclaimed as he handed his father Alucard's red fedora and glasses. Alucard and Sebastian couldn't help but chuckle at the unusual child.

"Very well," The demon responded and placed those items on the snowman. Harrison clapped in joy and laughed.

"Here," Alucard snickered as he removed his cravat to tie it around the snowman's 'neck'.

"I love it!" Harrison shouted while he jumped around in his spot. He then pointed towards his mother. "Let's make a mummy snowman now! And then...then Daddy!" He pointed up at Sebastian. The demon placed a hand on top of his son's head.

"God, you are precious." Sebastian whispered with a charming smirk and a warm look in his eyes. The boy grabbed his father's hand.

"Are we going to make a mummy snowman?" He asked. "Can we? Please?"

"Yes," Alucard chuckled with a nod.

"Yes!" Harrison exclaimed happily. While his fathers started gathering snow for a second snowman, the little demon ran over to his sleeping mum. "Mummy?" The boy called for her as he poked the top of her head. "Mummy?" Seras sleepily lifted her head and blinked stupidly at her son.

"Harris?" She whispered.

"Mum, can I use your scarf and hat?" He asked while he swayed from side to side as he waited patiently for an answer. The mother stared at him for a moment before she finally processed his question.

"Um….sure." She murmured before taking off those items to hand them to her son.

"Thank you!" Harrison chirped before he ran back over to his fathers. His mother almost instantly fell back asleep with a groan. The three males of the family carefully worked on the snowmen. Harrison couldn't sit still for a second. Purely amused and beyond excited he kept laughing and running around the snowmen while he gathered more sticks and stones. Alucard and Sebastian built a "mummy" snowman and a "daddy" one. Even though they were doing most of the work, they couldn't help smiling when seeing how happy their son was. The "mummy" snowman was slightly shorter than the other two. It wore Seras' wool scarf and hat, along with the stone eyes and thin twig-like arms. It wasn't perfect nor did it look anything similar to their mate and his mother, but it still thrilled the child. The other "daddy" snowman sported a black tie and, at their son's request, had two twigs sticking out the top of its head to resemble horns. It was an absolutely ridiculous looking snowman, but it did make the three of them chuckle. Much to Harrison's delight, Sebastian even made a "son" snowman that was way smaller than the "mummy" snowman. Quite happily, the little demon donated his gloves, hat, and scarf to his snowman doppelganger. When they were all finished and were standing before the small family of snowmen, Harrison applauded all of their hard work.

"It's perfect!" He shouted while he bounced up and down in his spot.

"Settle down," Sebastian instructed him while he placed a hand on top of his son's head. He subconsciously ruffled Harrison's hair lightly while he admired the snowmen. "I don't want you hyper before bed." The mention of going back to bed brought a frown to the child's face. Dissatisfied, he pulled back his head to look up at his father.

"When do we have to go back in?" The boy asked softly. The older demon glanced down at him curiously before he pulled a pocket watch out to look at the time.

"We can stay out here for another twenty minutes." Sebastian answered with a small smile. He then glanced back at his son. "Why don't you play some more?" He suggested, earning a bright smile from the young boy. "But stay close. I don't want you wandering off out of our sight."

"Yes, Sir!" Harrison exclaimed through giggles. He then ran off to play in the snow.

"Hmn," Alucard hummed while he watched that little monster have the time of his life.

"What?" Sebastian questioned as he glanced over at the elder vampire. There was a gleam in the No Life King's soft red eyes.

"Perhaps having another child won't be so bad." Alucard answered. The two then shifted their heads to look at their sleepy mate. She was still in that same position, leaning back against the tree. It absolutely amazed them that she could sleep propped up against a rough tree while it was snowing. Wasn't she uncomfortable in the slightest? Alucard couldn't help but chuckle at his adorable mate.

"Perhaps," The demon muttered while gazing lovingly at her. Such a warm smile crossed over his face at the thought of the baby that was currently growing inside of her. "Hopefully Harrison will be ecstatic to know that he's getting a little brother or sister."

"I absolutely hated having a younger sibling." The elder vampire couldn't help but admit. "They're clingy, annoying, loud and obnoxious, and always get in the damn way."

"Do me a favor, Alucard, and don't be the one to inform Harrison of this big news. I don't want him to have a negative reaction when finding out that Seras is pregnant. We want him to be happy about it." Sebastian replied. Unexpectedly, a snowball came hurtling at Alucard and hit him right in the face. After feeling the impact, he heard childish laughter to his right. The corner of the No Life King's lips curled into a sinister grin. Calmly, he shifted his head to peek at his child from the corner of his eye. There was little Harrison. His hands were over his mouth to hide that infectious smile while he laughed hard at throwing a snowball at him. His laugh hadn't changed a bit since he was a baby. It was so warm and soft, making the old monsters feel so jovial.

"I am quite proud of your aim." The elder vampire told him. "I see that you have been working on it."

"Thank you," His son responded through giggles.

"Harrison," Alucard called out to him before the man dropped to his knees to start gathering some snow. He balled it up into his hand, forming a perfect spherical shape.

"Yes?" The boy answered innocently. He reminded them so much of his mother, especially when he placed his hands behind his back and stared up at them with those large, pure eyes. He watched his father curiously as the man rose back to his full height.

"Would you like to see how fast I can piss off your mother?" The elder vampire purred just before he threw the snowball directly at Harrison's mother. The snow splattered in her face and got caught in her bangs. She was scared awake from that unexpected action. Seras jerked and her eyes flew open before she looked up at the culprit. Her son was laughing hysterically, finding it unbelievably funny. Alucard was grinning from ear to ear, feeling so very proud for tossing snow right in her face while she was sleeping. And Sebastian was merely chuckling into his hand, trying to stifle his laughter so he wouldn't get in trouble with her. Seras brushed the snow out of her hair while she stared at Alucard in utter confusion. What just happened? As if she was uncertain that he actually threw snow at her, she glanced upwards. Did snow fall from one of the branches and landed on her? Unfortunately, when she looked away the elder vampire had gathered more snow into his hand to make another ball. Just as she was looking back at him another snowball was hitting her in the face.

Much to Alucard's pleasure, her red eyes darkened with annoyance and a low growl emitted from her. Her left arm became intangible as it morphed into a mass of black tendrils. Those dangerous appendages shot out towards her former master. That cocky bastard stepped off to the side, missing her tendrils by an inch. If only he realized that she hadn't been aiming at him. Her tendrils slammed hard into a tree, causing a thick blanket of snow from each branch to come raining down on Alucard and Sebastian both. It definitely took the males by surprise and caused their son to laugh even harder than he already was. A smirk swept across Seras' face and she couldn't help but laugh with her son. As her tendrils returned back to its original form, the mother held her arms out for her child. Naturally, the child sprinted over to practically jump into her arms. Seras happily wrapped her arms around the little tyke and hugged him to her body.

"Oh, my little Harrison." The small blonde purred as she placed kisses all over his cheek. "Are you getting into trouble with your naughty fathers?"

"Yeah!" Harrison exclaimed through laughs. He then shifted in her arms to point at something behind him. "We also made snowmen!" Seras glanced over his head to see the family of snowmen. That mischievous smirk on her face transitioned to a warm, bright smile.

"Oh, my God!" The Draculina laughed in amazement. "That is so cute!"

"There are daddy snowmen, a mummy snowman, and a Harrison snowman!" The child explained while he pointed at each one.

"I see," Seras whispered and looked over each snowman carefully. So, that's why he needed her hat and scarf. She thought while she stared at her snowman counterpart. The poor wool hat had been stretched out. It had been her favorite, but oh well. She couldn't truly be mad because she liked what her mates and child built together.

"Hey, Mum?" Harrison proceeded as he turned back around in her arms to look up at her.

"Yes?" She responded and glanced down at him.

"When is Santa coming tonight?" He asked the same question he asked her for the last three years.

"He'll come and be gone before you wake up tonight." Seras answered.

"Are you sure?" Harrison asked with a look of uncertainty. It broke the mother's heart a little when seeing her son frown. She could see something simmering in his eyes. A look of disappointment perhaps? She was unsure, but it bothered her greatly to see her child so upset.

"Yes, why?" The small blonde asked with furrowed brows.

"Because I'm a demon," The boy murmured. His gaze fell downwards as he started playing with the tie on her jacket. "Demons are bad. Santa doesn't visit the bad kids."

"Harrison, you're not bad." Seras corrected him. "You are the best kid anyone could ever have." She wrapped her arm around his waist and pulled him closer so she could rest her head against his. "You are an amazing son and I would love to have another just like you." She proceeded. "I promise you that Santa will visit here tonight." But this didn't seem to ease her son's mind. In came one of his fathers to the rescue. Sebastian, with snow clinging to his hair and clothes, knelt in front of his mate and son.

"Harrison," The Prince of Hell spoke as he cupped his son's face into his hands. Harrison glanced up at his father curiously. "You may be a demon, but I believe that you don't have a single evil bone in your body." A smirk then crossed over Sebastian's face. "Luckily for you, you take after your mother more, who is one of the purest creatures we have ever met. You, my dear son, are virtuous. Dare I say, even angelic? You are not evil." After hearing his father's comforting words, the young boy leaned up to wrap his arms around his neck.

"Thank you, Daddy." Harrison murmured.

"You're welcome," The older demon whispered as he wrapped his arms around his son to further comfort him.

"How about you open an early Christmas gift?" Alucard suggested as he knelt down beside Sebastian. Harrison perked right up in Seras' lap. His wide eyes flickered up to stare at his other father in pure amazement.

"What?!" He exclaimed. "Really?"

"Why not?" The elder vampire purred. "Perhaps it will make you feel better and tide you over until tonight." The boy anxiously nodded his head.

"It would make me feel better!" He responded while a wide smile crossed over his face.

"I thought it would." Alucard chuckled. He then reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a small object that was wrapped in bright red paper and fastened with a bow. "This is from all of us." Handing the package over to him, the boy eagerly ripped into the paper to see what his gift was. Almost immediately, his eyes lit up as he stared down at his newest, most favorite gift in the whole world. It was a small, stuffed elephant toy. The fabric was a dark grey and unbelievably soft. He had small dark blue eyes and a little trunk that curved upwards. He also had big floppy ears that rested on each side of his small head. Strangely, the six year old was fascinated by elephants. Reasons unknown to his parents, elephants were his favorite animal ever since he was at least two. And seeing that look on his face with his mouth hanging open, they knew that they made the right decision getting him a stuffed toy of that particular animal.

"Wow," The child softly exclaimed as he gently caressed one of the elephant's ears. His other hand gripped the elephant tighter by it's torso, not expecting it to suddenly make a noise when triggering an inner button. The elephant made a soft trumpeting sound. "Wow!" His eyes became even larger as all that excitement resurfaced. Pulling back his head, he smiled up at Alucard. "Wow!" He exclaimed for a third time. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" The fathers chuckled while Sebastian gathered the torn wrapping paper and balled it up in his hand. "Wow! Oh, my God!" Harrison crushed that little elephant to his chest and hugged it tightly. Once more the elephant made a sound when the button had been triggered for a second time. Seras smiled warmly at that look on his face. She combed her fingers through his hair while he marveled at his new toy.

"Alright, Harrison." She whispered. "It's time to go back to bed now." She helped the child out of her lap so she could finally stand up. She brushed the snow off of her rear while her son proceeded to inspect his toy at every angle. "And this time you will stay in bed. Okay?" Harrison nodded his head, but didn't look up from his elephant.

"Uh-huh," He muttered in response. He then glanced up at his mother before holding up his new elephant. "Can I take him to bed?"

"Of course," The mother laughed.

"His name is going to be Oskar! Or Horton! Or Heffalump! Or Mowgli!" The six year old listed off names while his parents herded him back into the manor and to his room.

"We may be exhausted and a little irritable, but it was not a bad start to this holiday." Alucard purred while he 'subtly' caressed his mate's back side. Seras jumped, but was pretty used to being groped all the time by both of her mates. Hungrily, the elder vampire leaned down to further play with his little mate. He brushed his lips over the shell of her ear and whispered more to her. "Harrison got a present, you already informed Michaelis and me of a present that's on it's way. I guess it's Michaelis and my turn to give you your Christmas gift." A deviant little smirk spread across their mate's face and she laughed openly. The little beauty glanced up at him.

"I didn't give you and Sebastian your gifts yet." Seras purred with a wink. "I think you'll both like them."

"Do give us a hint." Sebastian whispered as he moved in closer towards his mate. Cautiously, the mother glanced down at her child. Even though he was distracted, she was hesitant to say any more.

"I don't think so. Not with Harrison here." She told them.

"Use telepathy, darling." The demon spoke in a sensual hushed voice.

No, She teased them.

"You both can wait until tonight. For now, we are getting some sleep." Seras giggled.

"Completely unfair," Sebastian snickered.

"We are wide awake now, Draculina." Alucard added. "How can we sleep, especially knowing that you are hiding exciting gifts from us?"

"Oh, I will make it simple for the both of you." The little vampire responded. "If you don't let me sleep now, we won't be sleeping together later, if you get my drift. So, you both best let me sleep or you will regret it." Instantly, both men distanced themselves from Seras, getting a good laugh out of her. "That's what I thought."

The End

I hope you guys enjoyed.

Happy Holidays!
