Your boyfriend, Josh, had been begging you to go snowboarding with him for years. Every winter since you’ve known him, he goes snowboarding with his family or his friends. Since the two of you started dating, his one hope and dream was that you tried it out one day with him. After years of excuses and refusal, you couldn’t say no any longer, and made the trip up to the mountains with him this winter. The two of you were spending a few days here, deciding to make a nice trip out of the occasion.

“I cannot believe that you dragged me out here,” you say to Josh as you start to put on the snowboarding gear he brought for you.

“Well, it only took me years to do,” he teases at you while putting on his own gear, “Don’t worry, I’m a great teacher.”

“Yeah, you better be,” you huff and stare at him, but are met with a warm kiss on the cheek.

“C’mon, let’s go,” he says to you while grabbing your boards.

The lodge is close to everything on site, so the walk to the chair lift is quick. You struggle getting onto the chair, but Josh helps settle you in.

“It’s pretty up here,” you say, admiring the view.

“Mhm,” Josh quietly replies as he puts his arm around you, urging you to rest your head on his shoulder, which you eagerly do.

The ride up the mountain isn’t too long, just under 10 minutes. When you make it up there, Josh helps you get off and the pair of you walk to a desolate area where Josh begins explaining the basics and helping you into your board.

After Josh finishes his explanation, he helps you put on your board and get onto your feet. He stays parallel facing you, also on his board.

“Okay, so keep your knees bent and we can start moving,” he says to you.

“Josh do not let go of my hand,” you frantically yell to him.

“Don’t worry, I won’t,” he promises.

It takes you a few seconds, but you finally begin moving and make some distance. A smile appears on your face and you’re proud of the progress that you’ve made, even though it’s only a little.

“There you go, you got it!” Josh cheers you on, “I think you can do it without me.”

He gives you a little smile and slowly lets go of your hand. For a few seconds, you’re doing well on your own. Then, you hit a rough patch of snow and crash into the ground. You hear Josh somewhat of an “oof” from behind you while he rushes to your side.

“You okay,” he says with worry in his face.

“I’m okay,” you laugh, which gives him the okay to laugh back at you, “this is actually really fun. I’m glad you finally dragged me out here.”

“I am too.”

He helps you up and the two of you go back to what you were doing before you fell. The two of you are at this for a while and it’s beginning to grow dark.

“Let’s start heading in,” Josh says to you, “You did a good job today. I think that calls for some hot chocolate.”

“Sounds good to me,” you say back while giving him a kiss on the cheek.

“Maybe tomorrow we can move on from the bunny hill.”

“Hmm, I think I’m okay with the bunny hill.”

Holiday Decorating with Bobby Skeetz

Summary: you and Bobby decorate your house for the holidays (fluff)

Christmas is your favorite time of year. You love doing all the stereotypical holiday things, no matter how cheesy. Currently, you’re in the attic gathering your Christmas ornaments while your boyfriend finishes setting up the tree the two of you picked this morning. You bring down an unhealthy amount of ornaments and bring them into the living room where your tree was set up. 

“Hey, look at this,” Bobby says to you as you walk into the room with the final box or ornaments. You place them on the table and take a step back as Bobby plugs in the lights that he wrapped around the tree. The lights are colorful and they look great on the full tree that you picked out. 

“I love it,” you smile at him.

“Go on, put the first one on the tree.”

You rummage through the boxes looking for your favorite ornament. It was a gift from Bobby from your first Christmas together. It’s a photo of the two of you on your first date in a silver ornament that resembles a picture frame with the year the two of you started dating written at the bottom. You finally find it in one of the many boxes you brought down and walk over to the tree and put it in the center of the tree. 

There’s no method to your madness, you and Bobby just put the ornaments wherever there’s room. One thing you hated was sad, white trees, so you were sure that your Christmas tree was anything but. Every year, Bobby put on colorful lights for you, and your ornaments did not match whatsoever. The deep red skirt that was underneath the tree goes perfectly with all the crazy colors on the tree. Finally, the tree is all decorated.

Bobby then gets your stockings and hangs them up on the fireplace while you start putting up some other miscellaneous decor you found in the bins. The house is all decorated, so you crash onto the couch and get under one of your Christmas blankets. Bobby joins you a second later and cuddles up against you. Holiday music fills the house and you can’t help but smile to yourself at the life you’ve made with Bobby.

Easily one of the top five most annoying symptoms™ that I possess is that my chronic insomnia without fail is always triggered by the slightest bit of excitement for the next day, regardless of if it's good or bad. No matter what the context is, the second I think "Better get a good night's sleep!" I've already all over for me

You could tell me I have an opticians appointment tomorrow, that I've been personally invited to willy wonkas chocolate factory, or they're going to tie me to a boulder and roll me down a cliff and tbey all have the exact same outcome of making me wide awake the night before
