Merry Christmas

The snow is falling lightly outside the window as it is now December. Feeling a bit chilly, Krystal quickly searches for her blanket to cover herself more tightly. She mutters under her breath while she’s resting on the pillow, “Stupid Amber, suddenly have to leave for work in Canada. Why does it have to be this month of this year?”

She’s mad and grumpy just because Christmas is right around the corner. Not only just Christmas matters, but also their 2 year anniversary. It is on the same date as Christmas. Krystal, who isn’t even sleepy, stays in bed for hours, refuses to get up. In her thought, she’s just alone in the house, so why bother getting up. She’s so lazy. After all, there’s no work today because of snow bound in her neighborhood. After quite a long time, her phone buzzes, telling her that she received a message from Amber.

‘Sweetie, dt be sad. Dt stay in bed and skip breakfast like that. It’s a bad habit, you know. I promise to be back on time for Christmas. Alright? Love you!’

Pouting at the text, she can’t help herself smiling. This tomboy knows her too well and treats her so well that she is spoiled already. She loves how Amber takes good care of her even if she has to be lectured a lot by her. Amber would dry her hair (sometimes washes her long hair for her too), create diet plans for her, cook and make good yummy food and drink for her. Everything Amber does is just so heart-touching that Krystal hates to be apart from her beloved girlfriend, not even for a day.

She finally pushes herself off the bed reluctantly, making way straightly to the bathroom. Quite surprisingly, she found a sticky note on the mirror:

Shower well!

I’m watching you xP

Krystal giggles at Amber’s playful note. At last, that girl managed to bring a smile on Krystal’s face. After a long good shower, while putting on clothes, Krystal heard the doorbell went off. At the joint of excitement, she was expecting Amber to be actually home. There might be a miracle that Amber’s works were cancelled. She rushed down the stairs at full speed, opened the door, and gasped.

It’s her sister, holding a box of well-wrapped cute present.

“Oh, Jess…It’s only you,” she mumbled disappointedly to herself.

“I suppose you were expecting you llama?” Jessica asked with a smile and entered the house casually, leaving Krystal to close the door.

“How do you know she’s not home?” Krystal asked, bewildered as she seat herself next to her sister on the sofa.

“She called me to stay with you for the meantime. And oh, she left you a gift, too,” Jessica passed the small box to Krystal.

As soon as the younger girl touches the box, she tears it open, eager to know what’s inside. Pulling out of the box is a knitted scarf from which anyone can tell instantly it’s not well knitted. It is a attached with a note, saying:

I know it’s not that good cuz

you know I rarely knit, but I hope

you love it. I guarantee it’s cozy.

I chose the best yarn. *wink*

Amber once again brought a smile to Krystal’s disappointed face earlier. Seeing the smiley sister she has, Jessica purse her lips at their lovey dovey notes and gift, then walks up to the kitchen to boil some water for hot chocolate. It’s freezing cold even inside the house with a heater.

“My dear sister, want some hot choco?” she asked in a fake long sweet tone.

“Yes please, my lovely sister!” exclaimed Krystal in response while putting on the cozy thick gray scarf around her neck, grinning hugely.

“I’m so happy for you two,” Jessica returned with 2 mugs of hot chocolate, “Just so sweet and loving.”

“Thanks, sis!” Krystal giggled. She surely agreed. Amber and her are so sweet together. They rarely fight and when they do, it’s because of jealousy (usually when one of them is being too intimate with another person, and that person is probably Amber because if it's Krystal, it doesn't count.)

“Did she tell you when she’s back?” Krystal asked.

“No. She doesn’t even tell you. How can she possibly tell me?” Jessica rolled her eyes at her sister.

“Yeah, I hope she will be home by Christmas,” said Krystal before sipping her chocolate, thinking that it will be lonely without Amber’s around. Amber’s a detective, and cases she usually hold are related to drugs and illegal weapons which is extremely dangerous; however, she finds it exciting most of the time. She’s a kind of person who is so stern yet sweet to the point that most girls can’t resist, including Krystal, a very picky person.

While she’s watching TV with Jessica, she just remembers something important that has to be done right away.

“Sis!!! I need to buy Amber a present! Come on, we have to get going now!” Krystal quickly tighten the knitted scarf, put on mitten, and dragged Jessica out.

After a whole day shopping, she got a lot of clothes...
for herself because they were all on sale. She also got 12 pairs of socks for Amber (because Amber always loses one side of sock every time she came back from the mission) and a leather jacket (because it’s newly out for the season and Krystal would like Amber to wear it).

“If I hadn’t known Amber, I’d thought she’s a sock eater or something,” Jessica blurted out while sitting in a restaurant for dinner with Krystal.

“Haha, I would think so!” Krystal chuckled, “and you know, she doesn’t mind wearing mismatch socks. She said no one will know!”

“Such a weird llama. It’s still a mystery how a picky person like you love her. I hope she didn’t cast a spell on you.”

Days passed and Krystal got occasion texts from Amber, telling her that she’s doing fine, she misses her, and the mission will be over soon. It’s the 22^nd today, snow fall heavily, and Krystal is waiting for Amber anxiously. No calls or texts from her lover for 3 days in the row already, so Krystal’s beginning to get worried. Sitting in the office, she keeps glancing at the phone because she has already dealt with her last client. By anyhow, she’s a financial consultant whose consulting skills have never fail any clients before, and she’s very well-known in business world. On the same day, she received a call to Switzerland for consulting as one of the hotels there is facing a financial crisis, a serious one, and needed her there urgently.

Krystal was rather sad, but it’s her job, so she has to deal with it. She texted Amber right away after preparing her luggage:

Baby, how are you? Take good care of yourself, ok? I’m going to Switzerland, but idk when my work is finished. Hopefully, we can spend Christmas together. I love you! <3 nbsp="">

On the plane flying to the snowy country, Amber has finally replied back:

Have a safe trip, honey! There seems to have a problem here too.

Need to have high awareness. Luv u too!

Reading the message made Krystal’s heart sank because when Amber says ‘problem’, it usually takes a month to actually solve it. That means no Christmas and New Year celebration, causing Krystal to sobs silently until she arrived the destination.

24^th December

Krystal has already finished her duty and solved the hotel’s financial problem efficiently. It was only a matter of finding a black mold. She’s only waiting for Amber’s text and/or call because she can’t call Amber when she’s on duty. She doesn't want to be a burden. It’s only 11 pm when Krystal decided to sleep and maybe fly back home the next day. In the dark quiet room, Krystal is sleepinguneasily when the door swung open. The person tried to make less sound as possible, walking carefully to Krystal when then he pulls out a gun and points at Krystal’s back.

Krystal woke up instantly.

“You’re under arrest! For falsifying the financial report of this hotel,” a very husky tough voice said.

“I didn’t falsify anything! I only gave suggestions!” exclaimed Krystal in also a tough voice.

“You know… you can just spend a night with me and I’ll make sure you’re free, innocent,” he trails the gun lower to Krystal’s behind.

“F*ck off,” Krystal shouted, being aware of the situation, she quickly turn around to attack the stranger in the neck, but he defenses just in time. Amber has taught Krystal martial arts before, so that she can protect herself. Now they are both standing on the bed in the darkness, trying to attack one another. Krystal tried to throw punches at the man, but he easily dough them. It seems as if that man knows what’s coming from Krystal. Finally he entangles Krystal’s leg, leaving her off balance and fall hard onto the bed with the guy pinning her from above.

“Merry Christmas, beautiful,” he laughed evilly before lowering his face toward Krystal as she stays still. She’s gathering energy to push him away when he was distracted. At the same time, she’s wishing for Amber to come and save her right now, but that just hopeless.

“Aww…aren’t you gonna try to struggle and get out of my grip?” the voice changed from a husky, harsh man voice to Amber dorky voice.

“Amber!!” cannot decide whether to be mad or happy at Amber’s attack, Krystal just shouted and smiled a bit afterward, “how did you have a man voice?!”

“Haha, secret, and I’m sorry to play silly like that, but I must say you learnt to fight very well. After all, you learnt from the best,” Amber pecked Krystal lips.

“I hate you!” Krystal pouted, and Amber just kissed the pout away.

“Merry Christmas, sweetheart, and happy anniversary!” said Amber as she pulled Krystal to sit straight facing her, “it’s half pass 12, I want to kiss you under the mistletoe.” 

“But there’s no mistletoe here,” Krystal replied sadly. Last year, they kissed under the mistletoe. It was romantic.

“Wait,” Amber quickly turned on the lights and pull out 2 hair bows from her backpack, “we got mistletoes right here!”

In her hands, hold 2 hair bows that is designed by mistletoes intertwined beautifully. She put the bow on Krystal’s hair and as well on her own. Smiling at one another, Amber leans in slowing, pressing her lips on the younger girl’s, kissing her gently and sweetly. Soon, she grabbed Krystal’s face to have to more access, kissing her more deeply and passionately, saving all the taste until they need to exhale some oxygen.

“I love you,” they both said in unison while staring and smiling at each other.
