The final day of filming wrapped up earlier than expected, and Andrew couldn't have been more relieved. He had been looking forward to spending the holidays with you, especially since it was your first Christmas together in a long time. You had been together for three years before tying the knot, and now, five years into your marriage, you were more in love than ever.
As he drove home, his mind wandered to the surprise he had planned for you. But when he opened the front door, he was the one who got surprised. There you were, a whirlwind of excitement and energy, with suitcases packed and ready to go.
"What's all this?" he asked, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
You beamed at him, your eyes sparkling with mischief. "We’re heading to visit our friends and family! I thought it would be a nice surprise."
Andrew chuckled, pulling you into a warm embrace. "I should have known you'd have something up your sleeve."
You leaned into his touch, savoring the moment. "I just thought it would be nice to spend Christmas with everyone we love."
As you both loaded up the car, the anticipation built. The drive was filled with laughter and shared memories, the miles melting away as you drew closer to your destination
When you arrived, the welcome was everything you both needed
Later that evening, as you both sat by the fire, Andrew took your hand in his, his thumb tracing gentle circles on your skin. "You know, I had a surprise for you too," he said, his voice soft.
You raised an eyebrow, curiosity piqued. "Oh? What is it?"
He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small, intricately wrapped box. "Open it."
With trembling fingers you unwrapped the gift to reveal a delicate bracelet, adorned with charms that represented significant moments in your relationship. There was a tiny camera for the first time you met on set, a miniature wedding band for your marriage, and even a small house charm for the home you built together.
Tears welled in your eyes as you looked at him. "Andrew, it's perfect. Thank you."
