🎄Wonderful Christmas Time🎄

Start from the beginning
                                    

"I guess we should start too?" Mountain asked Rain and together they ran down into the hallway.
"Where do we start?" The large ghoul asked curiously. Rain ran to the decorative box and looked inside.
"So we have garlands for the banister, fairy lights for the windows, a wreath for the front door, nutcrackers and a small Christmas tree." He listed as he rummaged a little in the box.
"That sounds like a start." Mountain ran to the box and took out one of the many fairy lights.
“Should they just go to the top of the window?” He asked, to which Rain nodded.
"Yep. Do you need a ladder or can you get to it on your own?"
“Do I look like I need a ladder?” He asked giggling, making Rain blush.
"Probably not," he mumbled embarrassedly.
"It's okay, I'll manage it," the ghoul smiled encouragingly and walked to the window with the fairy lights. Rain turned around and took out the first nutcracker, which he placed next to the front door.

Then he took the wreath and hung it on the door outside. The cold wind gave him goosebumps, so he quickly walked inside and grabbed the garland he was using to decorate the banister. When he was finished, he looked at Mountain, who had already decorated half of his windows with fairy lights.
"Looks good" Rain smiled at Mountain as he turned around.
"Thanks. I told you I could do it without a ladder," he took the next string of lights and ran with them to another window.

Rain took smaller figures, like gnomes and reindeer out of the box, and placed them in the hallway wherever they looked good. They all looked different, had different colors and sizes. But the nine gnomes had one thing in common. They all had a cloth with a name around their neck. Rain smiled. He had sewn the gnomes' scarves himself. He wanted to make a Christmas present for each of the ghouls, so he sewed fabrics of different colors into cloths and always embroidered a name on them. The largest gnome had a green cloth with silver embroidery with which he had written the name "Mountain" and the smallest had a red cloth with the golden name "Sodo". It had been strenuous work, which meant he often pricked his finger and since he couldn't sew, everything was crooked. But Rain really wanted to do it. For him it was only the thought behind it that mattered, not what it looked like. The most difficult one was the gnome he placed in the middle. He had sewn him a coat and modified the cap so that it looked like a miter, and he also had a little make-up on his face. It was supposed to represent Papa. So he lined up all the gnomes in a row and looked at the result with satisfaction.

“Did you make all of these for us?” He suddenly heard Mountain's voice behind him, which made him turn around
"U-Uhm... Y-Yes" he stuttered uncertainly and felt himself blushing.
"They don't look good, but I t-thought-"
"They look perfect!" Mountain said, crouching down in front of the elves.
"D-Do you really think so?" Rain asked in amazement and looked at him with big, hopeful eyes.
"Yes, really. They look great," he smiled and took a closer look at his.
"Green is my favorite color, did you know that?" He asked, which made Rain blush, but he nodded anyway.
"Y-Yes. I know all your favorite colors"
He confessed, scratching the back of his head a little.
Mountain stood back up and smiled softly.
“How thoughtful of you,” he grinned happily and then turned around to take care of the next decoration.
After a while they finally got everything set up and hung up. Everything except one thing.

"Mountain, can you please help me hang the mistletoe from the ceiling?" Rain asked a little uncertainly and pointed up to the ceiling, where there was a small hook on which the mistletoe could be hung. The large ghoul looked up and seemed to think.
"Well, I'm big, but I can't reach it myself," he grinned crookedly. Rain looked at the mistletoe somewhat disappointed.
"Well... It doesn't have to hang," he mumbled and was about to put it down again when Mountain took his hand.
"Hey, if you sit on my shoulders, we'll definitely get to it," he offered with a gentle smile, which made Rain a little nervous.
"U-Uhm well, we can try it" with that, Mountain got on his knees in front of him and waited for him to sit on him.
Rain carefully put one leg over his shoulder before pulling the other one over as well and holding on to his head.
"Be careful, I'm getting up." The big ghoul carefully got up again and Rain held on tighter as it wobbled a bit. Still, it wasn't long before he was standing and Rain could lift his arms to hang the mistletoe.
"So... Done!" He looked at his work with satisfaction.
"Can I put you down again?" Mountain asked, who then slowly let Rain slide off his shoulders. He and Rain suddenly found themselves directly opposite each other, so that the little ghoul had to look up at him and slowly noticed how nervous and red he was. Mountain smiled softly.
