Author's notes: Ooook. Well, I was planning on waiting until I had finished doing another story to do this buuuuut . . . oh well. Anyway, I am glad you all liked Silent Night, so I hope you like this fic just as much! So here it is, the SEQUEL to Silent Night! The first few chapters will be short, probably.
