It was the first Christmas Kurt and Blaine spent as fiancées living together in their tiny Bushwick apartment that they shared with Rachel and Santana. The smell from Kurt's peppermint candle filled the air. Kurt and Blaine are hard at work at the kitchen table decorating ornaments to put on their humble Christmas tree. It was the biggest tree they could fit in the living area barely 4 feet tall but it did its job just the same.

Blaine holds up his finished ornament for Kurt to see, it is a red and blue striped bowtie and Kurt recognizes it immediately.

"Is that…?" He pauses.

"Mmmhmm." Blaine hums proudly nodding his head with the same cheeky grin that Kurt loves "Do you like it?"

The ornament is decorated to look like the bowtie Blaine wore when he proposed to Kurt that April. "Awww Blaine, I love it." All of the emotion from that day starts to come back to Kurt and his eyes start to water.

"Aww baby baby baby don't cry." Blaine says as he moves in closer wiping a stray tear from Kurt's cheek

"I'm sorry… I just… I love you so much" He says.

"I love you too." Blaine whispers giving Kurt a quick peck on the lips "Merry Christmas baby."

"Merry Christmas." Kurt echoes.
