(21) In Your Arms

Mary

"So Clarissa called me today," I inform Justin as we lay on his bed, fully clothed, recovering from another one of our grueling make out sessions.

He looks down at me as I run my index finger along the Believe tattoo on his lower arm. "Oh yeah? What'd she say?" he asks.

I wrap my arms around his torso. "Well first off, she called me Michaela."

He chuckled. "Well at least she gets the first letter right."

I shake my head with annoyance. "Anyway, she said that she booked me a shoot in Aspen."

He smiles reassuringly. "Aspen, how fancy."

"Not really. I mean it's for a travel brochure. How completely lame is that? And besides, it's on Christmas Eve. Like it seems like that woman only likes booking me on holidays." I rant, earning another chuckle form him.

"What? It's not funny." I slap his arm.

He tightens his grip on my shoulder. "You're so cute when you ramble." he points out."

I cover my face for a second, trying to hide my blush but I know it's no use because he knows me too well to think I'm doing anything otherwise.

"But seriously, how am I gonna stand being away from you on Christmas when I literally just got you?"

He brings my palm to his hand and kisses it. "Why don't I go with you?"

I look at him. "Wouldn't that be kind of suspicious? I mean this isn't the first 'work trip' you've come with me on."

He shakes his head. "No way. Your mom will be all over it. Just tell her I'm going over there to protect you from all those overly horny ski instructors."

I giggle. "Is that just an excuse or are you really going over there to do that?"

He shrugs. "A little bit of both, I guess."

I laugh. "And your sure Scooter would be ok with you taking the time off of recording?"

"Sure. I mean I'm sure he'd want to spend time with the ones he loves on Christmas as well. And besides, it'll give me a chance to give you your present the day of."

I reach up and stroke his cheek with my hand. "As far as I'm concerned you are my Christmas present."

He leans down and places a soft kiss on my lips. "I love you." He declares.

I smile lazily. "Mmm, say it again."

He grins whilst turning over, plopping me under him on the bed, making me squeal slightly as I find myself engulfed in the power of his strong arms.

"I love you." He kisses my cheek.

"I love you." He moves down to my jaw.

"I love you." He proceeds to work on my neck.

I sigh. I'll never be able to hear it enough.

Justin

"Alright dad, I love you too. Bye." I hang up with him and continue my action of lighting the candles around the dimly lit Aspen cabin that me and Mary are staying at.

It's really too bad she had to go straight from the airport to her photoshoot, I really wanted to spend that extra time with her. But it's quite alright, because at least now I'll have time to prepare.
