*Emery's POV*

"You sure he'll like it?"

"Yes, I'm sure; it's the perfect Christmas present for Roman. Besides, you bought it a week ago and its Christmas Eve, it's too late to return it and get a new present." Taylor said, comforting me. We were wrapping Drake's present, it was a little late but Taylor spent like a week looking for a present for him, and it took forever for her to find something she even remotely liked to get him, this girl took shopping seriously, too seriously.

"Well, since were done, I'm gonna go up to bed," I said.

"Night," Taylor said, but when I was halfway to the stairs, there was a knock at the door. I looked at Taylor and we shared a look of confusion. It was 9 o'clock at night, who could be here? I walked over to the door and opened it to see Roman and Drake standing there.

"Hey Emery," Roman said as I opened the door.

"Roman!" I yelled, running at him and giving him a big hug. I don't know why I was so happy to see him. I guess it was the cheer of the fact it was Christmas Eve. I could hear Drake walking into the house to see Taylor. "What are you doing here?" I asked, letting him go.

"We thought we would surprise you and spend Christmas Eve with you guys."

"Seriously?"

"Yeah,"

"I'm so happy to see you Roman." I said but before he could respond I was kissing him. This kiss lasted for minutes.

"Come on, lets go to bed, I want to spend tonight with you and I want to wake up on Christmas with you." He said and we walked upstairs and laid down together.

"I like this." I said after a while. "Just laying here, cuddling with you. Especially on Christmas Eve,"

"Me too,"

"I dreamed about this,"

"Really?"

"Yeah, I dreamed about spending Christmas', birthdays', and other special occasions together, forever." I said and I was getting tired, but I didn't want to go to sleep.

"Forever..." He said as we fell asleep.

Morning

I woke up to a weird feeling on my forehead. It took me a minute to realize it was Roman's lips.

"Morning," He said, kissing my nose. "Merry Christmas," He said and then kissed my lips.

"Merry Christmas, Roman." I said I never wanted to get up. "I wish we could wake up like this every day."

"One day, we will, I promise."

"How? How can you promise that? We don't know what the future will look like for your kind. For us as a couple, and couples like us."

"Your right, I don't, no one does, but one day, no matter when, or where, we will be able to wake up like this."

"I love the way you think." I said and I leaned up and kissed him.

"Shall we go downstairs?"

"Not just yet."

"I can live with that..." He said and we were kissing again. I liked this, this was how I wanted to spend every Christmas, every holiday, every special occasion, in fact every morning.

Eventually we went downstairs.

"Hey guys," I said as we came downstairs Roman's arm around my waist, me leaning into him. Today was perfect, this was by far officially my favorite day.

"Hey," Taylor said, turning around. "So, ready to open presents?"

"Yeah, I guess." I said as me and Roman sat down on the empty couch. Roman was sitting on the edge of the couch as I was lying in his arms. "Well, Taylor you first."

"Okay," She said and she opened my present which was a nice shirt and some jeans. Her parents got her some clothes and a nice purse. Roman got her a coupon to get whatever she wanted because he didn't know what to get her. Then, lastly, Drake got her a nice necklace and a pair of earrings to go with.

"Drake, thank you." She said and gave him a big hug.

"Welcome, open it." He said and when she opened she took in a big gasp. I looked and it was a picture of Drake. "So I'm always with you, even when I go someday."

"Drake..." She said and there were tears in her eyes. "I can't thank you enough."

"Don't, I care about you; it's my present to you." He said and gave her a kiss.

"How did you afford this?"

"I found a way."

"Okay, now Drake, your turn."

"Fine," He said and opened his presents. Roman got him some medicine to help with all the beatings he gets for all the fights he finds himself in. I didn't get him anything because there was nothing to give a guy who didn't want much. Then, Taylor got him a watch with a picture of the Sector on it.

"Thank you Taylor, it's amazing."

"Well, I thought it was something you didn't have and you would actually want."

"True," He said, "Now Roman, it's your turn."

"Let me guess you got me something funny just to laugh at me." Roman said.

"Just open your presents."

"Whatever," Roman said. Roman got a regular watch from Taylor. From Drake Roman got a baseball.

"Wow," Roman said as he opened my present. "You didn't..."

"Yeah, I did." I said.

"Emery-"

"What is it?" Drake asked.

"Do you like it?" I asked.

"Yes, a lot."

"What is it?" Drake asked again.

"It's a star made out of string, like the one I have in my room, but it's in a picture frame."

"Seriously? That's it?"

"When Emery and I met when the ship crashed she taught me how to make one."

"Wow,"

"I told you he would like it, Emery." Taylor said.

"More then like it, I love it. Thank you." He said and gave me a kiss.

"I'm really glad you like it."

"How could I not? It brings back a lot of memories."

"Yeah," I said and I opened my presents. Taylor got me a couple of shirts and other clothes items. Drake got me a pocket knife to protect me. And Roman got me a piece of cyper in water, a remembrance of when we first kissed.

"Roman..."

"Yes?"

"Wow,"

"I thought it would be a good reminder of a first kiss."

"You're a good enough reminder, but thank you."

"Your welcome." He said and kissed me.
