Where We Want To Be. A LINSTEAD Story

Chapter 43

This one is kind of a long chapter because i didnt feel like spliting it in 2. That's why it took me a little longer to update.

Christmas eve was finally here.

It's the day I have been waiting for for the whole year. Even though I never really celebrated Christmas when I was younger it is still my favorite time of the year.

"Good morning." Jay says stirring beside me as he wrapped his arm around my waist and pulls me closer.

"Good morning." I say giving him a kiss before snuggling into his arms.

"Are you hungry?" He asks.

"A little"

"Well, you stay here and I will make you some breakfast." Before I can respond he is out of bed and walking towards the kitchen.

I love this. Waking up to the man I love. Having him make me breakfast. It feels like I have a normal life. And I wouldn't trade it for the world.

After a few minutes of laying in bed i decide to get up and go see what Jay is doing in the kitchen.

I walk out and see him at the stove and he has an omelet almost finished in the frying pan.

I walk up behind him and wrap my arms around his waist. I can feel the warmth radiating off his chest even though he doesn't have a shirt on.

"I was going to bring you breakfast in bed" He says.

"Well I was tired of laying there waiting and I wanted to get up." I said as he turned around.

"I love you." I say as his hands go onto my waist pulling me closer to him.

"I love you too." He says as I put my hands on his chest and lean in giving him a kiss.

His lips meet mine and kiss back right away.

He pulls away only when I can start to hear the food sizzling meaning it is done.

He grabs a plate and puts my breakfast on it putting it on the table for me as he does the same for himself.

"So what are the plans for today?" I ask as I take a bite.

"Well we are going to my parents place for dinner tonight. But the rest of the day we aren't doing anything." He says.

"Well we should probably go and see hank. He doesn't have anyone to spend Christmas with this year since Justin died and olive left."

"Oh yeah my parents called last night after you went to bed and said if you wanted to you could invite him over. There is always room."

"Well we can go see him today and see if he wants to come."

"And they also wanted to know if we would like to stay the night and wake up there tomorrow morning and do presents and everything there. My brothers and sister are staying there."

"OK. Is there enough room?" I ask.

"Yeah we can stay in my old room." He says smiling.

I have been to his parents multiple times but I have never seen his old room.

"Yeah that sounds fun" I smile as I finish my breakfast.

Jay finishes his too and we get up putting our dishes away.

We both walk into the bedroom to get dressed for the day but I stop first in the doorway of the kitchen.

I look into the living room and see our small Christmas tree with a few present a under it. Then I look into the bedroom and see Jay looking for something to wear.
