A/N Why hello my dearies, bet you thought I was dead or something. Well, I'm not, I was just uninspired.
Now I'm back again, preparing the Cullen's for Christmas, what could possibly go wrong there? A lot, readers, a lot.

Oh, this story is after Eclipse as if Breaking Dawn never happened. (*cough* kinda wish it didn't *cough*)

Disclaimer
Me- Jasper, can you come here for a second?
Jasper- Sure, what's up?
Me- I need you to use your gift to make people think I own Twilight.
Jasper- Well... umm... it doesn't really... work that way.
Me- *stomps foot* Dangit! You're lucky you're hot. Anyways, I don't own Twilight.
Jasper- I'm... just gonna be over... there. (scoots away uncomfortably)

"Bella?" I heard Edward's musical tone pull me out of my reverie, "Am I still picking you up tonight?"

I shook my head a little the clear my thoughts, it was around noon on Christmas Eve Day and Edward had been picking me up from my shift at the Newton's store, which had been closed early in anticipation of the holiday.

"Of course you are, but remember, tomorrow I'm all Charlie's." The only reason Charlie was even allowing me to spend Christmas Eve with the Cullen's was because I promised that Christmas Day would be completely Edward free, after all he still wasn't happy about me dating Edward since he had come back from his self-imposed state of exile.

Edward smiled his godlike, crooked smile, "You know, the entire family is excited to have you over for Christmas, it's been so long since we've really been able to exchange presents since everybody just buys something if they want it, not wait for somebody to give it to them. They are all planning on spoiling you."

I was ready to protest, but then stopped; it was Christmas after all, and arguing would not be very 'merry' of me, so I decided that part of my gift to them would be to play along and be happy, it's the least I can do considering I wasn't able to purchase them very big gifts.

"Alice isn't going overboard, is she?" I asked him cautiously.

"Alice?" he raised his brow in question, "going overboard? Never," Edward replied with an edge of sarcasm coloring his tone.

I just rolled my eyes.

"You at least made sure that in 'spoiling me' they didn't get anything too extravagant, right? It's not like I was able to get any of you very nice presents," I told him.

"It doesn't matter what you got any of us, it's the thought that counts," Edward's voice chimed like bells, "and I made sure nobody went too crazy on your gifts, although there are quite a few of them. You should see under the tree, the names on the presents are basically: Bella, Bella, Bella, Bella, Bella, and so on, but you get the point."

My eyes widened in shock, "All of them say Bella?"

Edward laughed at my shocked face, "Well, no, some of them say 'human,' Emmett's idea of a joke, and then a few are of course for other people."

I breathed a sigh of relief, "don't scare me like that!"

He smirked as he pulled in my home's driveway, "So let me get this straight, vampires: not scary, presents: terrifying? That's very interesting, Bella. If only I could know how your mind works," Edward mused.

"Sorry," I kissed him lightly, "but that's one gift I can't give you."

Edward sighed, "Maybe one day. I'll see you at six."

"Okay," I replied and climbed out of the car, "Bye."

"Bye, Bella." And he zoomed off.

A/N FYI, this is as sweet as this story, or anything I write, will ever be, so don't get attached. Next chapter craziness begins, so get ready!

REVIEW! Or else I will never tell you the story of Emmett and the penguin!
