christmas eve by _rosiecheeks_

Winter was not the time for everyone. Especially not for Holly, who was snowed in her college building. To her bad luck, she had decided to leave for home on the twenty-first, unlike her friends, when a snowstorm had suddenly hit town. She had cursed mother nature's name. All she had wanted to do was get home as late as possible to shorten the time she would have to spend with her mom and stepdad... but now, she would never get to her destination in time. According to the news, the snowstorm would last days, the consequences might even weeks. And being the only one in her college building could become very lonely... but maybe she wouldn't be as alone as she had expected. To make everything better, Cade Thindal hadn't gotten his ride back home either. - 🥈Second place in the Carnival Awards 2021

For seven years, she's kept her feelings carefully under wraps because he once made it clear nothing would ever happen; she's too young and he's her boss. But on Christmas eve, just as she's ready to let go of him and move on with her life, the weather gets in the way. Being snowed in with him at work changes everything. As the night evolves, it becomes evident to Octavia that Caleb might like her more than he lets out. When the truth breaks, they make a deal: for as long as the blizzard casts them away from the rest of the world, they agree to give in to their deepest desires. Will they want more, when the snow starts melting in the morning?

Be Home For Christmas ☑️ Re-writing by sweetkiarine

Christmas-it's the most wonderful time of the year. Who couldn't agree with that? Gathered together in front of the fireplace, drinking hot chocolate and embrace the warmth of each other presence, goofing around with the loved one, decorated the Christmas tree. Oh, what a wonderful time of the year. Everybody was busy preparing their trip to come home for Christmas, so did the Gables. The huge family of nine either live in different cities or busy with work. But that's not just it. Everything seemed to block them for coming home for Christmas. James once told that he would be the first home from his three other siblings. But his fate said otherwise. The twins had urgent project to finish. Alexander, well he was trying to have a little time for himself away from residency. Along the way, they created a history that would never be forgotten. The bad luck that hit James turned out to be a Christmas joy. The twins' urgent project was a great success and became the turning point for their band's career. Alexander experienced the wonder of nature that felt more like a winter wonderland. Long story short? An eventful journey to come home for Christmas.

17 Days & Die ✔️ by ishikasbookshelf

[NOW TRADITIONALLY PUBLISHED WORLDWIDE] "A life of happiness would be hell on earth." • When Grace finally decided to end her life, the last thing she expected was to meet a stranger simply gazing at the stars, dangling his feet over the edge of the bridge, exactly where she had planned to jump into the abyss and end it all. What was supposed to be the last hour of Grace's life becomes the hour in which she poured her drunken, broken heart out to a stranger over a bottle of scotch and a fresh round of tears. However, before they parted their ways, the stranger offered her a deal: she must promise to hold on to her life for another seventeen days, and afterwards, she could do with it whatever she'd like. He promise to even attend her funeral if he couldn't change her mind. But why seventeen days? And why did this stranger even care? There was more to him than what met the eye, and compelled by her own curiosity, Grace couldn't refuse. Maybe these seventeen days will only prolong her suffering. Or maybe they'll open her eyes to a part of life she never knew existed, full of hope for a brighter future. And maybe, just maybe, she'll learn to fall in love. • [FEATURED UNDER NEW ADULT, YOUNG ADULT, GENERAL FICTION, HUMOR & ROMANCE] • [Extended summary inside] [Started: 1 February'2020] [Finished: 24 January'2021] ©️prettyimbecile

Christmas Alone With You (AU!Dean Winchester x Reader) by winchester-girl67

Y/N's lost all hope for the holidays. She has no one to spend time with and she's stuck in a dead-end job. Even if she loves taking photographs, it isn't paying the bills anymore and she gets evicted from her apartment right before Christmas. As if losing everyone she ever cared about wasn't enough. She just can't catch a break. Dean has to take the first job that comes his way in order to make Christmas happen for his young daughter. And playing Santa at the mall isn't so bad when the grumpy photographer catches his eye. Apart, they're just scraping by. Together, they're slowly healing old wounds. This holiday season won't pass without some icy patches, but that makes opening hearts and taking risks worthwhile. Warnings: mature language, financial struggles, injury, past abandonment/death, pregnancy (not reader), mature themes
