Last Chance

25 - Naughty or Nice?

I woke up the next morning with Chris's arms wrapped around me tightly. It had been a long time since I woke up in his arms and I smiled the feeling. I felt something move at the foot of the bed and peeked my eyes open and saw Bruno lying across the foot of the bed. Chris must have gotten up and let him in at some point in the middle of the night.

I rolled over and Chris was still fast asleep and he looked so peaceful in his sleep. I noticed the worry lines he used to have while we had broken up had disappeared. He looked so happy even in his sleep. I cuddled into him placing by head under his chin, he adjusted for me and I smiled as his grip tightened.

"Merry Christmas Aspen." Chris whispered and I smiled.

"Merry Christmas." I whispered my response. He didn't wake up though, I heard him slightly snore a few minutes later and I smiled.

I tried going back to sleep since there was no way Chris was letting me out of his grip. I just laid there though relishing in the fact that Chris was back in my bed, with me and he told me he loved me.

I looked up at him and gently kissed his chin and he grumbled as I then lifted up slightly and kissed his cheek.

"You trying to wake me Aspen?" Chris asked.

"Well I have to see if Santa came." I said in a cute voice. Chris opened one eye and looked at me smirking.

"Have you been a good girl this year Aspen?" Chris asked and I nodded with a huge smile.

"I have!" I said. He leaned down and passionately kissed me as I sighed when he moved to my neck.

"Bruno down." Chris said and he jumped off the bed.

"This is why you shouldn't have let him in." I said and Chris laughed. He pulled away from my neck and sighed. He looked at Bruno who was whimpering at the foot of the bed.

"Yeah I can't do anything with him and that face." Chris said and I nodded.

"Why don't I take him out and you make us hot chocolate." I said.

"The tradition we started..." Chris said and I nodded.

"Of course, hot chocolate, cookies and the holiday parades on tv." I said and he smiled.

"Sounds perfect." Chris said and we got out of bed. I got dressed in some leggings, a cable knit sweater and snow boots. When I went to grab my jacket I noticed it was under Chris's on the hook so I just grabbed his and put it on.

"Really?!" Chris asked walking out and seeing, I laughed.

"You know I look cute." I said zipping it up. He walked over to me.

"Adorable. Hurry back." He said and kissed me. I hooked Bruno up to his leash and we headed outside.

Bruno enjoyed our morning walks together. I enjoyed our morning walks together, it gave me time to think. Right now I had to think about Chris leaving soon. He was going to Atlanta to film, he was going to be gone a year. We had just crossed a major step in our relationship redo and now he was leaving.

We promised we would make this work and I knew we would. We just had to make it work. As I got back home the apartment smelled of hot chocolate, cinnamon rolls and a fire going in my fireplace.

"Hey." I said taking off the coat then wiping off Bruno's paws.

"I know we said cookies but I saw the can of cinnamon rolls in your fridge so I figured those would be better." Chris said and I nodded.

Once they were done we sat over by the tree and I handed Chris the few gifts I got for him. Some really cute but cheesy gifts. I even gave him a picture of us framed for him to take with him to Georgia.

He then handed me an envelope.

"Whats this?" I asked and he smiled.

"Just open it." Chris said and I opened it to see a plane ticket. "It's an open-ended ticket for a flight to Atlanta. I want you to come and see me whenever you can. I will work it around my schedule." Chris said and I smiled as I wrapped my arms around his neck and just held on to him. I crawled into his lap as I held on to him.

"We got this right? We can make this work and be okay?" I asked and he nodded. He placed a hand on my cheek.

"I already lost you once due to my stupidity Aspen, I'm not willing to have it happen again." Chris said and I smiled. We just held each other and just enjoyed being together even if we were on the floor by the Christmas tree.

After about an hour we got up and we both decided to take a shower together so we were just in the shower, Chris's arms wrapped around me from behind as he kissed my shoulder and I smiled.

"You know we said we wouldn't do anything if we took a shower together..." I sighed and he grunted against my shoulder.

You're too irresistible." Chris said. I then felt him move his hands and his finger tips trailed over the tattoo for my parents. "I saw these last night but I was a little preoccupied." Chris said and I laughed.

"Yeah so now you have seen all my ink." I said and he smiled.

"It looks good on you." Chris said as he worked around to the front of my body and started kissing down the front. He then placed one leg over his shoulder. He was instantly disappearing between my legs and I felt his tongue running up my slit and I gripped the top of the shower door for leverage.

"Chris...fuck!" I cried out and he hummed on me making me reach my other hand down and grip on to his hair.

As I felt his tongue swirl my clit and I fluttered my eyes closed. This man was going to be the death of me. I really forgot how good he was at all of this and all his moved her had.

I quickly felt myself working to my release and Chris sucked and licked harder and faster and I screamed out my release and practically almost fell over. Chris rinsed his face off in the shower and then came back up and smiled down at me.

"You think just because it's Christmas it's okay to be naughty?" I asked and Chris smiled.

"It's the one day Santa isn't watching." Chris said and we both laughed. I wrapped my arms around his neck.

"How soon do you want me to go to Atlanta?" I asked as we got out of the shower.

"Um...2 days after me." Chris chuckled and I shook my head.

"I'll give it some time I do have people contacting me about getting the gym up and running too." I said and Chris nodded.

"You figure out a time and you come. Tell me, don't tell me...I don't care. Just come." Chris asked and I nodded.

"I will be there, don't worry." I said and Chris nodded.
