Continuation of the Christmas specials 🎅🎄

Johnny was the definition of a walking Christmas tree. Oh, you think I'm talking about his height? No, no. He would spend every day of december wearing his stupid ugly Christmas sweater with actual lights sewed on it. His hair constantly adorned with a headband that had a star glued to it and he would sometimes forget that he was wearing it and would go out like that into the street. I hated that. I hated Christmas ever since I started dating Johnny.

The first time we spent Christmas together I felt quite weirded out but I thought it was just a quirky thing, but taking that every single day of every single december for 4 years straight, it became too much. Obviously I wouldn't break up with him over that, I'm not stupid, but I just wanted to tell him to tone it down a little bit.

It was the mid december and, unlike other Christmas', we were only able to decorate the tree very late into the month. There he was, once again, the green and red of his shirt burning holes in my eyes while the lights that adorned it sparkled and changed color every so often. The star on top of his head was glittery and he was humming Jingle bells to himself. His tall frame stood besides the tree and if I were to be short sighted, I would probably not be able to distinguish them.

"Y/n, help me out with the lights."

Oh, great. More lights. Why was he like that?

"Y/n? Come help me." Johnny called me again.

I walked towards him to untangle the lights with his help.

"Do you not feel warm with that shirt?" I tried to shoot my shot, maybe he would fall back to his senses.

"Not at all. I feel very cozy with it and honestly, even if I was feeling too hot, I wouldn't take it off. It makes me feel so-" He rambled and I couldn't take it anymore.

"Gosh, Johnny! Can't you just take off that stupid sweater for once?! It's so embarrassing and I hate it! It looks terrible on you and it's simply the most annoying thing ever!" Sis snapped. Maybe I shouldn't have been so harsh with him, and the result of my actions was clear in his expression.

His shoulders lowered and his smile fell from his face. Nothing hurt more than to see the person I love feel like shit. You are so stupid, Y/n!

He looked at me with sadness filling his eyes and without a word he hastily took the shirt off revealing his red t-shirt under it. He threw the sweater at me and shook the star off of his head.

"Thank you for ruining Christmas for me. Be happy getting rid of it." The tall boy in front of me spat and walked past me towards the bedroom giving my shoulder a slight push.

I looked at the item of clothing in my hands and at the glitter that was falling from the star and onto the fabric. Then I looked at the closed door that lead to our shared bedroom. I am the most idiotic human being on Earth.

I sat on the couch and felt the tears stinging behind my eyes. I didn't mean to make him feel that bad, all I wanted was for him to change clothes here and there.

My eyes scanned the room around me and they landed on the star that instead of being on top of the tree was laying on the ground. It used to give me hope but now it was just making me replay his cold answer in my mind, until it clicked. The star was giving me hope once more as I felt an idea grow inside my racing mind.

I dropped the sweater that was once in my hands on the couch and left the headband next to it and walked out of our shared apartment.

My steps were quick and fierce as I knew exactly where I was going and what I was doing. I didn't want to think of the worst so all I kept thinking was of the possible positive outcome.

I turned the corner and walked a couple of blocks, until I reached the Christmas store that was open every december.

I walked in and immediately made my way towards the clothing section greeting the woman that was behind the register.

"Do you need any help?" The woman kindly approached me as my hands were feeling the soft material of a blue Christmas sweater.

"Yes, can you give me one of each Christmas sweater there is available?" I asked without hesitation.

I didn't know if it would work, probably not, but it was worth a shot.

"Sure thing, I'll be right back." She replied with a smile and walked to the back room.

After a short period of 15 long minutes that seemed like forever to me, the woman that helped me earlier was standing in front of me with around twelve sweaters, all different from one another and all Christmas themed. I was feeling excited.

A lot of bags, struggling, tape and 400$ later, I had all I needed to get back home.

As I arrived, I opened the door with the biggest struggle of my life, but managed to open it. I placed the bags on the couch and looked at them and then at my tree. It was nearly naked. I placed every ornament that was laying around or that was already hung on the tree and put it back inside the boxes where they came from. We would do the Christmas tree together with a new sweater added in the mixture of lightning and Christmas joy.

I opened every bag and took out all the sweaters laying them neatly on the floor from our bedroom to the living room where I would be standing. I grabbed his old one and hung it on our room's doorknob. I knocked getting a simple hum in response.

"There's something on the doorknob for you." I spoke and went back to the living room, standing in the middle of it with a Christmas sweater in my hands, but that sweater was special.

At last, I heard the door open and a deeply confused 'hum' came from him. He started making his way towards the living room, I could hear his steps approaching.

When he turned the corner to finally come face to face with me and the last piece of clothing, he had his arms wrapped tightly around the clothes that were once on the ground.

"Y-Y/n, what is all this?" He asked with furrowed eyebrows. Frustration from the 'fight' we had had still visible but now mixed with curiosity.

"Johnny, I'm sorry for saying those things about your sweater. I just feel a little weird because you wear it everywhere for the whole month." I spoke clenching the fabric in my hands. "That's why I thought that maybe it would be better if you were to have more of them, so you don't have to wear the same one over and over."

His eyes were wide and his grip on the clothes got loose. A slight smile played around his lips and he eventually let it spread on his face.

"Words can't describe how much I love you right now, Y/n." He let go of all the sweaters and came to hug me placing a kiss on my lips after letting me go.

"These two are the last ones." I showed him the two deep blue Christmas sweaters that I was holding.

They looked exactly the same, except mine was a little smaller. Yup, I bought one for myself.

"Y/n." He held my cheeks and looked me in the eyes. "I love you."

"I love you too." I chuckled and said it back.

He separated from me and immediately put the dark blue sweater on. His eyes glistened with joy as he hugged me once more.

"Wait, you forgot something." I gasped.

He looked confused. I turned to the couch and held his star placing it gently on his head as he smiled at me sheepishly.

He was my walking Christmas tree and he always will be.
