- Rebecca / Becky's P.O.V-

I've been back at home with Ashton for a few days now... its weird not waking up next to Cal again. The rest of the family are coming home today... i can't believe its Christmas eve. Calum promised to come over and help put the Christmas decorations up with me... I asked Ana but she said she was late Christmas shopping and Ashton said he was going out with Luke. So i asked Calum and of course he didn't decline the invitation.

"Beck... Calums heres. I'm leaving now the decorations are in the front room , there's some more in the garage'' Ashton said

"Okay be back before five , Mum should be home by then" i called back down the stairs.

''Alright. behave yourself love birds'' 

"We will" Calum smiled

"Oh and remember to use Cond-''

''Thats enough Ashton  goodbye!!'' i blushed furiously and pushed my older brother out of the room.

"I can't believe he just said that" Calum laughed.

"Okay get too work , i'll go get the rest of the decorations'' i smiled and walked off.

*****

"Becky, come here quick!" Calum called from across the room.

"Coming ." I replied, getting up from my position on the living room floor. I had been sorting out the ornaments for the tree, but now I was chasing after what Calum had to show me. 

I walked over to him and looked at him, waiting for what he needed to show me.

"Well, what am I looking at?" I questioned.

He had a smug look on his face and I could tell he was hiding back a giggle. He nudged his head towards the ceiling and my eyes followed his, only to land on a piece of mistletoe sloppily hung from a piece of string and tape.  I smiled rolling my eyes at his antics. I tilted my head back down and took a step closer to him, wrapping my arm around his neck. Standing on my tippy toes, I pressed my lips onto Calum's softly and only for a short moment. 

He pouted in protest.

"That's all I get?" He whined, puckering his lips some more. 

"Come help me decorate the tree." I grabbed his hand, giving him a smile. 

"Anything for my love." He murmured softly into my knuckle. 

I blushed, and led him back to the living room where we started decorating the tree together. I picked up a simple silver ball ornament and found the most perfect spot for it, but it was too high for me to reach. 

"Calum, could you put this right there?" I asked him, pointing to the exact spot I wanted it in. 

"How about I let you do it?" He replied, grabbing me by the waist and lifting me up with ease. I hooked the hook onto a strand of pine needles, tapping Calum to put me down. Instead of doing what I wanted, he spun me around so I was facing him. I was a little higher than him, so he shifted me down and I instinctively wrapped my legs around his waist. 

I studied his face. He was being unusually quiet.  "What are you thinking ?" I questioned, running a hand through his hair. 

"Well, I'm just thinking about everything. Christmas is coming up and everything I could ever want is sitting right in my arms. I have a beautiful girl, a house , A family , good friends... my life is set. I'm the luckiest guy in the world. I love you Rebecca." He explained before leaning in and pressing his lips to mine. All I could do was kiss him back with everything I had. 

"Merry Christmas Cal, I love you." I whispered back against his lips. 

The kiss was short and sweet as a loud groan interrupted our little moment i pulled away and looked at Ashton.

"Your both so lovey dovey it makes me sick" Ashton fake puked , i just giggled and leaned into Calums chest. Calum chuckled as well i could feel his chest vibrating from the laugh that left his lips.

"Oh hell no  , Calum your seriously cheating on me! I find out like this on Christmas" Luke fake gasps 

"I'm sorry baby its not what it looks like" Calum plays along , making me laugh harder then ever before.

"Oh yeah... then what is this" he points too me , 

"Yeah well who is she?!" Calum says back pointing to Ana.

"Well this is awkward..." Luke chuckles

"What did i miss?" Ana asks , i just laugh harder and flop myself on to the sofa.

*****

"Are you sure you can't stay?" i pouted at Calum who was about to leave , me , Ana and the boys watched a few christmas movies before everybody 1 by 1 started to take off it was only Calum left and he said he had to go when i really wanted him to stay for dinner.

"I wish i could baby , but i have too go home i still got to wrap up presents"

"Fine.." i sighed looking down at my feet , Calum lifted my chin up too look at me

"I love you princess"  i smiled at his choice of words and pecked him on the nose , he scrunched up his eyebrows and let out a small chuckle

"You're so cute..."

"I know i am"

"Kiss me properly..."

"I would.. but you have things to wrap" i smiled teasingly and pushed him out the front door smiling. He pouted through the glass window in the door and let out a small smile when i blew him a kiss. He pretended to catch it and placed it on his heart. Simple cute gestures like that just make my heart melt. I skipped into the kitchen and gave Ashton a tight hug.

"Whoa... what's this for?" he laughed

"For being the best big brother ever and letting me be happy" i smiled

"You really love him don't you?" he asked , wrapping his arms around me

"Yeah... do you think he loves me for real or-"

"one hundred percent he loves you back."

****

The door slammed shut and a voice echoed the halls

"Anybody home?" my mother called. I got up from the sofa and ran into the hallway giving my mum a tight hug.

"Missed me then" she chuckled , i gave Harry , Lauren and John a hug also and we all made our way to the dining room to eat the delicious meal me and Ashton prepared.

"So tell me... what have we missed?" John asked , i looked over at Ashton who looked down at his plate and chuckled... thinking back to the dramatic week we've had.

"So much..."

"Ooh tell us " my mother said

"You wouldn't believe me if i tried" i laughed

"Pleasee tell us!" Lauren whined

"Fine... Well-"

Well , you know where it went from there I basically spent an hour telling my mother , step father and half siblings the drama that went on that week.

- Rebecca  

''MERRY CHRISTMAS!!'' three voices squealed , followed by two jumping bodies on my bed.

"Go away!" i mumbled

"Come on Becky its Christmas!!!" Harry whined , i opened my eyes and stared at my three siblings. Ashton was jumping up and down i swear everybody is more mature then him. I managed to force myself out of my bed and waddled down the stairs like a penguin.

"Morning honey, Merry christmas!" my mother greeted me , giving my a kiss on the cheek.

"Morning , merry Christmas!" i yawned , she smiled and kissed my other siblings wishing them a merry christmas as well.

I made my way into the living room and greeted John , my step father and laid myself down on the sofa. I took out my phone from my pajama bottoms and replied to some of the merry christmas text's one caught my eye and made me smile... Calum.

'From Calum: ''Merry Christmas princess , can't wait too see you later :) I love you xx''

Apparently every Christmas since Ashton joined the band each family host a Christmas party  , this year it was our turn which was exiting because i got to be a part of it. I quickly sent a text to Calum and joined my family on the floor ready to open presents.

To Calum: I Love you lot's & lot's i'll see you soon babe :D xoxo''

***

''Wow... thank you Mum!" i smiled and gave her a quick hug. I placed on the Pandora bracelet and smiled.

I got a few presents from everyone.. Ashton got me a photo frame with a picture of me and him when we were younger. Harry and Lauren got me a onesie,chocolates and a bottle of perfume. I got Lauren some clothes and make up and Harry tickets to a local football match , i got Ashton some new ear plugs and a gift voucher for a music store i know he likes to go to. I got mum some perfume and John some aftershave.

*****

''THEY'RE HERE" My mother shouted from down the stairs , i was currently finishing off curling my hair. I slipped into my black heels and adjusted my blackdress. I took a look in the mirror at myself one last time.

''Oh sweetheart you look beautiful" Calums mother smiled , as she and the rest of the Hoods walked through the door , being greeted by my mother and John. I smiled and thanked her , i greeted everyone and smiled as i walked over to Calum.

"You look...beautiful" he grinned

"Just beautiful?" i fake gasped and giggled.

"Beautiful...perfect...gorgeous...lovely...elegant...cute...hot...sexy shall i go on?" he winked , i just gave him another smile and kissed his soft lips.

''Ahem'' Ana said , breaking us away from the kiss

"Merry Christmas" she squealed and pulled me into a big hug , i hugged her back and my lungs almost caved in with the tightness of her hug.

"You too" i squeaked out pulling away from the hug and giving the rest of the boys hugs.

****

We all exchanged gifts as well as drinking,eating ,socializing and dancing. Calum pulled me to one side so we could exchange gifts. Me and everyone else decided to chip in and get him a new Bass guitar which he was begging for someone to get him and he was upset when his mum , dad and Mali didnt get it him little did he know that i had already brought it for him.

''Oh my god... i fucking love you!'' he squealed like a teenage girl and lifted me up twirling me in the air , i giggled and smiled happily... this was perfect he was perfect.

"I love you too" i said as he placed me back on my feet.He handed me an envelope and a box that was wrapped up beautifully. I opened the gift up first and my eyebrows knitted together when i saw what was inside.

''Calum why have you go-"

"Shh" he whispered and pointed to the envelope. I proceeded and opened the envelope...my eyes grew wide and my mouth dropped open.

"Merry Christmas beautiful" he whispered and kissed my cheek delicately.
