Since The Day

Chapter 17

*Important question at end! *

*Year and 2ish weeks later. Aka Christmas 2014*

I rolled over toward Luke in bed and placed my arm around his warm bare torso. Luke's breathing slowly became faster and his snoring came to a stop.

"Mmm, morning baby," Luke's groggy voice mumbled as he pulled me further into his warmth. I gladly fell into his warmth.

I opened my eyes and looked up at Luke who was smiling down at me with his beautiful white smile and dark brown eyes. "Mornin' Luke. Merry Christmas," I mumbled with a smiled and leaned over to place a light kiss on his bare chest.

"Merry Christmas to you too," he whispered and slowly pulled away from my grip. "As much as I love relaxing in bed with you baby, I've got to go... I'll be right back." Luke quickly got out of bed and ran to the bathroom. I smiled at the view in front of me. Damn.

"You look good without clothes, babe," I called after him with a giggle. I could just picture him rolling his eyes at my remark.

Luke just yelled back a thank you and then slammed the bathroom door. I laid in our bed and enjoyed the warmness of the white sheets as I stared up at our white ceiling. We have too much white. When Luke came back in he instantly dove right into the warmness of our bed.

He quickly pulled me in and began kissing my collarbone. "Luke," I mumbled and started rubbing my hands up and down his abdomen. "God I love you," I whispered and got on top of him, straddling him.

"Baby, you are such a turn on," he grunted and licked between my boobs.

One thing led to another...

Once we were done we laid in each others sweaty arms; still slightly out of breath. "That was the most perfect Christmas morning I've ever had," I mumbled as I stared up at the ceiling.

"I know. I don't know how many more peaceful ones we'll have like this though," Luke mumbled as he turned to look at me with a large smile on his face.

"Oh what are you tryin' to tell me now, Luke," I asked as I turned my head toward him and raised an eyebrow in amusement.

"Well Darlin'," Luke mumbled and he scooted closer to me, placing his arm across my stomach. "I'm just sayin' we don't know what could happen in the next year, like we could have a baby," He trailed off and leaned in to place a kiss on my lips.

"Oh really now," I asked with sarcasm. I was giving him a seductive smile.

"I'm just sayin' baby. I ain't getting any younger, am I," Luke replied with a mischievous smile. "And we've talked about it, we both want kids."

"That's true, babe. I'm not either... How about we talk about that later," I asked and rolled out of bed to grab my shirt, underwear, bra and shorts from the ground.

"Fine baby," Luke huffed as he rolled out of bed and did the same.

Once the two of us had our cups full of coffee we walked into the living room where we had the enormous tree set up. There were about a dozen gifts resting now underneath it. Gifts for each other and our friends. Luke and I sat next to each other and picked up the first gifts we wanted to give each other.

I gave Luke the smallest gift first. He took the small 4x4 box wrapped with red and white paper in his hands and shook it lightly near his ear. He had a smile on his face.

"Ooh! Is this a car," he joked with his attractive laugh coming from his mouth. God. That white smile of his is perfect.

"Just open it already," I told him with a giggle as I got more and more anxious.
