The Unexpected.

Eve

December 24th, 2015.

"Babe, I'm home!" I said loudly as I walked into the house.

The dogs were barking like crazy.

"Please, shut up."

I walked my way upstairs and there was my beautiful baby.

I just got off work early, and it was Christmas Eve. I wanted to drink hot coco with the fan on while watching holiday movies.

"Hey beautiful." He shook his hair out his face.

"Hey. I'm off work. And I am tired." I frowned.

"Poor baby. Come here."

I kicked off my crocs and crawled into bed.

He played in my hair as 'Grandma got ran over by a reindeer' played.

I just wanted to sleep.

But nope.

Brandon came upstairs with Shannon.
"Guys get up."

"What?"

"Were going to the mall and you guys are coming to."

Mall was all I heard. I got up and out on my boots.

Ryan follwed my steps.

······

We went to Florence mall. And my oh my was this mall nice!

I took in all the store logos and it excited me. My card was burining a hole in my wallet.

But I already got all of his gifts. But he didn't know that.

······
We traveled from American Eagle to Urban Outfitters to Rue 21. Asking each other if we would wear this or that.

(He has bad taste in girls clothes.)

Who ever knew he was so picky?

Every short I pointed out his response would be, "No. It's not soft enough."

After an hour later out bellies grumbled.

He looked over at me.

"Are you hungry?"

Pfft. Am I hungry?

"Yea I can eat." I shrugged.

"Pretzel?"

My mouth was already drooling.

"Yes."

We walked over to the pretzel stand, "Hey can I have a large salted pretzel with cheese please? Oh and can you make sure it's not by any cinnamon pretzels when you make it?" Ryan asked.

My heart fluttered.

This boy is always so concerned about my allergies. More than I am most times.

········
Just as we were about to leave he tugged me towards Victoria Secret.

"Why are we going in here?" I asked.

"Pick something out."

My eyes widen. I never had Victoria Secret before.

I pulled him aside.

"Play. Two things. One. You never wanted to go in here with me before. And two. Do they even have my size?"

He shrugged. Ignoring my first question.

We wandered around looking at these garments they were on display.

Everything was so cute. And more importantly expensive.

"Well.What do you like?" I asked after going over the racks, hoping he'd indicate the cheaper ones.

"Well." He smirked. He bent down and got pulled out the drawers, pulling out a navy and sky blue bra.

"Is that my size?"

He nodded.

It was cute.

I got down there with him and searched as well.

I didn't find any in my size that wasn't beige.

Ew. Beige.

Ryan wandered and found a white, black,pink and green one that had snowflakes and PINK written on it.

I smiled at his choices, "Okay ready?" I asked.

"Nope. Pick out a night gown as well." He smiled goofingly.

This guy.
