Christmas Break, 2012.
I fly to Seattle during Christmas break because most of my family lives there.
For the 2 weeks we have off I spend all of it in Seattle. The night before I flew out that break Sterling brought pizza over.

*Knocking*
I open the door to the delight of Sterling with pizza and one of his hoodies. We walk to my bedroom. I turn on my tv with Netflix and jump into bed. We eat pizza while a movie starts.
"I'm glad we could do this before I leave."
"Me too."
He kisses me.
" What am I going to do without these kisses for two weeks?"
" I don't know, what are you going to do?"
He kisses me again.
"Kiss you as much as I can before you leave"
We kiss some more.
After about two movies and millions of kisses I fall asleep curled up with Sterling.

Christmas eve is upon us. Last minute shopping is almost tradition with my family. We all separate to different stores in the mall, picking up last minute gifts.
The rest of the evening is spent wrapping presents for each family member. Just when I think I'm finished wrapping I glance at the Michael Kors bag across the room. Although I won't see Sterling during Christmas I still got him a present. I carefully grab the box containing a very expensive watch out of the bag. Taking my time I wrap the watch and label it; To: Sterling♡ Love: Your Honey Bear.
I stayed up so late wrapping that I almost overslept, but my phone buzzing woke me. It's Sterling calling.
"Merry Christmas!"
"Merry Christmas Honey Bear!"
"What are you doing awake?"
"I had to be the first to wish you a Merry Christmas."
*Doorbell*
"Who could be here this early on Christmas."
" I don't know but you should probably answer the door."
"I am, I am."
I open the door. My phone drops from my hand.
"Sterling!"
"Surprise!"
I run up and jump into his arms. We kiss.
"What are you doing here!?"
"It wouldn't be Christmas without my Honey Bear."
I kiss him. He's literally so sweet.
I lead him back to the room I'm staying in. He puts his stuff in the corner. Then hands me a small wrapped box. After a little search I hand him his gift. We open at the same time.
"Honey you didn't!"
"Do you like it?"
" I've wanted this watch forever. Thank you!"
"Diamonds! Sterling these earrings are beautiful. Thank you. "
"Just like you, I'm glad you like them."
~~~~
"Five!"
"Four!"
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One!"
Sterling and I kiss.
"Happy New Year!"

Christmas was the start of many great holidays with Sterling. I still have that set of earrings. They sit in my jewelry box, it feels wrong to wear them. He still has the watch. Last time I saw him he was wearing it actually. I'm glad he liked it enough to continuously wear it. Oh the memories...
