Letters

New Smeerensburg

Third Person P.O.V

Jesper's 6,000 goal stood out on the wall, the curtains moved aside.

Mrs. Krum smirks, holding her cane. "Looks like someone might need help mailing letters..."

"Yeah," Mr. Ellingboe smirks, pausing. "... Who?"

Mrs. Krum blinks rapidly, stammering as she turns to the man. "I-I... I mean-- how have we never defeated you?"

...

With Klaus, (Y/N), and Jesper...

"Yeah! Then..." Jesper continues as they approach Klaus' stables, leading the reindeer. "When she got on the sleigh, I thought, 'oh, no! We made it too small!'," he pats a reindeer with a grin. "But no! It was just the right for her size. And doll!"

He laughs, bumping (Y/N)'s arm as she smiles.

"Those designs on the sleigh were beautiful! She loved it! Right?" Jesper turns to Klaus, hoisting up reindeer feed in a bucket. "I think she did. Do you think she loved it?"

"Yes, Jesper," (Y/N) chuckles, shaking her head in mock exasperation

Jesper sheepishly grins, walking to Klaus and setting the bucket in his hand.

"I do," Klaus agrees as well, amusement in his eyes.

"Yeah, me too, me too. Yeah, she loved it," he continues gushing, scooting reindeer feed to one of the animals.

(Y/N) leans against the stable with a mischievous smirk, "and you loved it too. I've never seen you smile so much. It was nice."

Jesper glances over at her, lightly blushing as he waves his hand. "Pssh! I-I don't know what you're talking about."

"Uh-huh," (Y/N) teases with another giggle, shaking her head.

Klaus chuckles as Jesper pouts, rising and petting the reindeer. "You know... I remember the day I first had that very same smile on my face."

"I wasn't smiling!" Jesper exclaims defensively, (Y/N) laughing loudly.

"It was nice, Jesper! Give me another one," she urges with her own wide grin, Jesper rolling his eyes playfully.

"Doll, I was... squinting. From the sun."

"... Right," Klaus and (Y/N) say in unison as Jesper leans back on the wooden post.

"Now you two are ganging up on me," Jesper huffs, tipping his hat down to avoid their gazes as he fights back a grin.

"I didn't want to admit it first either," Klaus sets down the bucket of reindeer feed. "She used to tease me about it."

(Y/N) and Jesper share a confused glance.

"She?" she softly questions, frowning and noticing the fond, bittersweetness in Klaus' tone.

Klaus starts walking to the workshop, pausing. "My Lydia. I remember when I found this spot in the woods that she loved."

The two follow Klaus as he fondly sets a hand on the wooden beam of the house.

"And I built us a house right here. Away from it all."

Klaus continues as he enters, shrugging off his large coat as Jesper following as (Y/N) removes her beanie.

"But it wasn't gonna be the two of us for long," Klaus chuckles softly, glancing over at the covered family tree.

...

A younger Klaus and his wife, Lydia, finish their little miniture selfs, Lydia handing hers to Klaus.

They reach up together, setting their mini-selfs side by side on the top.
