His fingers glided smoothly on the black leather revolving chair. His eyes were blazing with satisfaction as he sank into it and breathed into the air of victory. Just then, the door to the office burst open.
"HOW DARE YOU CHRISTOPHER ?!" - Aiden sh...
It was Christmas the day after tomorrow. Isabel and Christopher had just placed the Christmas tree in the living room of Christopher's apartment — since Wilder mansion was under renovation as she had desired some changes in the house so they both had shifted there a week ago. Right now, she was stood a step back and was guiding him on the position of the tree in the corner.
“Perfect.” - she said with a shining smile. “Now let's decorate it!”
Christopher couldn't help but chuckle at her enthusiasm. Christmas used to excite him the same way until his father was alive. After that, he just lost interest in every festival of life.
They both set to decorate the tree which was a fun — and romance — filled affair because he couldn't help stealing kisses from her at every chance he get causing her to laugh heartily.
“And finally, the tree topper!” - she cried out happily, holding the star in one hand while looking at the top of the tree where the star was to be placed.
Christopher pursed his lips to hold back his grin. The tree was seven feet tall and she was 5"7. Now, he was six feet and could easily place the star by raising his arm high but where would be the fun of teasing her then ?
“Please, do the honors.” - he said sweetly, folding his arms.
She looked at the top then at her arm, an adorable frown appearing on her forehead, before looking at him. Glaring at the smile on his face.
“What ?” - he was innocent in both tone and expressions but his eyes were alight with mischief.
She bit the inside of her cheek. “Christopher Jose Watson! Help me in putting up this star right this instant!” - she thundered authoritatively.
Did he really think she would ask for his help ? He chuckled at last. She commanded him, knowing well that she undisputedly ruled his heart.
He walked a step closer, aiming to hoist her up by the waist but she shook her head. A sweet and playful smile on her face.
“You will be on your hands and knees, mister and I'll stand on your back.” - she declared smugly.
He gaped at her at first then smirked. So hands and knees it was ? Fine.
What was going on his mind his face said it all and she felt her cheeks heating up. But despite that, she stood her ground boldly.
With one last meaningful look, he went to his hands and knees, keeping his back straight to make a smooth surface for her to stand. She grinned and stood on him, her eyes shining as she nearly came face to face with the tree top.
“Oh this looks lovely!” - she gushed, admiring the star at the top. “Now let's watch it in the dim lights!”
She quickly hopped off him and ran to the switch board to turn off extra lights.
