The next day when I wake up I feel a little bit better, still out of energy and my body is weak.
I look to the side and see Lando still asleep, he is cuddling my chest and I smile a bit. I don't have much energy at all so I cuddle him back and actually fall asleep again, I was awake for 2 minutes and now I'm completely exhausted again. I sleep for around 2 hours more before I wake up by Lando singing in the shower.

I doesn't have the energy so I try to reach my phone on the nightstand, next to my phone I see a letter saying I love you and his hoodie folded and everything, also a small cup of water with pain killers next to it.

I drink the water and swallow my medication. Not long after lando comes out from the bathroom and sit down on the bed next to me, I crawl up in his lap and groan quietly but he hears it and pull me closer.

Lando looks at me with concern in his eyes, his fingers gently tracing circles on my back. "Just you being here is enough," I manage to whisper, my voice still weak. He gives me a soft smile, understanding the unspoken words.

As the day unfolds, Lando takes care of me with unwavering tenderness. He prepares a simple yet comforting meal, and we share a quiet moment together. Wrapped in blankets, we watch a favorite Christmas movie, the warmth of his presence making me forget the lingering weakness.

Later, he surprises me with a homemade advent calendar, a thoughtful creation filled with little notes and tiny treats. Each compartment holds a reminder of our shared moments and inside jokes. It's a heartwarming gesture that lifts my spirits, reminding me of the joy that comes with the holiday season.

In the evening, Lando helps me decorate the Christmas tree. With each ornament we place, he shares stories about his favorite holiday memories. The room fills with laughter and love, creating a magical atmosphere that transcends my physical fatigue.

As night falls, Lando insists on reading a Christmas story to me. Snuggled under the covers, I listen to his soothing voice, feeling the weariness give way to a sense of comfort. The room is adorned with soft Christmas lights, casting a gentle glow that adds to the enchantment of the moment.

Before we drift off to sleep, Lando leans in and whispers, "You're the best gift I could ever ask for." In that moment, surrounded by the warmth of love and the festive spirit, I realize that sometimes, the greatest presents come in the form of unwavering support and shared moments with the ones we cherish.

As sleep beckons again, I hold onto the gratitude for this day, a day filled with love, care, and the magic of Christmas. This day was absolutely amazing, even tho I was sick and exhausted Lando was able to make it better in every ways, my boy.
