It's Christmas morning in the Stan household and as always I'm wearing my Christmas pajamas all day my hair is up I have no make up and it's perfect "Your gonna be that mom that makes her husband and kids wear matching pajamas on Christmas aren't you" Seb says when he sees me "Of course I am. I love Christmas you know this about me and whoever chooses to marry me better accept me for all my Christmas craziness" I say "I'm sure he will and he'll put those pajamas on every year just to see you smile" he says "Its time for presents" my mom says "My favourite part apart from eating twice my body weight in food and chocolate" I say and we all gather in the living room.
My mom and Sebs love their gifts some of which I helped Seb pick out and so does his stepdad and it comes to mine and Seb's turn. I got Seb some never before seen signed James Dean portraits and other memorabilia as he is obsessed with James Dean "These are amazing and I'm sure they were expensive" he says "Every penny was worth it" I say and he hands me my gifts "I have something bigger but that has to wait until after" he says and I start opening and he's bought me two beautiful necklaces with deep meaning which I love and the other gifts are slightly confusing their a dog collar a lead and a dog bed "What have you always wanted every Christmas since we were kids" he says "You didn't" I say and he disappears for a moment and comes back with a box with a huge red ribbon on it and I open it and inside is the most adorable golden retriever puppy I've ever seen "I know what your thinking and I'll watch him until your back and your mom has said she'd watch him if were both ever away" he says "He's perfect" I say and give him all the cuddles.
I spend most of the day cuddling my new puppy and just eating and laughing with everyone. I'm staying with my mom for the couple more days I'm home and we're baking cookies "That boy knows you better than anyone else" she says "He does I mean he's known me longer than anyone apart from you and Georgeta" I say "He loves you and I don't just mean as a friend" she says "I'm seeing someone else and Seb left me once" I say "And I am sure he will never do that again because he loves you and he was scared of what that meant. Me and Georgeta have always believed you two were meant to be" she says "And if we were not and we lose each other again my heart my soul can't take that" I say "Just think about it" she says.
And I don't stop thinking about for the rest of my trip and even when I'm back in Rome "So one of your best friends is Sebastian Stan" Andrew says as we're out to dinner one night "Yeah we've been friends since we were two he's like the other half of my soul or something" I say "You guys ever cross the line" he says "Never my experience with guys kinda started off pretty rough" I say "Bad breakup" he says "I wish it was that uncomplicated. I was sexually abused by my sort of stepbrother for four years almost I got pregnant tried to end my life miscarried and I've battled anxiety and depression on and off ever since" I say "Wow" he says "Its not something I'm ashamed of but I choose to keep it private" I say "I'm sorry you went through all that" he says "Thanks Seb was a huge part of my recovery so I'll always have alot of love for him but thats all" I say and a little part of me knows that's a lie.
The next month flies by and I'm leaving to head back home again for good. Andrew is dropping me off at the airport "I'll see you in another two months" he says "Yeah see you then" I say and we kiss goodbye.
Seb Chris Lottie and me are all grabbing dinner together once I've had some time to readjust to life back in the US "I'm so happy this is a thing now" I say "So are we it's gonna suck when he leaves me for four months to film but I'm gonna keep busy and I have you to distract me" she says "Your not the only one being abandoned I've just gotten back and your leaving in two months" I say "We'll spend as much time together until then so much that you'll be sick of me" he says "Not sure thats possible" I say and we enjoy our dinner.
We head back to my apartment after "Wanna stay watch a movie?" I ask "Sure only if I can crash here after" he says "My guest room is all yours" I say and I go and change into some comfies and we settle in to watch a movie. We must fall asleep because I wake up and the movie is over and I'm cuddled into Seb's side and rather than wake up I lie back down and fall back asleep.
I wake up in my own bed and figured Seb must of woken up in the night and brought me in here and I go into the living room and he's making coffee "Thanks for putting me to bed" I say and he hands me a cup of coffee "No problem you were pretty dead to the wind" he says "Still jet lagged I guess" I say "I ordered us some breakfast because you have no groceries" he says "Yeah I haven't had time to go shopping yet" I say "We can go today if you want" he says "Sure" I say and my phone starts ringing "Its Andrew" I say and I answer it and go into my room to talk to him feeling weird talking to him in front of Seb.
