'mikey, c'mon its ella's first christmas!' luke was up and out of bed too early for michael liking, so the older boy just groaned and pulled the covers back over his head in an attempt to fall back asleep. luke huffed and pulled the blanket off of him.

'luke, please. im exhausted' michael really wasnt in the mood for anything that day, but he knew luke would only bug him for it. he slowly lifted himself up and looked at luke, who was beaming. he knelt in front of michael and kissed his lips slowly, enough that their lips barely touched. michael ruffled his hair and smiled.

'good morning'

'ella, look! presents!' ella didnt understand lukes excitement but went along with it as though it were the right thing to do. she giggled and clapped her hands before reaching for a box. luke stopped her and pushed the box back to where it belonged. he liked things in a specific order, and unfortunately ella was no exception.

'aw, come on luke. let her open a gift' michael whined as he sat down cautiously with a cup of hot tea in his hands. luke pouted and allowed her to open one of her gifts before the rest of them.

she tried ripping the paper but, upon realizing it was far to difficult, she eventually pushed it back in lukes direction and stood up. 'no like' ella stomped her foot and tried to make the angry face that luke had once taught her. 

'ella, c'mere' michael put his tea down and picked up ellas gift. he slowly helped her tear one of the sides down and allowed her to do the rest. she tore the poor gift to shreds before realizing what it was. she slowly pulled out a little ornament. it was a little reindeer that looked like it was flying and the nose was bright red. ella giggled and started playing with it, her little hands grasping it so tightly that luke and michael both though it might break. 

'now its michaels turn' luke grabbed a medium sized box and handed it to michael, who looked at luke with stern eyes.

'lucas, if this is expensive i'll throw it at you' luke just brushed his comment off and patiently waited for him to open it. michael gently tore the paper, a little quirk he had always been known for, until he had unwrapped the present without actually ripping the paper at all. he smiled as he saw what was inside. 

'luke, i. this is beautiful. its - how much was this?' luke looked at him with confused eyes.

'santa brought it, i dont know how much it cost him' luke smiled slyly at his fiance before grabbing ella and placing her in his lap. 'can't hit me when im holding a baby' he taunted and giggled.

luke was next, according to himself, so michael got up and grabbed a tiny little box that was under the tree. he handed the wrapped gift to luke and sat down in front of him. luke smiled and quickly opened the box, revealing a little cardboard box. the blond quickly opened it, and smiled when seeing a small little trinket. it was a miniature ceramic sculpture of a plant, small enough to fit on his keychain. he loved it.

'thank you, i love it'

they continued to open the rest of the gifts, a few left under the tree for both luke and michaels family. they pair were planning on going to lukes brothers familys house for new years but with ella it was going to be hard now.

'merry christmas baby, i hope you enjoyed everything' luke smiled and stood on his tiptoes to kiss michaels cheek, even though he could have reached his cheek without slightly stretching upward.

'i loved it. thank you mikey'
