A/N: This was a OS for a Secret Santa !

Warnings : None

Beautiful, you looked simply beautiful as you watched the Christmas tree in front of you with almost childish glee in your eyes, the soft warm light softly illuminated your skin creating a golden glow to your face. You were dressed in one of these ridiculous sweaters that looked ugly one everyone wearing it expect you ... At least that was what Loki was thinking and we know the man is never truly objective when it came to you. But who could blame him? With all he had been through, he deserved more than anyone that happily ever after.

And his happily ever after truly came with you, you and your bright smile, you and the way your eyes shone with excitement when talked about spending Christmas with, you and the fact that you knew basically every Christmas carol by heart, you and all the little that you did daily were making him the luckiest man ever.

" Why are you staring ?" you asked detouring your eyes from the Tree to watch him, a small smile tugging your lips.

"Because I think I'm lucky ..." he answered as he gently circled you with his arms before posing his chin on your shoulder.

"And why are you lucky?

- Because of you ..."

Blushing, you chuckled sightly and quickly deposed a peck on his cheek. Even after being together for more than a year, he still made you blush like crazy. The worst part in that is that he is aware of it and love to make blush. The bastard.

Loki opened his mouth to add something but you interrupted him by gasping very loudly, suddenly reminding something ... Which by the look on your face was probably very important. Before he could ask anything, you jumped out of his arms, moving forward the Christmas Tree where two wrapped gift where waiting. The green one with a golden ribbon for him and the blue one for you.

You grabbed the gift destined to Loki which was small, let's just say that you weren't getting paid enough to offer something too expensive but you still managed to find something meaningful to him ... Well, at least you hoped so.

" For you! I almost forgot to give your gift because of your sappy talk!" you exclaimed as you presented the gift to him while he muttered something along the lines of you finding everything he said sappy.

Still, he ripped apart the paper wrapping the gift way too curious about its nature to keep complaining. It revealed a book with a nice leather cover and the title reading: "A Christmas Carol". Loki frowned, the title rings a bell in his mind.

" Wait ... Why do I know this title ?"

Smiling, you sat down next to him, pointing at the book still in his hand.

" It was the book I was reading when we first met ... You pretended to know the story just to impress me," you explained softly as you watch his eyes widen with a mix of love and bewilderment. But he didn't say anything, he didn't need to say anything when he kissed you like that, when his kiss was the caption of all the things you made him feel. Loved that's what he felt, for one of the rare time in his life, he felt loved.

Slowly pulling back, he looked at you with an adoring face, before softly saying

"You truly are my happy ending darling"
