I opened my eyes to the sun coming in through the window. Niall was gone, so I got out of the bed and walked down the stairs. I sat on the living room couch, turning on the tv. Twenty-fifth of December? That was today?! I jumped with joy. I need to get my present out for Niall. I rushed over to my bag and took the wrapped present out. I walked back downstairs and put it under the very tiny, fake, Chrismas tree on the table. Well, next to it.
"Elizabeth, you up?!" I heard Niall's voice come through the opened door.
"Yeah!" I sung getting off the couch.
"Wait on the couch for five more minutes, i'll be right back." Niall's voice had excitement in it. I liked the sound of it.
"Okay!" I smiled as I sat back down and turned my attention to the tv. Stupid commerical, I want to watch Rudolph! I pouted a bit waiting for the commericals to end.
"Elizabeth!" A voice sung through the house, as the door closed.
"Yes?!" I mocked the same tone Niall had.
"Merry Christmas!" He smiled popping his head in the room. I got up and rushed to him for a hug. His hand behind his arms, with the present he held. I kissed him on the cheek and back away to grab my present for him. I walked to him and held the present behind my back too.
"Merry Christmas." I smiled at him.
"On the count of three, we give each other our presents. 1,2...3!" Niall said putting his present infront of him. I took his present and ran, keeping the other one too. "Hey come back here!" Niall chuckled chasing after me.
"Come get it!" I squealed when he almost caught me. I slipped on my coat are ran outside holding the presents in my hands, running as fast as I could. I was laughing like crazy, running, and teasing Niall. He knows me better than that!
"Elizabeth! Come back here!" I heard Niall's now faint voice. I looked back at him, just coming out of the house. I was at the beach now, so close to the ocean's waves. I smiled, regaining my energy to run again. "Elizabeth!" Niall complained getting closer and closer.
"Hello!" I smiled as the cold wind blew. My smile turned into the smirk as he got closer and closer.
"May I have my present now?" Niall asked reaching for it.
"Under one condiction." I smirked as he pulled me close.
"What?" He whispered on my lips. I got on my tippy toes, kissing him ever so slightly. He walked into me no, kind of throwing off my blance, and deepened the kiss. He wrapped on arm around my waist as one cupped my cheek, the moved to my head, as if to craddle it. I wrapped my arms around his neck and tried to keep myself on my toes. I felt my whole body go numb from the kiss. I couldn't feel a thing, other than Niall's lips on mine. Even though my eyes where closed, I could still picture how the kiss looked. Perfection.
Snap, snap, snap. The sound scared me, and made me jump from Niall. Niall looked at me with eyes widen. The sound must had scared him too. I grabbed the now a bit sandy, presents as we looked towards the sound of the snapping. Cameras, I sighed and looked at Niall, knewing that now our kiss would be all over magazines. Niall grabbed my hand as he took the present that was given to me before, and ran with me behind him. Knowing that people would follow us, he ran past the house and into a far away ally.
"I used to hide here all the time, playing hide and go seek." He chuckled under his breath. I smiled at the thought of a tiny Niall running in a dark ally to not be seen.
"When will they be gone?" I questioned.
"Soon, hopefully." He sighed looking at the sky. We waited for a good twenty minutes before Niall walked out of the ally and stay there waiting for people to come at him. No one came, after five minutes of being outside of the ally. He smiled and waved me over, as we ran back to the house, making sure we still had our presents.
He handed me the present as I handed his. He smirked as he carefully unwrapped it. I waited to see the look on his face. I couldn't wait to see it. He finally unwrapped it and stared at the object, perfect O lips. I smirked at his reaction to a signed Michael Buble cd and t-shirt. He looked up to me with one of the most biggest smiles I ever seen. I gave him an 'your welcome' hug.
"I love you so, so, so much!" He smiled and kissed my forehead.
"I love you too." I smiled up at him.
"You'll love me even more with your present." Niall said, releasing me from his warm grip. I tried to be need with unwrapping the present but since the tape left tears, I decided to just be messy and tear the wrapping paper apart. i opened the medium box and looked inside, a tiny box and a teddy bear. I liked and wanted another teddy bear. And it had a tag that read: I beary much love you! I giggled at the beary part. I opened the tiny box, it had a ring that was ingraved. It said: With all my love, Niall. I felt tears stinging at my eyes for a second, but soon I brushed it away and gave Niall a huge hug. "Can I be honest with you?" Niall smreed down at me.
"Yeah," I trailed off, now kind of scared.
"This was one of the best Christmas' I ever had." He kissed my forehead again, keeping me in his warm hug. I smiled up at him.
"Honestly, this is mine, too." I giggled.
"Good." He smiled widly. He picked me up and kissed me all over, causing me to laugh like crazy. Once he stopped he slipped my ring on my finger and placed the teddy bear on the couch. Still in carrying me, he walked to the kitchen and placed me on the top of the island. "What do you want for Christmas dinner?" He questioned taking the phone from his pocket and showing me the numbers he had. I was in the mood for Italian food. I smiled and pointed to the number.
"Hey Bobby!" Niall smirked at me and told the order. We waited for the man to come over here and give the food to us. Niall sat next to me on the Island. "So," He playfully raise an eyebrow. I shrugged as he kissed the corner of my mouth causing me to melt. "Um, I think, um, I missed?" He playfully questioned himself causing me to laugh. I looked at Niall and nodded proudly. He grabbed my chin lightly and lifted it up, kissing my lips deeply. I could feel Niall smiley throughout the kiss, causing me to smile too. I couldn't think of a better way to smile, than this way. We pulled apart just before the doorbelle rang. We rushed to the door and grabbed our food, paying the nice man, with a good Christmas tip. Niall and I set up the table and then sat down to eat the delicious food.
"Merry Christmas, Baby." Niall smiled before taking a bite of his food.
"Merry Christmas, Nialler."
