spending the holidays with barry
a/n: hiii christmas is in a few days and thought this was a cute little blurb :) happy holidays to you all no matter what you celebrate!!! i love you stay healthy and safe <3
he never liked the holidays growing up because his family never spent it together and he never got an actual christmas growing up
so when you got together and he learned how much you loved the holidays he was a bit nervous
he was so in love with you and did everything he possibly could too make you happy so he made sure he would do the same about this
as he exhaled the smoke from his lips he grabbed his phone from the table in front of him as he saw your picture pop up on the screen
“ hi baby!” he heard your voice say as he clicked the accept button and put the phone on speaker
“hey baby girl,what’s up?” he said curios as to why you called and why you weren’t here with him
“we’ll i was wondering if you wanted to spend the holidays with me this year? an before you say anything i know you don’t like the holidays cause of your family and how it was for you growing up and if you want to spend it with just me and you for now that is fine we can do that or we don’t have to celebrate at all you just let me know what your comfortable with okay?” you said knowing he would be hesitant
“ah fuck it i’ll spend it with you and your family.” he said knowing you would never do anything to make him not feel welcome or included
“you sure?“ you said not wanting to make him uncomfortable
“yeah mama i’m sure. i love you.” he said
“i love you too b so so much!” you said as you tried to hide your excitement
“i’ll see you tomorrow so we can go christmas shopping!!” you said trying to make this barry’s actual first nontoxic christmas experience somewhat exciting and memorable
“what-i have to go shopping? babe i-” he said knowing how you lovedddd to shop
“byeee” you said before hanging up before he could protest
“ughhhh shes so lucky i love her…” barry said as he rubbed his forehead
you were their at 10am the next morning ready to pick barry up for a whole day of shopping
to be fair you brought him starbucks and food so he was happy that he didn’t have to shop and have an empty stomach
you had too drag barry out of the car when you arrived at the mall but it was definitely worth spending time with him and shopping for eachother and your family
after a long day of shopping you had curled up in bed and fell asleep listening to each others heartbeats excited for this new experience
when christmas had finally come around you both got ready having smoked a blunt that morning to try and calm barry’s nerves and headed over to your parents house to see your family
to say the least your family loved barry and he loved them
your little cousins adored him and wouldn’t stop asking him to play with them which didn’t help your constant baby fever you had with him
but your mom and dad had pulled you aside to say they were happy for you and they definitely thought that he was the one which made your nerves completely disappear
you guys had decided to spend the night at your parents house
“so what’d you think?” you said as you layed in bed together and watched the snow fall outside
“you know you and your family might be the only kooks i can actually say i like.” he said smirking down at you
“we’ll im honored and i’m sure they would be too.” you said as you leaned up and pecked his lips
“i love you so much y/n.”
“i love u too b.” you said as your ran your fingers through his hair drifting to sleep in your comfortable silence
