Summary: She would have been able to put presents under the tree if it wasn't for her stupid bra. Why did it have to come with bells on it!?

There it was again. That sound. Jeff kept hearing it all night for two nights straight. Was it Lucas? No, why would Matt put a bell on his dog? But wait, was it Reno, their black cat? It could be. Even though it was a boy cat, Chantel, Matt's girlfriend, pampered him like he was a girl. She could have put a bell on him.

Confused on what it was, Jeff opened his eyes and sat up. He blinked a couple times as the sound started up again. This time he was going to find out what it was and put a stop to it. Jeff took the blankets off and climbed out of bed. He tied his messy, reddish pinkish purple and white hair back into a bun. He walked out of his room and snuck into the living room where the sound originated from. He looked around and then saw movement. It was a large figure in the background and it sure wasn't Reno. It was a feminine-looking individual and the only person that related to that description was Chantel.
Jeff smirked as he snuck over to her as she was occupying herself with taking presents that she already had wrapped from the couch to under the tree. He approached her and whispered into her ear, "Isn't it a little late for this?"
The Los Angeles native jumped, startled half to death. She spun around and met face to face with Jeff. As she moved, she jingled. And it was the same sound that Jeff kept hearing.
"Ohmigoshwhatthe--Oh, hey, Jeff."
His eyes bugged when he heard the sound. He pointed an assertive index finger at her. "It's you! You're the one that kept making all the noise!"
Chantel blinked a couple times. "What? What noise?"
"Those bells ringing." he replied in a low voice.
"Oh...my bra? Yeah it has tiny bells on it. I jingle every time I move."
"Yeah, it's kept me up for the past two nights." he informed her. She apologized and then he said, "You know, why don't you wrap presents during the day?"
"I can't do it during the day, Matt's always here. So, I gotta do it when he's sleeping." she explained.
Jeff gave her an innocent look, as he bat his eyes a few times. He wanted something, she could sense it.
Yet, she still asked him "What...?" because she was slightly a little lost. Also somewhat weirded out by it.
"Did you wrap any presents for me?"
"Yeah, of course, why wouldn't I?"
The younger Hardy brother grinned. "What'd you get me?"
"I'm not telling you." Chantel refused. "Wait till Christmas."
"Well then, maybe I should tell Matt about all of this and--"
"No!" she hissed, clamping her hand over his mouth. "Don't. Say. A. Word. Or else I'm going to go all kinds of homicidal on your ass."
Suddenly, out of the blue, all the lights were turned back on without warning. Both Chantel and Jeff stopped what they were doing and slowly turned their heads in the direction of the source.
To the greatest dismay, Matt stood by the lightswitch. He was tired, pissy, and over all not amused whatsoever. He didn't appreciate being woken up.
"Do you two have any idea what time it is?" he questioned his brother and his girlfriend.
There was complete silence until Chantel spoke up.
"Uh...two-thirty?" she grinned sheepishly.
"And what should you being doing at two-thirty?" Matt continued.
"...Sleeping?" Jeff answered.
"Exactly." the brunette said. "Now, go; now."
"But I was just--" Chantel started.
But then Matt cut her off. "--No. To bed."
Chantel gave up in defeat. "Ugh, fine."
She followed him to their bedroom as Jeff went back to his own.
"Nighty-night, Jingle Bells." Jeff snickered to Chantel.
"Oh shut up."
