Love in the Skye (Ed Sheeran fanfic) [Part 2]

Chapter 15

Ed's POV:

I woke up and luckily my back wasn't hurting as much as it was yesterday. Skye lay there next to me with a worried look on her face. "What are you dreaming of?", I whispered, stroking her cheek. She stirred a little in her sleep so I dropped my hand, cuddling back up to her. "Morning", she whispered softly, still with her eyes squeezed shut. "I can't slam you up into any walls for a while", she mumbled quietly making my laugh boom around the flat, "true!". She laughed, pulling my closer. "I'm sorry, again". I shook my head, kissing her bare chest, "no it's not your fault". She shivered as my warm lips kissed her left breast, but the huge grin on her face never once disappeared. "I want to do something with you today, it's 9 days till christmas! This is the un-christmassy christmas I've ever had!". She laughed, "like what?". I smiled, "well, first we have a shower, get dressed, go out to Homebase and buy some decorations, come home, decorate the flat and then go for my soundcheck. How's that?". She grinned, rolling out of bed. "Sounds perfect!", she laughed, running to the bathroom. I smirked, jumping out of bed and quickly following her in.

She'd already climbed in the shower so I joined her in there. "Let me do your back", she said softly. I nodded, letting her softly clean it. I winced a little at first but I trusted Skye with my life, she couldn't really ever hurt me, not intensionally anyway. After we had both thoroughly washed, we climbed out, got dry and slipped some clothes on. We both pulled on our christmas jumpers, getting in the festive spirit. I took Skye's hand and we walked out of the flat. Homebase wasn't far at all, about a 3 minutes walk.

We got there, in just over 5 minutes, as we were walking pretty slow. I grabbed a trolley and Skye sat down in it. "You're not allowed to do that", I smirked, she just shrugged. "Take me to the christmas isle!". I laughed, pushing the trolley, swerving in and out of people as I ran down the isle. "Here you go your majesty", I laughed, helping her out. She smirked, giving me a quick peck on the cheek before picking out a few lights. "These would go nice over the windows! Oh and we need a wreath for the door! What about some tinsel! Awww.. Ed this snowman sings and dances". I rolled my eyes as she got excited over every decoration there was. "Just pick some Skye or we'll be decorating even after christmas!". She laughed, choosing some blue and white lights, some green and red tinsel and a pretty wreath for the front door - much to her disgust, I made her part with the dancing snowman. I paid for it all along with two Santa hats that we wore on the way home.

We reached the flat and she hung the wreath up, "Awww Ed! It looks pretty!". I laughed, letting her in the door. She flicked through my CD's as I emptied the decoration bag. "Let it Snow" came on and Skye grinned at me. We put the tinsel up all over the flat and then I literally hung out the window to hang the silly flashing lights Skye wanted. I wasn't really fussed, but she wanted them. "All I want for Christmas is you", started playing as I just finished hanging them up. I grabbed Skye's waist, swaying to the song, singing along. She laughed, "Ed I don't dance!". I laughed back, "me either!". We danced to the song and two or three more together before flopping down on the sofa, exhausted. "I can't wait to spend christmas with you Skye", I grinned. She climbed onto my lap, smiling. "Me either, it'll be the best christmas you've ever had", she smirked, making all sorts of things pop into my head.. I had a feeling this really was going to be my best christmas ever..
