Damian blinked his eyes open to look up at an unfamiliar room. A quick glance around and he was reminded that he was in a hotel. With a sigh, he glanced at the time on his phone.

'4AM. Stupid patrols.'

Damian looked down at his chest to see Marinette curled up against him. Damian was quick to force his body to relax; he didn't want to wake her up. It was Christmas and they had flown back to Paris to visit her family.

He already knew the plan. They would go over during lunch time. He knew how excited she was to spend time with them and drink her Maman's hot chocolate. She had told him about spending time to play video games with her Papa and baking a Buche de Noel for dessert. She told him that Sabine always made dishes from Shanghai every year for dinner. This time, Marinette had wanted to include him in everything they did.

"Angel, you are aware that I am not well rehearsed in a kitchen." he explained, previously.

Marinette smiled, "It's not about the food. It's about being with your family. I know you're giving up spending time with yours to be with mine, but they're gonna be your family, too."

Damian lifted her hand and kissed the ring he had placed on her finger, earlier that month.

"You are correct, Habibiti." he smiled.

Damian glanced out the window and saw snow gently drift to the ground. He would have to make sure she bundled up, before they left.

"Dami?" Marinette questioned, blinking awake.

"It's still early, Angel." he answered, "Let's get some more rest before we head to your parents."

Mari nodded, sleepily, and curled back into her fiancee's arms.

Damian smiled, "Merry Christmas, Angel."
