Epilogue

Kaelyn looked out the window to see Chuck getting out of the car. Outside it was storming raining and she made her way quickly to the door to open it for him. Making his way inside he put his book bag down and took off his raincoat before turning to Kaelyn who stood by the door. He pulled Kaelyn to his body before kissing her passionately. Picking her up he took her to the couch and started to pull off her short silk nightgown that she was wearing.

"No, none of that now." Kaelyn warned putting a finger against his lips. "We have to decorate the tree. It was delivered today." She said as she pulled herself from under him and stood. Chuck gave a pout and Kaelyn crossed her arms giving him a smile. "Later." She said as she made her way towards the huge Christmas tree that he somehow had missed that was sitting right in front of the window in the living room.

"That tree is huge." He said as he walked to Kaelyn and put his arms around her waist as she opened the packages of light, bulbs, and ornaments that she had been buying since the stores started selling Christmas things. Slowly and softly he started platting kisses on her neck.

"Baby." She giggled before pulling away. "Come on and help me I am so excited to decorate our first tree." She said happily.

"Alright, alright." He said as he found a package of lights and started to open them. "So how do we do this?" he asked.

Kaelyn turned to him with her mouth wide open. "You have never decorated a Christmas tree?" she questioned with shock.

"No, the staff always did it." He simply said as he stood with lights hanging from his hands.

"Goodness, we did it every year home in California. It was my favorite thing as a little girl." Kaelyn said happily as she took the lights from him and started at the top of the tree stringing them around. "You can start hanging bulbs and ornaments." She suggested happily.

"You are just so excited." He laughed as he pulled a few ornaments from the box. "It's adorable." He said as he walked to her and planted a kiss on her cheek before hanging the ornament on the tree.

The couple sat on the couch together in front of the fire with a glass of wine each. Kaelyn sat her glass down after a sip and snuggled up closer to Chuck. She felt his hands run through her hair as they lay there together silently.

"Our first married Christmas." Kaelyn said happily as she turned her head up so she was looking at him.

"One of many." He said before planting a kiss on her lips.

"Of many." She said with a smile before finding herself back snuggled in his arms. She watched the fire as it crackled and she turned back to the tree with a smile thinking of all the Christmases, other holidays, and events to come for both of them together.

"I love you." She whispered.

"And I love you." He whispered back to her as he kissed the top of her head softly.
