Day 1 ~ Usagi & Mamoru
"Merry Christmas, Usako," Mamoru greeted his wife as he brought her breakfast in bed on Christmas morning.
"Merry Christmas, Mamo-chan," Usagi replied, sitting up in their bed and smiling at her husband. The newly married couple was celebrating their first Christmas in their cozy little apartment. They had decided to spend the entire morning by themselves instead of going out to visit their families and friends.
"Did you sleep well?" Mamoru asked as he set the tray down on the bed. Usagi nodded enthusiastically while eyeing the food on the tray in front of her.
"I think I'm still asleep. I was dreaming about breakfast in bed," Usagi replied, her eyes never leaving the tray.
Mamoru chuckled and leaned down to kiss his young wife. "Silly Usako. This is just part of your Christmas surprise," the dark haired man said before sitting down next to her on the bed.
"Really? There's more?" Usagi exclaimed, surprised.
Mamoru nodded as he carefully moved the breakfast tray to Usagi's lap. "It is our first Christmas as a married couple, after all," Mamoru told her.
"But we agreed we wouldn't go overboard," Usagi pointed out as she helped herself to the food.
"It can't be helped," Mamoru replied. He smiled gently and handed his wife a rose that had seemingly materialized out of thin air.
"Mamo-chan! It's the most beautiful rose ever!" Usagi exclaimed in awe.
"It's nowhere near as beautiful as you, Usako," Mamoru said as he set the rose on Usagi's breakfast tray. Usagi blushed brightly as she leaned in to kiss Mamoru's cheek.
"I love you, Mamo-chan," she said softly.
"I love you, too, Usako." The young lovers smiled at each other lovingly for a few moments, breakfast and Christmas forgotten. The only thing that truly mattered to them in that moment was being able to be with the other. After all the trials they had faced, being together was the only gift either of them needed.
"Now, hurry up and finish your breakfast, Usako, so I can give you your other presents," Mamoru instructed after their lovey-dovey moment had ended.
Usagi's blue eyes lit up and in true Usagi fashion, she practically inhaled the food on the tray.
Mamoru laughed endearingly as he watched his odango haired wife. He loved that she still had many of them same traits she'd had when they first met. "You're so cute, Odango Atama," he teased playfully. He hadn't called her that in years but it felt nice to say again.
Usagi's cheeks turned pink. "Mamo-chan!" she squeaked, a little surprised that he used his initial nickname for her instead of calling her 'Usako'.
"It couldn't be helped," chuckled Mamoru as he set down a neatly wrapped rectangular package in front of her.
Usagi looked at him curiously before gently taking the package and unwrapping it. "Jewellery?" she asked him as she held the unwrapped box in her hands.
"You'll see," was all Mamoru said to her.
Usagi lifted the lid off the box and gasped softly. "Oh Mamo-chan!"
The dark haired man smiled and took the box from his wife. "It's not exactly the same as the other one," Mamoru told her as he picked up a star shaped locket and chain from the box. "It doesn't play music, but it does hold a picture," Mamoru told her as he gently put the necklace around her neck and clasped it for her.
"It's beautiful Mamo-chan!" she exclaimed as her eyes began to fill with tears.
"Open it," Mamoru said.
Usagi picked up the locket and opened it. Inside Mamoru had placed a picture of the two them with their future daughter, Chibi-Usa.
"Like it?"
Usagi just threw her arms around her husband and hugged him tightly.
Mamoru smiled and hugged her back. "Merry Christmas, Usako," he whispered into her ear.
