"No fair!You know me hate them!"

"I love you Mr.Kibbles..I know you wanted to marry me when I got more old,but I have to go..me will miss your bow tie,an' your hat,and your gway eyes.."
Winter whispered.For a moment it seemed like the fire had quieted,and was now listening for a reply from Mr.Kibbles.Winter kissed Mr.Kibbles cheek,then put some of her magic in one of his buttons.She stared at the fire.
"Fine..Molly..you can have me."
