Advent Calendars - Roger

December has started! I can not wait to spend my first Christmas with my boyfriend Roger. He seems to be pretty excited for the festivities too. Yesterday we went out to buy advent calendars. I think opening chocolate advent calendars is his favourite Christmas tradition. I tried to get him to understand the real meaning of advent but he is just in it for the chocolate treats.

Unfortunately I have to work long hours leading up to Christmas. It's understandable though as it is the shop's most busiest time of year, but I wanted to be with Roger at this time of year. He said he didn't mind waiting to decorate the flat until I got home late at night. I don't mind either, it sounds kind of romantic. I just didn't want Roger waiting around for me. You see, Roger is in a band and they have all decided to have a break over the winter months. This means Roger has nothing to do and he gets bored very easily.

I stretched my arms out whilst I was still laying down in bed. I made sure I didn't knock Roger with my tired limbs as I wasn't completely sure if he was awake or not.

"Morning" He said, confirming to me that he was actually awake. His voice was always so groggy and deep in the mornings.

"Happy December!" I said in a happy tone, my excitement was really taking over

"We need to open our advent calendars!" Roger said after suddenly sitting up with a massive toothy grin on his face

"You're a child" I groaned, still tucked under the covers to shelter me from the freezing winter weather

"A cute child though" he added

"Yes, a very cute child" I pulled him down by the shoulder to give him a kiss. He happily kissed back as he caressed my blushing cheek.

"I'll make you a deal. How about I bring the advent calendars in here, then you don't have to get out of bed just yet" Roger suggested

"Yes please" I yawned. I really wasn't looking forward for work today.

Roger quickly hopped out of bed and went to the kitchen where we now keep the advent calendars. I could hear his footsteps gradually get quieter and then gradually get louder again. He burst back into the bedroom with a cheesy smile.

"Here's yours" he passed me my advent calendar. It was red with snowflakes on it.

"Thank you" I lipped my lips, really craving that chocolate

"Oh look! Mine has stars on it!" Roger pointed at his green advent calendar, "I didn't notice that before" he added

"That's because you were too distracted on what is on the inside" I sassed

We opened the little paper flap at the same time. My chocolate was in the shape of a stocking and Roger's was in a shape of a Christmas pudding. The chocolate was barely the size of a 50 pence piece so it didn't take us long at all to eat it.

"Mmm so good" Roger has a face of satisfaction

"I better get ready for work" I rubbed my face as I began to get out of bed.

Roger watched me as I got into my work uniform.

"What are you staring at Taylor?" I questioned as I caught his gaze on me

"Something just caught my eye, that's all" he smirked

"Sure" I rolled my eyes as I left the room. I then heard Roger following after me. He snaked his arms around my waist and turned me to face him.

"Please don't go" He spoke quietly

"I have to Rog, I need the money" I explained

"I can help you with the money, I don't mind" Roger tried to persuade me. It didn't work, I feel like I should earn my money.

"No Roger, you know what I'm like" I frowned

"I'm going to be bored though" he tilted his head

"I'll be back before you know it. Then we can dig the decorations out" I tapped his nose before grabbing my keys from the shelf

"Have a good day then" He said sweetly

"Love you" I reached for the door handle

"I love you too" he winked

Work was pretty boring. Selling the same things to the same regular customers. Don't get me wrong, it's a good job and a nice place to work, it's just dull and nothing exciting ever happens. Not like it does at home. Roger is unpredictable, even to himself, this means we have a lot of fun and laughs - mainly at his expense. It was only yesterday that he nearly burnt the house down. I think he was more glad that I was laughing instead of screaming at him.

It was 6:30pm when I got back home. When I walked through the doorway everything was weirdly dark and silent.

"Roger?" I called out

"In here" I heard a grumble

I walked to where the voice was coming from - the living room. I found Roger sprawled across the sofa with his hands clutching his stomach.

"Roger what did you do?" I quizzed

"Urghhh" he rubbed his stomach, "I got bored and I might have nearly, slightly, accidentally, eaten all of the advent calendar"

"It's the first of December! Do you have any control?" I giggled

"No" he whined

"It's ok, you can have mine if you want" I offered

"I ate that too" Roger said quietly, so close to a whisper

"Roger!" I pretended to be mad but I really couldn't keep up my act for long. I found myself laughing at Roger yet again.

"It hurts" He frowned with those puppy eyes of his

"Serves you right" I raised an eyebrow

"I'm sorry. I'll buy you another" Roger said

"Ok, lets just get you to bed and give you some pills. We can cuddle up instead of decorating tonight" I smiled warmly

"That sounds perfect" Roger reached for my hand and I let him take it. He kissed the back of it before using it to help hoist himself to his feet.

You both went to the bedroom where you retreated to the duvet. Tonight was especially cold so you cuddled up together to keep each other warm.

"I love you Rog. Even though you get yourself into a right mess" I chuckled lightly

"Thanks for always getting me out of the mess. I love you too" he hummed in content as you ruffled his hair.
