(A bit late but merry Christmas!)

Seren rushed down the stairs, running into the living room. His eyes lit up at the presents under the tree, immediately running back upstairs to wake up the rest of the family. Seren entered Hunter's room, climbing on the teen's bed. "Hunter! Hunter! Santa came! Wake up!" The child said as he shook Hunter. Hunter woke up slowly, groaning. "Seren..? What time is it?"

"I dunno! I can't read!" The child exclaimed, Hunter sighing. The blonde boy flipped over and looked at his phone. "It's seven in the morning! Let's go wake up Cyrus!" With mischievous energy flowing through Hunter's body, the two went into the oldest's room. "WAKE UP CYRUS! IT'S CHRISTMAS YOU FOOL!" Hunter shouted, Cyrus sitting up immediately. "I'm up, you brats. Which one of us is getting the baby?"

But Hunter was already in the nursery, quickly changing Riley. "Now that you're cleaned up, let's go get mommy and daddy!"

"Mama!!" The toddler cheered, smiling.

Hunter quickly fixed Riley's pajama shirt before walking out of the nursery with his little sister on his hip. The two other kids nodded before barging into their parents' room, with Riley being placed on top of Night. "Mama! Mama! Mama!"

Night awoke at the sound of her daughter's call, smiling warmly. "Hi baby girl." She said tiredly, and Riley just hugged her. Meanwhile, Seren was on top of Sunny giggling. "DADDY WAKE UP!!! SANTA CAME!!!" The young child was poking his father repeatedly, squishing his cheeks with his hands. Sunny woke up with a jolt, before attacking Seren with tickles.

"DAAA AHAHA STOOOP!!!" Seren laughed, kicking.

"Nope!" Sunny smirked, continuing his attack.
"Sunny, how about we go open presents?" Night suggested, playing with Riley's hair.

Sunny got excited, throwing Seren on his shoulders before running down stairs, the older boys chasing after him

Seeing all the presents made the kids gasp in awe, the two toddlers especially excited.

Night sat with Riley on her lap, watching as the little one tore at the wrapping paper. It was the first time she's ever opened a gift on her own, and the mother was incredibly proud. The gift was the upgraded Heeler Family Home, causing Riley to kick happily. "MAMA!! BOOEY!!!"

Night chuckled. "I see, baby!"

Seren opened his gift next. It was the space themed playtent he wanted. "WOAH!!! SANTA BROUGHT WHAT I WANTED!! HE KEPT HIS PINKY SWEAR!!!" The child cheered, bouncing off the walls. Sunny smiled warmly, seeing the joy on Seren's face was absolutely worth it.

Hunter cautiously tore at the wrapping paper, eyes widening at the gift inside. It was a hoodie with wolf ears. Hunter happily thumped his foot against the floor, hugging his parents. "I AM CRINGE BUT IM SO HAPPY!!!"

Cyrus tore his first present open, smiling with joy. It was a bunch of beanies. "Sweet. Some new swag. Thank you, universe for blessing my head with BEANIES FUCK YEAH!!!"

Sunny stared at his oldest, Night stifling a laugh.

Many more presents were open, Riley getting some new outfits and toys, same with Seren. Hunter got new hoodies and a sewing kit. Cyrus got some new games, a jacket and some pins.

Night and Sunny received some cute things from their little stars, including a mug set made by Cyrus, an ornament made by Riley at daycare, a painting of them done by Hunter, and a Christmas art project from Seren.

After a few hours of unwrapping and chaos, four big boxes remain. The two little ones knew these weren't from 'Santa', rather their mommy and daddy.

Cyrus opened his big gift, revealing an entirely new gaming setup. The teenager screamed so loudly, Sunny and Night swore they heard a window break. "HOLY MOLY I'M GONNA HAVE SO MUCH FUN WITH THIS!!!"

Hunter approached his box and opened it. The boy shed tears. Inside was a handmade plush of Flapjack made by his mother, a framed photo collage of the boy and his beloved bird companion made by his father, and a painting of Flapjack done by both of his parents. Hunter was so overwhelmed with emotion, that he sobbed in his parents' arms.

Seren's eyes lit up when his big gift was revealed. A space themed clubhouse for him and his friends to play in. "THANK YOU MAMA AND DADDY!! ME AND KING ARE GONNA HAVE A BLAST!!!"

Sunny and Night hugged their star baby, before setting their eyes on Riley. Night put Riley on the floor, the two tearing at the paper. Riley was confused as to what it was, only seeing Bluey on the packaging. "Whassat mama?" She asked, Night shedding a tear. She flipped the box over, pointing to the picture of the toddler bed on the box.

"This, my sunset, is your big girl bed!"

Riley understood now, immediately getting excited. The small child even tried opening the box, only for Cyrus to scoop her up. "Hold your horses, silly. Daddy and mommy will set it up later."

Seren was rambling on and on about the cool adventures that were soon to be had, giggling.

Hunter clutched the Flapjack stuffie to his chest, smiling. "Merry Christmas, Flap.."
