Gerards POV
"Daddy daddy!" I heard as I got awoken by a familiar voice. It was of course Bandit. My 4 year old daughter
It was Christmas day here in LA, and every Christmas Bandit is always excited to get new things. I turned to my back and sat up.
I then seen my beautiful wife, Lindsey, sleeping next to me. I smiled as I kissed her head. "I love you" I whispered to her as I got out of bed and walked out of our room towards Bandit who was waiting for me in the hallway.
"Yes B?" I said, calling her by a nickname I gave her. "It's Christmas! It's Christmas! It's Christmas!" She said jumping up and down happily.
"I know! I know! I know!" I said jumping up and down too, which made her laugh. I loved hearing her laugh, It made me so so happy.
"You'll probably have to wait till mommy wakes up to open presents B." I said as I lifted her up and carried her downstairs
"But daddyyyyy-" Bandit whined as I put her on the couch. "No but's." I said as I walked over to the kitchen and started to make coffee.
I then caught Bandit getting off the couch and going towards the Christmas tree, trying to get a present.
"Bandit Lee Way!" I exclaimed but not too loud on count of Lindsey.
Bandit quickly ran back towards the couch and climbed back on. "I'm sorry Daddy." She said as she frowned. "I forgive you B. Just don't do it again ok?" I said looking at her with a serious face.
Bandit nodded as I sighed, going back to making my coffee. This time Bandit was actually being good and not touching the presents. Thank god.
As soon as my coffee finished making, I poured myself a cup and stirred the creamer I added in it.
I walked over to the couch and sat next to Bandit. I giggled as I seen Bandit sit on the couch with her legs spread out.
"Bandit baby..who learnt you to sit like that?" I asked as I chuckled.
"I seen the girls on TV do it daddy so I wanna do it!" Bandit said as she pointed at the TV which made me laugh even harder.
Lindsey walked downstairs sleepily as she walked over to the kitchen to pour herself some coffee. "Here let me get you some coffee..you go sit with Bandit." I said as I placed my coffee on the coffee table and stood up, walking towards Lindsey.
"You sure..?" She said still sleepy. "Of course baby." I said as I placed a small kiss on her lips. She softly smiled as she walked over towards the couch.
"Daddy can I open presents nowwwww?" Bandit asked as I poured Lindsey a cup of coffee.
Bandit was starting to annoy me with this 'Can I open presents now' but I was the same way as a kid so I shouldn't be talking.
I sighed as I walk over to Lindsey with her coffee and hand it to her. "Go ahead B." I said as I sat down gently next to Lindsey, grabbing my cup of coffee.
"Yay!" Bandit exclaimed as she hopped off the couch and went towards the Christmas tree, choosing what present to open first.
I smiled as I watched her.
She was so cute.
Bandit of course chose the biggest present and opened it quickly.
"WOW!" She exclaimed. It was a bicycle with training wheels on it.
"You like it Bandit?" Lindsey asked as she smiled. "I love it!" Bandit said as she looked at the bicycle box, in all smiles.
It was also her favourite colour so that's why she mostly liked it.
After opening all presents we decided to go play in the snow.
We had snowball fights, and built a snowman.
And yes Bandit and Lindsey buried me in the snow.
Then we had hot coco and sat near our fire place to get warm from all the snow fun we had that morning.
If my family is happy, I'm happy.
