Izaya:They are both horrid. He cringed back. I have something better. What about...

My love, I have tried with all my being

to grasp a form comparable to thine own,

but nothing seems worthy;

I know now why Shakespeare could not

compare his love to a summer’s day.

It would be a crime to denounce the beauty

of such a creature as thee,

to simply cast away the precision

God had placed in forging you.

Each facet of your being

whether it physical or spiritual

is an ensnarement

from which there is no release.

But I do not wish release.

I wish to stay entrapped forever.

With you for all eternity.

Our hearts, always as one.

Or maybe

I love the way you look at me,

Your eyes so bright and blue.

I love the way you kiss me,

Your lips so soft and smooth.

I love the way you make me so happy,

And the ways you show you care.

I love the way you say, "I Love You,"

And the way you're always there.

I love the way you touch me,

Always sending chills down my spine.

I love that you are with me,

And glad that you are mine.

Ciel:

"Those were good," he said, but he shook his head, "but I think if it's going to be a Christmas present from her boyfriend, it should be from me. Not like one of those sappy love cards you can buy at a convenient store or something." He paused for a moment, then quickly said, "Wait, wait, I have an idea. Write down that poem, I'll put it in a card later. I can't write poems anyway." He tossed a pencil and a small note pad to Izaya, then grabbed a hoodie and put it on. "I need to go buy a rose and some toothpicks. Stay here, leave, roll around the floor, whatever, just don't do anything conceivably bad." He walked out of the room, then made his way outside. 

"He's crazy, what is he going to do with toothpicks?" Ryou mumbled to himself, standing up. 

Izaya:He blankely watched the notepad infront of him and glared at the wall. I am an informist! I write enough. He slowly mummbled the last few words out and started to write. That baka...*(Japanese!)* ((Could mean fool, idiot, ect.)) What is he going to do with toothpicks. He shook his head and slid the yellow slip of notebook paper across the table he stood up and glanced outside from the window. Hm. Well I shall be back later. And with that with one swift movement of a hand he unlatched and opened the window not even bothering to look how high the drop down was he flipped off dissapearing from sight.
Tessa:She walked into a store quietly glancing around for the white ribbon. She stopped for a moment and looked behind her thinking it was Ciel. She shook the thought away, he was in his room with his brother. She picked up the string of ribbon and made her way right back to the boarding school.

Ryou:

"What a weird guy," he  mumbled to himself, poking around in Ciel's still unpacked bag. He went through Ciel's things, snooping around as he had the chance. He rolled his eyes as they came across Ciel's violin case, which lay next to the bed. "Tch. He's still playing that instrument... Of course." 

Ciel:

He walked quickly, shivering in the cold. Once or twice he stopped walking, swearing that he had seen Tessa. He shrugged one shoulder and walked into a florist's shop, then quickly picked out what he thought was the most elegant-looking rose. He then walked into the shop next to the florist's and looked at the toothpicks. He slowly shook his head. Toothpicks weren't going to do the trick. He needed something else... Quickly, Ciel grabbed a box of sewing needles and purchased it. He quickly made his way back towards the boarding school, not wanting to be in the cold for any longer. Good, this is good, he thought. Now all I have to do is- He stopped in his tracks, seeing Tessa. Crud! He couldn't be seen with the rose. Quickly and delicately, he stuffed the rose down his hoodie, where it was rather unnoticeable. 

Tessa:Hearing footsteps she turned around and smiled. Ribbons could be for anything of the being so it was fine if she showed the long white string which seemed to take a whiping in the wind. She tried to keep the shiver back but her eyes lit up as a sharp breeze cut right through her. As if she were transparent. She took in a quiet breath trying to collect herself back together. Chilly today isn't it? She asked quietly the words danced around in the wind almost unhearable. Her hair settled back down until the wind came out to play again that is.

Ciel:

He nodded. "It is quite cold." He smiled, and said in a joking manner, "I hope Santa will be able to deliver presents with ease." He tried to speak over the biting wind. "We should go inside, it's way too cold to stay out here." He shivered a little bit, then walked towards the door, holding it open for Tessa so she could walk inside ahead. 

Tessa:She quietly nodded and thanked him for holding the door. You know, She stated once both where inside. Most guys would have walked in and shut the door behind them not caring about girl who stood behind the door. I must be going crazy though...You are not like most other guys. You care and......You are not afraid to show that you care. I like that about people. She heard her voice ring through out the big school. Well thats my room mate. She apparently locked herself out of the room...again.. Well. See you tommorow Ciel. She shyly kissed him a goodbye and rushed upstairs to shush the girl.

Ciel:

"Yeah, see you tomorrow, Tessa!" he called after her, feeling rather... Fuzzy inside. Well, he had only held the door open for her because that's the appropriate thing to do, right? The manners of some people these days, not even holding doors open for one another! Ciel began to walk back to his room, in a good mood after seeing Tessa. Once inside of the room, he took out the rose from the inside of his hoodie (it was a miracle that it was still in perfect condition) and set it on the table. He glared at his brother, who was still going through his things. "Ryou!" he hissed. "Get out of here. You know, some people don't like it when their idiotic older brothers go through their things." 

"Oh really?" Ryou said in a sarcastic tone, moving away from Ciel's things. "Well, then, I'm glad I annoyed you. Merry Christmas." He strolled out of the room, closing the door behind him. Ciel cursed under his breath, and noticed it was cold inside the room, too. He glanced at the still-opened window and closed it. He then sat down at the table with a piece of paper, the poem, a needle, and the rose.

"This is going to take me all night, but it'll be worth it," Ciel mumbled to himself. He quickly made up a nice, sweet tune in his head and slowly took the needle over to the rose. He grabbed a Fine Point Sharpie and moved one of the petals from the rose so it was 'opened' a little more. He carefully drew five straight lines on the petal, then drew a treble clef on it. He took a needle and began to poke holes onto the lines, so they turned into musical notes. The process was slow, and it was about an hour before he was done with the first petal. Chewing on his bottom lip, Ciel hoped that Tessa would see the rose as music, not just a flower with a bunch of holes stuck in it. This was going to be a long night. 

Tessa:No...No...Saki.....Where is he. She glanced quietly almost tear strucken at the other. She sat down. Well I guess there is nothing left then but the ribbon. She laid the white ribbon down carefully  on the table part of it hanging off. I....I guess I will go to bed. See you in the morning Saki.
Saki:Tessa. I'm sorry. I was stupid enough to keep the window open. Please forgive me...I-
Tessa:I know you didn't purposly let him out...He is young and still likes to wander I understand. There are so many new and wonderful...Things that could catch his eye...Well good night Saki.
Saki:Good night. She quietly whispered and sighed. She held back a few tears that had formed. It was all her fault for opening the window. The little bundle of suprise had costed Tessa so much money because when it was born it had a quarter note on it. She sat down in a chair and saw something white. She jumped with joy. Tessa! Tessa! Tessa!
Tessa:Hm...What...What is it Saki?...
Saki:He is playing with the ribbon! She rushed and shut the window and latched it back and scooped up the playful kitten. She held it dearly and smiled she watched Tessa greatfully. I found him...
Tessa:She smiled and pulled her room mate into a hug and took the white kitten with the unusual quarter note on it. How wonderful. Thank you Saki. She smiled and took out a red collar with a small bell attached to it and put it around the kitten. She added the tag on it in case it escaped again. She also tied the white ribbon around him. What a wonderful fit. She nodded to herself pleased.
Saki:Y-you know since tommorow is Christmas....I got you alittle santa outfit. She held the gift box infront of Tessa acting like a young girl. Her eyes wide. She whiped away the sleep in her eyes and gave the present to her. Good night Tessa. See you in the morning.
Tessa:Yes. In the morning. She nodded and laid Saki's present she had got for her beside the bed after she had went to bed. She carefully undone the bow and set it on the floor for the kitten and took off the top of the box and reached in and pulled out a santa outfit.
Saki:Who had pretened was asleep glanced over and Tessa. She lightly smiled. So Tessa. How do you like it. I mean I know you don't like stuff that short but-...The others that where longer went down to the floor and looked like something an elder would wear as a night gown.
Tessa:Well. It is wonderful Saki. Thank you. I am pleased with it.
Saki:So you will wear it tommorow!?!?!?! She asked in a hurry excited.
Tessa:T-tommorow..Um..Well...Yes..I will Saki...I will wear it tommorow.
Saki:Yay! Glad you like it! ^-^ Now can I open my present.
Tessa:Not until the morning Saki. Now go to sleep. She finally falls asleep herself.
((Here is the car.
))
Tessa:She awoke early and got dressed in the little outfit and walked downstairs and outside she held the kitten in arms and had called Ciel to come outside. She looked at the car hoping he would like it. After all it wasn't cheap.

 ((Except her hair is straight. Don't forget the santa hat! ^_^ I tried for anime picture. I really tried. XD))

Ciel:

He had stayed up all night preparing the rose, so a lovely melody Ciel had written was poked into the delicate petals. He had written the first poem Izaya had said in calligraphy on the piece of parchment paper, and he had rolled it up, tying it to the stem of the rose with a blue ribbon. Yawning, Ciel rubbed his eyes and dressed into black pants with a brown sweater. He put on a red Christmasy scarf and a Santa hat, then took the rose and walked outside, as Tessa had told him to do. He walked over to her and smiled, trying to not look tired, holding the rose behind his back. "Merry Christmas, Tessa," he greeted her. He looked at the kitten and suppressed a small 'Awwww'. His eyes then moved over to the car and he whistled. "Wow, nice car! Is it yours? It looks... Expensive." 

Tessa:Oh...Mine?..No. I just bought it yesterday. She laid the keys in his hand. I hope you like it. I mean if you don't I can always turn it back in. She laid the kitten down and it ran over to Ciel and started playing with his shoelaces. She quietly watched the kitten with a small smile and glanced back up at Ciel. Merry Christmas, Ciel.

Ciel:

"A... A car and a... Kitten?" he asked, clearly surprised. But in a good way. "Oh my God, thank you so much, Tessa!" He hugged her tightly, then loosened his hug as he felt his stomach turn into an empty black hole. Tessa had gotten him such wonderful gifts and all he got her was a rose with a hole in it and a piece of paper! Oh well, it'd have to do... He released Tessa from the hug and handed her the rose. "Uh... This is no where as near as extraordinary as your gift, but... Merry Christmas." He kind of blushed with embarrassment and picked up the kitten, stroking its soft fur. "The rose has holes for a reason, you'll know if you look closely." He looked at the ground, feeling sheepish. 

Tessa:Ciel...It's wonderful. This is better than. Than..It's wonderful. It must have taken forever. I feel horrible. All of mine was based on money. It's just. She shook her head in amazment and read the poem. She lightly smiled and a glisten struck her eyes and she pulled him into a hug even before the first tear could drop.

Ciel:

He smiled as Tessa hugged him, and allowed the kitten to jump out of his hands so he could hug her back. The kitten simply went back to playing with his shoelace. "Your gifts weren't based on money, they were the most thoughtful gifts I've ever received. A cat, because, well, I love them, and a car. Now I won't have to walk everywhere." He blinked a few times, feeling his scarf become slightly moist from Tessa's tears. "Are... Are you crying? Was my gift really that good?" There was a hint of surprise in his voice. 

Tessa:She tried to whipe away the tears with her hand. I-I-I'm sorry..I- I didn't m-mean to-to get you w-w-wet. She said through tears in her eyes. She finally caught ahold of herself. She glanced at him and it looked like she was about to cry again. This is the...Most...There just isn't a word to describe it.

Ciel:

He smiled. "Don't worry about getting my scarf wet, it's just a scarf." He smiled and hugged Tessa again. "I'm glad you're happy. And... Thank you so much for the car and the kitten. I love my Christmas gifts." He hugged her once again, then released her. He picked up the kitten and softly scratched the top of its furry head, making it purr quietly. He looked at Tessa. "You're really amazing... Truly." 

Tessa:I doubt. I'm just a person. No one can be amazing. She said quietly glancing at him. She watched as a shadow came out from behind the big school. She lightly smiled. Oh Ciel. Meet my-...Not so quiet room mate, Saki.
Saki:Hi! ^-^ Merry Christmas! So you are the Ciel I hear her talking about so much. She-
Tessa:She blushes and watches her. Saki!
Saki:She smiles. She talks about you all the time.
Tessa:Saki! She takes another step back competly red she watches the ground.
Saki:He seems really nice Tessa. You two are so cute together! ^-^ Aw. That was so sweet. Don't you agree Tessa?
Tessa:Didn't answer she stayed quiet she looked up alittle.

Ciel:

He smiled at Saki, noticing how embarrassed Tessa seemed. He tried his best to not embarrass his girlfriend anymore. "So, Saki, was it? You're Tessa's roommate?" He put on a polite, kind smile. "Well, it's a pleasure to meet you. Merry Christmas." He sent a smile at Tessa as if to say, 'Don't be so embarrassed, it's fine. I don't care how much you talk about me.' 

Saki:Mhm. ^-^ So what are you guys up to-
Tessa:Good bye Saki.
Saki:But I haven't even found out his last name!-
Tessa:Bye Saki.
Saki:Fine! Bye. She walks off.

Ciel:

He laughed a little bit, and noticed the kitten had fallen asleep in his arms. Once Saki was gone, he looked at Tessa. "Must be fun to have her as a roommate," he said with a smile.
