Hey guys! Sorry for the delay on my Christmas series , I was moving this weekend so I was pretty busy. Here's part 1 of my 12 days of Christmas :)

                                                                                              ***

It is officially December, and while you wanted to put the Christmas tree up back at the start of November, Mac made you wait until after Thanksgiving.  However, the two of you had missions back to back so you were just now starting your Christmas decorating.

Everything was up so far, all except the tree, saving the best for last.

While Mac was setting up the tree, you were pulling out all of your ornaments. This year was a special one, being the first Christmas spent together after you had moved in with Mac. The two of you had been dating a little over a year when he had asked you to move in. Mac being who he was alone was enough for you to say yes.

"Do you think we have enough ornaments between the two of us?" You asked, going through his now as well.

Mac huffed as he tried to maneuver his way out from behind the tree that he had sat in the corner. "It should be fine babe, if not we can always go out and buy some more or I could make some?"

"Uh uh no way MacGyver." You said with a disapproving tone while using his whole last name "You know the rules, you are only allowed one paperclip ornament on our tree and that's it. That was the deal, I am not going for a paperclip theme here."

Mac laughed in response while wrapping his arms around you from behind "Aw babe your no fun." He whispered in your ear before giving it a kiss "What I meant though was I can make other kinds of ornaments, not just out of paperclips. I don't know if you know this about me but I tend to get a little creative with random objects." He said teasingly as he smirked against the skin of your neck.

Turning around in his arms you wrapped your arms around his neck "Oh I do know but I am not sure if that's the aesthetic I want for our tree. Although I guess I could always just put them on in the back, behind the tree out of eyesight."

Mac gave you a pretend offend face "Hey!" 

You just smiled before leaning in to kiss him on the lips "Just kidding baby, but not really, help me decorate the tree." Dropping your arms from around his neck you turned back around to dig out the ornaments. 

Mac smirked to himself before reaching a hand out to smack you on the butt before reaching for an ornament. Feeling the impact made you squeal as you shot daggers at Mac "Hey!" Mac just laughed at your reaction before sending a wink your way.

                                                                                                   ***  

Just when you were about to decorate the tree you had noticed one of the light's bulbs was not working before you even put it on the tree. "Damnit!"

Mac jumped at your sudden outburst while trying to untangle one of the many knots in the lights "What's wrong?"

You looked over at him with a pout "One of the bulbs burned out and isn't lighting up." 

Mac suddenly dropped what he was doing and gave you a smile "Oh baby, I can fix that, easy." 

Perking up you handed it over to him with a surprised smile "Really?"

"Come on now, you act as if you just met me. Where is your faith?" He said while grabbing the lights and then reaching over to kiss your cheek "I got this. Be right back." Then he was up and heading into his room.

You just sat there with the biggest smile on your face, amazed by the man that you had fallen in love with.

Within twenty minutes Mac was back, and sure enough that bulb was lit "All done, it just needed some new wiring." 

Letting out a laugh you watched as he started to hang the lights on the tree "And you just happen to have some extra wires laying around?" Saying it sarcastically but Mac just looked at you as if that would be obvious "Well yeah, why wouldn't I?" 

That's when you just laughed it off and got up to start helping Mac with the lights. Then next was the ornaments until the only thing left was to put the star on the tree. Just as you went to go find a step ladder Mac took you by surprise as he put his head between your legs and lifted you up.

"Mac! What are you doing? I am too big for this!" You laughed, trying to now brace yourself on the mans shoulders.

Mac just laughed while ignoring your comment "You worry about the star and I'll worry about you, your fine baby I've got you. There's no way in hell I am dropping my lady." He said while holding onto your legs.

You just rolled your eyes at his cheesiness before reaching over to the tree to put on the star "Is it straight?" 

Mac stepped back still holding onto you "Looks good to me."

"Ok great now put me down before my head hits the ceiling." Since you had been hunched down a little in order from that happening.

Mac just laughed as he set you back down with ease before pulling you in for a kiss "I love you."

Even after all this time Mac could easily make you blush "I love you too." Returning the kiss before stepping back "So I guess we are all done for now? What do you want for dinner?"

Mac held onto your hand before you had a chance to walk off "Wait I uh, well there's something I want to put on the tree first. Something I made for the tree." 

Rolling your eyes playfully "Mac we have already talking about this, no more paperclips on our tree."

"No it's not that I uh, well it's something I made for you." Mac then walked over to the end table next to the couch and pulled something out of the drawer before walking back to you.

When he handed it to you, your eyes immediately began to tear up "Mac?" It was a cube shaped clear ornament with pictures of the two of you on every side. But not just one picture on each side, a whole ass collage on every single side. 

"There were a lot of pictures of us but I managed to get every single one of them on there. Even the top and bottom." Mac said, proud of what he had managed to accomplish.

Looking over at him after taking in the ornament you smiled "This must have taken you forever."

Mac just waved a hand, shaking his head "It was nothing. Besides..." Pausing to pull you into his arms "You are so worth it." 

You couldn't help but let a tear fall before pulling him close as well before kissing him on the lips deeply. When the two of you pulled away you smirked against his lips "Ya know, for a sweet gift like this I think someone might be getting laid tonight."

Mac couldn't help but let out a laugh before turning serious again with a seductive look in his eyes "I will take any opportunity given to be able to be with you." Giving you another passionate kiss.

Once the ornament was placed on the tree the two of you practically ran to the bedroom, and you rewarded him all night for the wonderful gesture.
