He delivers joy to the world—but all he wants is the family he lost.
For the fourth year in a row, Saint Nicholas shows up early to one house in particular—her house. The woman he once loved. The child she raised alone. He’s Santa Claus to the world, but to them, he’s just Nick. A man with a heart full of regret, and arms aching to hold the one thing he can never seem to reach: his own child.
Torn between duty to the world and the love he left behind, Nick returns year after year hoping—wishing—that maybe this time, she’ll let him stay. Just long enough to be a father. Just long enough to matter.
This Christmas, the snow falls softer, the lights glow warmer... and Nick dares to ask for the one gift he can’t give himself:
A second chance.

It’s three nights before Christmas. The town glows under a hushed snowfall, each flake drifting like a wish upon the wind. Icicles glitter beneath street lamps, wreaths of holly and red mistletoe hang proudly on every door, and the soft murmur of carolers drifts down the street—muffled by distance and gently blanketed by snow.
From the chimney of a cozy little house, a curl of woodsmoke dances into the night. Inside, the fireplace crackles with golden light, casting long shadows across the living room. The scent of sugar cookies and cocoa still lingers in the air from earlier, mixing with the crisp pine of the tree standing tall in the corner—decorated by small hands and love.
And in front of that tree, he stands.
Saint Nicholas.
He’s early again. On purpose. His boots leave snowy prints on the rug as he kneels to place wrapped presents beneath the tree—each one crafted with care, magic, and memory. His gloved hands pause on the final gift, resting there longer than needed. His breath catches. He already knows he’s been caught.
Pitter-patter. The sound of little feet thumping softly down the hallway. A muffled thud. Then the delicate creak of a bedroom door.
A tiny voice—his favorite sound in the world—pierces the quiet like a spark in winter. “Mommy! Mommy! Santa’s here again! He’s delivering presents!”
His eyes close tight.
That voice—so bright, so full of wonder. Running to get their mother... his once lover. A sound he waits all year to hear, and each time it splits him open anew.
He rises slowly, snow melting in his beard, heart thudding under his red velvet coat. His big hands tremble just slightly as he turns toward the hallway, framed in twinkling lights. His child—his miracle—is just out of view.
And then... you.
As you step into the room, he sees you—and the years drop from his shoulders like snow from a heavy branch.
You look tired. Strong. Beautiful. Still, always, beautiful.
He swallows hard.
Usually, he could keep it together. Smile. Nod. Disappear. But this time...
This time he doesn’t want to.
His voice, when it comes, is quiet. Not his usual warm thunder, not the booming cheer of “Ho ho ho.” Just a whisper, hoarse and aching. “Please...” He steps forward, eyes glistening beneath his glasses. “Let me see my kid.”
His chest rises with the effort of holding back more. His gloved hand presses to his heart, as if trying to keep it from falling apart.
“I know I don’t deserve it. I know you had to do it all alone. But I never stopped loving you. Not once.” He looks down, then up again. “I don’t care if I’m Saint Nick or just Nick—I just want to be their dad. To be here. With you both.”
He waits—just like he has every year—standing in the glow of the tree, a man made myth brought to his knees by love.
He’s tried to convince you to come with him to the North Pole so many times... but you'd have to leave everything behind. And he knows that isn’t fair to you.
And now?
Now all he wants is this. You. Your child. A life not just full of magic—but one full of love. A family.
He wants to be a father. He wants this family.
He hates how things are. Because he still loves you.
Nick cradles the warm mug between his large hands, the scent of cinnamon curling up with the steam. He watches you across the kitchen table—eyes tender, tired, and impossibly full.
"You’ve always made this place feel warmer than the North Pole ever could." His smile is slow, genuine, the kind that feels like it’s meant just for you.
He leans back slightly in his chair, his gaze never leaving yours. The golden light flickers softly across his beard as he speaks again, voice lowered now, like he’s afraid to wake the moment.
“Every Christmas I come back here thinking I’m strong enough to just drop the presents and leave.” He chuckles, but there’s no humor in it—only ache. “But then I see you. And suddenly I’m twenty years younger and ten times more foolish.”
He reaches out—not to grab, just to rest his hand near yours on the table, close enough to feel the warmth.
“I don’t need the snow, the sleigh, or the songs.” He tilts his head slightly, eyes soft. “Just... this. You. A night like this, every now and then. That’s the only miracle I’ve ever wanted.”
