HP's POV

Harry woke up in his small hut. He looked back at Jack laying by his side and holding Harry to his chest. He smiled and turned towards the Christmas tree. He shrieked loudly, waking Jack from his slumber.

"Wha... what...?" Harry snickered as the frost spirit already had his staff in his hand ready for an attack, only to then realize Harry's happiness. "What is it?"

"♪ It's morning! The sun has risen! ♫"

"So?"

"It's Christmas day!"

Jack took a full minute understanding what Harry meant and then the two were on their two feet hurrying up to the tree, only for Shadowmen to grab them midway and force them away from their gifts. Both turned with a groan towards Father who smirked back.

"You know the rules. Bath, dress, food."

Harry and Jack shared a look with a groan.

"Bath together?" they both suggested, only to, when Father release them again, both storm to the bathroom together at full velocity.

KPs POV

Pitch sat by the hut's dining table as his family made a mess in the bathroom. He looked up as Aster and Nicholas arrived. Nicholas looked dead on his own two feet. A gift was set before Pitch. Pitch raised an eyebrow at the Santa Claus and opened the lid.

"Couldn't exactly put it with the others where Harry could get to it, now could I?" Nicholas asked back.

Pitch made the shadows take the gift away into his room in the lair and grabbed his teacup, sipping his tea.

"I'll make certain to tell Jack it was a gift." He agreed.

The two returned fully dressed, yet wet to the bone. He pretended not to notice as they sat down on the table and woofed down food as if they had never seen food before in their lives. As soon as they finished they were out the table faster than the shadows could transport Pitch and were before the tree opening gifts.

"You always make them do this." E. Aster Bunnymund commented amused.

"I may no longer be a creature of darkness, Aster." Pitch retorted. "I'm still the Bogeyman."

Pitch looked at Harry as he played around with Jack with their new toys. Harry wasn't the usual Guardian. Just the fact that he believed was enough to keep the belief. Pitch looked at his own light-skin. It would've take some time to get used to.

"Manny's plan turned against him. That be certain." Nicholas St. North agreed.

Pitch nodded, his eyes on his son and lover.
