I heard the bells on Christmas day...
Characters: Wanda, Pietro
Setting: Their NYC Apartment, Christmas Morning
Content: Nothing bad
Summary: Wanda and Pietro have their first real Christmas
The holiday spirit had apparently become drunk on holiday spirits and regurgitated all over the Maximoff apartment. Having never properly had Christmas before, Wanda did not understand that when decorating for the holiday there was definitely such thing as too much. Only a few days before Christmas she suddenly decided that she had to decorate and so she'd gone out and spent an obscene amount of money to get it done.
Although all of the Christmas decor was tasteful, it happened to be in far too great an abundance. A tree dressed in red and golds towered towards the ceiling where a string of red and white lights adorned the tops of the walls. Golden garlands with red baubles wound around the staircase railing and the ceiling lights continued into other rooms. Crystal snowflakes glittered in the windows and colored glass knickknacks covered every available surface. A smaller tree stood in the dining room where each place setting sported the same color motif as the rest of the house. The apartment's balcony had not fared any better and it too sported garlands and lights. It had taken a small army of tradespeople to assemble all of the festive accouterments and it would probably only take a run around from Pietro to get it all down.
On Christmas morning she woke early and put a few small gifts into the stocking she'd hung for Pietro over the fireplace and then she lounged on the couch and watched television until he awoke. Already the holiday was losing its charm and she decided she would be pleased to see the decorations go.
