Always Been You (Robin Gibb Fanfiction)

Chapter 37

- Christmas Day -

Y/N's POV

Today being Christmas does not feel like it is. Life has been so all over the place with all of the things we have done this year. We have done and overcome so many things this past year and grown so much as well. Well, today is Christmas, and I have some gifts to give out. 

"What time is it?" I ask but rubbing my eyes as I look at the wall 

"I think it is like 8 or something." Robin says but looking at me 

"Mmm, do you want to open presents first or make our phone calls to our parents?" I ask

"We can make the phone calls first and then get ready have some food and open gifts." Robin says 

"Hm, alright then. I think this is going to be good for us then." I say but standing up out of bed 

Robin stands up and follows me over to the phone.

I call up my folks first and wish my well wishes and Robin does the same.

"And now we can get dressed and then get our food served up." I say

We both get dressed and then head into the kitchen.

"Do you think you can make Christmas tree shaped pancakes?" Robin asks 

"I think I could totally do that if you would like me to do so." I say

"I would love for you to do so." Robin says 

"I think this is going to be fun." I say

Robin makes us some coffee and I make the pancakes.

"I hope my brothers do not come bursting in through those doors or else I am going to flip on them." Robin says 

"You should not do that come on it is Christmas after all. It is not that bad." I say

"I guess they could use my attention but I would not dare to do it today." Robin says but with a chuckle 

I finish the pancakes and serve them up on plates.

We eat our breakfast and then head on over to the living room.

"We have a good amount of gifts under the tree for one another." I say

"I think wrapping each thing singularly is the best thing to do when it comes to presents." Robin says 

"Yeah, I think that is why we kind of both do that. It kind of makes me think about if other people do the same thing as we do or not." I say

"I wonder what it is like for you when your brothers are not around all of the time. Do you think it is weird or has it become normal for you?" Robin asks 

"I think it has become normal for me not having the rest of my family around. I think it is weird but you know I have been like this for a few years." I say 

"And now you are older so it is kind of interesting to know how it is." Robin says 

"Yeah, I wonder sometimes how my brothers think. Also, I just don't know one day I do wanna move to another country and see how life might be. I think it would be cool to see even more new cultures." I say

"I think Italy or France could be a fun country for us to try and live in one of these days. I think learning the Italian or French culture would be interesting." Robin says 

"Maybe we should try and plan out the countries we would want to work on moving to. I do not know which one we would want to start with first but it would be good for us to decide." I say

"I think Italy could be cool to live in first and learn the Italian cultures. I know there is so many things about Italy people say but some are not fully true." Robin says 

"I know I have heard there is so many things that have been said about life in Italy. I think the cool one that is true is how they take time to take in the beauty of the day and there is no rushing from place to place." I say

"I think in Italy cars are not a huge thing. Are they?" Robin asks 

"I want to say to be honest - they use bikes a lot of the time which is nice to think about. Nobody cares to rush from one place to another. However, cars are in the everyday life but not too bad." I say

"I would kind of want to see how the life would be. I just don't know how well we might fit in with that kind of lifestyle." Robin replies 

"We will not know until we find out." I say

"I just realized we need to open our presents still." Robin says but with a chuckle

"Oh yes we got so deep in the conversation. I forgot we had not." I say

We open our gifts and smile at each other.

"Thank you my love for the beautiful gifts." Robin says but with a smile 

"Thank you too my darling." I say but with a smile 

"I think this is kind of nice to think we got each other things we both needed." Robin says but hugging me 

I return the hug and smile.

"What do we have planned for today besides going to see your brothers?" I ask

"I think that is all and plus they are the ones who are making dinner for everyone. It is going to be nice having their food." Robin says 

"That is true your brothers are good at cooking and we have the pies we made in the fridge to bring over." I say

"I am excited for the food we have and are going to be having." Robin says 

"It is going to be nice that is for sure." I say

We end up enjoying our Christmas for the rest of the day and having a wonderful day.
