Nikki groaned as she collapsed onto the sofa in her living room. Glancing at the clock she saw that it was nearly eleven o'clock and leant her head against the back of the sofa and let out a long sigh. Leo had just left from spending the day with her and Harry and she was thoroughly exhausted. Feeling pressure next to her on the sofa, Nikki cracked her eyes open and smiled at her husband who had just sat down next to her.
"I've eaten too much" she groaned and leant back against Harry who chuckled "I'm just not going to move at all"
"We have to go to bed" Harry mumbled against her cheek as he gave her a kiss and Nikki just shrugged and stretched her legs out so she was laying on the sofa.
"I'll stay here all night, I cant move"
Harry tried to stifle his laugh in Nikki's shoulder but she turned to glare at him.
"It's Christmas Nikki, everyone eats lots at Christmas"
"Harry, next year remind me not to eat as much" Nikki told her husband who smiled and nodded.
"Are you going to bed?" he asked and she shook her head
"No, I'll sleep here"
Harry raised an eyebrow behind her back and a grin spread across his face, he moved his arms slightly and quickly scooped Nikki into his arms, laughing when she squealed loudly.
"Shh" he whispered "You'll wake the children"
Nikki glared at him slightly then kissed him.
"and it would have been your fault" she mumbled "are you taking me to bed or not?"
"Yes my love" Harry sighed dramatically and preceded to carry Nikki up to their bedroom as she giggled sleepily.
A short one-shot dedicated to those, like me, who ate too much on Christmas day...and will probably also do that on Boxing day as well. ;)
Hope you all had a great Christmas!
