I do NOT own Naruto
Naruto smiled at Kelsea as he dragged the girl from her room, saying something about this being Sasuke's first true Christmas without Nikki.
They were all nineteen now, and Sasuke, like Kelsea, was whining about how they didn`t want to have a Christmas Party, but Naruto being Naruto, forced them to do this.
When she got downstairs she saw all the people who had hated her previously because she was Nikki`s twin.
Now, most people are probably thinking, why does Kelsea hate Christmas?
Simple really, every Christmas she spent with Orochimaru was a living hell, the man was even more irritable on Christmas, making the normally lovable girl very tempermental.
Also the fact they never really celebrated it, even though sometimes she`d go to Kabuto`s lab while Orochimaru was sleeping and would have dinner with Kabuto, who was now dead, thanks to her beloved Oneechan...
She noticed the Sand Siblings were also there, she ran up to Gaara and basically tackled him, "Gaara-kun, I haven`t seen you since I was five!" she squealed, happy to see her old friend.
"Do I know you?" was Gaara's only reply.
"Shiinto Kelsea here, you knew Oneechan and me when we were little," she whispered.
Jessica, who was sitting next to Gaara, was glaring at Kelsea, making Kelsea slowly step back, afraid of the other girl's glare.
"Jessica-san! How many times do I have to tell you to be nice to Kelsea-chan?"
Kelsea turned around, only to see her faovrite pink headed girl, "Sakura-sama...." she whispered.
She was pulled into a hug by the strong girl, making Kelsea blush.
"Sakura-sama, you're hugging me--can`t breath," she muttered, making Sakura release her hold on the brunette.
Kelsea turned back to see who was here, Kiba and Hinata were standing together, talking, blushing, they were such a cute couple.
Then she noticed her sensei talking to Kakashi, with their little boy running around them, trying to get their attention.
"Otousan! Okaasan!" he whined, making both Chijou and Kakashi laugh, Kelsea simply smiled.
Then she looked back to where Gaara and Jessica were sitting, and noticed that her other teammate had arrived, with TenTen.
"Jessica-chan, I haven`t seen you in a year!" Cameron exclaimed.
Jessica shook her head, "I`ve been in Suna, I saw Nikki....wait, you`ve seen me when Nikki was there you liar!"
At the mention of that name everyone turned to look at her, besides the ones who had been there.
Kelsea looked at Jessica sadly, "You saw Oneechan?"
"Yup, Nikki has become much stronger since she left, though she got killed thanks to Sasuke and Kakashi---" she was cut off by Kelsea screaming.
"Oneechan got killed?" she cried.
Jessica glared at her, "As I was saying, a young girl appeared, and brought Nikki back to life at the cost of her own, thanks to Orochi-baka's persuasion...."
Kelsea sighed in relief.
"Good thing too, Kankurou, Gaara, and I would be quite sad if she died," Temari said, Kelsea looked over, noticing Shikamaru, who had obviously been dragged here by his girlfriend against his free will, reminded her of Naruto.
Naruto and Sasuke all of a sudden seemed to get really nervous, especially Sasuke.
"I think I`m going to go to bed..." he whispered.
"Sasuke-kun..." Sakura whispered.
"Sasuke-sama, I`m sure Oneechan would like you to have a nice Christmas, so please stay..." Kelsea whispered.
Sasuke ran up to his and Naruto's room.
"Sakura-sama, I think Oneechan is here..." Kelsea whispered.

A Konoha Christmas Party: Chapter 2 by Nikki_Yaoi
Author's Notes:
Yes, Nikki just won`t stay out of my stories xD She is horrible like that you know?
I do NOT own Naruto.
Sakura, upon hearing the news that Kelsea sensed Nikki quickly ran to Sasuke, "Sasuke-kun! Kelsea-chan senses Nikki-san!"
Before Sakura could say anything else Sasuke ran past her, and to the door, opening it, looking outside, "Nikki-neechan! Where are you?" he cried, hoping the name 'Nikki-neechan' would convince her he really wanted to see her.
Kelsea was held inside, "Don`t interfere," Sakura whispered.
"But I want to see Oneechan!"she yelled.
Sasuke stood face to face with a figure in a black cloak, the only thing he could see was one golden eye.
Sasuke ran over to the figure, hugging the person, he felt two arms wrap around him, thin fingers clench the fabric of his shirt.
He watched as the person put it's head on his shoulder.
"Don`t leave..."Sasuke whispered.
There was no reply, but Sasuke felt the shoulder of his shirt slowly get wet and he knew it was thanks to tears, the figure, who he assumed was Nikki, was crying.
"Please speak,"Sasuke muttered as more of a request then demand.
"If I do, can you forget all about me?"
"No...Nikki-neechan,"Sasuke replied.
There was a long pause.
"I came here to wish you a Merry Christmas, like I do every year...." Nikki whispered.
"You stopped asking questions a long time, didn`t you?" Sasuke mumbled.
"Yes, because, the answers have always been there," Nikki sighed.
"Is this the only time of year I`ll see you?" Sasuke asked.
She lifted her hea up and pulled down her hood, "I don`t know, I came because I didn`t know if you`d have someone there to wish you a Merry Christmas, someone to understand you, that's all my presence was needed for afterall."
"I wish itachi hadn`t killed them, then you`d be here, with me..." Sasuke said.
"Would Okaasan and Otousan be proud of me?" Nikki asked.
"Not of what you`ve become, but they'd probably be happy about how beautifully you`ve grown, how you found someone you love, how your heart is still in the right place, and how you remember them and make sure I`m happy around Christmas time," Sasuke replied.
"I`m sorry I`ve ruined your Christmas Party...." Nikki sighed.
Sasuke reached his hand out, touching Nikki's cheek, her skin was soft, delicate feeling.
Nikki put her forehead against Sasuke's, her cold, missing-nin forehead protecter hitting against Sasuke's, a small metal 'clink' being heard.
"By the way, Sasuke-kun, I got you something, but don`t look at it until I`m gone," Nikki whispered.
Sasuke sighed, "Stay a little longer?"
Nikki smiled weakly, "Okay."
"Nikki-oneechan?" came a child's voice, Nikki looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Kisho, looking up at her with sad eyes, Sasuke took a step back.
Nikki kneeled down and held her arms open, allowing the child to hug her, and as he did, she hugged him back, "Kisho-kun, please don`t tell your okaasan or otousan about this, okay?" she whispered, her face buried in the silver locks of the child.
After a few moments of staying like that, Nikki released her hold on the child, allowing him to run back into the home.
Nikki then turned to Sasuke again, pulling out a green and orange box from her cloak.
"Sasuke, I`m going to leave now, please wait till I`m gone to open it.... please," Nikki whispered, giving her old friend one more hug before running away.
Sasuke walked into the party and up to his and Naruto's room, where Kelsea, Neji, Saku, and Naruto were waiting.
They all noticed the box, and watched as Sasuke sat on the bed next to Naruto and slowly opened it.
Inside the box, there was a fox plushie that said 'To Naruto', a red rose that said 'To Neji', and then, there were photo's, a letter, and a kunai that had the nams Sasuke and Nikki enscirbed into it.
He gave the plushie to naruto and the rose to Neji, then looked at the pictures, they were of him and Nikki during their childhood, many pictures of them with Itachi and Nikki`s parents, many of them playing together, and then, there was one last picture, it was of Nikki, a recently taken picture.
It showed her smiling weakly and she had her hands place over her heart.
Sasuke took out the letter and started to read it, it said:
Dear Sasuke,
I`m sure you are wondering about that last picture, it has a connection with the rest of the pictures.
It shows that despite the fact that they are gone, I still have a heart, I still have hope, and I can still be happy, even if it takes extra work.
And even if you don`t believe this is true, though I told you it countless times when I was a child, I love you, I love Gaara, I love Neji, I love Temari, I love Jessica, I love Kankurou, and I love Neji, just because I`m gone doesn`t mean I`ve stopped loving you, just because I`m now out of your lifes, even though we are enemies from now on, I still love you, and never, EVER forget that.
I still love you,
Nikki.
Each of them read the letter, "She still loves us, for someone so evil, she sure has a big heart," Naruto whispered.
Sakura frowned, "But that`ll change, time does things, it changes people, but, I know, you know, we all know, she will never stop loving you."
"This is why I hate Christmas, it is too sad, too sad for all the happiness it is suppose to bring," Kelsea whispered, they all nodded.
Mabye this Christmas Party had more meaning to it then they had first expected , and yes, all the pain did come back, but mabye, just mabye, this time it was worth it all. Every heartache, heartbreak, every tear drop, everything had possibly been worth it, and that was all that had ever matter.
Because Christmas was and still is about love, and now they know, Nikki still loves them all.
And love cannot be replaced.
