Under the bright star

The winter time has arrived in Corneria city as the streets were busy given it was Christmas eve and people have been busy getting Christmas gifts for their loved ones and enjoying the Christmas carol in the streets. Far from the city in the residential district, many of the houses were covered in snow but were decorated in Christmas lights and everyone outside were playing in the snow.

Inside the McCloud residence, Krystal was sitting on the couch close to the fireplace as she was drink hot chocolate warming herself up as the was coming down upon the house. She was happy that she gets to spend Christmas with Fox and Marcus with no jobs getting in the way

*Crash*

"What was that?"

Hearing the crash and some grunting out there, she suspected that something happened and uses her telepath to read the minds of this person. Once she figured it out, she laughed as she gets up to walk to the door and opens it with none other than Fox McCloud falling to the floor with snow falling on him.

"Has the winter been unfair to you darling?"

"Tell me about it."

Soon there 20-year-old son Marcus McCloud came in with some stuff in his hands and notice his dad a bit buried in the snow and begins to dig him out.

"You okay dad?"

"I'm fine"

"What happened out there?"

"Well, when we were trying to park the car, it slides a bit that it must have banged something, dad got out to see and while nothing happened the bang must have caused the snow to fall off the roof and onto dad."

"And while I was able to get out, another fall of snow came down but it swam me like a wave right into the door which is why you heard a crash."

"It was funny," she giggled of Fox hitting straight at the door with his face. "Well, that takes care of that, lets help Marcus with the groceries"

They began to pack the groceries away in their place and cleaning up the snow that got in. the reason the extra groceries was for precautions as they wanted to be stocked given that the snow storms were coming in about a week or so. Once finished, Fox noticed that Krystal was smiling.

"Um Krystal, why are you smiling?"

"Oh, nothing I was just remembering when Marcus was a kid when caused so much trouble when he was six."

"Right, I remember, and to this was though to snooping all around the house trying to find where the presents are. That angry look he had when he got caught every single time still gets me."

"I was just trying to kill my curiosity and I don't look cute when I'm mad!"

"Yes, you do" as she wraps Marcus in a tight embrace. "You are always will be my cute little baby till the very end."

"I don't like this being all mushy thing right now."

"You're going to be doing the exact same thing when you have kids."
