Her Little White Lie (BWWM Romance) (9 page)

I closed my eyes as he kissed my lips and lay on top of me on our enormous bed.

“I was wrong,” I said.

“Wrong?”

He looked at me, puzzled.

“Yes, I wanted to experience Christmas like a real family would. I pictured the tree, the bird, all that food and drink and a great big group of people sitting around, singing carols and telling jokes. Then everyone arguing about who was going to take on doing the dishes before they all got too drunk to bother. That's what I thought it was all about.”

“Oh yeah?”

“Yeah, but this is what it's all about, just being with the one you love. Even if we were in a cave right now, I'd be happy.”

Mikey rolled off me and onto his back and looked up at the ceiling.

“What is it,” I said leaning up on his chest.

“You know that Christmas you just described, with the food, the drink, telling jokes and getting drunk?”

“Yes?”

“Well you just described the typical Christmas day at my house back in Boston. I was kinda hoping, you know, that if we made it to next Christmas without killing each other, that maybe, just maybe you might want to come and spend it with my family.”

“Mikey,” I beamed down at him, “I thought you'd never ask.”

He rolled on top of me and kissed me again. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer. We'd make it to next Christmas, I was sure of that.
