Ethan's POV

As I was walking back home, I passed by a small store. It looked like a little cottage.

In the window were two wolf plush. One was all black with dark blue eyes. And the other was white with light pink eyes.

I went inside the store.

"Excuse me sir, but how much are those wolf plushies?" I asked the old man behind the counter.

"Oh those. You don't want those. They've been here for almost a year now." He said.

"Then they're perfect. Now can you please tell me how much they are?"

"Hmm. They're free all they've been doing all this time was collecting dust. So you can take them if you'd like, no charge." The man said with a smile.

"Thank you, sir!" I exclaimed.

I went back over to the window and took the two wolves.

Well Christmas is in a few days now. Why not give him an early present. I went over to the woods across the street from the small store.

When I decided I was deep enough so no one would see me, I stopped.

I placed the wolves on the ground and called for my powers. A small, red glow started to radiate from my eyes.

I kneeled down on the ground, touched the black wolfs head, and whispered a spell to it.

"Take this one and make it live for I am the demon prince." After I said this the eyes of the wolf started to glow brightly.

I did the same to the white wolf.

It would take a few days for the transformation to complete.

Exhausted from the spells in my weakest form, I just decided to teleport home.

I landed with a thud on the hardwood floor.

"Gah.... Fuck." I said.

Iris came running down the stairs.

"Ethan you need to go see Maroon he's freaking out in his sleep. Keeps screaming your name."

I gave the bag with the two wolves to her. "Take this to your house. I'll come and pick them up on Christmas Eve's night."

She nodded her head.

I ran up stairs taking two at a time. I burst into Maroon's room. He was, like Iris said, screaming my name. It broke my heart.

I quickly went over to him and grabbed his hand. "Shhh. It's okay. I'm here. I'm right here."

Hearing my voice he visibly relaxed.

"Hah- Ethan.... Don't leave me." He said holding my hand tightly.

"I'll never leave you." I said lying on his bed next to Maroon. I wrapped my arms around his smaller body with my head on top of his.

He snuggled up into me, sleeping peacefully. I kissed his forehead, feeling tired

"Goodnight Maroon."

I let sleep overtake me.

Maroon's POV

I woke up feeling warm and comfortable. I opened my eyes, being shocked by my view.

Ethan was lying right next to me with his arms wrapped around me tightly. He was sleeping peacefully. His mouth slightly open, when he breathed out, his breathe hit me like a winters day. His dark hair laying carelessly around his perfect face.

It was a sight to be seen.

I was so caught up in My inspection, that I didn't notice I way leaning into Ethan, just inches from his face. I quickly moved back, careful not to wake him, and went back to looking.

But sadly it was all shattered by my phone ringing.

I grabbed it from off the bedside table, and answered.

"What?" I said quite annoyed.

"That is no way to say good morning to your best friend!" Iris said in the phone.

"I'm sorry, Iris. And Good morning."

"Good that's better. Anyway get dressed. We'er going Christmas shopping!" She said excitedly.

Knowing it was futile to argue I said ok.

"I'll be there in 30 minuets." She said and hung up.

I sighed.

"So you're going out?"

I almost screamed. I turned my head to see a fully awake Ethan, looking at me.

I nodded still to startled to talk.

He nodded. He started to get up and out of the bed. "Okay good. 'Cause I have to go out as well." Ethan said stretching.

What a nice view.

I got up and went over to my drawer, getting my clothes, and headed to the bathroom to shower.

After my shower I went down stairs and grabbed an apple.

Ethan came down looking sexier than ever.

He was wearing a grey shirt, some black jeans, and a pair of black combat boots.

"Okay I'm leaving. Make sure you lock the doors ok?" He said going over and grabbing the keys.

I nodded, fiddling with the necklace Ethan gave me before I fell unconscious.

He came over to me and hugged me.

"And remember if you need me, call." He pulled away, too soon in my opinion, and left.

A few minuets later, there was loud honking outside.

"Let's go bitches!" Yelled Iris.

I grabbed my keys and phone and went outside, making sure I locked the doors.

I got into the car, then we were off, blasting three days grace and linkin park the whole way to the mall.

Time Skip

"I can't find anything!" I yelled in defeat. We have been at the mall for about 3 hours, yet I couldn't find anything for Ethan.

"We just haven't been to the right store yet. It's okay we'll find the perfect gift for him." Iris said trying to comfort me. "Here." She said stopping and turning me around to face her. "Don't look for what you think he'd like. Don't look at all. When you see something, you will know that that's the gift for you, okay?"

I nodded. We went into a store. It was a small store, with not many costumers.

I walked into the back looking at what they had. That's when I saw it. It was a black, sleek long sword. The blade was a deep black with a red line going along its blade.

It was beautiful. Strong yet graceful, just like Ethan.

I went back to the register and placed the sword on the counter.

"I would like this please."

I paid for the sword, told Iris we were done shopping, and went home.

I placed the newly bought sword under my bed and smiled.

I can't wait to see reaction when I give him this.

Time Skip

Tonight was Christmas Eve. Ethan said he was going to pick something up.

I stayed at home and decided to make some sugar cookies with Iris, she did most of the work, since I can barely cook. Which, in my opinion, we went a little over bored.

After we were done, we ended up making 3 batches of sugar cookies, 2 batches of macaroons, 1 three layered red velvet cake (Ethan's favorite), and 2 Oreo pies.

And let me tell you the kitchen was a mess.

"We really need to clean this up before Ethan gets back." I said looking at the mess of a kitchen.

"Yeah..." Iris replied.

•****•

We were finally done. That took forever.

Iris and I went to the living room, and flopped down on the couch in a tangled mess. Then we let sleep over take us.

Ethan's POV

When I came back home with the wolf pups in a carrier, the smell of sweet baked goods hit me like a truck.

I sniffed out the wonderful smell of my favorite, red velvet cake, and ended up in the kitchen, surrounded by cakes and cookies up the wazoo.

Heaven.

I went into the living room to find Maroon and Iris asleep on the couch looking like a game of twister.

I smiled.

I picked Maroon up, careful not to wake the two up, and carried him up stairs and into bed.

After, I went back down stairs and put a blanket on Iris.

When I was finished with the dou, I went back over to the two wolf pups in the carrier, they were asleep as well. I put them under the tree and went to bed as well.

•****•

A heavy load was bouncing up and down on top of me.

"Ethan!! Wake up its Christmas!!" Screamed a familiar voice.

I groans and pushed her off of me and the bed itself.

"Hey that was mean. I'm gonna go get Maroon then you'd wake up." Iris said. I heard the sound of running.

Suddenly a much heavier load fell on me and started doing what Iris was doing the first time.

I grabbed both of the waker-uppers by the back of their shirts, slowly sat up, and gave them both a death glare. They both looked terrified.

I laughed. "Alright I'm up. Now let's go open some presents."

•****•

We finished opening most of the presents.

I went over to the back of the tree, took the carrier, and handed it to Maroon.

"Did you get me a puppy?!" He asked.

All I did was smile.

He opened it, and gasped.

He pulled the two pups from out of the carrier.

Maroon hugged them, as they started locking his face all over.

"Thank you Ethan. Thank you so much." Maroon said looking at me with giant smile plastered on his face.

"So what are you gonna name them?" Iris asked taking the white pup from Maroon's arms.

"Hmmm. Oh I know! This one will be Fell." He said pointing at the black one.

"And her name will be Skylar!" Maroon said pointing at the one in Iris's arms.

"Their perfect." I said sitting next to Maroon.

He smiled, then suddenly, he put Fell in my arms, and ran upstairs. A few seconds later he came back hiding something behind his back.

He went over to me and brought a sheathed sword from behind his back, giving it to me while taking Fell out of my arms.

I looked at the sword in surprise, unsheathing it. I gave a few quick slashes through the air, smiling.

"Wait put on the jacket I got for you!" Iris exclaimed.

I put it on, turning for everyone to see.

"You look like Dante from Devil May Cry 5!" Maroon giggled.

We all burst out laughing.

Maroon came over and hugged me. "There's one more present I have for you." He said in my ear.

"Hm? And what would that be?"

"This." He replied, connecting our lips together. He pulled back smiling up at me with a blush on his cheeks.

I smiled back at him. "This is indeed the best Christmas ever." I said grabbing around Maroon's waist, pulling him closer to me, and connecting our lips together in a deep passionate kiss.
