My Christmas Gifts To You

Summary: Matt wants to show Emily how much he loves her, and how much she means to him. So he plans/buys her something new everyday, starting twelve days before Christmas, but it's his last gift to her that will shock her and all of their friends...or maybe it's her gift for him that will shock everyone.


Chapter One: On the First Day of Christmas.

Matt sat patiently on the couch, awaiting his girlfriend's return from the store. A small fuzzy creature perched on his lap, a small red bow around it's neck. The animal purred lightly, waiting the attention of the only person in the house. Matt smiled at the small fuzzy animal, before patting it's tiny head. Matt would admit, that the small animal wasn't that bad. A cat was much better, and easier to maintain than a dog, and well he wasn't mindful of cats. Cats weren't as vicious as dogs. Matt shuddered at the thought of even thinking of having a dog in his house. 'Man's best friend my ass' Matt told himself, as he petted his new found friend.

Matt was brought abruptly from his thoughts, when he heard a key in the door, and heard the door squeak open. Matt hid the tiny creature to the best of his ability, as Emily entered they're house, sitting down a handful of bags in the kitchen, before walking back into the living room, where Matt was.


"God, that place was a mad house. I now remember why I hate shopping for anything during the holidays," Emily sighed exhaustedly, as she plopped down on the couch.

"Yeah, holiday shopping sucks," Matt said, before biting his lip, trying to stop the laugh that wanted to escape, as the tiny kitten started to lick his arm.

"Yeah, what's behind your back?" Emily asked, automatically seeing that he was trying to hide something.

"Uh...well...technically, it's a Christmas present for you, but I got it early, and I want you to have it now," Matt said, raising up just a little bit, to keep a decent hold on the tiny animal.

"What is it?" Emily asked, an amused look on her face.

"Here," Matt said, pulling the small kitten from around his back, red bow still attached to it's neck.

Emily's eyes lit up at the sight of the tiny kitten, as she took it from Matt.

"What made you get me a kitten?" Emily asked, as she eyed the beautiful little fur ball.

"Well, I remember how you said you always wanted one, but how you couldn't because your dad was allergic. Then how when you started college you were going to get one, but your roommate was allergic, and well how it wasn't even an option after you joined the academy. I wanted to do something special for Christmas this year, and well, I got an idea," Matt smiled at her, as she carefully petted her new pet.

"Well, she's beautiful Matt, thank you so much. Now what's this idea you have?" Emily asked, as a few ideas entered her mind as well.

"I can't tell you, it'll ruin the surprise, but I think you'll like it," Matt grinned.

"Hmmm...should I be afraid that your hiding this from me?" Emily asked, completely aware of his attempt at hiding any information.

"Nope, not scared," Matt said, as he reached his hand over and patted the kittens head.

"If I shouldn't be scared then why won't you tell me?" Emily asked, using her seductive eyes.

"Because, it's a surprise, you'll find out soon enough," Matt grinned.

"Matt..." Emily whined, hated not knowing what he had up his sleeve.

"Nope, not telling," Matt smiled.

"If I was an HT, I'm sure you'd spill," Emily grinned.

"Okay, that's hitting below the belt," Matt said, trying to act hurt.

"Which translates to being true," Emily grinned even more.

"No it doesn't," Matt said, his arms crossed across his chest.

"Well, I assume your not afraid of cats?" Emily asked.

"No I'm not, and I'm not afraid of dogs...just...mindful," Matt grinned.

"Matt, that's just another way of saying your scared," Emily said, patting his chest, before laying her head down on it.

"Are you going to name her?" Matt asked.

"Well, yeah, but I just don't know what," Emily said, as she picked up the small kitten, and examined it more closely.

It was beautifully colored. Orange, white, and brown, with a big black circle around it's left eye. Two white tipped paws, and two brown tipped paws. It really was very different from any other cat Emily had saw. It had big greenish colored eyes, that looked half-way between sad, and playful.

"What do you think Matt?" Emily asked, no suitable names coming to her mind.

"Uh...yeah I don't name anything. I don't do pets remember," Matt smiled, as he stroked her hair back, just watching her with the small kitten.

"Matt please, I don't wanna give her a stupid name," Emily pleaded, giving him, her best puppy dog eyes.

Matt groaned slightly, "No fair, you know I can't say no to your puppy dog eyes."

"Of course I do, why do you think I use them?" Emily asked, a smile playing her lips.

"It's still not fair, let me see her," Matt said, grabbing the small kitten from Emily's hands.

Matt looked at the kitten, and smiled.

"What about butterscotch?" Matt asked, noticing that the kitten had more orange and brown on it's body than anything else.

"That's perfect Matt, see you are good at naming them," Emily smiled, kissing his lips, before grabbing Butterscotch from Matt.

"Oh great, now I have to contend with a cat?" Matt asked, playing the hurt puppy.

"Of course not, I just figure this," Emily paused her lips capturing Matt's passionately, before breaking away. "Would be easier if Butterscotch, wasn't on the couch. Wouldn't want to hurt her...you know, in the heat of things."

Matt grinned as he pulled Emily down on top of him, capturing her lips again, wondering why he didn't get her a cat sooner.

Emily moaned into Matt's mouth, as his fingers dancing they're way down her stomach, wondering what her boyfriend had planned next.
