It was 12:30 and we were lying next to each other naked under Olly’s sheets entangled in each other’s limbs. “They didn’t stay on long” I giggled.

“Nope they didn’t, round 2?” He pulled me on top of him.

“Okay” He pulled my hair out of the ponytail and started kissing me again.

We rolled over as one causing me to squeal.

We awoke at 7 to the sound of Louis banging on our door. “Uncle Owee and Caroline its Christmas!” he yelled. I rolled over and we saw two Christmas onzies on the end of the bed with a note on the top:

Merry Christmas love Santa

 I pulled on my black bra and a clean pair of knickers and pulled my onzie up and Olly pulled on a pair of boxers and his onzie. We exited the room and Olly picked up Louie.

“Come on big man let’s see if Santa has been” With his other hand Olly put it on my back as I walked down the stairs. Fay, Ben and Olly’s parents were behind us as I lead the way.

“Presents!” Louie yelled as I opened the lounge door. Obviously Louie’s piles of gifts were the biggest since he was the only one that believed in Santa. We all had separate piles so it was easier to see who’s were who’s Louie pounced into the lounge and found his pile Fay quickly followed him so he didn’t break anything.

Fay came to join us on the sofa she sat in-between me and Olly and whispered “You too need to be more quiet” she placed her hands on our legs. Before Olly stood up and walked over to a pile of presents.

“Caroline these are for you” He gestured for me to join him near the TV.  There was no room on the floor for me to sit down so Olly grabbed me onto his knee. “Open this one first, it’s from Fay” he handed me a gift bag. Inside was my favourite perfume Honey by Marc Jacobs. I smiled and thanked her. The next gift I opened was from Olly’s parents they had bought me a pair of pyjamas and a pair of slippers. There was still quite a big pile in front of me all from Olly. I opened a pair of diamond earrings, a pair of shoes I saw in topshop, some Mac makeup (that I had ran out of), an underwear set, an opi nail polish set and a few more bits. I turned around hugged him and kissed his forehead.

“I love them” I whispered.

“I love you” he turned around and got a present off the coffee table behind him. “Unwrap it” I was now straddling him. I had completely forgotten we were in Olly’s mum’s living room with most of his family. I unwrapped the paper and I was left with a little jewellery box. I automatically knew what it was. “Open it darlin” I opened the little red box and inside was the most beautiful engagement ring I have ever seen.

“Olly” I gasped, tears were running down my face and I rarely cried in front of people.

“Caroline Louise Flack, we haven’t been dating for long however you have been my best friend for nearly 4 years and we have gone through so much together and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?” I nodded and he slid the ring onto my finger. He kissed me it was only short and soft but I knew that he meant it.

“I love you Olly” My arms hugged his neck tight.

“I was going to propose in New York on New Year ’s Eve but you’re going to Jamaica” He got me off his knee and I walked over to his pile of presents.

“Your gifts aren’t as good as this” I laughed.

“I have you” He kissed my head as he took a seat on the sofa behind me.

“This one is from your mum and dad” I handed him quite a large present.

“We didn’t know what to get a man that has everything” Vicky added.

“Mum you didn’t have to get me anything” He took if from my hands unwrapped it. It was a set of twelve glass tumblers. On the box it said ‘tipsy tumblers’ because they were slanted. Olly started laughing. “Mum I love them”

“Well because we know how much you love to drink” Pete added laughing.

“From Fay, Ben and Louis” I handed him another large present. He kissed Fay on the cheek and started unwrapping the gift. It was a large canvas of him and Louis, I knew how much he loved Louis, and his love for Louis was like my love for my nieces.

“I love it” He smiled and gave Fay another kiss on the cheek.

“From me” He opened it some French Connection socks, another had a white Givenchy shirt in and a couple of more bits. “This is the last one” I smiled handing him a small rectangular gift. He took off the paper to reveal a box he opened the box and it revealed a positive pregnancy test.

“Caroline...” He looked up and tears formed in his eyes.

“Merry Christmas” He stood up and picked me up.

“I love you” He kissed me. He put me down and we saw Olly’s family’s reaction, Vicky and Fay were crying, Louie was playing with a new toy, Pete was staring and smiling at up and Ben was comforting Fay.

“I can’t believe it!” Vicky-Lyn cried.  I was crying in Olly’s arms and he was crying into my hair. Vicky and Fay had gone into the kitchen to start dinner while Pete was watching TV, Ben was playing with Louis on the floor. Me and Olly were laid on the sofa enjoying each other’s company talking about everything and anything.

“Are we going to live at my house or yours for the time being?” Olly asked playing with my hair.

“Yours is bigger but I love my flat” I looked up to meet his gaze.

“We can keep both then, we can live at mine then if we need easy access to London we can stay at your flat” He kissed my nose. “Then we can buy a bigger house in London” He placed one of his hands on my stomach.
