Asa Butterfield Book 1

kitten

I sat under the tree trying to dig around under the tree looking for my presents looking around at all the little perfectly wrapped gifts checking all the tags.

"Y/n? What are you doing?" I heard Asa ask behind me so I came out from under the tree him stood in his shorts and his loose-fitting white shirt his arms crossed over his chest as he looked at me

"Nothing... there was a mouse" I lied

"A Mouse? Really? We have two cats y/n. Why would you need to chase a mouse?"

"Uhhhhhh it was eating into the presents"

"Was it?" he asks "Where are you trying to find your presents?"

"Maybe" I blushed "I was just trying to see if there was a nice little box for me"

"A little box? What kind of little box?" he asks sitting with me

"I don't know... something pretty" I giggled nuzzling on his shoulder

"Yeah? Well, as you're so curious? How about we get dressed and I take you to get one of your presents early?" He suggested

"Really Asa?"

"Really" He nodded so I gave him a kiss and ran upstairs to get changed. He followed me getting dressed too and grabbing his car keys. I sat in the passenger seat looking at the various things in a bag in the back footwell and I looked at him curiously as we drove through the busy snowy streets

"Where are we going Asa?" I asked

"Somewhere" he smiled as he drove

"What's my present?"

"You'll find out"

"Why do I get it early?"

"Because it's better if you have it early," he says "And you won't stop bugging me about it"

"Is it pretty?"

"It's beautiful," he says as he stopped the car in front of a house

"where are we?" I asked

"Come on" he smiled offering his hand so I got out the car and took his hand as he leads me to the door of the house knocking a couple of times and the door opened

"Ahh Morning Asa" a man smiled opening the door "You here for her?"

"Yep, Just uhh she doesn't know" Asa laughed indicating to me

"Awww I see well come on though she's all ready for you" The man smiled as we headed to the house and to a small room where on a little pillow surrounded by toys I saw a little black

"KITTEN!" I smiled excitedly kneeling on the floor next to the pillow as the little kitten woke up opening its big blue eyes to see me, the little kitten got up and came over crawling into my lap

"Like her?" Asa asks

"She's so pretty" I smiled

"Well she's all yours y/n" he smiled sitting with me "merry Christmas sweetheart"

"Aww thank you Asa," I smiled, giving him a tight hug "Can we take her home?"

"Of course" he smiled giving me a kiss "You wanna give her a name?"

"Kimi" I smiled

"Okay, let's take Kimi home and let her meet her sisters"
