New Year's Eve at the Swans
Dorthea had been shopping for their New Year's Eve dinner all day. The only thing she did not have to get were the fireworks. She knew that Emma would love to light fireworks at midnight and she wanted it to be a surprise that they even had them.
Dorthea had stumbled over the rockets when she had taken something to the basement the other day. She had nearly forgotten that they were even there. Being a remainder from the 4th of July since she had bought them months in advance but then Emma had disappeared and she had been lying in bed for months so they never had a chance to use them. But now, Emma was back and a way more steady person than she had ever been.
Now their life was amazing.
After the blonde and returned home she had started to unpack and prepare everything for dinner. Loving that her wife had joined her in the kitchen even though she knew how clumsy Emma could be. Instructing her beauty on what to prepare for dinner as she herself cut up the meat and laid it aside to marinade in a BBQ sauce. While Emma had sliced the potatoes, Dorthea had washed the green peas and put them into a pan.
When their dinner preparations were done they had relaxed in front of the lit fireplace for a while. Dorthea had glanced at the Christmas tree from time to time as she stayed wrapped up in Emma´s arms.
As she was sure that the meat had fully marinated Dorthea had slowly wiggled herself out of Emma´s arms and walked into the kitchen. Putting their filets into the oven before she started to fry the potato slices to make French fries for Emma and herself. Cooking the peas when everything else was almost done. She put everything onto the table when two strong arms wrapped around her "Hey, baby. Dinner is ready" Dorthea tilted her head to find Emma´s blue eyes. Emma helped her to put the last few things Dorthea had forgotten on the table and they sat down.
After dinner they returned to their previous seats on the couch. Neither woman was paying too much attention to the movie that was playing on their TV since they were too occupied with cuddling.
At exactly 11:59pm Dorthea felt Emma´s arms turn her around on her lap and soft lips met hers. Enjoying their New Year's kiss as long as she could. When Emma slowly pulled away again the blonde gasped slightly and the widest smile spread on her lips "Happy New Year, my beautiful wife."
The women were watching the fireworks outside of their house for a little before Dorthea finally told Emma about the fireworks she had stacked in the basement. Nothing could compare to the excited bouncing of her true love. Emma´s glowing eyes and super wide smile were all she ever needed to be happy. Lazily following her very impatient girl outside when the taller woman kept nagging her.
Lighting the fireworks went without any incidents and Dorthea more than loved how Emma pressed a kiss to her lips every time she returned to her. They were watching the lit up sky with awe and wide eyes. Both were getting cold quickly and started to shiver. Dorthea wrapped Emma into her blanket and guided her back inside where they got out of their coats and cuddled back onto the couch.
