It’s December Twenty Fourth, 2011.

You and Charlie have been dating since seventh grade.. and it’s now senior year.

You’re at his family’s Christmas party, giggling and sitting beside each other in matching pajamas. Yours is a black tube top with red and black plaid pajama bottoms, with black socks. His is a black sweater with matching bottoms and black socks.

He has an arm around your waist, pulling you closer beside him on the couch as he watches A Christmas Story, his nephew sitting on the carpet and watching it too.

He gets sleepy, putting his head on your chest and starting to fall asleep. Meanwhile, the house is quiet and peaceful. It’s late, and he’s staying up with his nephew because he wanted to watch the movie. It’s now around eleven p.m.
