Christmas Eve!

Enjoy :)

It was finally Christmas morning! Darren couldn't belive he'd made it, but he had. Keeping the secret had been hard, but he'd done it. The gang had no idea what was waiting for them. For once, he wasn't in the mood to sleep in. He jumped out of his coffen and ran up and down the hall screaming "CHRISTMASCHRISTMASCHRISTMASCHRISTMAS!" at the top of his lungs. Predictably, Harkat was out first, joining Darren in his mad dash. Seba came out second, but only to tell darren to shut up. However, as soon as Darren reminded him he got a present, he was just as excited as he could be. Mika and Arrow were out next. Gifts were one part of Christmas they were looking forwards to. Kurda appeared shortly after, still holding his hair straightener. Larten and Paris finally appeared at their own leisurely pace. Now on to the presents!

Darren had recieved his Secret Santa present from Harkat last night, so he sat back and watched happily as his friends indulged in some Christmas Spirit.

Kurda recieved a brand new hair straightener (cordless, so he didn't have to hog the bathroom.) But the giver was something of a suprise. No one expected that Mika was capable of gifting Kurda with something wouldn't explode in his hands. But Mika simply said, "You never know, he might burn himself."

In the next 10 minuites, Harkat opened a slushie-maker from Arrow, Arrow opened an airport-style golf cart from Paris (it was a ginormously large package), Paris opened an extremely high-quality camera (complete with Vampire mode) from Larten, Larten opened a hat that said "#1 DAD" from Darren (he'd decided to buy it after all), Mika opened a hand-made cookie from Seba, and Seba opened a large bottle of perfume from Kurda.

Everyone lounged beneath the tree for about 10 minuites, when Darren decided it was time.

"Guys, come with me, there's just one more thing we have to do, and it'll be a perfect Christmas."

Darren lead his gang down the cold corridoors and passages until they reached the entrance to a large chamber on the bottom floor. They rounded the corner and the a shock went through every single Vampire and Little Person as they saw a beautiful and familiar ivory white Cadillac Escalade.

"Darren, you got an Essie just like ours!" Larten (wearing his new hat) gasped in awe as everyone dahsed forwards to check it out.

Darren gave his mentor a tight hug and whispered into his ear: "Take a look at the back of the front seat, Mr. Crepsley."

Larten pulled open the back passenger door and stepped inside, followed by the rest of the gang as they took their old favourite seats.

"Oh Darren, you got our Essie!"

Scribbled on the back of the front passenger seat was each other their names, written in Kurda's hot pink Sharpie.

Hope you all enjoyed then ending! I sure did.

Have great holidays, get cool stuff, give cool stuff, have fun with all the ribbon, and don't drink too much eggnog if you have as low a tolerannce as Seba! And Birthday Greetings go out to Tinkerbelle22 and of course, Jesus!3 Have a great one, guys. :)
