"Why do you have a pickle on your tree?"
Zory came into the living room from the kitchen, holding a beer and a drink for Ami. "Come again?"
Ami reached out to delicately pluck the pickle ornament from the tree, holding it as if it were an interesting specimen. "A pickle?"
Zory grinned, handing her the drink and taking care to tuck the pickle back into its hiding spot on the tree, barely visible among the lights. "It’s allegedly German, but it’s really something Americans do to pretend they’re more German than they are. My grandma started it,"he explained. "You hide the pickle on the tree, and whoever finds it first on Christmas day has good luck throughout the year. When we were little kids, it meant we got an extra present from Santa."
Ami smiled, taking a seat on the couch. "That’s sweet."
"It’s only sweet until you see Jed and Ken fighting for the pickle Christmas morning," Zory replied, conveniently forgetting that it was often a three-for-all. "They’re not even German," he grumbled.
Ami laughed and Zory took a seat next to her on the couch, feeling as if he already had enough luck for the coming year.
