It was the day before Christmas Eve and you had just finished wrapping Damian's presents, they were all pretty boring things that he had asked for you to get him so you had another gift for him.

It was the last day you would be seeing him before Christmas so you decided to exchange presents today. Damian had always been so kind and thoughtful towards you so you wanted to do something special for him as part of your gift, you had the whole day planned out and he was on his way to your house.

He arrived shortly after and you greeted him with a hug, you didn't normally like hugs but Damian was the only person that you enjoyed them with.

"Good morning, gorgeous," he said and he kissed you on the cheek.

"Good morning to you too, handsome," you replied.

Damian smiled at you and took his bag of Christmas presents into the living room and placed them under the tree.

"Don't bother getting comfy, we're going out now," you said as you put on your coat and wrapped yourself up in a scarf.

"Where are you taking me?" He asked with a suspicious look on his face.

"It's a surprise, just make sure you wrap up warm."

Damian put his coat, scarf and gloves on and you walked outside to face the cold December air, it was snowing but the ground was so damp that it didn't settle so you couldn't make snowmen, unfortunately.

You arrived at your destination about 20 minutes later, it was a huge pop-up ice rink in the park.

"Come on, I promise it will be fun," you smiled at Damian and squeezed his hand. He followed you towards the booth to get your ice skates on.

You found out the hard way that ice skating was much harder than you thought. You had only done it a few times before but you were much younger.

Of course, Damian could skate perfectly and you just shuffled along the edge of the rink holding on to the side walls.

Damian tried to help you by holding onto you while he effortlessly glided across the ice. You were starting to get the hang of it and felt you could do it on your own now.

"Don't worry, I've got this," you said as you made your way out of Damian's grip.

"You sure?"

"Yeah just watch me, soon enough I'll be a triple axle," Damian let you go and you managed to glide along for a full 3 seconds before falling face first into the ice, causing blood to rush down from your nose.

"(Y/N) are you alright?!" Damian knelt down beside you.

"I'm fine, it looks worse than it is." Damian picked you up and skated you to the first aid booth.

"My legs are fine, you didn't need to carry me here."

"We need medical assistance here!" He called.

"You're making a big deal out of nothing, it's just a cut."

"It could be broken," Damian sat you down and wiped away the blood with a tissue.

"Trust me, there would be a lot more screaming involved if it was broken." You laughed.

The medic came and wiped your nose with an antiseptic wipe and placed a plaster on the small cut.

"I told you, it's just a cut. I'm more pissed off about the fact that all my clothes are wet now from the ice."

Damian laughed, "I'm just glad you're ok. But I'm really cold and you need a change of clothes so let's go back to your house and I can make you some hot cocoa." He suggested.
