Noel, who worked part time at an orphanage slowly walked into a small room to check on all the sleeping kits.
Slowly he stopped as he noticed one small kit sitting by the window gazing out into the night.
walking over he gently sat beside the child before tilting his head to the side
"hey buddy... What are you doing up so late?"
The small kit turned to look at Noel with surprise, before resting their head against the glass with a small frown.
"Guess I couldn't sleep"
Noel giving a puzzled look slowly turned his gaze to the window as well.
"That's not like you, you're usually the first to fall asleep, and the last to wake"
"guess I'm just nervous..."
"nervous?"
"Yeah..."
"why are you feeling nervous?"
"I'm just afraid they won't like me..."
"Are you talking about the couple that adopted you?"
"Yeah..."
Noel slowly grew a warm smile before looking at the kit and pulled him closer to himself.
"Oh buddy, there's no reason to be nervous. They're great people, and you're an amazing kid, there is absolutely no reason why they wouldn't like you. In fact they are going to love you so much, they're going to want to hug you, and kiss you!
They'll probably even hug you so tight, your bones will pop."
The kit let out a small chunk before looking up at Noel with a small smile.
"Are you sure?"
"Positive. Now then, you should get some sleep, You are so lucky, you're getting the best Christmas gift ever! And we wouldn't want you falling asleep on your best day, would we?"
"Hehe no, I guess not"
Slowly Noel placed the kit in his before bed before gently tucking him in and sitting beside him.
And gently began to sing him off to sleep.
