I debated this for a while, and decided to do it. These are chapters or small bits that I want to put into my stories in the future! I type them all the time, and decided to let you guys see them early! But I you don't want to see any of them, then...
"I don't know which one you are, but you're definitely the cutest reindeer of them all." Ben teased Emma, who sat in a fake Christmas present dressed as a reindeer. Ben was dressed as Santa. "When did I become one of those parents?" He scoffed, then melted when he saw Emma again. "Probably two seconds after I saw you in those little antlers."
"Okay, Santa baby, let's move it along." The photographer announced, walking by impatiently. "Christmas is just around the corner and so is my next break." Ben nodded.
"Yeah, we'll just be another minute." He told the photographer, just as his dad walked in, wearing a wise man costume.
"Well, what do you think? Does your dad look like a wise man?" Ben nodded, standing up.
"Wiser than you did last night." Ray looked at his feet.
"Yeah, that probably wasn't the best time to come out to your mom." Then he sighed. "You know what? I think I'll do it the old-fashioned way and just blurt it out at Thanksgiving."
"And the Christmas angel is upon us." Bonnie announced as she stepped out of the dressing room. "Hey, maybe later we can ditch the fat man and you can try to tarnish my halo." Ray looked uncomfortable, and Ben put himself between them, leading Bonnie away.
"Okay, Mom. You'll be standing over here." Bonnie nodded, a little confused.
"I know, but I was-"
"W-way-- way over here. Okay, all right." Ben stopped her, really wanting to get the picture over with.
"Okay, this isn't a social, people. Let's shake our tinsel makers and get a move on." Ben nodded, poking his head into the dressing area.
"Okay, guys, come on! Let's go!"
"Alright, alright! Keep your beard on!" Came Brooke's voice, and she came out in a snowman costume that was pretty... Fitted.

"Brooke!" Ben exclaimed, trying not to be attracted to Brooke's costume. "What happened to the costume I picked out for you?" Brooke's eyebrows rose.
"You're joking, right? That thing made me look huge! This is the kind of outfit I'd want to be taken a picture in and post on my Facebook so that people can tell me how cute I look!" Ben looked at her outfit, wondering how she wasn't showing yet. He had bought a much larger costume for her so that if she had begun to show, nobody had to know.
"Right, but the other costume looked like an actual snowman! You just look..." He was trying to avoid to word hot.
"Okay. It's official." Tucker told them as he came in dressed as an elf, carrying a giant candy cane. "I can't possibly be more humiliated." Ben grinned.
