Little Christmas Magic:
Boris Yeltsin: Awww, thanks. Okay, understandable maybe it was nostalgia. *Giggles* Merry Christmas Day to you.
They walk along, umbrella over their heads, good cover from the rain pouring down. As Luka holds his angelic melody closer, he smiles hearing her squeak. Aqua blue eyes follow her movements, as she pulls away finding a poor puppy in ally. The animal shivering from the horrid weather around them. Gently picking up the dirt pup, Luka smiles tenderly as she tries to clean off his stuck up possibly tan yellow fur back to color.
"Come on, lets head into the coffee shop."
Luka states arm out stretched, she smiles kissing his left cheek. The puppy barks in agreement. Leaving the couple laughing once again they walk on. The sweet smells of caffeine and delicious sweets (Don't tell the Dupain-Chengs) raises the warmth in the shop's relaxed warm atmosphere.
The puppy safely still in her arms, Luka's left arm around her waist. Finding a table, not as difficult as they first thought. Now a waiter was even faster.
"Hello and welcome to Comfy Cafe. I'll be your waiter Daniel. What could I start you off with-"
His dark green eyes finally look up from getting his note pad and pencil, to be frozen staring at the blunette holding a stray pup.
"-Forgive me. But is your name Marinette Dupain-Cheng?!"
Marinette's bluebell eyes widen, quick glance to Luka whom places the menu down from his face. Turning to Daniel, she smiles small.
"Yes, I am. How'd you kno-"
"Merry Christmas Eve, little sister."
Daniel smiles so brightly it shocks her more thrn his statement. Marinette subconsciously squeezes the poor puppy in her arms.
Just before Marinette can say anything. Daniel does quickly. Scribbling an order and moving to the kitchen doors. Luka gently lays a hand on her shoulder smiling.
"Marinette, let him explain. I feel his honest melody, don't you?"
She smiles softly at Luka, as the puppy licks her bare fingers. She giggles, they chat for a bit but it appears Daniel is pretty quick on his feet. He has food they didn't order.
"Don't worry about payment. I took care of it. It's actually the end of my shift."
Marinette's more shocked, Luka just smiles gesturing for Daniel to take sit. He does so across from his "little sister".
"I'm aware your curious, probably more confused. Please, allow me to explain. Your father Tom Dupain doesn't know I exist but my mother has talked about him enough. See, Marinette I knew about you only because of your amazing designs with Jagged Stone."
He takes a calming breath, as Luka spoon feeds Marinette some hot soup. Seeing the two interact, Daniel can feel the love they share.
He carefully moves to wipe dirt off the puppy. Smiling as he and Marinette lock eyes.
"Let me guess, Tom never told you he was married for 5 years in America before your mother here in Paris?"
He states so casually, Marinette gasps. Luka grips her shoulder. Immediately, she starts taking deep breathes.
"I'm not upset by any of this. Truly I'm glad to have met my little sister. It seems your surrounded by love. Look I'm not going to force a sibling bond on you-"
Now Daniel is cut off, Marinette leaps across the table to hug him. (Luka moved their meals before that action, knowing his girl) the puppy jumped off her lap at that.
"Daniel, thank you. We'll meet here tomorrow during your shift and talk more. Merry Christmas big brother."
THE END!
