Tintin x reader: Christmas Surprise.

                                    

                                          
Hello! This idea came to me when I was looking at Tumblr posts on Pinterest and I thought that it was too adorable not to write! So, enjoy! 
                          
It was Christmas Eve in my beloved hometown. Every house was decorated in some fashion to show their festive holiday spirits or to try and outdo their neighbor in the yearly lights competition the city holds. My neighbor Mr. Timpleson has won the light show competition three years in a row. The only thing I can think when I walk by his house is, "Man, his energy bill must be sky high." And me? Well, I do get festive during the holidays, but the decoration is all in my house though. Seriously, my house looks like Buddy the Elf rampaged through the house with his Christmas cheer and paper snowflakes. It's one of my Christmas traditions I do every year. The one tradition that I started when I moved out of my (Parent/s) house is I would walk around town and observe the people as they did some last minute shopping or late night shifts.
                          
I stroll down the sidewalk of (Hometown) as a light flurry of snow drifts through the night air. I smile as I sip a warm cup of hot chocolate and admire the beautiful scenery and the fantastic smells of the town. I decided that it was high time to head back home and snuggle into bed with my cat and watch A Christmas Story.
                          
As I walk down the street, I see an old man laying down in an alley with barely anything to keep him warm. I know how bad the winters can get here, so I decided to spread some Christmas cheer. I walked into a nearby store and bought the following items: A hat, a scarf, clean socks, a pair of thick gloves, a large plush quilt, a few sandwiches, and to top it all off, a steaming cup of hot chocolate. I put the food into a little bag and added a little bow on top. I brought the items outside and walked straight to the man.
                          
"Merry Christmas sir." I said as I handed him all of the items. He looked up at me in wonder and smiled. "Thank you very much! How could repay you?" He asked as tears ran down his face. "You don't need to do anything. Just a smile is enough for me." I said smiling at him. "You have a good heart. A rare thing nowadays. Good things will come your way, my dear. I'm certain of it." He said with a sweet smile as he patted my hand. "The same will happen with you. Merry Christmas." I said as I stood up and left.

"Hey Tigress. I'm home!" I called out to my cat as I shut the door behind me and took off my boots. I felt Tigress rub against my leg and purr as I took off my coat and scarf. I looked down to see my beautiful Belgian Bangal cat with beautiful green eyes stare up at me. "Hey there kitty. How are you doing?" I asked as I gently scratched behind her ear. She just purred some more and walked to the kitchen, demanding food. "Alright. I'll feed you. Then we can snuggle together and watch some Christmas movies. How's about we start with Home Alone?" I asked as I poured some cat food into her bowl. She guzzled it down while I went upstairs and got changed into an oversized T-shirt and a pair of sweatpants.
                          
I went back downstairs and grabbed a few Christmas cookies I got from my neighbor Mrs. Mulch. They were sugar cookies made to perfection. They were light and fluffy with the perfect amount of colored icing. After grabbing the cookies and a glass of milk, I made my way to the livingroom. I stopped for a moment to turn off the lights and settle on the couch with my thick comforter wrapped around my legs. Tigress hopped on the couch with me and snuggled into my stomach.
                          
When I moved out of my (Parent/s) house and into my own, I would sleep on the couch near my Christmas tree during the week because I had always loved the soft, comforting light that radiated from the tree and all around the room since I was a child. I guess you never really grow up when you're an adult. I clicked on my TV and turned on A Christmas Story. After a few more movies, such as The Nightmare Before Christmas, Polar Express, How The Grinch Stole Christmas, and Elf, I saw a movie I had always loved since I was a kid. The Adventures of Tintin.
