The Christmas Suprise

I had been out working collecting wood for the fire , it had gotten late so I started to head home dragging the log filled sled with me. It was heavy so it took me longer to get home. I had reached the door and went straight to my room. I took off my clothes and opened my window as soon as I got into my room. I walked over to my bed and sat down . How long had it been since I had moved out here a year or more. I left home when I was just seventeen and had moved out here to the country. It was peaceful out here and I enjoyed living by myself but I was lonely. It was Christmas night so I went to sleep shorty after my head hit the pillow. I woke with my alarm going off "Damn it why did it go off anyway I had set it to go off at 10:30 am" I looked at the clock "Fuck it was 11:00 am" I had over slept. I head out to the kitchen to get my morning cup of coffee. I was still in my boxers and did not care what people thought it was my home and I live how I lived. So I sat my coffee on the table and deiced to put on some pajama pants. I walked over to the hamper I kept next to the fridge and found some Pinky pie pajama bottoms and put them on quickly and slipped on my Derpy Hooves Slippers. I loved My Little Pony and did not care who knew. I was going back to my room with my coffee in my left hand until I heard a noise from the living room. I sat my coffee down on a stand with a picture of my family and a vase that I did not use for much. I quickly ran into my room and grabbed the bat that I had standing next to the left side of the wall and started to walk towards the living room door when I heard the noise again. As I entered the living room I walked towards the tree and notice a present was placed there for me. Weird because I had told no one where I lived and then the box made a noise which made me drop the bat and jump a foot in the air. I was trying to walk towards the box when I was close enough I touched it and it was not moving or making noise so I placed it on my couch and deiced what was in it was alive. I had started to remove the top of the box until I heard a voice "Daddy? Daddy?" I had started to freak out until I took my hands off the lid and seen it rise all by itself what popped out was a light blue little filly who stared at me with neon blue eyes and yelled "Daddy Daddy Daddy!!!" She jumped out of the box and almost hit the floor luckily I had caught her before she hit the ground I sat her on my lap and she smiled at me and I smiled back not sure if this was a dream or not. She had a Snowflake cutie mark and she was calling me Daddy. I knew this had to be a dream so I took my left hand and pinched myself really hard *ouch* not a dream. She looked at me "Daddy you ok?" "Yes I am don't worry umm.....Snowflake." She smiled as she got a name that day. She looked at me later that day and tired following me outside as I got my stuff on to go back to collecting wood I knew I could not leave her alone so I sat her on the sled. She was screaming for joy as we where going down the trail. I had found some pieces that where stuck in a snowbank next to a tree I had recently cut. I picked up the pieces of wood and stuck them in my bag and looked at the sky it was starting to snow and I was worried that Snowflake might get sick so I rushed home and we made some hot chocolate for the both of us she smiled at me and we watched a couple of shows together both of us fell asleep on the couch. Time went quicker when snowflake was around. Four years had passed I had watched her grow and taught her how to read and write. She was nice to have around and I did not feel lonely but I had a feeling in my gut that time for both of us would be cut short. One day she asked me where she came from. I still had the box from when she appeared that morning that changed my life. "Snowflake I don't know where you came from but you came one Christmas morning and just appeared under my Christmas tree and that is all I know". "Hey dad I love you" She said. "I love you too sweety" I said. We had fallen asleep and where both snoring until I had landed on the floor with a thud. *OWW* I said which had made Snowflake look down and laugh as I laid on the floor. We both Smile at each other and drank some hot coco Later that day I went to work. Snowflake had followed me to the spot where I had been cutting down trees for fire wood. I was in the middle of cutting a piece of wood when I had heard a scream from somewhere in front of me. My hand had been holding the wood and next thing I knew I had lost three fingers. I had taken of my shirt and wrapped up the hand and started to run towards the screaming. I noticed that a dog was chasing my daughter. She seen me and ran behind me and I bent down to get a stick. She was stopped running as soon as she was behind me and the dog was getting closer and closer. It was in arms reach *Snap* went the stick when I hit it over the dogs head. I seen the dog yelping and picked up my daughter with my good hand and we walked home together. I had picked up my fingers that where on the ground. She noticed that I was hiding my left hand away from her and she was started to look worried. I had sat here on the couch and went into the kitchen. I had grabbed the first aid kit and bandaged my hand I had left a trail of blood on the ground. I had cleaned it up before Snowflake walked into the room. She seen that m hand was wrapped up. "Daddy what is wrong? Why is there blood on the floor and what is wrong with your hand?" I looked at her "nothing don't worry I am fine go back into the living room. I will be right there ok? She looked upset and walked back into the living room. I sat down next to her and she looked at my hand. I told her it was nothing but she seen that my hand was missing some fingers. She looked horrified and started to cry as she thought it was her fault. I told her it was my fault that I got hurt and I hugged her not letting her go. We where both asleep in minutes after that we where in each others arm and passed out on the couch after that horrifying event.
