"So do I get to know who this mystery man is? You seem very happy" my mom asks sitting across from me at lunch. "You'll know before Christmas" I answer. "That's in a week" she says. I nod "I know" I reply.

She nods slowly "did you know Leon's got a new girlfriend? Your dad told me" she asks. I nod taking a sip of my coffee "I have met her" I lie. She gasps "what is she like?" She asks.

Oh God. Time to think of something. Before I can say anything my phone starts ringing. Leon. "Hey" I answer putting it on speakerphone. "Hey baby you done lunch?" He asks. My mom looks at me with a smirk but doesn't say anything.

I cover my face for a few seconds then compose myself "still happening uh you're on speakerphone" I tell him. "Shit" he replies. "Pardon my language sorry for swearing mrs. Woodcroft" he adds.

My mom smiles "so you are her mystery man" she says. "I am" he says. "This isn't how I wanted to tell you" I frown. "Its my fault I'm sorry babe" leon apologizes. "No it's ok" I tell him. "Crap I've gotta go get ready for practice, I love you" he says. I smile "i love you too" i reply before we hang up.

"you've said the L word" she points out. "We said it before we were even offical" I confess. "How long has it been?" She asks. "Just over a month, the night he got into a fight with auston actually" I answer.

She gasps "really? What happened?" She asks. "We were at the after party and I was unknowingly dancing with one of his newer teammates and he saw, walked away angry and we got into a small fight and then he told me how he felt about me" I explain.

After telling her about our relationship so far and her gushing about it then promising to let us tell my dad we move onto the plans for Christmas.

Leon's parents are coming and staying at his place so we're doing christmas eve with just his parents then christmas day with everyone. Boxing day they're leaving in the morning then leon and I are spending it with his teammates.

"I'm glad you've found someone that makes you happy" she says hugging me. "Me too, I mean I was happy with auston but I'm truly happy with leon he's actually perfect" I reply.

Once we're done eating and catching up I go back home just in time for leon to get back from practice. "I missed your face" he whispers cupping the sides.

My face heats up and I smile "I missed yours" I whisper back. He leans down connecting our lips and I smile against his lips kissing back. "As cute as you two are can I watch this without you kissing over there?" Grace asks.

Leon chuckles "we could be doing worse" he replies with a smirk. "Gross" she says then goes back to watching the rest of the episode of friends.

When it comes to an end she turns the TV off and stands up. "I'm going over to Stuart's, he's making me dinner before the game" she says going over to her room. "That's cute, have fun" I tell her.

A second later I'm lifted up and leon carries me over to my room, going straight through to the bathroom. "I made a dinner reservation for just the two of us" he says putting me on the counter.

"Really?" I ask. He nods with a smile "yeah, and after the game do you wanna come back to mine? We're home for awhile" he asks. "Yesss I miss my son too" I answer.
