This was it. Your first Christmas at the Sanctum. You were excited since you had Strange help you decorate a week before Christmas eve, which, in Prue's opinion, is "too late" for Christmas decor.
The plan was to have a lovely Christmas eve dinner at the Sanctum, then head to Starks at Christmas day for gift exchanging.
"Goodmorning, handsome" You turn to kiss Stephen on the cheek as he stirs in his sleep "Morning" He snuggles closer to you as the surrounding temperature began to drop "Wanna do some Christmas shopping?" You hear him grumble as he nuzzles closer
"Ok, I don't think you can get any closer than you already are. We need to get up Stephen"
You try to push him away to reach for your phone and you see the time "It's seven, we should get ready" You turn back to the sleeping man in front of you "You know, I can just get up and leave you here" You waited for him to reply.
Minutes pass by and you decide to head to the bathroom and get ready, doing this leads to a loud grumble from Stephen and you chuckle.
"Stephen, get up or I'm leaving you to go to the mall"
You stare at his sleeping figure "Alright, I guess I won't buy you a present then" You grab your purse and head to the door but you begin to hear shuffling
"Ok, let's go"
Stephen appears next to you and wraps his arm around your shoulder before leading you out the Sanctum.

"We need to buy food for Christmas Eve dinner and gifts for everyone for Christmas Day"
You bring out a list of things "When did you even make that?" Stephen furrowed his brows
"Well Stephanie my Dear, I made this while I was at work" You kiss his cheek before leading him to the grocery section of the mall.
"We're making mashed potatoes, carbonara, roasted chicken and gravy" You begin to pick out herbs and spices, placing them in the cart that Stephen stood by "Why not turkey instead of chicken?" He pondered "Chicken is easier to cook than turkey" Shrugging then continuing your task "Okay, let's get the other food stuff before getting the gifts"
~~~
When the groceries were dealt with, the gifts were next. You knew exactly what to give everyone. Everyone except Stephen.
You didn't want to buy him something that everyone would, you wanted to be unique. Original isn't it? So as you shopped, you thought of anything and everything you can give to the Sorcerer Supreme.
"Honey, I might have to go off for a bit, we can meet at the food court after an hour ok?" Stephen checks his watch and you nod, he kisses you on the forehead and in return, you kiss him on the cheek
This is great timing! You thought. Paying for the items you bought and leaving to search for the perfect gift.
~~~
The shopping bags you carried caught the attention of others, not only that, you were dragging a shopping cart behind you with more bags in it. You arrive at the food court and Stephen finds you, helping you with what you carried.
"Don't you think this is a little too much?" He asks, leading you to a table "Ten bucks says that Tony got a lot more than this" You challenge and he rolls his eyes
"What? Okay fine, it is a lot but atleast I do my own shopping" You boast and he smiles "You are one handsome man" You move your hand onto his "And I'm a Goddess. Wow, how did you even get me" You wipe a fake tear away
"Maybe cupid had other plans" He kisses your hand
"It's weird seeing you both act like this" You turn and see Prue sitting nearby "Prue? What are you doing here?"
