Chapter 4: The Tiefling and the Dragonborn

“FINE! I’M FUCKING COMING, WHATEVER! BUT I’M DRIVING!” the front door was slammed open and Billy’s voice roared through the air, making me smirk widely before winking at him past my shoulder. “Oh, baby, trust me, I KNEW this was gonna happen. You love your redheads!” I told him before getting in the passenger seat. “Max, careful there! We’ll be right behind you!” I yelled at them as Max got in Steve’s driver’s seat and started the engine. “Why the fuck is Harrington letting my sister drive?! She’s, like, 13!” he growled in annoyance, making me put my hand on his shoulder to calm him down. “Max is an absolute badass, so I wouldn’t worry if I were you. I bet she drives better than Harrington.” I laughed, making him chuckle slightly as he shot up after them as we got to the vine tunnel. “The fuck is this place?” he asked as we all got out of our cars. “It’s hell…” I muttered, taking a deep breath and hoisting my shotgun on my shoulder.

We took the gasoline and the other equipment and were to go inside the tunnel, but as much as I wanted to hold Billy’s hand for reassurance, I had to be the strong one today. However, the was an unexpected problem that occurred which made me slap my face hard in annoyance.

“Get in the car. RIGHT. NOW!” I yelled at them to get inside, but of course, they protested. “What?! We can’t leave you alone! Who knows how many Demodogs are out there! You can’t fight them all!” Mike screamed at my face, but I only shook my head. “And what are you gonna do, Mike? Tell me? Do you have any kind of power to defeat these guys? Or, I don’t know, can you shoot? Or anything that won’t make you a burden to me to protect?” I asked impatiently. “Steve, Billy, split up in the cars and make sure nobody gets out, okay?” I instructed them, but they were reluctant to do so. “I’m not sure what to say about that, Katrina, you could die out there. Those things are scary as hell.” Steve shook his head in disdain. “Until El closes the damn gate, we are going to be at risk. I’m trying to keep the monsters from going to her place, and if I get to be the diversion, then so be it! What else would you want to do?!” I asked in annoyance, making Dustin come forth a bit. “What if we go down the tunnels and light them up while you keep them busy here? It’ll be like a double diversion, right?” he proposed, but I could only frown. “If I don’t stay with you, there’s nobody down there to protect you. Neither of you have powers and if those things come in more than 2 or 3…” I bite my lip anxiously, looking around as the snarling got louder. “Steve and Billy are strong enough, right? They can fight the demodogs if anything else fails!” Mike suggested, making the older boys groan. “They are still human…I…I…It’s dangerous…Okay, how about this. Put up the equipment and we go down the tunnel. I will guide you to the middle and then I return to make sure to fight any ambush, while all of you stay here. Sounds good?” I breath out, scared out of my wits for everyone, and the kids nodded. “Why the hell are you constantly putting yourself in danger for these twerps?!” Billy sneered, glaring at the kids. “Because these kids accepted me when everyone else shunned me. If I die to protect them, then I’ll have no regrets. But that includes you and Steve as well…So, please…Please, guys…Be responsible and don’t die out there, okay?” I managed to say barely above a whisper, but Steve shook his head. “We are not going down there right now. I made myself clear. Hey, there’s no chance we’re going to that hole, all right? This ends right now!” Steve tried to protest like all hell, being the mother friend/babysitter, but of course nobody bothered to listen. “Steve, you’re upset, I get it. But the bottom line is, a party member requires assistance, and it is our duty to provide that assistance. Now, I know you promised Nance that you would keep us safe. So, keep us safe.” Dustin explained very maturely as he handed Steve his nailed bat. “Steve, Billy and the rest of the Party. As you all know by now, I’m the only one with powers around, so if ANYTHING happens, you come to ME, capiche? I am the Leader and the Protector of this Party and of this Campaign, and this Rogue is NOT about to let any of you get harmed, got it?!” I said as strict as possible, making the Party yell “YES, FOX!” as they usually did when we were playing, while Billy and Steve looked at me weirdly, but I paid them no mind. “Uh…Fox…The Demodogs are here…” Lucas muttered as he inched closer to Max, making me simmer with anger. “Okay, great, fuck all my plans! Everyone down the hole! I’ll trust you to be fine by yourself, I’ll deal with these things myself! Billy!… Please, take care of Max. Please.” I mutter the last part as I kissed his hand again before shooing them all down the hole as I stepped in the middle of the place and took a deep breath. “HEY, KITTEN! WHEN I COME BACK HERE, YOU BETTER BE ALIVE AND KICKIN’, ‘CAUSE I WANNA TAKE YOU OUT ON A DATE!” Billy yelled before he went down the hole, making me chuckle softly. “Gotcha…Babe…” I whispered to myself as I stretched and extended my arms towards the monsters. “OI, FUCKERS! I’M HERE! COME GET ME!” I screamed at the top of my lungs

I started running around, making one demodog float in the air as I ripped it in two then sent it flying towards others, making them stumble and fall to the ground. Using the shotgun, I managed to shoot a few of them, but godamn it didn’t have too many bullets, so I used my powers to summon the axe and I proceeded to chop them up here and there.

Of course, it wasn’t that easy, and using my powers so much was taking a toll on me. Screaming really did help somehow with easing the growing migrane as the use of my power kept straining my brain, making my nose and eyes bleed like hell, but I had a huge motivation to keep on going no matter what. I couldn’t let the Party get attacked by this army.

I wasn’t fast enough, for once, my vision getting slightly blurry from the blood and the psychic strain, and one of the monsters leaped on my chest, clawing and trying to bite me, but I somehow managed to catapult it far away from me with my powers, but the damage was already done. I never used my powers so much before, only getting stuff I was too lazy to get up for, but now, killing these monsters…The strain made me sick to my stomach. I didn’t realise how long the fight was, 'cause after what felt like hours, I was panting as I fell on my knees, trying to catch my breath, and I suddenly heard my name been called out.

The Party left the Tunnels.

“GO TO THE CARS! NOW!!” I screamed at them in desperation as I saw 5 monsters running at them full speed. They scurried to the cars, but I had to use a fallen tree from the ground and hit the monsters away from the car area, which allowed to to get inside, but I, however, started coughing blood. That damn tree sure was heavy as hell…And I thought Billy was a fatass.

“Katrina! Katrina, get in the car! You’re hurt!” I heard a voice scream, but I couldn’t be bothered to get from the ground, my ears were ringing and I felt dizzy, but as two more monsters tried to leap on the cars, I managed to stop them both mid air, and screaming in pain and exhaustion, I started hitting them on all the trees around, before dropping them to the floor.

“KAT, PLEASE! KAT, COME HERE! YOU CAN’T KEEP FIGHTING THEM!” Max shrieked in desperation, but I only shook my head as I covered my mouth with my hand to cough more blood. It’s like there was no end to them and they just knew where to go…But it was better this way…Better here, than to attack El. I can handle these little shits, she just has to close the gate…And hopefully before I pass out.

“FOX! FOX, ABORT MISSION! YOU’RE A ROGUE, NOT A FIGHTER! FOX, DON’T SACRIFICE YOURSELF! WE NEED YOU! FOX!!!” The Party kept screaming from inside the car, as I used my powers to throw the axe at another monster, but I didn’t realise there was another behind me until it bit my leg and I fell to the ground with a scream. “Oh, fuck off…!” I tsked as I tried to use my powers to get it off me, which worked, somehow, but when I tried to get up, a terrible pain surged through my leg and I fell down my my knees, red tears streaming down my face as I kept cursing the demodogs. “Nobody hurts MY Kitten, you fucking fuckasses!” I heard a pissed off growl before a shrill screech of pain was heard just behind me, which on further inspection, it was Billy who just killed one of the Demodogs with the axe I’ve been using. “Well…That was hot.” I managed to breath out, before I crawled a bit, coughing up so blood before paralysing the monster that was about to leap of Billy and throwing it in another tree in the opposite direction. “How much longer do we have to keep this shit up? You look like you’re about to die here.” he stated, looking around his surroundings, ready to jump into action if another monster was to appear. “Until El closes the damn Gate…And…I feel worse than dead, so…Urgh…” I stopped talking because of the killing headache and a horrible feeling of Vertigo took over me and I collapsed on the ground. “Kat…? Kat, what the fuck, are you okay?!” he immediately crouched down next to me, lifting me up into his arms, and I looked up at him through hooded eyes, nodding slightly. “Never better.” I mutter with a sigh of pain. “HEYYYY! KAT, BILLY! I THINK WE DID IT! EL CLOSED THE GATE! WE’RE SAFE NOW!” Mike screamed from the car as everyone got out and ran towards us. “WEEEEEEEEEEE ARE THE CHAAAAAAAAAAMPIOOOOONS, MY FRIEEEEEEND!!!” I managed to choke up as I threw my arms out in victory, a huge dizzy grin on my face, not even bothering to get up from Billy’s arms. “Urgh, great, Queen again. Come on, babe, I was hoping for better.” he chuckled, lifting me up in his arms as he got up. “FOX, YOU SAVED US! YOU DID IT! WE WON!” the Party jumped up and down around us, cheering, and I let my head down as I dangled my legs around a bit, laughing in pure glee. “I am the best Party Leader, fuck yeah! T'is the best campaign we’ve ever done! Queen Fox is IN THE HOUSE, BABY!” I cheered with them, closing my eyes, not even caring that the world was still lightly spinning around me. “Let’s get home and uh…What was I going to say…Steve, help me out a bit. You’re the mother of the group!” I laughed, making him sigh and shake his head, but he was smiling softly at everyone. “Let’s go home and get you treated. You look like hell.” he motioned for us to get in the car. “Trust me, I feel worse.” I chuckled as Billy helped me in the passenger seat then got in his car as he drove us back to the Byers. “Baby, you better rock me like a hurricane 'cause I’m in such a Scorpions mood and if you don’t put their songs right now, I’m gonna be pissed.” I laughed like I was drunk-dazed and leaned on the car door. “Oh, Kitten, trust me, I would rock your whole world, if only you let me.” he gave me that charming look before putting Scorpions on and driving us back home.

We all got reunited and I hugged the living hell out of Will when I finally got to see him, and I let Joyce and Nancy tend to my wounds and before I knew it, I fell asleep on the sofa and had no idea what was going on anymore for I slept like a rock for 16 hours straight.

When I woke up, it was already afternoon, but weirdly enough, I felt very comfortable…Only to raise my head a bit and realise I was cuddling with Billy on the sofa and he was watching TV silently. “Oh, look at this, finally decided to wake up?” he asked in a soft voice, petting my hair. “I wanted to see what’s like to be dead, so I slipped into a mini-coma. But I still feel like hell.” I chuckled, closing my eyes and leaning into his touch. “Awww, look at her, a bit more and you’re gonna purr for me.” he chuckled, carressing my face. “Purr Purr…” I did the cat impression, making both of us laugh as he held me closer to him. “Hey…Y'know…You scared me out there.” he breathed out, looking around to make sure nobody was in the room or could hear us. “I’m sorry…I…I have no idea what happened. I just…I was so focused on making sure you guys don’t get hurt…That I can’t remember much…” I sighed looking down. “You’re the strongest person I ever met, y'know. If those fuckers knew how strong you were, they’d bow down to you like lil’ bitches.” he growled a bit, but I only shook my head. “It doesn’t matter. I’m just happy you’re all okay and Will is finally safe.” I say with a smile on my face as I try to get up, but I’m still extremely wobbly. “You can’t sit still, can you? Come on, the others are eager to see you.” he sighed, helping me walk to the kitchen.

The reunion was a very lovely one, despite how tiring it was with so many people, and in the end, I, Billy and Max could finally go home and rest, for God knows we deserved it.

“Do you need anything?” he asked again as he put me down on my bed. “No, dear, I’ll be okay. Thank you for worrying.” I hold his hand, looking up at him. “You have my phone number, the phone is in my room, so if you need me, you know where to call.” he said for the millionth time, making me look at him with a very loving look. “Yes, Billy, I won’t forget that. I really appreciate it. I promise to call if I need anything. Also…If you don’t mind, the project and tutoring…Could you come over? It will be easier for me and my leg.” I giggled sheepishly, making him nod with a smile on his face…A genuine one. “Yeah, babe, sure. Anything you want. Good thing Winter break is coming, no more need to hang around these fucktards.” he rolled his eyes. “Mhm. And they’ll be busy hosting the Winter Prom…Whatever it’s called, so it will be even better.” I smiled at him. “Ah, shit, right, completely forgot about it…Wanna come with me?” he asked in the most passive voice he could, but his cheeks became slightly rosy. “I would, sweety, but I’m not going to the Prom. I promised that I’d help around with the organisation of the Middle-school Snow Ball, along with Nancy and Jonathan. I would ask you to come to the Snow Ball with me, but I think you’d like a real party with people our age, not a bunch of kids, hm?” I mused, tilting my head slightly. “Oh, right…Max kept talking about it…I dunno, I’ll think about it, okay? It’s still more than a month till then.” he sighed and raked his fingers through his hair. “I will be waiting for you there, then.” I grinned at him, laying down on my bed, getting to read Lord of the Rings again, since I deserve a treat after what I’ve been through.

I was at Nancy’s and did each others hair and make up and went to the Ball so we could help around with the last touches of the Ball. After this whole hell that we’ve been through, I somehow bonded with Nancy, Jonathan and Steve really nicely and she was happy to have some girl time with me, considering that she doesn’t really have any more girl friends, after what happened to Barb. I double check the laces of my black sneakers (because after the leg thing, I’d much rather not walk in heels) and neated down my dark green dress and started checking the music, the decorations, if everything was clean and in order.

Very soon, all the kids started coming by in bunches and I turned on the music, starting with the generic Cindy Laupner, then Michael Jackson, Prince, Madonna, Whitney, Queen, Phil Collins, Eurythmics, Tina Turner, David Bowie. I wanted SO badly to put Scorpions, AC/DC, Pink Floyd and all that, but it’s a Christmas Ball, so…I can’t do much about that.

I looked around at the kids dancing completely carefree and I grinned, my heart swelling in happiness as the sight. It was completely adorable how they were looking for pairs every time a slow song came by, and then they’d start dancing in groups again at a more upbeat song.

“Kat! Kat, oh my God, you’re so beautiful!” I heard a girl voice say, making me turn around in confusion as I saw Max barely seconds before she jump-hugged me, making me laugh at how adorable she is. “My, Max, you’re GORGEOUS! Susan did your hair really nicely, I see. Lucas is gonna be SO dead over you.” I winked at her, making her blush slightly and grin. “Oh, really? Wait until my brother sees you! Oh, here he’s coming! Go greet him! I saw the nerds, I’m going to pester them. Have fun, Kat!” she gave me two thumbs up before running to the pack, and I looked in confusion to the door, and there he was.

Billy was looking slightly uncomfortable around so many kids, but he kept his swagger with each step he took. He was dressed in a really nice dark red shirt, of course, characteristically having more than 3 buttons unbuttoned, and dark coloured jeans with boots. I smile softly, looking at the ground, feeling my face burn up at how beautiful he looked, before getting the courage to step towards him and smile.

“You…You made it. Hi.” I managed to breathe out, not managing to stop the smile on my face. “Well…The little twerp needed a driver, so I said why not.” he shrugged, looking away. “You’re beautiful as always.” I giggled, clasping my hands behind my back and swinging a bit back and forth. “Ah, fuck, babe, you’re making me blush. I can’t even look at ya 'cause I know I’ll melt.” he gave me a side smile, looking down as well, his face getting slightly red. “Uh…Wanna dance?” he asked, offering me his hand. “I…I would, but I have no idea how to dance…- OH MY GOD!” all my shyness went away when I heard the first few notes of “Take on me” by A-Ha and I just grabbed his hand and started singing the lyrics and swinging around with a huge grin on my face. “Whoaa, babe, what’s gotten you so energetic?” he started chuckling as he looked at me with a sparkle in his eyes. “It’s my favourite song! How could I possibly not enjoy my favourite song?!” I cheered, twirling around to the rhythm of the song, making him take my hands in his and dance with me, laughing, twirling and swinging with me. “This is so weird, dancing around a bunch of brats.” he shook his head, making me put my hands on his face and making him look at me. “Nobody knows or cares that you’re here, so just have fun and forget about everything else!” I stuck my tongue out at him playfully. “Yeahh, sure, easy to say. You’re so small that you blend with the rest of them.” he chuckled, before stopping dead in his track. “Oh, what the-" he muttered, making me slap my face, seeing all the kids find their pair. "Oh, hell no. I always hated The Police, and this song is SO bad!” I groaned, going to sit on the bleachers. “I did NOT put it on the playlist, okay?" I chuckled, shaking my head as he sat next to me. "Yeah, I agree. It sucks. I don’t get why everyone likes it so much. It’s so dull.” he muttered, putting his arm around my waist and pulling me closer to him. “Yeah…We should do our own little party with quality music, not…This.” I sighed, resting my head on the crook of his neck. “Mhm, we should.” he began, before looking at me with a soft expression. “Hey, babe…” he muttered in a low voice. “Yeah, Billy?” I asked, looking up at him, before giggling. “Oh, no, dear, I’m NOT kissing you on this poor excuse of a song.” I said with a smile before resting my head back on his neck. “Guess you’re right. Look at all these brats, not appreciating quality songs…Oh, no, fucking Sinclair, he’s SO dead-” he began, but I shook my head and put my legs on his lap, grinning at him innocently. “You’re not moving from here unless I say you can and I’m not letting you ruin their fun, clear?” I put my arms around his neck and kissed his cheek. “I thought you weren’t gonna kiss me on this shit song.” he chuckled, getting close to my face. “I’m sorry, what song now? I can’t hear anything, I can only hear you voice~!” I exclaimed, rubbing my head on his neck like a cat would. “You’re completely melting my heart, you, little vixen.” he breathed out softly, looking down with a smile. “And I’m melting every time I see you smiling so genuinely. You’re so beautiful. I wish you’d smile and show your true side more.” I said, barely above a whisper, holding one of his hands in both of mine, kissing the top of it. “You’re too god for me, Kitten. You’re completely ruining me.” he said in a low, almost sorrowful voice, taking one of my hands in his and putting it on his face, leaning on my touch. “You deserve to be happy, Billy. You deserve all the best in the world and I swear I’ll kill the next person who ever makes you sad.” I muttered, watching his expression become more and more vulnerable, finally showing me a glimpse of the real Billy. “Can you kill my father?” he sighed, looking down and kissing my hand. “I don’t deserve an angel like you.” “Dear, but I’m a Fox, not an Angel. And you deserve everything good in this world, honey. You are the sweetest person I’ve ever gotten the pleasure to meet. If anything, I’m not good for you.” I chuckled, raising his face to look at me, but he frowned a bit. “Why would you say something like that? I don’t want to hear it…Kat, you’re amazing. I don’t need anyone else in my life but you. Never leave me…Please.” he was so soft, so vulnerable, letting his facade finally slip, just for me to see. “I promise I will never leave you, Billy. I promise you with all might heart.” I assured him, kissing his forehead as a way to seal the promise.

“Pssst, Max! Hey, Max! You there?” I kept throwing pebbles at her window as I saw the light on and she soon opened it. “Kat? Kat! What are you doing here?” she gasped, completely shocked to see me there. “Well, it’s Christmas eve, right? I had to bring you your gifts, but I didn’t want to ring the bell, in case that fuckass of a father was there.” I explained, chuckling. “Oh, no, neither of our parents are home. In fact, they won’t be coming home for the next 4 days. They let I and Billy the house to ourselves.” she explained, making me grin as I climbed up her window. “Then, I guess I can put the gifts under the tree myself~?” I asked as I got in her room. “Defo! Billy’s not home yet, I think he said something about shopping? I dunno, I wasn’t paying attention.” she showed me the Christmas tree, very beautifully decorated, and noticed mistletoe hanging from the lamp above, making me smirk slightly. “Hey, Max, wanna bake cookies and listen to Billy’s music? I bet he won’t get mad.” I grinned at her and she started eagerly nodding, dragging me to Billy’s room, taking the cassette player and putting it in the kitchen and putting AC/DC to blast throughout the house as we started baking cookies and screaming the lyrics to the songs like 2 idiots on drugs. “You know…I never really celebrated Christmas before.” I confessed, looking in the oven as we waited for the cookies to bake. “Whoa, really? I mean, I guess it makes sense, but that’s just sad. Hey, don’t you wanna sleep over? It will be so cool!” she looked at me enthusiastically, making me laugh. “If you want me, sure, I’d love that. I look around the house and you guys decorated it so nicely…It really feels like a home.” my voice lowered a bit, a soft smile on my face. “Cool! We’re gonna have so much fun! I’ve always loved sleepovers!” she fist pumped the air. “Okay, they’re done, let me get them out.” I told her, as I took out the batch of cookies from the oven and placing them on the table, gleaming and how good they looked and smelled. “I can’t WAIT to eat them!” she cheered in complete glee. “OI, TWERP! WHY IS MY MUSIC COMING FROM THE KITCHEN AND WHY THE HELL DOES IT SMELL LIKE-…Kat? What are you doing here?” he jaw dropped as soon as he got in the kitchen and saw me and Max jumping and clapping. “Oh, Billy hi! Uh…Surprise?” I laughed awkwardly, scratching the back of my neck. “I came over to give Max the gifts to put under the tree…And somehow, I ended up here, baking cookies and staying overnight. Fun, huh?” I grinned at him, but he was still in shock. “Uh…Yeah, I guess. I’ll be in my room then.” he muttered, leaving to his room. “He TOTALLY had Christmas gifts there to wrap up.” she smirked at me, rubbing her hands together in an evil way. “Well…When do you usually open gifts?” I asked completely clueless. “I think they’re supposed to be opened tomorrow morning, but we’re never patient enough so we open them at around 10pm.” she explained, which made me look at the watch. “That’s…In 2 hours. Huh, guess we have time for a few more cookies.” I smirked and started working on the next batch.

We prepared everything and for the last remaining time, we went to gossip in her room until 10pm sharp came and we went to tell Billy to come down. He was sitting on the bed, looking at the ceiling, doing nothing.

“Yeah, sure, I’ll come in a sec. Max, go ahead, I wanna ask Kat somethin’.” he said in a low voice, making Max roll her eyes and go to the living room as I stepped inside. “Did something happen, dear?” I asked him softly, sitting next to him. “I’m not coming until you go there wearing one of my shirts again and sleep in my room.” he smirked, making me laugh. “Woaw, okay, that’s such blackmail! So rude!” I declared, poking his cheek. “Scorpions it is, then.” he chuckled, throwing me his band Tshirt. “Why do you like seeing me in your shirts anyways?” I asked as I took off my clothes as soon as he turned around. “Cause you look great in them. I told ya before, it’s hot as hell.” he chuckled, making me sigh. “Whatever you say…Okay, let’s go to Max now.” I took his hand and dragged him to the living room. “Hey, Max, we’re here! You can give the gifts.” I winked at her as we all sat on the floor. “Oh, hell yes!” she smirked as she took the first gift…Clearly because she knew it was from me. “Well, then, do you like it?” I asked as she ripped off the wrapper, revealing the newest console game, making her squeal in glee above the sounds of the soft carols and she jumped on my lap. “OH MY GOD, NO WAY! IT JUST APPEARED! THANK YOU SO MUCH, KAT, YOU’RE THE BEST!” she kissed my cheek, making me grin at her. “I’m glad that you like it, dear. You can show off with your MADMAX skills~!” I winked at her.

This continued in the same fashion as she got a new pullover and a pair of jeans from her parents and a three music cassettes from Billy. Billy got a new jacket from his parents, a Tshirt from Max, and a Motley Crue Tshirt from me, since I remembered him mentioning he wanted one but never got the chance to get it, which made him kiss my cheek in thanks. Max bought me “The Silmarillion” book by Tolkien, saying that she knew I had all the rest but this one, and oh god, I couldn’t wait till I got the chance to read this.

“Billy, where’s your gift for Kat?” she asked, narrowing her eyes at him. “I’m not letting ya give it to her in my stead. I will give her the gift when you leave us alone.” he shrugged, which made both I and Max shake our heads simultaneously. “Ah, fine, fine, whatever. You promised you’d take us to the cafe tomorrow, so I’m going to sleep. Better not be a jerk to her, got it?” she threatened him, making him wave her off. “You didn’t have to get me anything, you know.” I said softly. “Staying with you is enough for me.” “Ah, shut up.” he muttered before getting up and putting on a mixtape cassette on which was written X-mas, and Careless Whisper started playing, before going to his room and bringing a neatly wrapped gift box, which revealed an AC/DC Tshirt…The same one he made me wear when I first slept over, and I said I loved the design of. “Thank you so much, I love it!” I beamed as I hugged him, kissing his cheek. “Now we match, babe. We can wear it at the same time when we go out.” he smirked softly as he hugged me and swayed tot he music with me.

We swayed left and right slowly, enjoying the music in each other’s warm embrace, before “Still Loving You” by Scorpions came on, which made my eyes water a bit, a smile playing on my face. “Hey, Billy…” I call out, putting my hands on his face, making him look at me. “Yeah, babe?” he muttered, slightly confused. “Remember at the Ball when I said I wouldn’t kiss you on that stupid, clichee song?” I began, earning a nod in a way to continue. “Well…This is one of my soul songs…And…Look up.” I blushed a bit, biting my lip as I noticed him looking up and letting out a breath of amusement. “Well, isn’t this the perfect setting?” he mused in a low voice, leaning in. “Yeah…It is.” I breathed out, standing on my tippy toes to reach him.

It wasn’t much, just a very innocent, chaste kiss, but the warmth that burst in my heart was like a super nova that crashed. “Heh…I…I never kissed anyone like this before.” he confessed as he pulled me into his embrace. “What do you mean?” I asked with a confused smile on my face. “Oh, come on, babe, y'know I’m bad at talking 'bout feelings'n'all that. Y'know what I meant…” he looked away, a bit uncomfortable. “I really have no idea, but you don’t have to tell me. There’s time for everything, okay? Take your time.” I smiled at him, making him sigh. “I already told ya that you’re meltin’ me, and I wasn’t lying. You’re the only one who ever cared about me, not about some stupid Keg King who’s popular for whoring, fighting and downing a barrel of beer in one go.” he confessed, petting my hair. “That’s because you let me get close to you and showed me the real you. And for that, I thank you…Thank you for trusting me so much.” I smiled, putting him in another kiss, this time longer, yet just as gentle and bursting with emotions new to both of us. “You’re making me weak to my knees, babe. You’re gonna be the death of me, I swear.” he chuckled softly. “And what a Christmas gift for me…” he smiled tenderly. “So, like, uhm…Are we…Are we together now?” I blushed asking as I looked away in embarrassment. “If you want to stay with someone like me…” he began, but I cut him off. “Promise you won’t leave or get bored of me?” I looked at him with hopeful eyes, biting my lip in nervousness. “I’d be an idiot to ever leave you.” he declared, which made him leave him embrace and ran quickly to the room, taking a little box from my jeans pocket. “Then…Here. I…I hope you like the idea…It’s…It’s very clichee and super cheesy, b-but, uhmm…” I rambled, looking everywhere but at him, too flustered to do that. “Woaw…That’s a nice 'K’.” he muttered, taking out the silver necklace from the package and putting it on, and as he looked up, I took out the 'B'necklace from beneath the Tshirt. “Oh my God, Kitten, no way you did this.” he teased, making me cover my face with me hands, to embarrassed to even breathe. “Sh-Shut up…” I managed to usher before being picked up and put on his bed. “You’re so fucking adorable, I swear. I’m never letting you go.” he muttered in my ear as he held me in his arms, peppering my face with kisses, and I couldn’t breathe from how embarrassed I was. “Y-You’re gonna be th-the death of me…” I pouted as he chuckled and poked my cheek. “You’re just too cute, babe, okay? I can’t get 'nough of ya.” he confesses, kissing me once again. “Now I know what to look forward every time there’s a new test coming.” he smirked, making me sigh and bury my face on the crook of his neck. “How long are you gonna embarrass me like this? I don’t know how much I can take this without fainting. It’s all too unreal…Like I’m dreaming or something.” I whispered, unsure of myself. The jerk only chuckled and raised my face to look up at him before kissing me yet again, muttering “You’re not dreaming.”, cradling me to his chest, as if afraid I’d disappear in the morning.

“Happy Christmas, Billy.” I ushered softly, cuddling closer to him. “Yeah…It sure is a happy freakin Christmas now that you’re with me, babe.” he chuckled softly, planting a kiss on my head before going to sleep.

What a Happy Christmas indeed…
