Aris POV:

It's been a few weeks since the beach surprise and me an Justin have been so good, we're back to old times and we've even started talking about wedding plans. Right now though our main focus is Christmas and what we're gonna do for it. We're running out of time to plan and it's stressing me, it's currently 3am and I'm on the laptop while sipping the rosé we had left in the fridge. Justin's in bed he went to bed hours ago. I'm looking for places we can go or stay over Christmas, since he always surprises me I think it's time for me to surprise him. I find a cabin and click into the details reading them

Me*to myself*: 3 bedroom...hot tub...

I'm so engrossed in my find I don't hear Justin come down the stairs and stand in the living room doorway in just his boxers rubbing his eyes and yawning a sleepily

Justin: Wh-what are you doing why are you still up

I quickly close the laptop

Me: Uh...online shopping, can't sleep

Justin: What's wrong baby why can't you sleep?
Me: Nothing, I'm fine just not sleepy yet

He comes over and sits with me half asleep

Justin*yawning*: C-come to bed baby I want cuddles

I kiss his cheek

Me: I will baby, go keep the bed warm I'll be up in a sec

He nods getting up and walks sleepily back up the stairs, he'll be back asleep in 10 minutes but he is right I do need to go to bed. I finish my wine and open the laptop again, close the webpage shutting down the laptop and locking the house up turning the lights off.

I head upstairs as I hear Justin's soft snores and smirk, I head into the bathroom and brush my teeth. I go into the bedroom and undress putting my shorts and pyjama vest top on getting into bed. Justin feels me get into bed and stretches his arm around me and pulls me into him. I smile and wonder how I got so lucky to have the life I do, like I was the little nerdy school girl who got partnered with the bad boy for a project. Like this wasn't meant to happen...but I'm beyond happy it did, I'm happier I've ever been in my life. I guess the universe had my back and knew I needed someone like Justin in my life to bring out the best version of me.
I drift off to sleep with all these happy thoughts in my head.

I get waken up slowly by Justin leaving soft kisses on my face and body, I smile and open my eyes.

Justin: Good morning my beautiful Queen
Me: Good morning my handsome King

He kisses me passionately and I kiss him back the same way. We kiss all the time, but this time it was different it was leading somewhere, he starts kissing my neck. Yup it's definitely leading somewhere, I smile and bite my lip happily letting Justin carry on...I guess this really is a good morning...
-
We both head downstairs about an hour later after we both shower...separately and get dressed. We go into the kitchen and I look at the clock, 11:30am

Me: Wow I didn't realise it was that late
Justin: Time flies when you're having fun

He winks then smirks, I giggle

Me: Breakfast?
Justin: Sure

I start making pancakes while Justin gets the rest of the stuff out like cream, strawberries, blueberries, syrup and Nutella.

Justin: Need help beautiful?
Me: No no I'm good thank you baby

I plate up the pancakes and sit at the breakfast bar while Justin gets us drinks and then sits with me while we start eating.

Justin: Hey babe, have you thought about what you want for Christmas?

I look at him

Me: Honestly? I don't want anything I was thinking about this last night. I'm literally the happiest I've ever been
Justin: Me too...but that's not helping me

We both laugh

Me: I promise you don't need to buy me anything I have everything I need and could ever wish for

He smiles and kisses the side of my head as we carry on eating.

Justin: I love you beyond words
Me: I love you beyond words too baby. Hey what do you wanna do today?
Justin: Uh the guys uh said they're gonna shoot a few hoops in the park an I uh
Me: You can go baby it's fine you don't need my permission, we've already had an amazing morning
Justin: Are you sure?!

I giggle at his excitement

Me: Yes I'm sure babe
Justin: You're so amazing!

He finishes his pancakes and runs upstairs changing into shorts and a Lakers top and comes back down. I finish up my breakfast and clean our plates while Justin gets his sneakers on.

Justin: So what are you gonna do today?

I shrug

Me: Idk prob just chill
Justin: Okay baby, I'll have my cell on so if you need me just call! I'll be back later and I'll cook you a romantic meal

I smile

Me: Okay baby

He comes over to me and kisses me, I kiss him back

Justin: I love you
Me: I love you too have fun

Justin smiles as he grabs his bag and leaves, I know it seems like he's only being sweet and loving because he wants to hang with the boys but it's not like that at all. He genuinely means everything we do together and everything he does for me, he's the best fiancée in the world.
Plus I'm kinda happy he's gonna be out all day it will give me more time to carry on looking for the perfect cabin for the holidays and get it booked. It's going to be an amazing holiday just us, the snow and a cracking log fire.

Perfect.
