The Everlark Carols (Part 11, Please Come Home For Christmas)

Happy December, Everlarkers! Apparently, I’m just very good at remembering things this Advent season because I’m late again in getting this posted. After a lot of angst and a complete restore of my laptop, I took a bit to recover from the sheer terror of losing all my stuff–including the rest of this story. Merry Christmas, indeed! For those of you who read the first part, you might have noticed it’s a sequel to Blue, the story I wrote two years ago for @everlarkchristmasgifts​. Enjoy part 11! Assuming I can step away from my family a little bit tonight to edit, the remaining two parts will post on Christmas Day.

I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus Underneath the mistletoe last night She didn't see me creep Down the stairs to have a peep She thought that I was tucked up In my bedroom, fast asleep Then I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus Underneath his beard so snowy white Oh, what a laugh it would have been If Daddy had only seen Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night He saw Mommy kissing; kissing, kissing, Santa Claus I did! I really did see Mommy kissing Santa Claus And I'm gonna tell my Daddy Then I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus Underneath his beard so snowy white Oh, what a laugh it would have been If Daddy had only seen Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night Oh, what a laugh it would have been If Daddy had only seen Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night I did! I did! I really did see Mommy kissing Santa Claus You gotta believe me! You just gotta believe me! Come on, fellas, believe me! You just gotta believe me!

Through the years we all will be together

So hang a shining star upon the highest bough

And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Let your heart be light

From now on, our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Make the Yuletide gay

 From now on, our troubles will be miles away

Baby, all I want for Christmas is you You, baby Oh, all the lights are shining so brightly everywhere And the sound of children's laughter fills the air And everyone is singing I hear those sleigh bells ringing Santa, won't you bring me the one I really need? Won't you please bring my baby to me? Oh, I don't want a lot for Christmas This is all I'm asking for I just wanna see my baby Standing right outside my door Oh, I just want you for my own More than you could ever know Make my wish come true Baby, all I want for Christmas is you You, baby All I want for Christmas is you, baby [repeat with ad-libs until fade]

I Only Want You For Christmas EverlarkChristmasGifts Day 8

This is a continuation of Santa Baby and I’ll Be Home For Christmas. You can find links to both fics here.

I Only Want You For Christmas is definitely NSFW, and clocks in at 5,375 words. It’s a doozy :).

Rated E under the cut. And completely unbeta’d, so all mistakes are my own.

Hope you enjoy!

“I don’t think the snow plows have been out,” Peeta commented as he opened the car door to let her inside. “The roads are completely covered.”

It’d been snowing lightly when they arrived a few hours ago, and the weather hadn’t let up at all while they were inside the restaurant, leaving downtown Panem looking like a winter wonderland. It was beautiful, if you were into that kind of stuff.

You'll never fool me again Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year To save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year To save me from tears I'll give it to someone special A face on a lover with a fire in his heart I gave you my heart A man under cover, but you tore him apart Maybe next year I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone special Special Someone Someone I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone special Who give me something in return I'll give it to someone— Hold my heart and watch it burn I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone special I thought you were here to stay How could you love me for a day I thought you were someone special Gave you my heart I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone— Last Christmas I gave you my heart You gave it away I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone—

Lyrics under the cut:

O holy night, the stars are brightly shining. It is the night of our dear Savior's birth. Long lay the world in sin and ever plight, 'til He appeared and the salt felt it's worth. A thrill of hope, the weary soul rejoices, for yonder breaks a new and glorious morn'.

Fall on your knees. Oh hear the angels voices. Oh night divine. Oh night, when Christ was born. Oh night divine. Oh night, oh night divine.

Truly He taught us to love one another. His law is love and His gospel is peace. Change shall he bring, for the slave is our brother. And in His name, all depression shall cease.

The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger. In all our trials, born to be our friend. Christ, Christ is the Lord. Oh praise His name forever. His power and glory shall evermore proclaim. His power and glory shall evermore proclaim.

oh, Fall on your knees. Oh hear the angels voices. Oh night divine. Oh night, when Christ was born. Oh, night divine. Oh night, oh night divine
