"Let's open them together, ok? On one. Three...two....one!" Ripping the paper off the box, her eyes widened in wonder at the sight of beautiful music box. Smiling gently as her eyes took in every detail of the box, she opened it adventurously and was a bit shocked to hear the lovely melody sprung forth from the confines of the box.
"Izumi...It's so pretty!! Thank you!!! I love it! This is really nice! I've never had something so nice like this!" One of the happiest thoughts sparked in her mind; she could put her bell necklace from her biological brother into the safe, pretty box that her second brother had given her.
((Oh no! I haven't watched much but what I've heard of the song is really pretty! ^^ And Izumi is getting a box of chocolates as well as a hamdmade bunny plushie with 'Merry Christmas, Izumi!" one one sole of the bunny's foot and 'From Bell-chan' on the other. I changed it a bit from the post XD ))

Oh. His gift. Yellow eyes looked down at the package. Sighing, Izumi knew it would hurt the girl if he didn't open it. It was just a little weird, the Shinigami wasn't accustomed to receiving gifts. Opening the present, yellow eyes widened. Suddenly, a warm chuckle escaped the cold Shinigami. "So this is why you asked what my favorite animal was." Taking out the plushie, Izumi examined the toy. "Thanks Bell-chan. I really appreciate this."

Sliding off her bed, she wrapped her arms around him tightly, squishing the bunny in between the two of them. "You really like it? Her ears are a little floppy, I'm sorry about that, but I thought it was ok since some bunnies are supposed to have floppy ears?"
The music of the box tingled along in the background and she couldn't help but feel perfectly happy with the sound. She made a resolution to memorize the melody as soon as possible.

Sooner or later, she was going to find out. How much longer was later?
"The ears are just fine, Bell-chan. You worked really hard on this, didn't you?"

"I know it's not a very manly gift or anything, but it's the thought that counts, right? I did work pretty hard on it." She admitted, humbly looking down with a little smile to scratch the back of her head.

"A gift is a gift, Bell-chan. It would be incredibly rude for me to worry whether or not the gift looked "manly." Just as long as I know the one who made it is a very sweet girl, I can live with it."

"I'm just glad you like it, Izumi. I was hoping you would. You don't have to sleep with it or anything. I just wanted to make you something by hand. I think the bunny turned out all right."
