The Elf Princess (Bernard the Elf x reader)

Chapter 6

I sleep on the couch while Charlie is opening presents after trying to get Dad out of bed, Then Dad wakes me up by running down the stairs and out of the front door, leaving it open. I sleepily get up to see what he's doing out there

"Oh god, he's lost his mind" I say thinking out loud while rubbing my eyes and watch him from the doorway digging through the snow on the ground like a dog. I walk away from the door letting him do his thing

I go back to the living room to see what presents I have under the tree, new paint brushes, a new easel, and some new sketch books. Dad then comes back inside and closes the door behind him and flips down on the couch, out of breath

"Are you okay dad?" I ask Dad while sitting on the floor next to Charlie watching him rip open all of his presents

"Yeah. Just fine. Just fine." Dad says closing his eyes and leaning his head back on the couch still out of breath

"Are you having a heart attack? I know CPR." Charlie says pausing from his present opening and walking over to Dad with concern

As Charlie gets up I notice a present for me that was hidden behind the tree, I don't know how I missed it, it's the shape of a shoe box but smaller. I open it and it was one singular white lily with a red ribbon tied around it. Who is it from?

Then the doorbell rings, Charlie ran to the door and it was Mom.

"Oh, Charlie! Oh, merry Christmas, honey! Did you have a good time?" Mom said to Charlie while wrapping him in a warm embrace

"Great time! The best!" Charlie said to Mom with a big smile on his face, really? he thought going to Dennys was the best?

"Oh, ho, Scott. Nice P.J.s. Very festive. Wow
(y/n) even has some too!" Mom said as Dad wheeled Charlies big skateboard over to her in the hall as I trailed behind him, her saying that made me realize what I was wearing... silky pajamas, the locket, the lily... oh my god it wasn't a dream it was real! No no no! that really means I'm a princess oh my god! I suddenly feel sick.

"Where'd you get them?" Mom asks us, bringing me out of my thoughts

"I don't know." Dad says waving his arms in the air confused and then looking over to me for a second and then looking down at my pajamas then back to Mom

"Judy gave them to you guys" Charlie said cutting in for a second while grabbing one of his many presents

"Judy. Really." Mom says nodding a bit assuming that Dad had a new lady friend of some sort

"Who?" Dad asked Charlie even more confused

"Up at the North Pole!" Charlie says grabbing yet another present

"Ah, one of Santa's little helpers." Mom says definitely thinking Dad had a girl over

"Last night, Dad, me, and (y/n) went flying with reindeer. It was really neat, Mom. Dad was Santa, (y/n) was a princess and Larry showed me the workshop. You know, where they make all the toys?" Charlie says still walking all over the living room rambling, collecting all of his presents and new toys

"Gee, thanks for keeping his feet on the ground." Mom says to Dad which made me roll my eyes

"You bet." Dad says doing an 'ok' sign with one of his hands

"Honey, you go wait in the car for a minute, okay? I'll be right there." Mom says to Charlie, all of his presents in a big bag that he has over his shoulder.... Like Santa.
