It was cold outside, freezing cold, to the point if you threw water out it would freeze almost immediately.

But of course it would be this cold as it was winter, the Christmas season.

Christmas wasn't that far away, actually it was tomorrow to be exact.

This would be Lucian's first Christmas, he said he had been in the shadows of people who celebrated it but didn't have much of an opinion on it.

He wasn't against it as I thought he would, being a demon in all.

We had to go to my family's on Christmas Day so I thought of opening presents right at midnight.

Lucian had been stocking up on gifts, most of them under the tree was a variety of mine, combined with his.

*I haven't had a haul like this since I was 5!*

"Lucian." I looked up at him, he was smiling hard, "Are you ready to get this Christmas thing on?!"

"Yes, but are you sure all these gifts are mine?"

"Yes baby." He nods, "I wrote down every single thing you mentioned briefly in conversation like you said, and used my knowledge of you to figure out which ones to buy this year!"

I scoff, "That's um..."

"Too far?"

"Well... I just..." I trail off, "I hope you're not in debt or something." He shakes his head, relief on his face, "Oh... I thought you were mad at me..." he clears his throat, "I actually have a lot of money, so don't worry about that."

*He says that so casually.*

I scoff, blushing a bit, "Well! Let's get this Christmas thing on I guess..."

*I can just hear my friends screaming at me because I have a 'demonic sugar daddy.' Typical.*

We got to my gifts which were a ray of clothes, makeup and gift cards, I blush looking at him, I guess Lucian really knows what I want.

"I also got you this." He gives me a bag, "Lucian! How much stuff did you buy for me?!" He blushes, "Just open it, please?"

I look inside, it was that new Kirby game I was screaming my head off about, I gasp, "Lucian..." I scoff, "Lucian!"

He giggles, "I preordered it... and it just so happened to come out tomorrow, so I got it today." I squeal like a little girl, "You shouldn't have! Oh my goodness, do you know how expensive this is?"

"I know." He says, "I don't really care how much it is, I just want you to be happy."

I soften, what in god's green earth did I do to get such a marshmallow of a man, I kiss his cheek, "Thank you baby." He chuckles and gives me the cutest smile, "You're welcome..."

He opens his gifts which he was so surprised about getting even though he knew I would anyway.

They were mostly clothes, all in his favorite styles and tiny nicknacks he said he wanted including things that aligned with his many hobbies.

We get to the last box and the one I kept near me as I knew it would be the one.

"Here's the last one, I hope you like it." I smile and he blushes, opening the gift.

His eyes widened, "What...?"

"You bought me a switch?" I nod, "Yes! So we could play together, even when you're away."

I see his tail wag and he put on the brightest smile, "I love it..." I could tell he was getting teary eyed.

"There's also something else in there." I say and he digs deeper, pulling out a sweater I made for him by hand.

I remember we talked about my knitting and how I stopped doing it one day, Lucian encouraged me to get back into it as he knew I was good.

I had my hobbies that stuck with me, but I wasn't sure why I stopped knitting, it bought me comfort too.

He looks at me then the sweater, "You made this?" I nod, "Yep! It took me a bit but I still got it."

"You really made this... for me?"

"I'd do anything for you Lucian..." I blush, it was a little embarrassing saying that out loud but I didn't regret saying it, it was true and I would say it a million times if it meant I get to see his smile again and again.

"Tinashe..." he sniffles, wiping his eyes, I sit down next to him, "Thank you so much... you... you don't know how much it means to me that you care so much about me..."

I rub his back and he leans into me, "Of course... you're my little marshmallow..." he giggles, "And you're my little red velvet cookie crumb."

He boops my nose and I laugh.

"I can't wait to be with your family tomorrow." Lucian chuckles before taking off his shirt and putting the sweater on, "Especially wearing this, I can just hear your mother now."

"She's probably gonna call you son in law especially because you got me to knit again, none of my exes were able to do that." He smiles, "Well if she does I appreciate the nickname. I actually adore it."

I smiled, wrapping paper littered the living room, but I was in a daze, watching Lucian dance cutely in the mirror with his sweater on.
