- Christmas -
Alfie's POV

I open my eyes slowly, squinting at the figure infront of me. I blink a few times before registering who it is. Zoe.

"Wakey, wakey gorgeous," She smiles, pushing my sides. I chuckle and roll back over.

"Ten more minutes," I moan, closing my eyes again.

"We can sleep for ten more minutes after weve opened gifts!" She says, rolling me back onto my back.

"I know what else we can do for ten more minutes," I wink, causing her to giggle. She pulls at my arm, but fails. Her fragile body makes no impact on me.

"Alfieee!" She squeaks. I feel her soft punches hit my arm.

"What's the time?" I ask, she checks the alarm clock next to me.

"7.08am" she reads, looking back at me.

"Zoe! That's too early!" I say, pulling her arm so she falls onto my lap. I wrap my arms around her and kiss her neck, before tickling her sides. She squeals with laughter. I eventually stop and peck her lips.

"Now can we open presents?" she pleads,

"Only if you kiss me," I smirk. She gives in, leaning closer in to me. I push her away and run out of the room.

"As if, who'd want to kiss you!" I shout from the living room. She sticks her bottom lip out, as she ponders into the room. "Only joking little one," I laugh. I get up and take her by the hips, I feel her body tense as I lean in closer and closer. I brush my lips against her, teasing a little. I decided enough teasing is enough and crash my lips onto her, taking in the passion. I can feel my hands wanting to gravitate lower, but I stop myself. I pull away, gazing into her eyes. She smiles as I peck her lips a final time. My hands were still placed on her hip, so I lift her up into the air and plop her down on the sofa.

After opening the pile of gifts we'd collected from different friends and companys who'd sent us things, we moved onto each others presents. Zoe handed me hers first. I shook it first before opening the paper.

"Alfieee, you'll break it," She laughs. I stop shaking and tear off the wrapping paper. Underneath is a heart shaped collage frame. My eyes scan over the pictures of us both.

"Zoe, it's beautiful, thank you," I say. It truly is.

"Glad you like it gorgeous," She smiles. I hand her my present to her. She slowly tears off the wrapping paper, the butterflies in my stomach rise. What if she didn't like it. Her hands hover over the navy blue box, making me more and more nervous by the second. She lifts of the lid and her mouth drops.

"Alfie, its...it's...gorgeous," She stutters. I breath a sigh of relief.

"Come here, lemme put it on you," I take the piece of jewlery out of the box and get her to move her hair out the way. I secure the chain around her neck and she spins back around. The diamond glitsens, catching me in the eye. She wraps her arms around my neck and kisses me slowly. This time everything is more meaningful.
