I woke up before she did, the sunlight peered through the large window and I awoke as it rose. I see my arm had become outstretched over her perfectly sculpted figure as I'd slept, I slowly removed it as I didn't want her to wake up and see me like that, she'd probably yell at me and jump out of the bed. As I'd finally managed to slip it out I see her arm fidget and she turned her body around to face mine as she placed her hand on the pillow beside her face. She looked stunning in the mornings, I wish I could tell her that. I admired her beauty and absentmindedly skimmed my index finger along the soft contours of her face. She twitched and I knew she was going to awake soon so I quickly shut my eyes and pretend to still be asleep..

I woke up to the sight of Namjoon, pretending to be asleep. He wasn't very good at acting, I had to laugh. My voice was quite hoarse in the morning so I mumbled drearily "Nice try DiCaprio, you couldn't act even if you tried" I scoff as I close my eyes again, trying to avoid the penetrating light that was burning into them.

I heard him laugh as he said "Can't blame me for trying. Merry Christmas Eve, baby." I open my eyes and give him a glare "Don't make me sick this early in the morning. What's the itinerary for today?" He turns on his back as he sits up and looks back down on me "Today,my love muffin, we are going last minute Christmas Shopping for my family. And you're in charge of deciding what we'll get." I hoist my tired body up to sit beside him, still under the covers. "And what makes you think I'll know what to get them all?" He looks at me and grins "I trust you." My cheeks heat up at what he'd just said and I lift up the covers to get out of the bed, just to avoid him seeing me getting flustered.

I tiptoe on the oak wood floors and head towards the en suite bathroom, I can feel his eyes burning into me as I tiptoe around the bed but try my best to ignore it and I lock the door behind me. I showered and did my usual light makeup, topping it all off with a red lip, it was Christmas Eve after all. I come out in nothing but a towel and I'm met by a fully dressed Namjoon staring at my body, his eyes travelling from mine all the way down to my feet, even his stare made my body heat up, he made it so obvious, his eyes told me all I needed to know. I scoffed and went over to my suitcase to grab the clothes that I'd packed for today.  I put on some simple clothes, a dainty white off the shoulder top and some plain blue jeans then paired it with some plain white sneakers, we were going shopping after all and I wanted to at least be comfy. Once we got there we did a little shopping and went to get a bite to eat. To be honest, I couldn't shake the fact that I was going to miss doing all of these simple things with him. Today was Christmas Eve, that means I was only with him for one more day. I have to make today count and make as many memories as i can.

Whilst we were eating I saw Joon take out his cell and point the camera towards me, "What are you doing?" I ask with a smile, "I wanna capture this memory, forever." I smiled and hear the snap of the photo being taken, then I continue to eat my food. Once we finish we head down with our bags to exit the outlet, at the entrance we see a crowd of people and decide to go see what all the fuss was about. It was a Winter Wonderland where you could visit Santa, before you entered the cottage there was an arch with a garland plaited through it and at the top there was a piece of mistletoe dangling overhead, people were taking pictures kissing underneath it and as we watched, I had completely forgotten that we had been walking around holding hands with one another the entire time.

A couple waiting in line asked us "Would you like us to take a picture of you both?" I looked at her in shock and I couldn't respond, no words would come out. Namjoon replied to her "Um..sure! You can take it on my phone." He passes the phone over to her and leads me underneath the arch. I smile for the camera and the lady says "Well why don't you kiss? You're an adorable couple! It's Christmas after all!" I looked up at him and swallowed the lump in my throat, my heart rate staring to quicken. He clears his throat and says to me quietly, "I'll send it to my Mom, make it more believable you know?" I cough lightly and say "Yeah,sure! More believable.." the truth was, I wanted to kiss him, but, I was scared.

He turned to face me and held both my hands as he leant in for a peck, or so I thought. At first the kiss was light, awkward, but then as I eased into it, I felt more comfortable. I wanted this. More than I thought i did. I raised my arms and put them around his neck, the kiss was intense but it wasn't deepened, we were in a public place after all. Once I pulled away I realised what had just happened and quickly looked down at the floor, my cheeks felt like they were on fire, what was this feeling? Namjoon took his phone off the lady and thanked her, then we continued our journey back to the cabin, in silence. The rest of the evening was pretty chill, we sat up on the sofa together with his family watching old classics, the logs were crackling on the fire and the smell of cinnamon roamed throughout the house. His family went to bed early because the dinner was early in the morning and they had to be up on time, so we stayed up to watch the films ending before we went to sleep. He was really comfy to cuddle with, of course we only did it for his family to see but once they left I was too comfortable to get up so I stayed, he didn't say anything so I guess he was okay with it. Once the ending credits began to play I got up and slowly made my way up the stairs to change into an oversized t-shirt to wear to bed.

About five minutes later Namjoon entered the room, I was just sitting on the edge of the bed, slipping on my fluffy piglet socks this time around. He smiled and let out a heavy breath, obviously admiring my amazing sock collection. Then he asks me "Hey, so everyone was assigned a task for the dinner tomorrow and mine was to make the Christmas cookies and I-" I cut in "it's 11pm and you still haven't made the cookies?" He laughs "you guessed it. Wanna help me get the job done faster?" I smile at him "you're just so lucky to have me." I get up and walk past him, making my way downstairs. "I know I am." Namjoon manages to say, in barely even a whisper...
