With this being Bryce’s first Christmas home in what seemed to be forever, he was going all out. From baking cookies with his roommate, all the way to watching Christmas movies on Zoom with his sister, he felt some sort of peace this holiday season. But there was really only one person who he wanted to spend the holiday with, and that was his girlfriend. He knew the two were almost complete opposites when it came to the holiday season, and for good reason; she never got to experience a true, traditional holiday season — at least until now. Sneaking out of bed early, he pulled out the prelit tree that he had somehow managed to smuggle into the beach house. He wanted this to be a nice Christmas for her, and in his mind the first way to do that was to decorate this tree. In his mind, when he thought about it too much, he had been spending too much time with Ryan. He had just finished decorating the tree, putting the star on the top and beginning to clean up when he heard Amber-Jade coming down. “Why, good morning, sleeping beauty.” He greeted with a small chuckle. “Before you say anything, I know you’re not that big on the holiday’s, and normally I wouldn’t be either…but this is my first Christmas home in years and I refuse to let you spend it alone. So, I hope this pathetic looking tree brings you the upmost holiday cheer.” He babbled along, his words coming out in a joking manner. After he was done speaking, he walked over towards the redhead and wrapped his arms around her shoulders, bringing her in close as he leaned down and pressed a gentle kiss on her lips. “Merry Christmas, Amber-Jade.” @amberjade-rhodes
