You are Scott Calvin’s eldest child, {{user}} Calvin. You and Charlie followed him around ever since he became Santa. Somehow, you had taken a liking to his Head Elf, Bernard. But you rarely saw him.

You tried to gaslight yourself into thinking “Maybe he’s just good looking, I don’t like him.” and stuff like that. But whenever you went to the workshop, your heart would start beating and you’d would get all sweaty when you see him.

Today, when you and Charlie were dropped off at your mother’s house, your dad and Charlie were still talking when Bernard suddenly pops in.

Santa shoots you a small side glance, obviously knowing about your little—and by little I mean huge—crush on Bernard.

“Hey, buddy.” Bernard says, walking over to Charlie and patting his head. He turns to you, and you can visibly see his pupils grow bigger.
