(Jared's POV)
After decorating the Christmas tree placed near the fireplace, everyone grabs some fruits for dinner and heads back to their room knowing that tomorrow will start early as is the custom every year. As everyone leaves to their respective rooms for an early night, Jensen follows me when I walk into my room. I go into my bathroom to brush my teeth as Jensen walks towards his clothes to strip his jeans and change into knee length shorts comfortable to sleep. I give him a Tylenol for his cold which he swallows dry and trudges towards my bed for the night. Watching him get comfy on my bed makes me wish he stays with my family and me forever.
Next morning waking up to your sister's delighted screams is among the top worst wake up calls which I have become accustomed to happening every year on Christmas. Even though we have grown up into respectable adults, the tradition of opening the gifts placed under the Christmas tree will never change. Raising up completely, I realise that Jensen is cocooned in my blankets like previous night with my hands tightly wound around his slim waist. Getting out of the bed without waking him, I step into the bathroom to relieve myself. After a warm shower, I walk out wearing a worn-out tee-shirt with cargo shorts to notice the absence of Jensen's gift bags he purchased yesterday. Assuming he would have moved it somewhere else, I move towards the bed with the thought of waking him, but I see the bed is empty and already being cleanly made.
(Jensen's POV)
Sometime in the night, I feel Jared pull me closer to sleep curling by his side. The heat from his body seeps as warmth into my body leaving me with a sense of safety. It sends me with a heady feeling that nothing will be able to cross him and harm me until he is by my side. At around two a.m., I am stirred out of my sleep when Jared wakes up and heads down carrying all his shopping bags with the gifts mostly to place it under the Christmas tree. This reminds me of the sweet memories that I had of celebrating Christmas with my parents where every relative would be invited on 25th for a get together party at our place to feast for a day. Jared coming back to the room snaps me out of my memories into the present.
After a few minutes of Jared settling on the bed, when I'm sure that he has gone back to sleep, I slip out of the room with all the gifts I bought for Jared's family and head down. I'm surprised to see that everyone in the house have placed the gifts they have bought under the tree sometime in the night as I clearly remember the place to be empty when I walked by it to go towards Jared's room. Placing the gifts for my new family next to the arranged gifts, I slip back silently into the room and into Jared's arms.
