"Wish them all a happy Christmas from us," Sabine said as Marinette, Alya and Nino all got out of the car.
 
"I will. Thanks, Mom."
 
"Have a good time, sweetie."
 
Marinette pressed the button.
 
The camera came out of the wall. "Hey, guys!" Adrien's voice came over the speaker, sounding excited.
 
Marinette squeaked a bit in surprise. "Adrien! Hi!"
 
"Come in!" The gates started to open.
 
By the time they got to the front door, Adrien had already opened it. "It's great to see you!"
 
"You too. Merry Christmas, dude."
 
Adrien closed the door as they exchanged greetings, and he took their coats. "Father's just gone upstairs to get Nathalie; they'll be down any minute." In a hushed voice he added, "Everything's good to go."
 
"Great," Alya said. "We've got the rest."
 
"Let's set it out now, while they're out of the way."
 
Adrien led them through into the living room, which looked more homely than the rest of the house, hung with tinsel and lights, and with a large Christmas tree by the grand fireplace. Unlike the tree last year, it was decorated with a large number of decorations that had been clearly made by Adrien when he was much younger.
 
Alya, Marinette and Adrien quickly placed the gifts under the tree and Nino stood watch at the door.
