"OK, you guys" the spirit said, "let us talk about your past." The couple nodded, "Selena, I know it's tough for you to do your homework back then, but I don't think you should hit your mother like that." Selena responded, "I know, I'm so glad I rarely do that." The spirit agreed, "Me too, I also saw some of your best memories in the past, my favorite's gotta be the Six Flags Holiday in the Park." "I went there that time and this year as well, Sonic took me there, along with Amy and Leo!" "Sister girlfriend and Hubby, so much fun!"

The spirit turned to Sonic, "Sonic, what Amy did to you in the past was so romantic, Sonamy forever!" "Yeah!" Sonic agreed, "I wonder if Selena could do that to me as well!" The spirit said, "Yes, a perfect time to be kissed under the mistletoe and I just love your blue tuxedo, makes you look so handsome!" "Thanks, Spirit!" "You're welcome, Sonic!"

Before the spirit departed from the couple, she said, "OK, Sonelena, both of y'all's past is in good shape, and Selena's past in even better shape than last year, I should say." Selena agreed, "Yeah!" "I shall see you guys next year, Merry Christmas!" The spirit said disappearing. "You have a merry Christmas to, Spirit." Selena said as she and Sonic went back to sleep. The Selena sang in a gentle voice.

As a young thing, life sure is somethin'
You go makin' choices large and small
Always growin' like a seedlin'
And playin' is like dreamin'
And before you know it, big and tall
And every little bitty choice you make
Sends you down a path to who I am today
So we took a little trip down memory lane
And see just what the past has to say
Aw, look how cute I was. Looks like you're not too upset it's Christmas either.
The seeds of the past
They grow pretty fast
Just look at who I am back then
The seeds, as they grow
Look what they can show
Reveal the truth time and again
Then some distress, words so careless
Smilin' bright, I do know what to do
Feelin' helpful, I can make it hurt less
So I do not change my point of view
And in that moment, though I always know it
The smiles I bring now I walk around
Leading to the person I've become today
And the life I'm about to live
It all comes from my past
The seeds of the past
We grow up so fast
Sometimes I gotta be strong
The seeds, as they grow
This we can't let go
All tied to this one holiday

Sonic smiled and whispered in his sleep, "Beautiful."
