Yuletide Memories

"Dad, I know you're paying for Rory's tuition but I promise you I don't want anything" I said, annoyed on the phone. Currently, I was at my house at Yale with Dean, as Maggie was home with her family so it was just Dean and I together in the apartment.
"I'm sorry Tory but I want to give you something. Tell me as soon as you know what you want" Dad said, excitedly. I rolled my eyes, and sighed.
"Of course. Ok I love you" I said, before Dad replied with he same and hung up.
"You still don't know what to ask him for?" Dean asked.
"Yea. I wish Rory didn't say to pay for Yale because now I feel weird" I said.
"And why don't you want him to pay for Yale too?" He asked, as I sat down on the couch, curling up in his lap.
"Because Grandma and Grandpa are paying for it and I like them. They don't have me under their thumb, and I'm not going to do something so stupid like Rory. I'll ask Dad for money when I actually need it" I said. Dean nodded, giving me a kiss.
"Speaking of gifts, what do you want for the holidays?" Dean asked.
"Besides someone who could ace my exams for me this next year? Or a doppelgänger to go to my internship while I spend time with you? Nothing. What about you" I said. Dean sighed.
"Nothing, just you" He said, and I snuggled closer, kissing him before my cellphone rang again.

"Hello?" I asked, annoyed that we were interrupted.
"Hi Tory, are you coming home for break?" Rory asked. I sighed. Even though she was coming back to school and working on making it all back up, I was shaky on where that left her and I. Her and Mom ran back to each other with open arms, but I was hesitant. Here we go again, with the exclusions and the favorite sister.
"I'm staying at my apartment with Dean. Why?" I replied. Dean started rubbing his hand up and down my bare leg. We were underneath the blanket on the couch, and I was just wearing one of Dean's large sweatshirts, while he had on some gray sweatpants and a sweatshirt.
"Oh ok. Well I was trying to finalize some stuff for the holidays since it'll just be us this time. Will you be spending every night there?" She asked, a little dejected.
"Yes I will. I have extra hours at the hospital too, so just let me know what the schedule is and I'll tell you what Dean and I can come participate in" I said.
"Ok. Love you" She said, and I didn't say it back before hanging up.

"When do you have to go back to the hospital?" Dean asked, as he brought my legs over him so I straddled him.
"I've got the night shift tonight, so 8, maybe 9?" I said, looking over to my calendar on the fridge.
"Well we've got some time..." Dean said, as he put his lips to my neck and I started working my hands into his hair.

Basically living with Dean now was a gift in itself. We rarely got to do things like this during the year, and now, here we were, together as a couple almost every hour of the day. It was crazy how much I loved him. It was becoming more and more apparent everyday. I wanted to have a family with him. No one else understood me better than him. After everything we went through, we were still together.

"So, thoughts on taking a trip this break when you don't have hospital hours?" Dean asked, laying in bed after having sex. M
"The longest amount of time I don't have work is overnight, and I'm overnight on the holidays..." I said, resting my head on his chest. "Also this feels like vacation just being here with you"
"Yea I guess so. I'm so thrilled Maggie's not here this break" Dean said, wrapping his large arms around me tighter. I smiled.
"Definitely. I get to be with my hunk of a boyfriend all the time" I said, and I could feel his chuckle in his chest.
"I think tomorrow I'm going to head to Stars Hollow to play hockey with the boys. Would you want to come with?" He said.
I nodded.
"Yea, I have my shift though, so I'm going to nap now before so then tomorrow I'm not completely dead" I said, and he nodded.

"Do you have your coffee mug?" Dean asked, the next day when we were going on the road to Stars Hollow. I had gotten off at 6am and had crawled into Dean's arms in bed to sleep until 11am when he finally woke me up to go to Stars Hollow.
"Yes, probably going to need some more from Luke but I have this one, and yours" I said, showing him our mugs in my hand as he carried his hockey equipment bag on his shoulder. He leaned down to kiss me, before we headed to his truck to go home.
