I've kinda been grounded lately, .. my bad.. (shield reunion made me cry... Idc how it ended. I loved it.)

Dean's POV

"So," Alicia said as she put some plates into dishes into the sink, "Who's all going to the dance tonight?"

"Not me," Wade said, "As soon as I get off of work, we're packing for New York. We should be headed out by early tomorrow morning. My grandmother should be picking us up from airport."

"I forget you and your parents were going to New York.." Alicia mumbled, sounding slightly sad.

"Yeah," Wade said while putting some old food into the trash, "I'll text you as soon I get off the plane."

She smiled some, "Ok then."

"Texting," Cameron said with a smirk as she piled food into a tray, "Leads to talking, and talking leads to dating, and dating leads to f-"

"La la la!" Alicia sang loudly as she put her finger in her ears, "I can't hear you! I'm not listening! Bla bla bla bla-"

"We get it Fox!"  I say with a small laugh.

She laughed, "Back to my question. Who's going to the dance? I mean, I haven't officially decided to go yet, I'm just trying to see who's going."

"Well not me." Cameron said, "It's just a Winter dance, Fox. A lot of people aren't going cause they're flying out for the holiday."

"What about you Dean?" Alicia asked me.

"I would," I say to her while wiping off a counter, "But I other things to do tonight."

"Such as?" Dolph said as he scrapped some food that somebody didn't eat into the trash.

"We kinda got a movie night tonight." I tell him, "We do it every year. Except this year, I plan on bringing the kids."

"The kids?" Wade asked with a small smile.

"Shut up." I say playfully while rolling my eyes, "I want them to have some fun. Plus it's the holidays, they've never spent the holidays outside of the orphanage. I wanna give them something special."

"You gonna buy them some gifts?" Renee said, barley above a mumble as she put more dishes into the sink.

"Well the girls somehow got a couple skateboards and scooters a few weeks ago." I say to them while scratching my head, still really I sure of how they managed to get those, "I was gonna give them to them. It's a nice gift for kids."

"That's cute," Alicia said, "But back to my question. Are you going Dolph."

"Nah," Dolph said to her, "I think I'm gonna spend some time alone with Lana. It's been a while since we've just had some 'us' time, and we need it."

Alicia sighed, "How about you Kev?"

Kevin didn't answer as he continued to look at him phone.

"Kevin." Alicia said once again, but he didn't look up.

Alicia sighed, grabbed a fry, and threw it at him.

"Hey!" Kevin shouted while looking up at us, "What was that for?"

"I called you like twice Kevin." Alicia said with a sigh, "Are you going to the dance."

"Oh," Kevin said while looking back down at his phone, "No, I'm not."

"Who on earth are you texting so much?" Wade asked him.

"I'm not texting anybody." Kevin said.

"Then what are you doing?" Alicia asked.

Kevin shrugged, "I don't know... Looking at social media."

"What on Social Media?" I ask him while drying off a bowl.

"Does it matter?" Kevin asked.

"Is it a girl?" Dolph asked him with a smirk.

"It is a girl, isn't it?!" Alicia shouted when Kevin didn't answer Dolph.

"I never said that..." Kevin said while blushing slightly.

"It definitely is!" Cameron said with a laugh, "Well who is she?"

Kevin shrugged, "What does it matter?"

"Oh come on Kevin," I said to him, "Do we at least know her."

"You know her alright..." He mumbled and I raised a eyebrow.

"You're not falling for Nikki right?" I question him, "Cause I'm sorry Kev, but-"

"I am not falling for Nikki." Kevin said while rolling his eyes.

"Then who is it?" Wade asked, "Just tell us."

"Yeah," Cameron said, "It's not like we're gonna tell anybody."

"I rather keep it to myself." Kevin mumbled.

"Why?" Dolph questioned, "We're not gonna judge you-"

"But you would." Kevin said, interrupting Dolph, "You would judge me. Weather it was on purpose or not. I already know what you guys would say about her... And unlike everyone else, I see her differently."

We all stayed quiet for a moment and just watched him as he turned back around, but plugged in his earphones to tune us out,

"Well..." Cameron said awkwardly, breaking the silence.

"Um," Alicia said, "Back to my question. Are you going Re?"

Renee shook her head, "I have no interest in going."

Alicia sighed, "Why not? Come on Renee, it'll be fun. Just something to get you out the house."

"No thanks Foxy." She said plainly while wiping off one of the counters, "I just want to go home."

"Maybe if stop moping about Neville, we could actually have some fun..." Alicia mumbled quietly while turning and throwing a paper towel in the trash.

"Excuse me?" Renee asked while turning around.

"What?" Alicia asked her.

"You said something." Renee said while glaring at her slightly.

Alicia sighed, "It was nothing Renee."

"That's what I thought." Renee said while turning back around.

"Ok," Alicia said while glaring at her, "I don't know who you think your catching a attitude with, but it definitely ain't me."

"I don't have a attitude yet." Renee said while rolling her eyes, "Keep that up and I swear I'll give you one."

"What the hell is your problem?" Alicia said while crossing her arms.

"My problem is your fücking talking about me and I'm standing right here Alicia!" Renee shouted at her, "Damn, I thought we were actually friends!"

"All I said was the truth!" Alicia yelled back at her, "All you do is sit around and worry about Neville!"

"I do not!" Renee said while stomping her foot.

"Yes you do!" Alicia yelled back, "It's every fucking day Renee! It's 'I wish he would just love me like I love him' or 'I can't believe I lost him'."

"You're a bitch Alicia!" Renee yelled at her, "He's someone I care about damn it! I'm so fucking sorry!"

"I'm not saying that you shouldn't care about him!" Alicia yelled back, "But when you do it ever fucking day, it gets annoying!"

"I get annoying?" Renee shouted, "What about you? All you do is go on about Wade!"

"I do not!" Alicia yelled back at her.

"Yes you do!" Renee shouted back, "Every single day Alicia! It's 'oh Wade is so cute today' or 'or I wanna date him so bad'. Like shut up please! If you want him so bad, make a fucking move!"

"Says the girl who didn't make hers!" Alicia yelled, "Now where is Neville? Somewhere else! I mean we can't blame him though, who would wanna be with a girl who slepts around that much!"

"You are so fucking fake Alicia!" Renee shouted at her, "What kinda best friend are you even suppose to be?!"

"A real one!" Alicia shouted back at her, "Cause I'm just saying to your face what everyone else is saying behind your back!"

Everyone was silent in the kitchen as both of the girls stared at each other intensely.

Renee bit her lip and looked at the ground after a couple minutes, while Alicia crossed her arms and looked anywhere but Renee.

"Excuse me." Renee said while pushing past Dolph and Cameron and exiting the kitchen.

"I'm calling it a night..." Alicia mumbled as she grabbed her bag from the counter and walked towards the back door of the kitchen.

"Alicia." Wade called after as he followed her.

"Leave me alone Wade." She mumbled as she opened the door but he grabbed her arm.

"Alicia slow down." Wade said to her.

"Do you realize what I just did Wade?!" Alicia shouted while yanking her arm away from him, "I just lost my best friend and it's all my fault! Just give me so space Wade... Please..."

He stayed quite as she walked out the door and left the rest of us standing there. Wade sighed and opened the door again.

"Wade," Cameron said, "She said to give her some space."

"Since when do I listen?" Wade asked before walking out the door.

"Wade." Cameron called out but stopped when Kevin grabbed her arm.

"Just let it go Cam." Kevin mumbled as he stuck his earbuds back in, "It's around that time of the year where everybody is tired of everybody. Let's just let them go."

"I feel like we been giving each other too much space lately..." Cameron mumbled as she took off her apron, "I think we should wrap it up here guys. I don't think anyone else is coming in this afternoon. I have to get ready for my dads Christmas Diner with his job anyways."

Dolph sighed but nodded, "Sounds good to me. We've had enough for one day. We should enjoy the rest of the afternoon, I mean school let out early for a reason. We shouldn't be working our afternoon away."

I sighed, but nodded and began to put some items away so we could leave for the day. But as I was doing so, I couldn't help but think about what Kevin had said about it being that time of year where everyone got tired of each other. 

It's funny how it doesn't seem like me and the others are growing tired of each other. Everything that has happened up to this point, we've stayed with eachother and did it together, no matter how bad things got...

Either that means we're the most loyal friends in the entire world... Or we haven't faced the worst yet...

%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%^

"Deany, will it snows on Christmas?" Benny asked me as I held him close and approached Nikki's front door, "Cause that's all I really want as a present."

"You said that you wanted PWA 2k16," Sarah said as she looked up at the lights that hung from the house, "And a race car, and a monkey, and to discover Santa's secret identity-"

"Hush Sarah!" Benny shouted at her, "That was suppose to be a secret."

"Santa's Secret identity?" I ask him with a laugh as I rung the door bell.

He nodded, "Santas has a secrets identity and I'm gonna figure out who he is! He has a lot fake ones of him at the malls."

Sarah rolled her eyes, "Santa isn't real Benny."

"Yes he is!" Benny shouted at him, "He lives in the north pole with all his elfs! He travels all awound the world to give us presents! In one night Sarah. He is real."

"No he doesn't." Sarah said, "There is no such think as Santa Clause, there's no such thing as elfs, theres no such thing as traveling around the world in one night to give out presents Benny."

Benny crossed his arms, "I hope you get runs over by a reindeer..."

"No such thing as those either." Sarah said while rollinh her eyes.

I laugh slightly, "What's the matter Sarah? You don't believe in Ole Saint Nick?"

"Nope." She said, "Never in a million years."

"You know," I say to her, "You remind me a lot of the boy on the movie were going to watch. He didn't believe in Santa either."

"Smart kid." Sarah said as the door opened and revealed Nikki.

She smiled, but the frowned, "Dean. Why isn't Benny wearing a jacket? Its cold out here."

"He said he didn't want to put it on," I say as she takes him from me as we walk in the house.

"Dean he could get sick like that." She said as she gave him a kiss on the cheek. Nikki was almost as protective over these kids as I was, if not more protctive.

"I promise I'll make him wear it next time." I say to her as I look round her holiday decorated house, "It looks good in here babe."

She smiled, "Thank you. It doesn't look too over done does it? I kinda get carried away when it comes to Christmas decor. But I really love decorating."

"It looks perfect." I say as I lean in to kiss her cheek.

She smiled again, "Good, the only thing not decorated is the Christmas tree in the living room. I figured Benny and Sarah could help decorate it tonight."

"Yes!" Sarah shouted,  "I decorated one at school at it looked really pretty."

"Can you make mine look really pretty?" Nikki asked her with a laugh.

"I'll do you one better and make it fabulous." Sarah said with a laugh and I smiled.

Nikki laughed and sat Benny down, "Great. You guys go to the living room. The others are there. I'll go get the decorations."

We walked to the living room and found the others sitting on the couch watching Frosty the Snowman.

"Frosty!" Benny shouted and got everyones attention.

"Ew," Sarah said while sitting on the couch next to Punk, "Snowman."

"Do you always have a negative attitude towards everything?" Roman asked her with a laugh.

"Just about," She said with a shrug, "At least you're not watching a Santa Clause movie."

"You don't like Santa?" Stephanie asked with a laugh as I sat down.

"Sarah doesn't believes in Santa." Benny said, "She's Claustrophobic. That means she's scared of Santa Clause."

"Claustrophobic means you're sared of small spaces Benny." Sarah said while rolling her eyes, "And I'm not scared of a fat man who goes around and eats everybody's cookies."

"Santa is amazings." Benny said while crossing his arms.

"Did somebody say amazing?" A voice said. None other that Miz himself, along with the devil half to my angel, Bella.

Ever since Brie gave me that bit of information. I've completely kept my eyes open around him. Not that I can trust Brie too much either...

"Go away." Naomi groaned, "Please God just continue on your way."

"Excuse me Fatu," Brie said, "But I think you forget who's house this is."

"This is my house..." Paige mumbled with a small laugh and I smiled slightly. 

"Excuse me?" Brie said to her.

"She wasn't talking to you." Sarah said to her.

"And I wasn't talking to you."  Brie snarled.

Sarah lookes at Miz, "Put your bitch on a leash,"

"Sarah!" I shout, "I swear im going to make you choke on soap if you don't stop using bad words."

"Well I'm so sorry Deany," Sarah said while crossing her arms, "But if she's acting like a bitch, Then I'm going to call her one."

"Sarah." I growl slightly, "What did I just say."

She crossed her arms ans rolled her eyes, "You don't tell me what to do."

"Sarah stop being difficult." I say to her.

"Sarah stop being difficult." She mimicked.

"Cut it out Sarah." I say with a slight glare.

"Cut it out Sarah." She repeated.

"I though you were nine Sarah," I say to her, "Not three fuckimg years old."

"I am fucking nine!" She shouted at me.

"What did I just say about cursimg?" I ask and raise my voice slightly.

"What did I just say about stop telling me what to do?" She askes while crossing her arms again.

"Sarah." I say, getting slightly aggravated,  "Cut it out."

"You are not my Daddy." She said with a glare.

"Well its obvious that someone should be!" I shout at her.

"Well it's obvious that someone didn't want to be!" She shouted back.

"And who's fucking fault is that Sarah?" I shout at her.

"Mine!" She shouted hack, "There must be some reason why I'm in a fucking orphanage Dean!"

I opened my mouth, but stopped myself and stared at the little girl. Did she really think it was hee fault...

"Sarah-" I start but she interrupted me.

"Just shut up Dean," she said while standing up, "Go away. Go away just like every other person in my life has. I'm use to being alone."

"Sarah." I said while standing up to follow her, but a hand on my shoulder stopped me.

"Dean," I heard Nikki's voice say, "Let me talk to her instead."

I let out a sigh but stayed quite and sat back down in the chair as Nikki walked off in the direction that Sarah had went. There was no way she'd even talk to me right now... if I mess up this much, then maybe I shouldn't be a father...

"Awe." Brie said, "It seems like your little angle isn't too much of a angle, is she Dean?"

"Will you leave him alone?" Seth asked, sounding irrated.

"And to think you actually thought about adopting her." Brie said with a small laugh, ignoring Seth, "I don't that would be a good idea Dean. I mean for one, do you really think that you could actually be a good father? I mean look at yourself."

"Get the hell out Please!" Paige shouted at her whole I grab one of the ornaments that Nikki had brung into the room and grip it to try and take some of my anger away. I didn't want her getting to me.

"The for two," She continued, "She's probably no good anyways. I mean she was put up for adoption for a reason Dean. Her mom was probably just some whore who got pregnant and couldn't take care of her damn kid. And God knows she'll turn out the same way-"

"Shut up!" I shout while throwing the ornament, causimh it to shatter on the ground and the entire room remained silent.

"If you ever." I say while walking over to her, "And I mean ever say that about her again, I swear to God-"

"You'll what!?' She shouted at me, "I dare you to say something to me."

I opened my mouth, but a voice cut me off.

"Why are yous so mean?" Benny asked and the room got quite again.

"What?" Brie snarled at him.

"Why are yous so mean?" Benny asked again, "You're mean to people. It's not nice. Can yous evens be nice?"

Brie stared at him for a little while.

"You don't have to be mean." Benny said to her, "People will be nice to yous if yous nice backs."

Brie looked at him for a few more seconds, then shook her head.

"Let's go Miz." Brie said while grabbing hia hand amd walkimg towards the front door.

"Good riddance..." Stephanie mumbled.

"Deany?" Benny askes while climbing off the couch, "Yous ok?"

"I'm fine Benny," I say while picking him up so he wouldn't step on any glass that shatteres when I threw the ornament.

"You gots mad." He said while buring his face into my neck, "Are yous mad at me?"

"No baby boy." I say while I hold him tighter to me, "Not at you."

"At Sarah?" He asked me.

I shake my head, "Not at her either. I'm not mad at either of you."
"Dean," he said, "Please no get that mad again. You look scary,,,"

"I'm sorry Benny." I say to him and rock him slightly, "I won't.  I promise."

"Don't make promises you can't keep." I heard Sarah's voice say, then I see her enter with Nikki at her side.

I sigh and sit Benny down, then look at Sarah who had her arms crossed.

"Sarah," I say to her, "I'm sorry."

"It's ok." She said while getting back on the couch, "I'm use to feeling unwanted."

"Sarah." I frown slightly. 

She shrugged,  "I said it was ok. I'm not bothered by it, promise. Now, can we decorate the tree?"

I raise a eyeborw at her but shakw my head, "Sure Sarah."

"Yas," Naomi said, "Decorations."

I smile slightly as I grab the box and walk over to the tree. For the next hour and a half we decorated the large Christmas tree. It wouldn't have took as long if Sarah hadn't felt the need for it to be perfect, which included polishing the dull ornaments, and setting up the Polar Express train that circled the base of the tree.
After that, we began to watch the Polar Express, just like we did annually and just like every other time, it was simple and perfect. Except this year, it seemed a little better with Benny and Sarah here. Benny was fascinated with the train, and even though Sarah criticized every scene of the movie, which included mocking the scene when they were singing, I know she was enjoying it.

"Ugh," Sarah groaned as the movie ended, "That bell is so fake."

"No its not!" Benny protested, "I believe so I would be able to hear it,"

"Everyone would be able to hear it Benny." Sarah said while rolling her eyes.

"You know," Nikki said, "A real bell came with the train set."

Sarah rose a eyebrow,  "Really?"

Nikki nodded, "Yep, but onky believers can hear it ring."

"Well..." Sarah trailed off, "Prove it. Go get it."

She laughed slightly, "Dean, come help me look for it."

I got up and followed Nikki up stairs to her holiday decorated room.

"I actually have two." She said while ealking over to her drawer, "One use to be Brie's but I took it cause she took the ball out of mine and it didn't ring anymore."

I laughed, "How about we make it interesting then."

"How so?" Nikki asked as she grabbed the bells.

"Give her the one that doesn't ring at first." I say to her,

"Then give her the one that does ring." Nikki said, finishing my thoughts exactly, "You never know though Dean, she might be able to tell the difference."

"I can trick her." I say with a laugh and take the bells from her and place the real one in my jacket pocket, "Now come on."

We walk back downstairs and back into the living room where everyone was watching a christmas special om TV.

"Did you find it?" Sarah asked.

I nodded and gave her the broken bell. She inspected it at first, the raised it to her ear and shook it. She looked it in shock when there wasnt any sound.

"Dean." She whined while continuing to shake the bell, "Why isn't it working?"

"Well," Hunter said, "Do you believe?"

"No.." Sarah trailed off, then shook her head and shoved the bell back in my hand, "Maybe its broke..."

"Well if you believe," I say while quickly switching the bells while she had glanced away, "If you believe, then maybe it'll ring."

She rose a eyebrow, "Are you sure that's gonna make it work?"

I nodded, "Just say that you believe."

She sighed, but mumbled the words quietly, then slowly took the bell from my hand and repeated the process to what he had done to the first one.

"Dean!" She shouted, "It works! It's ringing! Benny it's ringing!"

"I hears it!" Benny said while running over to her, "Wing it again! Wing it again!"

I smiled as Sarah shook the bell again and her eyes lit up some. I honestly hadn't seen her this happy before...

"You know Sarah," Nikki said, "Since you got it to ring. You can have it."

"You don't want it?" Sarah asked, "But the ringimg is so pretty."

Nikki gave her a small smile, "I stoppe hearing the ringing a long time ago sweetheart... I want you to have it. Take good care of it and dont stop believing."

Sarah smiled just as the clock stuck and rung eleven times. I hadn't even realized it was that late.

"We need to get you two to bed." I say to them, while oicking up Benny who looked a little tired.

"But I'm not tired." Sarah said to me as I lead them to a guest room that Nikki said the two of them could share.

"We go through this every time Sarah," I say whole laying Benny on one bed, while Sarah climbed on the other.

"I'm not sleepy either," Benny yawned.

"Sure you aren't buddy." I say with a small laugh.

"But I'm really not tired." Sarah said with a small yawn while getting out of the bed and walking over to the window ciel with the bell in hand.

I sighed, "Well you don't have to go to sleep yet, but you gotta stay in this room Sarah. No wandering ariund the house ok?"

She nodded, "Ok. Goodnight Dean."

"Good night Sarah." I say while giving her a small smile while walking out the door but not closing it all the way.

"Star?" I hear Sarah say, just as I had begun to walk down the hallway, "I got a lot to talk about tonoght ok? I'm gonna go fast cause I'm sleepy

I raise an eyebrow and walk back to the door and see that Sarah had pushed back the curtains ad was looking out into the night sky.

"Ok," Sarah said,  "It was a realy good day Star. Matt gave me half his cookie at school. I was so happy, like we talked and everything! I think he likes me,.. but he always talks to Janet so I don't know..."

'Who the heck is Matt?' I think to myself.  She was nine years old, she doesn't need to be worried about a boy... Hell, she doesn't even need to think about a boy,

"I got to hang out with Deany and Nikki and everyone today Star," Sarah said again with a yawn, "It was really fun. We decorated and it looks pretty. Then we watched the Polar Express. Nikki gave me her bell. It didn't ring at first but I jut had to believe, then it rang,"

"But I don't know what their talking about," Sarah said, "Believe in what? I don't think they mean Santa Clause... What am I suppose to believe in? Am I suppose to make something up?"

She yawned and laid down on the ciel some, resting her head on the window.

"Well," she yawned, "Im gonna believe that I'm gonna get a family someday..."

I stood there and waited for a couple of seconds to see if she would say anything else, buy she didn't.

I walked over and picked up her small body, and carried her over to her bed. I lay her down and kiss her forehead lightly.

"You know what Sarah." I say quietly to myself as I exit the room, "I'm gonna make that true one day."
