Today was December 27th, two days after Christmas which also meant it was my birthday. I was turning 25 today which was pretty crazy to me. I'm halfway through my twenties and I was not happy about getting old.
I felt Christian place a kiss on my cheek as my eyes fluttered open and I turned my body to face him. "Good morning." I smiled and said in my sleepy voice.
"Good morning, birthday girl." He smiled back at me and brought me closer to his body.
I noticed that he was already dressed so I figured he had woken up a while ago. "How long have you been awake?" I asked him.
"I got up and got ready an hour ago." He told me as he stood up and I sat up in the bed. "I had to go to the store real quick."
"Why did you have to go to the store?" I asked him. Christian bent down and picked something up from the ground.
He had a bouquet of roses in his hands and I smiled. "These are for you, sunshine." He said, sitting back down on the bed and handing the bouquet to me.
"These are beautiful, baby." I said as I smelled the flowers. They smelled amazing and I loved that they were roses because that was my favorite flower.

"You deserve that and much more, sunshine." Christian said and placed a passionate kiss on my lips. I swear I am so in love with this man.
"Thank you, baby. I love you." I said and he smiled at me.
"I love you too." He said and then got up from the bed. "Come on, get up and get ready for your special day."
I took the sheets off of me and stood up from the bed, still holding on to my flowers. "Can you get a vase for these while I go and get ready?" I asked Christian and he nodded.
"Of course." He said, taking the flowers from me and leaving the room.
I went over to my suitcase and pulled out an outfit for me to wear before heading to the bathroom to get ready for the day.

At the moment, I was getting ready for a birthday dinner that Christian wanted to take me on with the whole family. I was so excited because this is the first time I've actually celebrated my birthday with other people instead of just my brother.
I had already taken a shower and I was sitting on the ground in the room Christian and I were staying in, in my robe because I had yet to choose an outfit for dinner.
As I was doing my hair, Christian walked into the room with a big box in his hands.
"What's that?" I asked him.
Christian smiled at me and placed the box in front of me on the ground. "It's for you. Open it."
I smiled back at him and opened the box that revealed a really pretty, red dress.
