Gift Giving II

Ryan had a look of total bemusement on his face at this scene, this had been a first ever for his holiday event. A mistletoe aided kiss. He had contemplated doing so with his girlfriend Anampo, but perhaps out of a sense of freedom wanted it to be others involved in the moment. After all the entire event was to give to others. He gave a thumbs up to Clyde, though he wouldn't see it.

After all this time it seemed like that was something no doubt the many fans of Tension had wanted to know and see, well it finally happened. It was bound to have, given the many interactions between the two. The dancing passion hadn't really been one to seek out a significant other in the past, they had to really catch her attention or earn her respect and prove they were worth the devotion of Eliza. She smirked before gracefully accepting Clyde's kiss, it was a faint one but enough to for him to know it.

Eliza then turned her head shyly to one side, her long hair helping to hide her tinted cheeks. Though she sighed in content, it seemed to have finally occurred. Despite her dancing background romance was something rare for her, however she had chose to take this chance. And see what future would come from this decision, she trusted Clyde enough for this.

"Congratulations to the pair of you!" Ryan said, applauding to the new pair. John followed suit with Lucy giving a small giggle in the background.

Ms Harenwood smiled at Clyde and then bowed to the UK Elite and stated "Thank you again for inviting us Ryan, I think we'll be departing though. You have that other gift I have though right?"

The paragon replied with "Of course, don't be strangers though. Feel free to stop by anytime. Take care and happy holidays."

Eliza would then turn to Clyde and say "Okay Clyde. Let's go, we've got the rest of the day after all....." the dancing passion would take Clyde by the arm and not even giving him the chance to argue the matter. Besides the UK Elite had other guests to soon come.

Kissing Eliza had Clyde's face about as red as a Christmas light as their lips parted and the two left being stared at by the UKE. Honestly he didn't' know how to feel, kissing Eliza finally felt amazing but it was such a strange feeling and so new. He wasn't normally this shy but this time he felt like a shy schoolboy. She was his friend and partner and it wasn't supposed to be a big deal but it felt like one. It was nice.

"It's... Just mistletoe, y'all." Said the nervous Cowboy as he grinned widely and scratched the back of his head as Ryan applauded while Lucy and John looked on before Eliza said they were going.

"Wait... What? --Oop!" He said before being suddenly snagged by the arm and led out by Eliza without a moment to spare! Barely managing to take his gift before being pulled away with the Dancing Passion!

Eliza wasn't normally known for being pushy with anyone that she was familiar with, however there was always room for exception. Case in point with her taking the lead in all of this, Ryan smirked at Clyde's words. But it was proof in itself, Ms Harenwood was the one who procured the mistletoe after all. With that it seemed that the cowboy was now going to be off with the dancing passion, Mr Knight waved at the departing pair and shutting the door as they departed.

"Seems like a good chap eh boss?" John said.

Mr Knight nodded and said "Indeed, who knows perhaps I may even face him in the ring one day. Wouldn't that be something? It'd be a good bout I'm sure."

With Mr Gastin's gift given the next person was someone known by Lucy Grange, a young lady called Melody White. Like many people who were going to be given gifts by the UK Elite they had been met in the ring, Ms Grange had sent Melody a letter to come on by soon. It wasn't just Lucy that had gotten her something, Eliza had brought something along for her also and entrusted Britain's finest with it. Lucy actually looked more interested as the time approached.....

After their match, Melody was a little apprehensive about meeting up with Lucy, but then again this was the season of good will! So Melody being the nice sweet and somewhat naive girl went along. As soon as she entered her reservations evaporated. She saw Lucy and a huge smile came across her face. Melody rushed toward her with open arms, somewhat dangerous given if this was in the ring she could be running right into a superkick, but Melody was overwhelmed.

She gave Lucy a huge hug and said, "You are so cute!!" It was fair to say Christmas brought out the child in Melody. Eventually realising she was not alone in the room she let go and and stepped back, still wearing her snow boots and huge furry coat.

"Oh sowwy..." she said sheepishly, quickly followed with, "I love what you have done here...."

Now that it was Lucy's invites being the ones coming up she was a lot more active now, she had been looking forward to this. Sure she had gotten a bit on the wrong foot with Melody when they first met, but Lucy had learned to be tolerable. After all if they learned the error of their ways you could extend them an olive branch, and with the season being what it was Ms Grange did just that. And besides Melody was nothing if not full of energy and vibrancy, must have come with the tastes of music she had.

Lucy gave a little chuckle as Melody ran up to her with open arms, she more than happily accepted. Lucy of course had gone for the whole cheerful raindeer persona, she had the antlers and the glowing red nose and made her hair its natural brown to go for the fur coating sort of thing. Lucy said to Melody "No problem, good to see your dressed for the times Melody. Yeah we really touched the place up." Ms White certainly seemed to favour how the abode looked, just like the fireplaced room featured in so many classical holiday films.

Ms Grange's Brother gave a little chuckle and said "Ah so this is Melody, a pleasure Ms. I'm Ryan, Lucy's Brother. John please get Ms White's presents from the tree." Ryan motioned for the master of creation to do so.

"Righto, heya." John said with a nod of the head as he moseyed off to the giant tree that must have certainly been difficult to get through the door.

"Anyways have you been alright since our match Melody? I know we kinda got on the wrong foot, but I reckon we could put that behind us and have a good time in the new year." Lucy said with a nudge of the shoulder to the musical girl.

Melody stood awkwardly as she listened to Lucy and was introduced to the others in the room. "It is nice to meet you all.." Her attention was drawn back to Lucy who still looked super cute in the rudolf outfit.

"Oh its fine, I loved out match actually. I wish I could wrestle like you. The trouble is, these keep getting in the way!" she looked down unbuttoning her coat to reveal a tight T shirt that accentuated her large breasts. Normally this kinda of display would have the male crowd members yelling and cheering, but Melody felt safe in the room so didnt mind so much.

"I would love to learn from you in the new year...."

Lucy smiled warmly at Melody's words, it wasn't just the nice words that the girl used. She also had that sort of tone of voice that made her pleasant to listen to, Lucy couldn't recall having met anyone like that back at school. Granted Melody didn't use the eloquent terms that Lucy's Brother did, but she didn't need to. The musical girl talked about Ms Grange's wrestling ability, expressing a desire to have it also. Melody referred to her very ample bosom, in stark contrast to the grapes of Ms Grange. Lucy gave a little chuckle and said "Well hey, we can make it a new years resolution to get you on the right track. Make sure 2017 is the start of your brand new tour, I'll show you what I know. Then you can prove you got the goods to everyone."

Ms Grange hardly considered herself capable of teaching anything to anyone, save for maybe changing one's outlook on life. But hey she'd been in a wrestling ring long enough to maybe at least show someone how one could land on the mat in a way that wouldn't damage yourself anymore than what your opponent would obviously try to attempt.

John had a couple of wrapped gifts that he handed to Lucy who then would say "Okay well first we have something from a certain Eliza Harenwood, she had to go though so she left it here. I bet it's a dress. From yours truly though.....I racked my head with John here and we got you a guitar made for you and an album from Oasis."

"They're classic!" John interjected, a clear fanboy reaction.

The blonde girl rolled her eyes before saying "Check em out Melody."

"We stuck a Union Jack pattern on it to make it look like the one Noel Gallagher used one time! Happy holidays pal." Lucy said with a smile, the nail would be hit on the head there with the gifts tailored to the individual.

Melody smiled at Lucy feeling happy with the potential tutoring. Her attention was drawn to the John who approached. When she heard what the presents were the musical girl let out a high pitched squeee and bounced with excitment.

"OMG OMG OMG...." she repeated over and over holding the dress against herself and twirling like she was in some sort of show. This however pailed in comparison to the reaction for her next gift. A Guitar! The one thing Melody loved more than anything. She took it and held it out admiring it. Her face lit up and she was dumbstruck for at least five minutes.

"OMG OMG OMG OMG.... " she let out suddenly and thanked her generous friends. "You guys...." she said, now feeling a bit overwhelmed

Part of what made the holidays so great in the minds of the UK Elite was seeing the reactions of people when they got the things that made them happy, they could take various forms. But Melody was probably in the top 5 best reactions, which was unsurprising perhaps given that Mr Knight and the group tried to ensure the gift(s) would be well liked. The musical girl had acted very much the part of a kid at the 25th, it had inwardly made Ryan and Lucy feel like kids again. Though Mr Knight simply stood where he was with a grin on his face. Lucy giggled at Melody's reaction, the girl was a beacon of brightness. With all the bad stuff in the kitchen sink it was good to see a good soul like Melody, next year could be her year. Lucy would pitch in if it was wanted, everybody had to start somewhere.

The group would wait for a minute, let Melody get all of that admittedly totally enjoyable sprit out of her. Lucy would then pat her on the shoulder and say "No worries Melody, you take care now and I'll hopefully get with you in the new year. Take care now."

With Melody having gotten her gifts the next person on the list would be due to arrive some time later, it was another blonde by the name of Belinda Northman. The Swede had been someone Lucy had gotten to know in the ring and in her mind warranted a gift, plus her Brother was always saying she made friends that had blonde hair. A trend that had been noted by Ms Grange herself.

"Say Lucy, whatever happened to that one girl? Gabbie I think her name was." Ryan said.

Lucy was silent for a second before sighing and said "She uh, had to go home. Pretty sudden, didn't know when she'd be back."

Mr Knight was silent, though he put a hand on his Sister's shoulder in reassurance. Shouldn't be too long till the delightful Ms Northman showed up.......

Not long after did the younger of the Northman siblings arrive. It was sort of odd to be here if she was honest. Sure she and Lucy were friends and had a pretty good repor with her, though she didn't really know Lucy's friends. Still she figured she would show up and greet them and of course say happy holidays and the like. 

Belinda wore a red winter jacket with a white polo sweater underneath, a pair of black leggins and a lovely black skirt. Brown leather boots and a silver pendant around her neck. Her short blond hair having a bit of snow on it as she came into the building. Waving towards the people as she saw them " Hello! Happy holidays in here ~" Belinda let out with a bright and cheerful smile accompanied with a rather peppy attitude.¨

She would walk up towards Lucy and move up to offer her friend a light friendly hug. " How are you doing there princess ? " The Swede let out with a bright smile towards her friend.
