It's their first Christmas as husband and wife, the first in their new cottage, the first time decorating together. What surprises are waiting for them?

Mrs. Hughes keeps everyone's secrets, and it can weigh heavily on her at times. Maybe, it's time she shared her burdens with her butler. (Carson/Hughes)

Xiomara Hooch can't stop meddling into the lives of Albus and Minerva. This time she may have gone too far when she manages to portkey them into a muggle fairy tale...Sleeping Beauty.

A careless comment at an outing…an angry Minerva…a confused Albus…a helpful friend...and a pensieve. Will Albus see the error of his ways and more importantly the love in his heart?

Minerva has always been curious by nature. When an opportunity to look into an old journal that Albus writes in at every staff meeting presents itself she finds the temptation too great to pass up. What she finds will change their relationship forever.

A snowy Christmas Eve for Charles & Elsie ... pure fluff!

Sometimes, a little nudge is all it takes to make a butler show a little bit of interest in a housekeeper. The question is ... how will he go about showing her he is interested in more than friendship?

Carson planned a wonderful day at the beach for his staff. Now, it's up to Elsie to plan a little surprise for Carson.
