Chapter 26

Luke's POV

"Shh, don't wake them up." I heard. I opened my eyes and saw a flash. "Mum?" I asked, confused I saw. "Sorry honey, you guys looked so cute, I just had to take a picture." She said. "What time is it?" I asked. She checks her phone,"7:26." I carefully sit up without waking Ash and I cover him with a blanket. "Mum, this is his first Christmas with like a family so I want to make it special, but I need a Christmas gift for him, can you help me?" I asked her.

"Well if it's his first official Christmas we can always do what we would always do, and for the gift, what do you think he would like?" She asked. "That's the problem, I don't know what he likes." I say. "Well how about you guys go to the mall and you keep an eye out on what he looks at, okay." She said. "Okay." I nod and she leaves.

I look at Ash, and smile.

How did I get so lucky?

All those times I fucked up, he still took me back.

"Luke?" I looked up and saw Jack. "Yeah." "I can tell you really love him." He says. "Yeah I do he means a lot to me." I say. "By the way you look at him, you look at him like he's your world." He says. I smile. "Don't fuck it up again." He says sternly and leaves. Ash flips to his other side almost falling off the bed but he woke up before he could. "How long were you up?" He asked. "Not long." I shrug. "Do you wanna go to the mall today?" I asked. "Sure why not." He smiles. "I'm going to take a shower." He says. "Me too."

After I got out of the shower I went to my room to do my hair. Half way doing it Ash came in. "Hi." He says. "Hey." He comes behind me and messes up my hair leaving it all over the place. "Ash!" I squeal. "What it was too tempting." He laughs. "But I kinda like it." I say. I fix it a little to my liking. When I walk out I see Ash looking at my pictures. I snake my arms around his little waist and I see him smile. I rest my head on his shoulder. "I love your family, you always seem so happy." He says.

"Thanks." I kiss his cheek. "Let's go." I say grabbing his hand and taking him downstairs. We went in the car and drove to the mall.

When we finally got there we walked in and I laced our hands together. "Ooh I like that it smells good." He says. "You said that to every candle you smelt. "Well they all smell good I can't help it." He shrugs. "Let's go look around some more." I say. "That's cool." "Wow." "That's nice." That's all I heard from him. He's not making this easier to pick a gift for him. "Ash, you like everything." I say. "Well I'm not picky, I grew up with not much so I learned to love everything." He says. Maybe this won't be so hard.

"Here listen to this." I say giving Ash a pair of headphones. "I like this song what is it called?" He asked. "American Idiot by Green Day." I say. "I like it." He smiles and puts the headphones down. "What about this." I say. "I want this." He says. It was a little board where you can put pictures and stuff. "Why?" I asked. "Because so I can take a picture of you and I or just memories of us, so I can look back and look on all the fun we had." He smiled.
"Well I suppose if you get this you have to get a camera." I say.

Ashton's POV

After we came back from the mall buying cookie dough. I knocked on Liz's door. I came in. "Oh hi Ashton, how are you?" She greeted. "Good, I have this idea on what to get Luke but I'm not sure if he'll like it?" I asked. "What is it?" She asked. "I want to get him a guitar." I say. "Ash, that's a wonderful idea it's a good thing to because he's been bugging me to get him a new one." She laughs. "Do you know a specific guitar or no." I said. "No I don't think it matters to him." She chuckles. "Do you need help on the money?" She asked.

"No I think I got this." I smile. "Okay glad I can help." She smiles. "Thanks again Liz." I give her a hug and leave. "Oh hey Ash, what were you doing in my mums room?" He asked. "Discussing your Christmas present." I smile. "You don't have to get me a Christmas present." He says. "I can and I will, end of discussion." I say and pulling him in my room. "What does your family usually do on Christmas?" I asked.

"On Christmas Eve we bake cookies and leave them on a plate for Santa."

(Don't care if you believe in Santa or don't, just go along with the story)

"Then we hang up Christmas lights on the house, then we all watch Christmas programs with the family and drink hot cocoa." He says. "It sounds like fun." I say. "It is." He says. "Do you wanna go swimming again?" He asked. "Sure why not." I say.

We got in the back and Luke jumped in again. I made my way to the steps of the shallow end. "Ashton come on!" He said. "I didn't expect it to be this cold." I say. "Well it is winter." He shrugs. "True." I say. He swims to me. "Luke I hope you're not doing what I think you're doing." I say. "What I can't give my lovely boyfriend a hug?" He said, with his arms open. "Well you can, just not now." I say. He comes to me and gives me a wet, sloppy hug. I groan. "Luke!" I squeal. "What? You were going to get wet anyway." He says.

"I know it's just that my upper half wasn't wet, now it is and it's cold." I say. "Sorry." He laughs. "Do you have to want to jump in with me?" He asked I nodded. We held hands and I jumped in and Luke didn't like last time. "Hey!" I yell. "Now we are even." He smirks. I roll my eyes and get out of the pool and dry myself and walk inside. "Hey, you left me." Luke pouts. I just laugh. I look at him and run upstairs and I see him chasing after me. I went to my room and Luke pinned me on the bed.

He kissed my lips, and I giggled. But it soon turned into a make out session. Then there was a knock at the door. We pulled apart and the door opened and it was Jack. "Woah." He smirked. "What do you want?" I asked. "Mum said dinners ready." He said and left.

Luke and I were in bed just watching TV but I was falling asleep but soon enough sleep washed over me. Last the I heard was," Goodnight princess I love you."
