You do Christmas-y things with him.
Michael:
"Awww, look Mikey. Isn't this cute?" you asked him. You showed him the small plush penguin that was randomly laying on one of the aisles in Target. He just shrugged, making you sigh.
The holidays is your favorite time of the year. Everything is decorated so nicely, you get to spend time with your family, and everyone just seems happier around this time of year. You couldn't wait to spend this special time with your boyfriend of almost eight months, but it hadn't exactly been going the way you planned.
You had to drag Michael out of the house today so you two could go Christmas shopping together. Then the whole time he had an attitude. He wouldn't talk and when you asked him for his opinion on a potential gift for his friends, he barely helped.
"I'm getting this to put in Luke's stocking. Do you know what you're getting your bandmates for Christmas?" you asked him as you both continued to walk down the aisle.
"No, I'll probably just pick something random." he told you, shrugging.
"Michael, you can't do that. You have to put thought into each gift or it doesn't mean anything. If you're going to 'just pick up something random' you might as well not get them anything." you told him.
"Well, I just don't feel like thinking about right now y/n! Damn." he yelled, rubbing his hands through his red hair like he did when he was frustrated. You rolled your eyes.
"I'll be in the car." He stormed off before you had a chance to protest, making you even more irritated than you already were.
"Asshole." you mumbled to yourself. You couldn't understand why he didn't want to spend time with you doing things that you were supposed to do on Christmas.
You were so excited to go shopping with him, put up decorations, wrap presents, and just be around your favorite person during your favorite time of year, but all he wanted to do was lay in bed and play video games. He could do that anytime! All you were asking for is to spend a little time with him and he couldn't even do that. You were wondering if spending the holidays with him was a good idea after all.
Ashton:
"No, babe, let's put it in front of the window so you can see it from outside." you told your boyfriend, Ashton.
You two had been out all day looking for the perfect tree. One that was not too small, but not so big that it wouldn't fit into your apartment. It also had to be artificial, so that no bugs could possibly be on it and freak Ashton out. After you found the perfect tree, you brought it home and put it up. Now you were trying to find the perfect place for it so you could decorate it.
"As you wish." Ashton told you. He picked the tree up and moved it across the room and put it in front of your living room window.
"Is this okay?" he asked you. You stepped back and looked at it with your hand on your chin.
"Yeah, that's fine. Let's decorate it." you told him. You both picked up the bag of decorations you had just bought today and started taking stuff out.
You opened the brand new box of lights and looked up at Ashton, laughing as soon as you did. He had the white, sparkly, garland wrapped around his neck like it was a scarf.
"What's so funny?" he asked you.
"That's for the tree babe." you told him.
"I know that." he said. You shook your head as you took the garland from around his neck and put it in his hand.
"Then go put it on the tree." He nodded his head and went to wrap it around the tree. Once he was done you dragged the lights to the tree and he helped you put them on next. You both walked around the tree repeatedly since the length you got was a little long for your medium sized tree.
During this process, Ashton ended up getting tangled in the lights, which locked him in with the tree. You hunched over and laughed once you realized what was going on.
"Y/n, it's not funny. Help me." Ashton said. He tried to turn and pull his way out but it didn't work. This only made you laugh harder.
Suddenly an idea popped into your head and you moved closer to Ashton, hearing him mumble a 'finally' thinking you were going to help him. You had other plans though.
You reached into his pocket and took his phone out. You unlocked it before going to keek and recording a video, making sure the camera was on Ashton. You laughed at his face once he realized what you were doing.
"Hey guys.. so we were decorating the tree and Ashton got himself stuck." you said, laughing even harder than before afterwards.
"C'mon y/n this isn't funny, help me." he said before laughing himself. He tried again to get out himself and giggled when the lights didnt budge. He kept the smile on his face as he shook his head at you and probably the entire situation. After the video was done, you posted it and walked to him. You pushed his phone back into his pocket and gave him a peck on the lips.
"You're such an idiot, but you're cute." you told him.
"I'm your cute idiot." he said, making you smile as you unwrapped the lights from around him as well as the tree.
Once Ashton was free he grabbed your waist and pulled your body close to his. He leaned down and kissed your forehead before staring into your eyes.
"I love you." he said.
"I love you too." you said back to him. You both smiled then he let you go so you both could attempt to decorate the tree again.
-request for cake!! :)
