“Man, this place went to hell...”  he muttered, fingers running through his hair enough to make sure it covered his pointed ears. Bernard didn’t know if anyone else in this place-District12, was it?-still believed in Christmas && Santa Claus, but he knew of one that did. Primrose Everdeen. So many letters at the Pole were from her, && though most were slightly absurd requests (get rid of the districts, make my sister happy, etc) there was one he could fulfill. She’d wanted a cat. 

So he got her a cat. Carrying the ball of fluff in his hands, he snuck into the district, trying to find her house. All he had to do was leave this little guy on the windowsill && get out of there, which wouldn’t be that hard since he could just disappear && reappear back to the Pole once he dropped the kitten off. Dropping off the cat was the hardest part.

“Are you sure?” She will ask, she didn’t want him to get cold either. She would lean up and kiss his cheek quickly. “Okay then, if you are sure about it, then I’m ready to go for cocoa.” A nice hot drink and just spending time with him, sounded good about now.

“Prehaps I am just extra happy to see you today?” She’s still smiling, but will pull a cute look to him. “Why are you not happy I’m this happy to see you, is it too much~?”

Instead of an answer she’s going to approach and kiss his cheek now. A small smile on her lips now as she stepped back. “Nope just cause I’m getting to see my favorite Head Elf is all~”

Now she softly smiles as she felt his weight against her now. She will move his hat and softly move his hair from his face now. It was sweet how he tried to resist. Lucky there was a blanket near by which she would carefully pull over his lap and her a little bit too. “Good night Bernard.. Sleep well..” She wouldn’t move in case she woke him up.

“Maybe we should test this take me on a date and we will find out won’t we?” She grinned back at him now. “Though I think I would already know who will be the better one out of you two!”

She would hold onto him for a few moments, hearing him call her Marshmallow it made her smile softly and blush just a little bit. She would look up to him. “…do you want your coat and hat back now for that?” She would ask wondering if he did or not.

She pause and bit her lip now. She should have known that. But she had thought because he was head elf maybe he did. She took a few steps towards him as she then will wrap her arms around him, not sue for why she felt the sudden need to hug him. “I-I’m sorry..but I could never get mad at you either..not truly.. I’m sorry Bernard..”

She will smile softly,  just listening to the fire crackling  softly and even that seemed quiet in the silence, not that she minded.  She had seemed to arrive in the middle  of everything being busy for Christmas and so it was nice to have some proper quiet time, she also didn’t know how long she would actually be staying here, so she was going to enjoy this time while she could. She would look up hearing  him speak to see him stifle a yawn.  She will lean up and press a soft kiss to his cheek.  “Bernard, if you are tired, you shouldn’t be forcing yourself to stay awake.. I don’t mind if you want to sleep..”  She didn’t mind at all she would rather him rest after all his hard work.

“Nope try again Bernard~” Actually it was probably a really simple reason for her to be so happy. But still she is going to smile as widely as possible. “Something more better than that.”

There is a soft giggle and  a soft heat rising to her cheeks tinting them slightly red.  “So if I date your shirt, I get to date you free of charge too?”  She will widely now,  the pick-up lines may have been  bad, but kinda funny too.

There is a pause in her spinning  and posing as she looked over at him.  She was pouting a little now.  “I was only borrowing it.. It always looked so warm and comfy on you..I wanted to see if it was.. also I wanted to surprise you…”  She’s going to pull the cutest look she can as she looks to him.  “Can I do anything to make you forgive me~?”

“Is it really not obvious why?”  She’s not going to give him a straight answer.  She’s going and will make him attempt a  guess or two.
