EPISODE _: ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU
A/N: This is my very first time in writing a song-fiction so bear with it. It's not that good and I really wanted to make a song-fiction of "All I Want For Christmas Is You" by Mariah Carey. Enjoy! (This is a Selene X Zazie. The next song-fiction about Christmas will be about… SECRET!) AND I AM TERRIBLY SORRY IF I UPLOADED THIS KINDA LATE. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR.

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
A brown haired girl was sitting on the window sill at the Suede Residence, she was hoping for something, or for someone. She then looked at where two silver-haired young adults were standing, arranging their Christmas tree—yes, it is Christmas Eve and the two silver-haired couple was excited in opening presents.
She found presents underneath the overly decorated tree—filled with Christmas lights, decorations, and a big star at the top of the tree. She found differently wrapped presents under the tree—bright colors, big and vivid ribbons, and of course, big and small presents. But seeing her eyes, there was something; something uneasy with her feelings.
"Something doesn't feel like… complete… What could it be…" she muttered.
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas Day
Lag and Sylvette were enjoying themselves until the clock stroke 10, thus Lag handed Selene a present. It was still Christmas Eve but Lag was excited so Selene had no choice but to take it.
"This is from your stocking I placed in yesterday morning; From Santa!" Lag smiled and gave Selene the purple-wrapped present. She smiled at it but refused to open it. Instead, she went to her room and gazed from her window—wishing that something or someone would come and drop by, giving her a great time.
She heard a knock and opened the door—the present was there. She opened it and it revealed a small, cute doll that looks like her. She smiled and placed the doll on her bed, she stared once again through her window until she saw someone…
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You baby
"Zazie come on! Lag and Sylvette are probable waiting for us! Including Selene!" The auburn haired girl saw her older sister dragging another boy by the name of Zazie. They were both heading towards the Suede Residence to see the trio.
Lag rushed towards Selene's room to tell her that Zazie and her sister are coming over while Sylvette was preparing their Christmas dinner while the two visitors entered their residence.
Selene was forced to wear a dress by Sylvette while Lag was forced to wear his red, messenger Bee outfit since Sylvette told him it looks good on him. Once the brown-haired girl was done, she immediately walked down the staircase, making someone stare at her as if she was his light and his reason to live.
"…so… cute…" he said to himself, "If only she likes me back, that would be the best Christmas gift ever."
Oh I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
And I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
"He's… staring." Selene muttered to herself, feeling awkward and having a major sense of déjà vu. "Do I look like a mess?"
Selene looked outside and even though the night seemed calm and tranquil, she would like to see snow fall—but now, that's not what she's wishing for. She wishes that the boy she likes would like her back. She would just sit down and watch the snow fall right unto her bare hands but the things she's wishing now, was different…
She wishes for love.
And she knows that someday, that love will come and find her. She found a little mistletoe hanging beside the fireplace where Lag hung her stocking and she sat underneath it—feeling cold inside.
"Mistletoe, it's where two lovers would sit down and… kiss."
This night, was just like any other night. She would fall asleep near the fireplace until Sylvette handed her a single piece of parchment and a fountain pen, telling her to write anything she wanted this Christmas. Selene refused.
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole or Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click
"I don't make those." Selene said, while Lag and Aaliyah used up two to five pieces of parchment in writing what they wanted. Zazie was sitting alone on a corner, looking at Selene who looked magnificent in her white and pink dress with a big ribbon hanging on her waist. Her hair had a few braids on and with pink laces.
Sylvette smiled and left to join Lag and Aaliyah. Zazie kept on staring on the girl he likes for months but had no courage to tell her—probably afraid of rejection.
He lost his jerky attitude towards her, he began showing her affectionate and gentle side which was complete weird for other people, but the girl, and she never cared what his good and bad side was. She liked his attitude to be just himself and this led him to like her ever since.
Selene fell asleep near the fireplace while Sylvette, Lag, and Aaliyah were busy playing; Zazie was looking outside the window, thinking if he would just have the courage to ask her out, then he would.
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do?
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
You…
Zazie walked right next to the sleeping girl near the fireplace. With him blushing, he placed his arm behind Selene's shoulders while Selene felt the warm embrace which made her head lie down on Zazie's shoulder. And right under the mistletoe.
Selene liked the feeling of being cuddled and she felt cozy and safe inside his arms. Zazie's face heated up as he saw Selene looking calm and cute.
If only she knows…
If only he feels…
Selene woke up, and saw Zazie daydreaming right in front of her—Selene was also dreaming that she and Zazie ended up with each other. Selene wished that he was dreaming of her but she highly doubted that. She liked him; she liked Zazie… much more than anything.
Oh all the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
While the two are afraid of knowing the truth, Aaliyah, Lag, and Sylvette were now laughing with each other until Gauche and Jiggy dropped by.
The Christmas lights were shining and illuminating brightly—it looked magnificent. While everyone were having fun—playing cards, board games, truth or dare, and they started a pillow fight. Everything was perfect until near the 25th of December.
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need?
Won't you please bring my baby to me?
Sylvette and Lag asked Selene and Zazie to come and join the truth or dare. While spinning the bottle, everyone was merrily singing Christmas Songs. The bottle stopped towards Gauche and was asked the Truth to come out.
"I would like Aria to be my present this Christmas…" he gave a slight blush. That was the same wish Selene and Zazie wanted.
Selene started to pray, it was almost the end of the year and Selene's love life never progressed.
"Please, I want him to like me back. At least that's the present I want to have this Christmas…"
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door
"Selene…" Zazie spoke. Selene looked up with inspired and happy eyes.
Zazie felt like his heart sank to the bottom of his stomach and his hands felt sweaty. He completely lost his jerky attitude because of the girl he likes, and that girl is Selene—the very girl who likes him back.
"Would you… um… uh…"
Aaliyah and Sylvette noticed this and played a serenade playing soft music—ideal for waltz and other slow dances. Raphael and Hans knocked on their door while Lag opened it up. Raphael asked Aaliyah if he could have this dance and they danced together.
"Would you dance with me…?" Zazie asked the girl, not looking at her directly in her beautiful green eyes. Selene's face lightened up.
"Of course I will…"
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is
You Baby
"Selene, I'm going to tell you something…"
"What is it?"
"I… I like you Selene…"
"Oh…"
"You don't like me back? It's okay…"
"It's not that… I do… I do like you back… What took you so long to confess?!"
The two couple dancing embraced and hugged each other, feeling the warmth from their bodies and emitting such a love and romantic aura around them. Aaliyah and Raphael were both staring at a distance while Hans was keeping his anger to his limits—seeing his little sister falling in love with a jerk like Zazie, but Aaliyah insisted it was okay.
"She's all grown up, right?" Aaliyah told her older brother.
"Yes, yes she is…" they kept on watching the two couples dance the night away until the clock struck 12.
Looks like my wish came true… Selene thought.
All I want for Christmas is you baby
All I want for Christmas is you baby
All I want for Christmas is you baby
This Christmas, we all wanted to have our own presents, hoping that inside those wrapped boxes will be something very precious to us; very important just like feelings, not just things around us. Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful.
Give more and don't ask anything in return, you may not receive presents but value the spirit of Christmas—peace and love.
"A little smile, a word of cheer, a bit of love from someone near, a little gift from one held dear, best wishes for the coming year… These make a Merry Christmas" said John Greenleaf Whittier.
Merry Christmas everyone and don't forget to bring the spirit of Christmas with you in any time of year. Merry Christmas!
ME: MERRY CHRISTMAS!
SIS: HAI!
SPACE: PRESENTS!
TRIO: Have a merry and joyful Christmas! :))))
