Marinette pulled the baking plate with the fresh baked cookies out of the oven. It was 7pm and she had an hour left before her friends would arrive. This year they would spent their Christmas at her place, changing out their secret Santa gifts.

Her parents were out tonight to enjoy some Christmas dinner party together and probably wouldn't come back home until midnight. So they had the place for themselves, which was great because Marinette didn't have to worry about her parents trying to embarrass her by telling her friends and boyfriend embarrassing stories of her childhood like they did a few years ago.

They told them a story of how she as a kid made a mess of the kitchen when she was five years old. Back then she tried to make Christmas cookies with her mother, but ended up getting the bowl with the ingredients on top of her head. She was completely white due to the flour and the raw eggs dripped down her her hair, over her face until it eventuality landed on the floor. Due to the fall of the bowl some of the flour had been spread into the air and landed on some different places onto the floor as well.

Worst part was that her parents even showed them a picture of the event. On the picture was Marinette standing completely in shock and complete white, the bowl was still on top of her head and her eyes were widened as well as on the edge of starting to cry. Alya simply made a joke that she already had her clumsiness at such a young age and Nino joined in a few seconds later, joking along with Alya.

However Adrien stayed quiet, as he probably didn't knew how to react at that time. Marinette was worried that he thought she was stupid or something, but he later told her she looked pretty cute as a five year old with flour, sugar, butter and raw eggs all over her.

"Marinette can I have one of those cookies?" Tikki asked, causing Marinette to get back from her thoughts.

"Actually they are for tonight Tikki." Marinette said.

Tikki pouted lightly before she looked at her holder with puppy eyes so she could get one. After all she knew that Marinette can't take it up to the puppy eyes, it was her weakness.

"Okay you can have one cookie, just one. I need the others for tonight."

Tikki squeaked in delight before she flew towards the baking plate to take a cookie. Marinette wanted to warn her that the plate was still very hot, but to her surprise it didn't had any effect on Tikki as she was able to pick it up easily and eat it right away like the cookie was just room temperature.

After Marinette had decorated the cookies she started to clean up the living room. It wasn't that messy, she just cleaned some of the dust form the shields, vacuum cleaned the floor and shook up the pillows. After that she placed the present she got for Adrien under the Christmas tree.

It was 7:50 when the doorbell rang. Marinette got to the door as soon as she could, as she was in the middle of applying her makeup. She had changed into a beautiful little black dress that had a little bit of silver glitters on the fabric and already had put on some subtle Smokey eye shadow and a winged eyeliner. All that was left for her to do was adding some lipstick and some glitter by her eyes.

She opened the door to reveal Alya who was standing there with a big winter coat on and a tick scarf. She didn't wore a knit hat like she normally would have with the cold weather, but Marinette guessed that that must be because she had put her hair up in a high ponytail.
