AN: Sorry I know this is shit, I wrote it really quick fuelled on prosecco and too much Christmas dinner! 🎄🎅🏻🎁☃️
Merry Christmas everyone xxx🎅🏻 It's Christmas Day in the McCann household and no surprise Van is awake before the sun's even started creeping over the horizon.
🎅🏻 The kids are still fast asleep and he's fidgeting around in bed, eager for everyone else to wake up. "You awake yet love?" He whispers into your ear. "Can't believe the kids are still asleep!"
🎅🏻 You resist swatting him away, opening one eye groggily to peer at the alarm clock. "Jesus Van, it's only 5.30am! No wonder they're still asleep!"
🎅🏻 Van makes a valiant effort to try and get back to sleep but he's tossing and turning and you know that before long you'll hear the pitter and patter of tiny feet...
🎅🏻 "Mummy! Daddy! Santa's been! He's actually been!" Your daughter Grace appears in the bedroom carrying her stocking full of gifts, wide-eyed and buzzing with excitement.
🎅🏻 The commotion wakes up baby Leo and Van fetches him so you can all go downstairs to open your gifts. You can barely see the living room floor for presents and Grace practically dives into the pile face first.
🎅🏻 You'd scolded Van for spoiling the kids so extravagantly but seeing their excited little faces and sparkling eyes you can't stay mad at him.
🎅🏻 Mind you, Leo is more interested in the wrapping paper and gift boxes than the actual contents...
🎅🏻 Apart from his star gift which is a miniature drum kit from Bob. You and Van exchange looks as Leo starts bashing the hell out of it with reckless enthusiasm and you just know it's going to drive you both up the wall by the end of the week. "Am gonna kill him!" Van mutters under his breath.
🎅🏻 Leo isn't the only one with a noisy toy though. Van's bought Grace her own little guitar and she's jumping up and down with excitement, strumming away a tuneless cacophony that makes you wince. "I'm gonna be just like you when I grow up Daddy! I'm gonna be famous too up on the stage!" She flicks her hair around and wiggles her tiny hips.
🎅🏻 "Well I can see you've already picked up your dad's guitar skills and stage theatrics!" You tease, and Van jabs you playfully in the ribs, tickling you until you're squealing. "Oi cheeky!"
🎅🏻 The kids aren't the only ones who've been spoilt. Van's bought you your favourite perfume, a beautiful necklace with your birthstone as a pendant, a rare vinyl you've had your eye on for ages and a voucher for you and your best friends to spend a luxurious spa weekend away in the new year.
🎅🏻 "You're the best wife and mum in the whole world and you do so much for us babe. Now it's your turn to relax and put ya feet up!"
🎅🏻 Van doesn't say anything but you can see his brow furrowing slightly as the pile of presents starts to dwindle and he's not come across one from you yet.
