BLIND LOVE

Christmas

Chloe's PoV
Today is Christmas Day!
The snow is falling and it is the 5th Christmas that me and Luka are spending together! I think we are gonna meet my parents properly and have half a Christmas lunch with them and then I'm gonna go to his. It's been a few months since I graduated so I'm really excited to have a very grown up Christmas.
My phone starts to ring so I pick it up, "hello?"
"Hey bee! What's up?"
"Oh, hey Luka! You here yet?"
He chuckles, "sure am! Just coming up...are your parents there yet?"
"I'm pretty sure they're waiting on the dining room! Come meet me in my room and we'll go from here..."
"Ok...see you in a minute..."
I smile, "ok, bye...love you..."
"Love you more..."
"Love you the most..."
We hang up and I quickly check my outfit. It was a grey, fluffy, off-the-shoulder romper and knee-length socks. I also had white heels on and a red bow keeping my hair up.
I am decorating the mini Christmas tree in my room when I hear a knock at my door.
"Coming!"
I run over to the door and open it.
"Well, good morning Madame!"
It was Jean!
"Jean! Good morning! Merry Christmas!"
"Madame Bourgeois, your boyfriend is here, also, I am heading home for Christmas so I will not see you until I come back! So have a merry Christmas!"
"Aww, Jean! You have a good Christmas too! Tell your family I said 'Merry Christmas! And a happy new year!" I beam joyfully.
"Will do Madame!" He says and as he leaves, Luka arrives and I pull him inside.
"I'm almost finished! I'm just decorating my tree...there! Done!"
I place the last bauble on and turn to be greeted by him with a kiss.
(Luka isn't wearing the same outfit. His is just a more groomed out version of his normal clothes)

"Ahh, Luka..." I whisper shyly, "we have to go, come on..."
He smiles, "you look beautiful!"
Giggling, I flick my hair behind me, "I know!"
Laughing, we talk about plans for today as we walk to have lunch with mom and dad.
"Luka! Chloe! How are you both?"
"Ah, good morning Mr Charpentier! Merry Christmas!"
"Merry Christmas!" He turns to bow before leaving. I smile happily. Luka kisses my forehead. Giddily, I lay my head on his shoulder as we walk to the dining room

We arrive at the dining room and I gasp at the sight of the decor.
A massive glass chandelier hang in the middle of the room. There was a large Christmas tree in the corner and Christmas lights accenting each door. Mistletoe hang above three doors.
"Oh! Darling!" Daddy sings, "you're under a piece of mistletoe!"
Looking at eachother, Luka and I blush before kissing. We are still quite uncomfortable of kissing in front of eachother's parents.
"How sweet, come sit, come sit!" Mom sings also. Huh, I'm certain mom and dad are made for eachother...anyways...
"Uh, sure thing, Mrs Bourgeois..."
"Oh Luka! Please, I've said you can call me Audrey!"
"Ah, sorry, um, Audrey..." he awkwardly says.
I giggle at his awkwardness. Holding his hand under the table, I say, "just relax, we've done this so many times..."
He nods.
We sit and talk for a bit.
"So Luka, next year is your last year, at uni?"
"Ah, no sir, it's my second year."
"Ah, ok...so how long is the course?"
"There's 3 years of the course," he says calmly.
I cheer, "and this is my first year!"
Mom laughs, "I remember university! That's where your father and I truly had the time of our lives. How far are your forms from eachother?"
"Mine is on the far left on the second floor," I say.
"and mine is on the far left on the third floor," Luka states.
"Aww, so, are you both underneath slash on top of eachother-"
Daddy spits out his water and Luka and I awkwardly cough, "Umm, well, you could...say that..."
Mom realises her embarrassing wording and says, "I mean, are your rooms-"
"We get it! Mom..." I whisper 'mom'
Patting my back, Luka says, "it's ok Chloe..."
I gulp and say, "umm, mom, dad?"
They nod.
"I'm sure you're both worried about us being, umm, active and all..." I fidget slightly.
Daddy coughs, "umm, well, as long as you're both being safe."
I nod profusely, "oh of course daddy!"
Just then, dinner is brought out and mom quickly says, "well then, that's all that matters," and then we eat.

After dinner, we sit around the Christmas tree and give presents.
"Rightie o!" I say proudly, "open my presents first! Oh wait, but me and Luka have joint presents for you mom and dad
Mom opens her present.
"It's a hat that Marinette, Luka and I had designed. Do you like it?"
"Oh yes darling! This is SO in right now! Marinette is a very good designer, right dear?"
Daddy nods, "I love my present! It's a Christmas sash!"
"Daddy you must wear this every Christmas, ok?"
"Ok dear!" He says. I hug my parents and then sit close to Luka, practically on his lap.
"Go on, open yours Luka..." I excitedly say.
He nods and opens it.
"No way! Is this-"
"Uh huh!" I giggle as he opens the big box to reveal a guitar signed by Jagged Stone!
He kisses me and I smile, "I'm glad you like it Luka..."
"Like it? I love it!"
My parents coo as he hugs me and I blush slightly.
"O-ok, I'm going to open mom's present now!" I stutter and fumble with it. Opening it, I gasp at the sight of a dress from her Christmas collection.
"Oh my god! Mom, you're kidding!? No way!"
"I thought my daughter should have one, no? And so there you go!"
"It's amazing! Thank you!"
Next Luka opened his present from mom. It was a jacket, just like his current one, but it was a lot more formal.
"It's for any events that Chloe invites you to! So you don't lose your style but you will be more formal with this!"
"Thank you Mrs-ah, Audrey?" He asks permission to call her by her name.
"Luka, I said you can call me by my name, no need to ask!"
Luka nods nervously.
Mom turns to daddy, "your turn dear!"
Daddy opens his present and smiles, "oh! It's a photo frame of our family! How wonderful!"
They share a kiss and I smile. I don't know if I've addressed it or not but my parent's relationship is so much more closer now. They care for eachother a lot more and each year, their bond gets stronger.
"Chloe?"
"Hmmm?"
"Open Luka's present now!"
I blink and nod, "right!"
Grabbing his present, I excitedly open it to reveal...
"Oh my god, is this a personalised microphone?"

He nods and I hug him.
"This is-I can't even..."
"Do you like it?"
"Please! I love it Luka!"
He smiles, "I'm glad..."
Next, we opened daddy's presents to us.
Mom opens hers and smiles, "dearie me, how much did you spend on this fabric? It's...THIS IS SILK!"
I gasp as the two hug and share a kiss.
"Silk?" Luka asks quietly, "isn't that really expensive?"
I nod. He smiles and opens his present.
"Oh my goodness, Christmas socks!"
I giggle at his happy smile, "you love socks that much?"
"Correction bee, I love CHRISTMAS socks."
I laugh, "you're so goofy!"
Finally, I open my present from daddy.
Unwrapping, I lay eyes on an instax mini camera!
"Daddy! This is amazing! Thank you!"
"No problem Chloe! I know how much you always wanted one of these!"
I take it out and turn it on. After setting it up, I turn it around and take a selfie with it.
"Get in mom, daddy!" I cheer and take the photo.
It prints out and I smile, "it's perfect!"
Luka and I walk to my room, our presents in hand.
Placing them down on my sofa, we cuddle for a bit.
"I love you Chloe..." he whispers.
I smile contently, "me too..."
