Ah. The smell of candy cane lattes and hot cocoa. The family dinner; the perfectly wrapped gifts under the Christmas tree; and the one thing I just could wrap my head around. A mistletoe.
I've  never really had a special moments under it and I'm hoping today's the day where I finally can.
I was invited to spend Christmas Day with my boyfriend, his sister and the Barcelona boys. I'm driving on this cold December afternoon with the snow outside really setting the mood.
I've been dating Leo for 4 years now and when I'm with him everything is perfect. We went to the same schools as kids and I have had a massive crush on him. One day he then asked me to be his and I of course said yes.
I got to his place, it was the house that stood out the most in this neighbourhood. His front yard was covered with colourful lights.
I walk up to his front door and rang the doorbell. Gerard opened it before Leo and gave me a big hug. "Hi Laura! It's great that you get to spend Christmas Day with us. We'll be having Christmas dinner then open presents. Are you staying till then?" He asked with a smile. I nodded my head and watched him run to the kitchen where some of the boys were making food.
Leo let me in and gave me a long hug and kisses. "Hey, beautiful!" He spoke while he caressed my cheek. "Hey babe!" I said while standing on my tiptoes to try kiss him. "Hello boys!" I said cheerfully. "Hey Laura" they all said together not letting their eyes leave the game of FIFA they were playing. I walked to Jaqueline and gave her a big hug "I can't wait for you to be part of our family." I replayed her words in my head and decided to ignore it as she says stuff like these to trick people. I went to the kitchen with Leo behind me and sat down at the table. Gerard call everyone and they came running to the table. Leo placed all of food on the table and tucked in. However, Jaqueline wasn't there. Out of the corner of my eyes I thought I saw her rushing to the hallway with a camera. "I'm probably just seeing things." I say in my head. She came back and joined us giving me a very suspicious smile.

After stuffing my face with food I walk over to the living room. "That was some good food but I am definitely full." I say while letting out a laugh.
"Okay it's time to open some presents!" Leo said.
I open mine and get a whole bunch of clothes. There was a large box with holes in it so I grabbed it from under the tree. "What's this?" Looking at everyone.
"Open it." They say grinning.
I took lid off the box and there laid a small kitten. My eyes widened and looked back up at everybody.
"Merry Christmas!" Leo says.
I look down at the leopard printed kitten. I pick it up from the box, Leo gets up from behind me and walks over and crouches down next to me. "Welcome to the family little one." He whispered.
It was now Leo's turn to open his present. But not a present from his teammates a present from me.
I got him a pair of Nike football shoes that he has always wanted.
"Laura, I can already tell these were very expensive. You didn't have to honestly." He said still curious what I got him even though it's extremely noticeable because of the box.
"Well I know you wanted this for a pretty long time now, so I decided to buy you them. Now open it! I wanna see your reaction." I smiled cheekily.
He opens the box and rips of the covering around them. I could see the admiration in his eyes as he stares at them in shock.
He runs over to me and kisses me passionately.
"Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you! A million times thank you, Laura! I honestly don't know what I would do without you." Those words flutter in my heart as I kiss him again.
We break apart from the hug and checked my watch. It was nearly midnight. I say goodbye to the boys and grabbed my things. There was a camera set up in the hallway of their front door. "So I want seeing things then." I walk past it wondering what it was doing there and not by the living room. Leo walked me up to the door. I gave him one last hug and looked up to see that a mistletoe was hanging above the both of you.
I gave him a passionate kiss and broke apart soon after. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a tiny box. He went down on one knee and tears flooded my eyes. "Laura, all I ever wanted for Christmas was you. And now is the time to ask. Will you do me the honours of making my wish come true and be my wife?"
One those words came out of  his mouth I quickly nodded my head and he slipped the ring on my fingers.
I wrapped my legs around him and gave him a big hug.
Excited to become Mrs Messi.
