Y/N's POV

Today was Christmas Eve and I was excited for tomorrow. We would be hosting the holiday here which meant we would be able to use the dining room we designed all nicely. I was preparing everything by getting all of the nice cups and dishes washed.

"I think you are becoming a little too over the top my love," Alan said as he kissed my head from behind.

"What do you mean?" I asked as I looked at him.

"I don't know you are just like washing all of the nice dishes," he said with a bit of a chuckle.

"Well I did want to make sure tomorrow is going to be good. It is our first time having the holiday here so everything has got to be perfect," I said.

"And if not everything is perfect then it is not going to be a bad thing," he said.

"Well I do want to have everything perfect and if it is not then I am going to be freaking out," I said.

"My love this is not something you need to freak out about. It is going to be us and the boys nothing is going to go wrong I promise," he said as he smiled at me.

"I know but this is going to be nice hosting. I am trying to make sure everything prepped when it comes to the food is it?" I asked.

"You did everything my love and now is your time to take a second and come sit down with me. The dishes will dry as we watch a movie," he said.

"Alright," I said.

He took my hand and led me into the living room. We got settled on the couch and had two cookies and some milk with us.

"When did you bring those things?" I asked.

"When you were not looking and if you want we can put milk and cookies out," he said with a bit of a chuckle.

"I think I am okay with not doing that," I said with a chuckle.

"Alright. I thought it would be funny because if one of the boys came by and wanted some they would see them and boom it would be like magic," he said with a chuckle.

"Were you planning on doing something?" I asked with a chuckle.

"Well of course. I think it is nice to think about having someone do something for you and make it sort of special," he said.

"What was Derek or one of the boys going to come in here with boots on and step in flour and make it something like that?" I asked.

"I am a little freaked out but no.. why would you say that?' he asked.

"I don't know I thought it would of been something you might have thought of," I said with bit of a chuckle.

"Did you think it would be weird if that was what I had thought about?" he asked.

"Of course not. I think it is cute if you think about different things," I said.

"Well I think we should watch the movie now," he said as he wrapped us in a blanket.

He had the tv on a movie and we enjoyed the movie for a bit of time until it ended.

By this time it was much later and we decided to make some tea to bring with us to the bedroom. We made our tea and headed into the bedroom.

"I am happy we showered earlier because I am kind of tired," Alan said as he yawned.

"Me too," I said as I yawned right after him.

We unmade the bed and made it all comfortable.

"I think I should braid my hair before we get ready to head to sleep," I said as I sat at the end of the bed.

Alan got all comfortable in the bed. We also had put our teas on our bedside tables.

"Mmm do not take too long," he said.

"I won't," I said as I proceeded to braid my hair.

I soon finished braiding my hair and Alan pulled me into his arms.

"I miss holding you like this the times I am away from you," Alan said.

"I know. I miss you when you go off too but that is just apart of life my love," I said.

"But maybe you could go with me?" he asked.

"Baby we are always having this conversation and I do not think anything is going to change from one time to the next," I said.

"Well then. Maybe one of these days it is going to be different," he said.

"Maybe but it is not going to be soon until I finish this degree. It is kind of kicking my butt," I said.

"Then how come you are going to school if it is kicking your butt?" he asked.

"Well because of the idea I like to be smart and get degrees in things. But the main reason is maybe with this one I am going to be able to hang out with you if you are to go on another tour," I said.

"Well there is going to be more tours and I think it is going to be nice to have those experiences in life," he said.

"It is going to be interesting to see all of those amazing places," I said.

"There is something about seeing the world that is just such an amazing thing I think everyone should be able to see," he said.

"The way you talk about these things makes me want to go and see the world with you. If money was no issue I would say screw everything and just go with you," I said.

"I know but money is one of those things we need to be able to do these kinds of things," he said.

"It is not like we are just rich would be nice but it is not possible," I said with a bit of a chuckle.

"We are some amazing people though. Aren't we?" he asked.

"Oh of course we are amazing people," I said as I yawned again.

"I think you should go to sleep my love," he said.

"Maybe," I said as I pecked his lips and closed my eyes.

"Good night my love," he said.

"Good night my baby," I said.

Soon we both went into dreamland.
