Under The Mistletoe (A Christmas Special)

Start from the beginning
                                    

"You're so immature," Amity says as she finishes her last wing.

"Yeah, I know." Luz smirks as she kisses Amity's neck, causing her whole face to erupt into a pink color.

"C'mon, I have a surprise for you downstairs."

Luz opens her bedroom door and grabs Amity's hand, taking her down the steps before stopping outside the living room.

Amity hears small conversation going on from inside and her curiosity grows.

"Okay, close your eyes and don't open them until I say so." 

Amity hesitantly closes her eyes and the warmth in her hand leaves for a moment, and the whispers from inside the living room disappear.

"Okay, are you ready?" Luz asks excitedly from beside Amity. "Um, yeah.. I guess so."

Luz grabs Amity's hand once again and leads her into the living room, where everyone was waiting.

"Okay, open your eyes in three.. two... one!"

Amity opens her eyes and they widen, a smile creeping its way onto her face.

"Merry Christmas!" They all say in unison. "Merry... What?" Amity looks confused.

"Oh, yeah. Well Christmas is like when you spend time with family and open gifts. And give people gifts," Luz explains quickly.

Amity smacks her arm, glaring at her girlfriend. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I totally could've got gifts for everyone!"

"Well we all agreed not to tell you until it was to late." Luz pauses, glancing at everyone. "Because of that."

Amity scoffs and crosses her arms, glaring at Eda. "You're behind all this, aren't you?" Eda shakes her head, looking between Luz and Camila with a playful look in her eye. "Actually, it was those two."

"I can't say I'm surprised."

Luz rubs her hands together, looking at everyone once again. "So what do we want to do now?"

"IIIII know what we can do," Hooty says, twirling in a circle as best as he can from the portable dog house he was in.

"Let's unwrap the presents!" King says excitedly, running over to the Christmas tree and grabbing a present he assumed was his, considering the black and white wrapping paper.

"Yeah, that's fine by me. Plus I have something to give cutie," Emira says with a smug look on her face.

Everyone gathers around in the living room as King unwraps his present.

"Ooo, this one is from Emira!" King tears away the wrapping paper to reveal a hat with antlers on it. King puts it on his face and runs over to Emira, hugging her.

"Thank you, person I tolerate!" King squeaks. Emira chuckles and hugs him back, a smile on her face.

"Someone start handing out presents," Eda says as she takes a sip of her apple blood, looking around the room.

Edric excitedly scoots towards the tree and starts handing out presents, mumbling the names as he does.

"And... Amity! That's all of them!" Edric goes back to his seat beside Hunter, his boyfriend.

(Yes I ship them. That and Jerbo x Edric are the only two good ships. Other than Edric x Telephone Pole)

"Who wants to go first?" Camila asks, looking around the room. "IIIII'll go first!" Hooty almost immediately starts ripping at the wrapping paper with his beak, leaving everyone else in the room to stare at him.

After he finishes practically eating the wrapping paper, he takes the item out of the box. "Aww, look! It's my own painting of a ladybug!"

"Okay..." Edric continues to look at Hooty weirdly as he opens his presents next.

He got a sweater and a few books from his favorite series. Emira and Jerbo opened their presents next, getting practically the same things.

"Amity, your turn!" Luz says excitedly. She knew what was going to happen now. Amity would unwrap her presents and while she was distracted, Luz would propose. 

Easy enough, right?

"Um, okay." Amity grabs the biggest present first and starts laughing as she sees the ugly sweater placed inside.

Luz reaches into her pocket as Amity grabs the next present.

Finding the small box, Luz moves behind Amity and pulls it out of her pocket, getting on one knee and opening the box.

"Luz?" Amity finishes opening the last present and she turns around, her eyes widening.

Luz takes a deep breath, looking Amity in the eyes. "Amity Blight.. Will you make me the happiest woman alive and marry me?"

Amity covers her mouth with her hand, her eyes getting blurry from tears. 

Happy tears.

"Yes, of course!"

Luz feels as if a large weight had been lifted off her shoulders as she puts the ring on Amity's finger and hugs her, tears stinging her eyes as well.

Everyone claps, and Emira stands on her tip toes to hold a mistletoe above the two lovebirds.

"Kiss kiss!" She says, a big smile on her face as she looks at the two of them.

Luz laughs and kisses Amity. Slow and sweet.

Everyone sits back down and continues unwrapping their presents, smiling and hugging each other when they receive their gifts.

Luz and Amity were smiling ear to ear.

Neither of them could've ever asked for a better Christmas.
