The tickle monster

Chapter 20- Chirstmas time

It was now Christmas Eve. Tomorrow was Christmas. And the time was 10:54pm. All the kids are getting ready to wake up there parents. Lily is preparing for that too. When the clock strikes midnight, she'll pounce on Ian like a panther. Even if she gets tickled, she'll still pounce. She'll take the risk.

Ian on the other hand wasn't ready at all. He was looking everywhere for Lily's present and he still couldn't find it. Lucy was there with him too. He had about an hour before Christmas and everything else was sold out. "Lucy there's gotta be another place." Ian said out of fear. Lucy scrolled through different toy stores near them and she came across "Toys for all". "What about this one?" Lucy asked as Ian looked at it. "When does it close?"

"At midnight."

——————

The two of them ran straight to the store. When they got there, the clock read: 11:05pm. Ian was running out of time.

Ian and Lucy rushed in and looked all around the store. Ian eyed all of the girl stuff he could find but none of them fit right for Lily. Lucy offered her a Wonder Woman shirt but Ian declined saying that it was too big for her. The two of them heard some commotion from the other isle but ignored it.

That's when Lucy noticed a pink stuff elephant that was so big it was almost Lily's size. "What about this?" She said as Ian looked at the elephant. "How much?"

"$12.99."

"Let's get it." The two of them carried the giant stuffed animal and were about to pay when someone yelled, "That's mine! I saw it first!" The person began to run towards them when Lucy punched him squared in the face. Ian was shocked by this. "Goddamn." He said as Lucy cracked her knuckles. "I took karate when I was in high school." Lucy smirked as they finally payed for there elephant.

When they made it back home, it was 11:32pm. "You better get some sleep. Lily will wake you up in about 28 minutes." Lucy said as Ian nodded in agreement. Once Lucy left his apartment, he took off his clothes and put on some pjs and plumped on the bed.

12:00am

Lily heard the clock chime from the window. It was still dark but she didn't mind. Because today was Christmas day. She heard some kids yelling to there parents about Christmas and how excited they were to get presents. They're parents laughed and went downstairs so they could open them. Lily couldn't wait to do that.

Lily rushed over to Ian room and sprinted to his bed where she jumped and right on top of him. This time, Ian expected this so he only moaned in annoyance. "It's Christmas! It's Christmas!" Lily cried with glee as Ian smiled under his breath. "So it is." He said through the pillow as Lily grabbed his arm to pull it out of bed. "Come on! I wanna see what Santa got me!"

"Wait a bit."

"No way! Get up you lazy man!" Ian chuckled at her insult and used his arm to scoop up the giggling girl. "You were naughty this year Lily." He said as he covered her eyes. This made Lily giggle more. "Naughty girls don't get presents." Ian said as he blew a raspberry in Lily's neck. "AHAHAHAHAHAHA IAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAN THAT TIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHICKLES!"

"What did I tell you about waking me up?"

"ITS HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA CHRISTMAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAS!" Sense Lily's eyes were covered she couldn't see anything he was doing. Ian however was enjoying his position and scribbled his fingers all over her belly. Lily giggled more. "PLEASE HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LEMMEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE OPEN MYHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHI PREHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHESENT! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Ian chuckled and raised his hand up to Lily's belly like a claw hand. "In a moment." He said as he quickly brought his hand down on her belly. "Goochie goochie goo." He teased swiftly as Lily laughed helplessly.

Ian did this until 12:10am. Lily started to breath normally but her eyes were still covered. "Can you uncover my eyes now?" She asked as Ian smiled and did just that. "Now can we-"

"Yes we can." Lily zoomed to the living room and squealed loudly. Ian came into the living room to find Lily hugging the elephant tightly. "She's so cute! I love her!" She yelled and screamed with happiness.

This caused there dog Scarlett to wake up as well and  barked happily at the happy girl. Ian smiled wider than he did on any day. Nothing was gone make this even better. "Oh I almost forgot." Lily said as she ran into to her room to grab something.

When she returned, she handed Ian a drawing. It was of her and him smiling at the sun rise. It was the most adorable thing Ian has ever seen. "Did...did you draw this?" He asked as Lily nodded with a blush. "I also learned that Christmas is about giving as well. So I wanted to give this to you." Lily smiled. Ian could've sworn he almost cried.

"C'mere." Ian replied as he picked her up and planted a kiss on her cheek. "Do you know how I love you?" Ian asked as Lily shook her head. "This much." Ian blew a raspberry right on Lily's belly button. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

When he stopped, Ian looked at her and she looked at him. "You are so precious to me. Nothing will happen to you. Not as long as I'm still breathing." Ian said as Lily smiled and hugged him. Ian hugged back.

They both pulled apart when they heard a squeaky noise. They turned around to see Scarlett hold a dog toy. It was a pig. Scarlett squeezed her mouth as the pig made its squeaky sound again. Ian chuckled. "You didn't think I'd forget about you now did ya?" Scarlett barked happily at her new present while Lily laughed and went to the dog. "Oh let's play fetch girl!" Lily said as the dog jumped up and down and placed the pig in her hand. "You'll have to do that later. It's still dark out."

"Aw!" Lily whined as the dog used her puppy dog whiny eyes. In rolled his eyes. "You can come outside when the sun comes out."
