December 24. Christmas Eve. The exciting night for every kid. Ashton and I's first Christmas. Our last Christmas without the baby. The one-week anniversary of moving into the house.

It was Christmas Eve, and I was a little over twenty weeks along. About the pregnancy, I've been having weird cravings like lemons, sour patch kids, and potato chips. Another weird thing is that I have really cold feet, and I wear socks all the time except when I go to sleep. Also, in two days, we have a checkup for if we want to know the sex of the baby. I'm not sure that I want to know the sex. I want to find out at the birth. But I'm not sure about Ashton.

Ashton says that he hopes that I like his main present, that it's not the best. But come on, what present from Ashton isn't great? As I mentioned earlier, we have been in the house for a week now. I love living alone with Ashton.

On Christmas morning, which is the next morning, Ashton will drive me to my house for Christmas with my family, then he'll drive to his house for Christmas with his family. In the afternoon, we'll have Calum, Talia (who now decided to come and live with Calum! Yay!), Luke, Katie, Michael, and Saige over at Ashton's and my house for a little 5SOS Christmas Party!! Then, in the evening, Ashton said that we were going out for dinner.

------

The next morning, I woke up at 5:30 because Ashton was right next to me, poking my shoulder. I woke up, turned towards him, and gave him an annoyed look. "What?" I asked.

"It's Christmas!" He whispered like a little kid.

"Yeah, but did you have to wake me up at 5:30?"

"Somebody's grumpy on Christmas"

I pecked his lips then said, "I'm not grumpy"

He put his one hand on my face, and pulled my face in. Our lips moved in sync and our tongues collided. He smiled into the kiss, then giggled, forcing us to stop. "Merry Christmas, Baby" He whispered, and the baby kicked a little bit. I put my hands over my stomach, and Ashton looked at me worriedly.

"Babe, are you okay? What's the baby doing?" He asked.

"Kicking, a little" I told him.

"Might be excited that it's Christmas,"

"Or telling us to stop making out"

"I don't care, just kiss me"

------

When I woke up later, it was 7:15, and I got dressed and got into the car next to Ashton. We drove off to my mum's place, I gave Ashton a quick kiss, and he watched me go to the door, then left for his mum's house. I was wearing shorts and a nice, big, t-shirt because: 1) it's warm out, unlike Christmas some other places, and 2) I'm wearing the big shirt because I'm almost grown out of my regular shirts. I walked into the living room, and Danielle was sitting by the Christmas tree while mum and Logan were sitting on the couch. Mum had her camera, and she was using it to take pictures of Danielle open her presents. I went next, and there was lots of clothes, and I was happy because they were bigger and I would be getting bigger and growing out of most of my clothes. Logan went, then there were a few presents for mum. The one, Logan and I went together to get. It was a charm bracelet with a few charms on it: one that said "mum", one that said "grandma", one with a blue baby rattle on it (because Layla, who is now 24 weeks, and Logan are having a boy), one with an "s" on it for her name, and then there was room for a blue or pink baby rattle for our baby, then room for anymore charms she wanted. She was unwrapping and opening the box and Logan and I were just all smiles. She looked at it, then her mouth dropped open.

"Guys, this is amazing!!" She exclaimed.

"thanks. We wanted to get you something you'd really like" I said to her.

Later, Ashton came to pick me up at my mum's house. I said goodbye to them, then we drove home. When we got home, there was Calum's car in front of our house. We walked in and all of the boys, including Saige, Talia, and Katie were in our living room, sitting on the floor around the tree, waiting for us. Ashton ran over and sat down right beside Luke. I walked over and sat next to him. He grabbed my hand, then kissed it. We opened all of our presents from each other, and then all we had left was Ashton's last present to me. He had other little ones, but there was this one left. I opened it, and it was a beautiful, red, short, evening dress. (Picture will be with the. Next chapter). I pulled it out and looked at all of it.

"Ashton, I love it. It's beautiful!" I stood up, putting it in front of me, seeing how it would look.

"I like it on you" Ashton smiled, then kissed me.

"No PDA!!!!!" Luke, Calum, and Michael said in unison.

I took my lips off of Ashton's and just laughed with all of my friends. This was a perfect Christmas. It was with my family and all of my friends.

------

Later that evening, I showered up, then when I was in just a towel, I was asking Ashton what to wear. He said, "Something nice, like the dress I got you". He raised his eyebrows and winked, and I grabbed the dress. I put it on, along with red heels, then did makeup and curled my hair. I went downstairs to the doorway to see Ashton in a tuxedo with his hair done really nice.

"Ooo... Who's looking all sexy?" I asked, before kissing him.

"You" he said between kisses.

"Let's go" I said, motioning to the car.

A few minutes later, we pulled up in front of a fancy restaurant. We walked in, and Ashton told the man, "Irwin, Reservation for Two". "Right this way," the man led. We went onto the roof of the building, (there weren't many people on the roof) which was perfect because it wasn't windy, it wasn't too warm or too cold.

The waiter came up to us not much later and asked, "Champagne, yes?" I pointed to my stomach, then he said he understood. He asked Ashton, but Ashton declined. I just asked him for water then. He came back a little later with two waters in tall glasses. "Merry Christmas" Ashton said, holding up his glass. "Merry Christmas" I said back, and we clinked our glasses together before drinking. We then ordered our meals and started talking.

"So, Ashton, you remembered that I have an ultrasound tomorrow, right?" I asked.

"Of course" he paused, "so do you want to find out the baby's sex?"

"Actually, I don't. I want to wait and find out at the birth"

"Then that is what we'll do"

"Are you excited to see what the baby looks like now?"

"Babe, you know how much I love talking about the baby" he smiled, " but tonight I just want to talk about something else."

"Okay. What about the tour? When are you leaving?"

"No, babe, not the tour either" he said right as I was watching the food come.

The waiter placed the plates right in front of us. He said, "Bon Appetite" before leaving. I dug into the food, which was mostly salty foods. I was done with my dinner, and Ashton looked at me.

"What?" I asked.

"Nothing.."

"Stop staring at me"

"I can't, babe"

"Yes, you can"

"No, I can't. You're so beautiful"

"Thanks Ashton, but go back to eating"

"Babe, 1) I can't and 2) I'm done"

"Just stop staring at me"

"Babe, I remember when I was at the mall when I first really noticed you. I was staring at you, and you weren't paying attention, so you bumped into me. You were just so beautiful, and you still are. I've loved you ever since I saw you for the first time, Maddison Paige Higgins. But you know what? You know what's better than Maddison Paige Higgins? I know what's better: Maddison Paige Irwin"

I was confused, but I wasn't confused anymore when he walked over to my side of the table, pulled a velvet box out from his pocket, and got down on one knee. My mouth dropped open, so I put my hand over my mouth, and he smiled.

"Maddison Fucking Paige Higgins, you make me sooo crazy. I love you so fucking much. Will you do me the honor and make me the happiest man on Earth?" He paused and opened the box. My mouth flew open. The ring was so beautiful. "Will you marry me?"

"Ashton Fucking Fletcher Irwin.."

"Yes?" He said because I said I said his name.

"Of course I will marry you"

He slipped the ring onto my finger, we both stood up, then kissed. Everyone stared at us. "But I'm only seventeen" I whispered to Ashton between kisses. "We'll work it out, babe" he whispered back.

We stopped kissing, then just hugged. "Babe..." He whispered in my ear. "Yes?" I whispered back.

"I'm so horny"

"Well then let's go home"

We (by "we" I mean Ashton) paid for the meal, left a tip, then left.
