I walked around, admiring the snow as it slowly fell from the sky. I smiled and continued my walk to the ocean-like place where I would be meeting the others. I cautiously walked towards the entrance before pushing it open, hearing the faintest jingle of a collar and the soft sound of paws hitting the ground.

"Spirit!" I joyfully cried, crouching down and giving the land dolphin a hug. He barked in response as I pulled away, examining his features. For the first time, Spirit was wearing a red sort of cloth, clothes was it? No matter. He looked adorable in it anyways.

"Where is everyone else?" I asked my furry friend, setting him down. Spirit merely barked in response and bounded off into the hallway with me close behind. 

When I finally caught up, Spirit was waiting for me in front of some large doors, the one that lead to the large body of water with sea creatures inside. I pushed open the doors and gasped in delight. Everywhere I looked was filled with red, green, and white flashing fireflies, with sweet desserts and more.

The first person I saw however, was dressed in this green cloth, with a point hat and oddly pointed ears. I soon realized that this was Sora. I giggled at his odd attire, "What are you wearing??" I managed out. He just smiled at me, holding up a brown cloth. "We have one for you too!" He said, irritated.

I felt my blood drain as I saw what he was holding up.

-----------------------------------------------

I emerged from the bathroom wearing the brown cloth with Ruka, dressed as an elf, by my side. It turns out, I was a raindeer while Spirit was also an elf. Umi came bounding towards us soon after with Sora at his heels. I was then informed by Ruka that Umi was a snowman and Sora this guy named Santa Claus? Apparently Santa is this old fat jolly guy that comes around once a year and gives gifts to all the boys and girls.

How come Sora, Umi, and I never got gifts >:(

This Santa guy stinks.

-------------------------------------------

I sat near the waters edge, away from the Christmas party that the workers here had thrown for us. I dipped my feet in and pet Spirit the land dolphin next to me. I heard shuffling next to me and glanced over to see Sora sitting next to me.

There was silence for a while. If I'm being honest it was kind of comforting. Sora soon broke it.

"So.. what are you doing away from the party..?" He awkwardly stated. I giggled, before turning to face him. "Just thinking." I said, giving him a small grin. He blushed a bit before clearing his throat, "About what?" I sighed, looking over at the shining moon, peaking from behind the clouds.

"About this Christmas thing.. Santa never gave us gifts before so whats to say that he gives us gifts now..?" I muttered. Sora went quiet, as if he was thinking about what to say. "Wait! What If I give you a gift instead!" I cheered. Sora paused before nodding his head slowly.

"Yes! Now close your eyes!" I told him as he did what he was told.

I smiled before leaning in and giving him a peck on the lips.

He opened his eyes in surprise before narrowing them.

"Merry Christmas Sora!" I smiled, blushing at the action I had done before. He didn't respond, choosing instead to touch where I kissed him.

"Disgusting.. now do it again."
