48 Merry Christmas Eve (1/2)

It was morning and Olivia felta little sore, she didn't want to get out of bed and decided to bring up the covers more and snuggle against the warmth she felt next to her face.”Morning.”a husky voice said, Olivia eyes shot open as she sat up.

Eli gave a small chuckle as repositioned himself.He sat up beside her and started to rub her shoulders gently as he kissed her temple, cheek and her neck.Olivia felt a shiver run down her body as Eli's lips lingered a little too long in the crook of her neck.”I can get used to this.” he whispered seductively.Olivia looked into his eyes and kissed him gently on the lips ”Me too.” she whispered back.

Suddenly there was a knock on the bedroom door ”Morning!” Samantha shouted from behind the door ”I know you had a 'special' night but can you please move your butts downstairs for some breakfast before we have to go?!”Olivia felt her whole body start to glow red as Eli slapped the palm of his hand against his forehead as he groaned.

They could hear Samantha laughing as she ran down the stairs.Eli looked at Olivia with an apologetic smile ”Next time it will be just the two of us, I promise.” he said as he kissed her lips.

....

Eli and Olivia were coming down the stairs, carrying their packed bags and tightly wrapped gifts when they suddenly heard Samantha loudly squealing ”Edmond play it again!Play it again!”

As they walked into the kitchen they could see Edmond sitting on the counter with Samantha on his lap.She was kissing Edmond so sweetly, that it stunned them both ”There I paid you so play it again!” she said happily as she pulled away from Edmond's lips.

Edmond looked like he wanted another one but obediently listened to her as he started the video on his phone.”Olivia, you came into my life with a bang, I first saw you on the train in the spring I thought you were so beautiful, I could only watch you from behind a book.I had no courage to talk to you but I would watch you from a far.”

Olivia threw a wrapped box to Edmond's head and watched as it bounced upwards.Tears were pooling in her eyes as she shouted ”You said you were gong to give us some privacy!”Samantha jumped off Edmond's lap, while Edmond got off the counter to pick up his gift off the floor.”Oh princess, when my wifey told me what he was planning to do I had to record it as a keep sake!” He said as he flashed her a toothy smile.

Samantha's hair stood on end as she wrapped her arms around herself ”Who is your wifey!” she shouted.Edmond tilted his head to her direction ”You agreed to be with me, so you are my wifey for life!” he proclaimed happily.Samantha glared at him ”I'm not that easy!You have to work hard to get me to be your wifey!” she said spat coldly as she held her head up high.

”Olivia did you hear!She didn't say no!” he shouted gleefully, the three of them just stood there dumbfounded as they looked at Edmond's happy face.

”So princess is this for me?” Edmond's eyes sparkled at he looked at the wrapped gift.Olivia puffed her cheeks and turned slightly away ”Not anymore you jerk.” Edmond started to rip the wrapping paper off the box ”Too late!It's mine now!' he declared proudly.Edmond pulled apart the box and inside was a mug, he gave her a disappointed face.

Olivia rolled her eyes.”It's a light show mug, look you sync it to your phone and play your music... ta-da it shows you different displays to the beet of your music.”Edmond still looked unimpressed ”Thanks...” he muttered.Olivia laughed as she gave her gift to Samantha ”Merry Christmas!” she said cheerfully as Samantha pulled out the mug ”I got one too?”

Olivia took the mug from her hand and grabbed Edmond's, she gently brought them close together and proudly revealed her real gift.They all watched as two halves of a heart moved across the mug till they meet in the middle.The heart started beating as fireworks spread outwards.”Their couple's mugs!” she said with a big grin.

Edmond snatched the mugs back and started to replay the same scene over and over again.He was positively glowing with happiness when he gave his thanks again while Samantha turned crimson.
