                                              I started to him jingle bells as I decorated the Christmas tree. Leonard let out a chuckle as he watched me from his chair with a cup of hot chocolate in his hands. 
                          "Enjoying the show?" I asked with a smile.
                          "Loving it." He said as he sent me a smirk.

                          "Well why don't you come help?" I asked as I held up the tree topper. 
                          He shook his head and put his mug down before standing up. I went to hand it to him but he bent down and picked me up. I let out a squeal as he lifted me up.
                          "Put it on top, I can't hold you up there long." He said with a laugh.
                          I hit his shoulder and smiled as I put it on top. He then put me down, but kept his hands on my waist.
                          "Hello beautiful." He said with a smirk.
                          "Hello handsome." I said as I leaned up and kissed him.
                          He smiled against my lips and pulled me closer. The next morning it was time to presents and I handed Leonard a box. 
                          "Open it." I said with a smile.
                          "Okay! Okay! I thought you were opening yours first?" He asked with a frown.
                          "Just open it and then I'll open mine." I said as I watched him.
                          He shook his head and opened it. I smiled as his eyes went wide and he looked up at me.
                          "You aren't?" He asked shocked.
                          "I am.... we are going to have a baby." I said as I sent him a smile.
                          He quickly pulled me into a deep kiss and I let out a laugh. 
                          "I love you." He said as he pulled away. 
                          "I love you too." I whispered against his lips.
                          "Merry Christmas." He said softly.
                          Time skip (six years later) 
                          I let out a sigh as I looked at the tree topper in my hand. It had been three years since Leonard had sacrificed his life and I still found myself thinking about him. 
                          "Mommy! We're home!" A voice yelled.
                          I smiled as I put the star down and walked to the front door to see my five year old son, and Mick walk in. I let out a laugh as he ran up and hugged me. 
                          "Thanks for watching him." I said as I sent Mick a smile.
                          "I gotta take care of my godchild." He said as he sent me a smile.
                          "Are you staying for Christmas? Lisa is suppose to be down?" 
                          "I don't want to intrude-"
                          "Mick, stay. You are family." I said softly.
                          He nodded his head and walked into the living room. 
                          "Uncle Mick can you help me put the tree topper on?" (S/n) asked as he held it up.
                          "Sure thing kiddo." Mick said as he picked him up. 
                          I smiled as I shook my head and watched them. 
                          "Up you go!" 
                          My son let out a laugh as Mick put him over his shoulder and lifted him up.
