***Your POV***

"Wait, your father's name is Alice?" Fenris asked.

"Yes, but you can't tell anyone." I ordered. "You wanna see the other two?" I ask.

He grinned and half nodded, half shrugged. I grinned right back. I opened the next case. "Woodstock, 1960s, White Fender Stratocaster. This baby served Jimi Hendrix well in that festival. This one was a gift to my mother. She gave it to me when I wanted to learn how to play." I explained.

He looked at the light wood chipping at the bottom end of the body. "It's the real thing..." He breathed.

"Now, are you ready for the best of the best?" I ask.

"You have a better one!?" He was still in shock from Lennon's.

"Cover your eyes, they'll melt." I ordered. He obeyed with a laugh.

I noddedd proudly and opened the final case, it was a gold trimmed case, made in Spain from the leather of a fighting bull.

I held it out and put the strap over his head. He held the guitar and I smiled. "Open them." He did and looked down.

"It's a custom Fen-...der...Oh my god..." He mumbled.

"This little number is signed by Mick Jagger, Kieth Richards, Eric Clapton, Brian May, Jimmy Page, David Gilmour, Jeff Beck, Pete Townsend, Mark Knopfler, Ray Davis, Liam Gallagher, Ronnie Wood, Tony Lommi, Angus and Malcom Young, Paul McCartney, Sting, Ritchie Blackmore, Bryan Adams...and...Def Leopard. It was a sixteenth birthday present from Paul." Fenris looked like he might faint. (that's actually who signed the guitar in the picture! I looked it up on pintrest!)

He made a noise between a gasp and a laugh. "Do you wanna play one? I have some sheet music?" I asked.

He frowned. "Uhm...I-...can't read very well, sheet music that is. I usually just work on swimming and martial arts." He looked embarrassed.

I grinned. "I'll teach you, if you want me to? You look like you would be a natural." I offered.

He chuckled wryly. "Perhaps another day, I have to finish unpacking...these are really amazing, Y/n. You're lucky to have them." He carefully handed me the precious Fender.

I put it in the case and Fenris said goodbye, going to his room. I just changed and laid down on my bed. My hair tamed in a messy bun.

The next morning I got right up and went to go check on Cole. He was still sleeping, his fever gone. I poked his button nose. "Cole...? Cole, wake up?" I asked in a sing song voice.

He groaned. I thought of something. "Come on! The sky's awake, so I'm awake! And I wanna have breakfast!" I whined.

Here it comes. "Go back to bed." He rolled over.

"Hey...Hey, Cole...? Do you wanna build a snowman?" I asked.

"How are we supposed to build a man out of ice crystals, that's impossible?" He whined.

I gasped. "You've never built a snowman?" I ask.

He shook his head and buried himself in his covers. I was heartbroken. "Can you wake everyone up in about two hours? I want to surprise everyone with food." I asked.

He groaned a yes. I ripped the covers off his head and kissed his temple. "Thanks, Bunny!" I called, running down the hall.

I was taking out a final tray from the oven, the soda bread, when Iron Bull came running out of the guys end of the house. Everyone soon followed.

Bull looked like he was about to cry. "You-...you m-made all of this?" He sniffled.

I nodded cautiously. "Yeah, I love cooking. I was gonna cook a hen if- Ah!" Bull ran over and scooped me up like a princess, he smashed a kiss on my forehead.

"Dorian! We're keeping her, right?! She can cook! Wait...We're Keeping Her!!!" He had to try a piece of bacon before saying the last part.

I blushed and buried my face in my hands. "Please put me down...the gravy will burn." I asked.

Everyone just laughed and dug in.
