Lily woke up in Grayson's bed. She was so excited. It was Christmas. This would be the first time Lily would have spent Christmas with Grayson - in reality. She turned to face Grayson. She saw him looking down at her with a cheesy smile. She giggled as she said, "You look like an idiot when you smile like that!"

His smile grew wider. "What? Am I not allowed to look at your beauty? Is it a crime to be mesmerised by you?" He asked. Lily shook her head as she sat up in bed. She felt Grayson's arms around her waist.

She slapped his chest. "Come on, we better go down". They climbed out of bed and walked downstairs. They saw The Dolans all sitting in the living room. They were all looking at the presents. Mrs Dolan turned around as they entered the room.

"Yay!" Ethan yelled. "We've been waiting for you two to come down for about 20 minutes now! Come on! I want to open the presents!" Grayson and Lily laughed as they joined everyone else on the couch.

After opening the presents and thanking everyone, they all sat at the dinning table and ate the Christmas dinner prepared by Mrs Dolan. They were all laughing and talking as the day went on.

They were all sitting in the living room watching Christmas movies when Grayson whispered to Lily. "I brought you a gift". She faced him in shock. He smiled at her as he reached inside his pocket. He pulled out a red velvet box. She carefully opened it to see a heart locket. When she opened it, she saw a picture of Grayson on the left side and both of them on the other.

Lily smiled as she placed the necklace in the box. She turned to Grayson. "I love it!" She whispered before kissing him. They were disturbed by someone faking a cough. They parted and saw everyone staring at them. They turned bright red as they continued to watch the movie.

It was 7pm when Mrs Dolan cooked pizza for everyone. Everyone ate the pizza while watching more Christmas movies. It was 11pm when everyone was going bed. Grayson and Lily weren't tired, so they stayed downstairs to watch more movies.

It was 1am when Grayson and Lily decided to go to bed. Grayson carried Lily up the stairs and to his room. He placed her on his bed and went into her suitcase for her pajamas. He smiled as he faced her. "I'm glad you like your present". He handed her the neatly folded pajamas.

Lily smiled as she said, "I love it!" Grayson's smile grew wider. "Can you please turn around while I change?" She asked. Grayson quickly turned around and began searching his wardrobe for something to wear.

"I'm done" he heard as he stood up. He turned back around and saw Lily lying in bed. She smiled at him. Grayson chuckled as he saw her.

"Close your eyes" he demanded. Lily put her hands over her eyes while Grayson changed into his nightwear. She was lying in bed with her hands over her eyes when she felt soft lips on hers. She smiled as she removed her hands and kissed back. She wrapped her arms around his neck. He was lying on top of her.

They stopped kissing and smiled at each other. "I thought you were tired" Lily said.

Grayson smiled down at her. "I'm never tired of you" he replied as he kissed her again. They kissed for a while - it was more like a make out session. Grayson placed his hands inside her jumper and along her hips. Their lips moved together and moulded into one.

Eventually, they broke apart for air. Grayson hovered over Lily while they caught their breaths. He smiled down at her while she smiled up at him. "I think we should go to sleep, don't you think?"

"Yeah" she breathed. She moved over so he could lie next to her. Grayson pulled her towards him. She placed her head on his chest and listened to her heart beat. "You're heart is beating so fast!" Lily laughed.

She felt him vibrate as he laughed along. "It always does when I get nervous. When I'm around you". Lily looked up at him.

"You get nervous when I'm around?"

His face went red from embarrassment. "Yeah". Lily smiled as she placed her head back on his chest. Her heart was beating fast, like Grayson's heart.

"Me too" she said before going to sleep.
