ok I don't care that I did a Christmas one already! Winter rocks so I wrote another! Also I've been obsessed with singing this song for hours even though its fall. Deal with it!
"Oh the weather outside is frightful. But the fire is so delightful. Since we've no place to go. Let it snow let it snow let it snow." I sing quietly as I sip my hot chocolate. Music plays faintly in the background. I snuggle closer into the couch, a blanket wrapped tightly around me. A blizzard rages outside and I watch the fire flicker in the fireplace.
The house is quiet except for my singing and the music. My brother, Caleb, is out with his girlfriend Susan. He told me he's planning on proposing to her on Christmas. My mom and dad died in a car crash years ago. So now it's just me and Caleb in the house. I'm 21 years old. Well at this moment it's just me.
The wind rages, making moaning noises outside. I hold my coco up to my lips, letting the warmth fan over my face. It's pretty cold since the furnace broke and the only warmth is from the fire.
"It doesn't show signs of stopping. And I brought some corn for popping. The lights are turned way down low. Let it snow let it snow let it snow." The lyrics flow softly from my lips. I sigh quietly and put my hot chocolate down on the coffee table.
Suddenly the doorbell rings.
"Who could that be?" I wonder out loud. Who the heck would be outside when there's a huge blizzard. I stand and go to the front door. I. Surprised when I open it.
There stands Tobias, my boyfriend of three years. Yah, we've been together for a while. He has a large coat on, a scarf around his neck, and a pink tint to his cheeks. In summary, he looks adorable. Blush colors my cheeks and I wrap the blanket tighter around me. My pjs are fairly thin.
"Hey Tobias." He gives me one of the heart melting smiles. A warm, tingly feeling fills me stomach. I blush darker and stand to the side. "C-come in." Even after all the time we've been together, I'm still a bit shy. He steps inside, shaking the snow off his perfect, messy brown hair. I notice he has his guitar slung on his back as he rubs his hands together. "Would you like some hot chocolate?" He nods.
"Yah." He replies int hat gruff, deep voice I love. I smile shyly and run to the kitchen. I hear the door close and the shuffling of feet. I mix some coco and put it in the microwave. After a few seconds it warm and I take it back to Tobias. I find him sitting on the couch, relaxed. I sit next to him, a few inches apart.
"Here." I hand him the steaming cup. He smiles and takes a sip.
"It's freezing out there." He says and shivers a bit. He's removed his coat and scarf. Now he's just wearing some jeans a black shirt that doesn't look that thick. He holds the cup with both hands as to warm him up.
"Yah, why were you outside anyways?" My eyebrow scrunched, slightly concerned.
"You told me yesterday about Caleb going out. When the blizzard started I didn't feel comfortable with you being alone, so I decided to come over." He says nonchalantly even though it's such a sweet gesture. His normally strict and uncaring personality always drops when it comes to me. He's always been so kind and warm.
"Thanks Toby." I scoot over and cuddle up to him. He wraps an arm around my shoulders so I can snuggle deeper into his side. Even though he says he's cold, warmth radiates off of him. I sigh softly, closing my eyes. Then a song comes on. I smile. My grey-blue eyes dart up to his sparkling blue eyes. He smirks. We both love this song.
"I really can't stay..." I sing softly.
"But baby it's cold outside." He sings. He's actually really good.
"I really can't stay"
(But baby it's cold outside)
"I've got to go away"
(But baby it's cold outside)
"This evening has been"
(Been hoping that you'd drop in)
"So very nice"
(I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice)
He grabs my chilly hand. I blush slightly.
"My mother will start to worry "
(Beautiful what's your hurry)
"And Father will be pacing the floor"
(Listen to the fireplace roar)
"So really I'd better scurry"
(Beautiful please don't hurry)
"Well maybe just a half a drink more"
(Put some records on while I pour)
"The neighbours might think"
(But baby it's bad out there)
"Say what's in this drink?"
(No cabs to be had out there)
"I wish I knew how"
(Your eyes are like starlight now)
"To break the spell"
(I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell)
He kisses my hair.
"I ought to say no no no sir"
(Mind if I move in closer?)
He brings me into his lap.
"At least I'm gonna say that I tried"
(What's the sense of hurting my pride?)
"I really can't stay"
(Oh baby don't hold out)
"AH BUT ITS COLD OUTSIDE!" We both sing.
"I simply must go'"
(But baby it's cold outside)
"The answer is no'"
(But baby it's cold outside)
"The welcome has been"
(How lucky that you dropped in)
"So nice and warm"
I lay my head on his chest.
(Look out that window at that storm!)
My sister will be suspicious
(God your lips look delicious!)
My brother will be there at the door
(Waves upon a tropical shore)
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
(God your lips are delicious )
he kisses me softly. I blush darker.
Well maybe just a cigarette more
(Never such a blizzard before)
I got to get home
(But baby you'd freeze out there)
Say lend me a comb
(It's up to your knees out there)
You've really been grand
(I thrill when you touch my hand)
But don't you see?
(How can you do this thing to me?)
There's bound to be talk tomorrow
(Think of my life-long sorrow)
At least there will be plenty implied
(If you caught pneumonia and died)
I really can't stay
(Get over that old out)
AH BUT ITS COLD OUTSIDE!
(Where you could be going when the wind is blowing and it's cold outside?)
BABY ITS COLD, COLD OUTSIDE!
I giggle quietly as we finish. He chuckles lightly, the sound vibrating through his firm chest. I snuggle into him.
"Have I told you that you have a beautiful voice." He murmurs. I glance up and nod.
"Many times. You're a good singer too." He smiles and kisses my forehead. I lean up and kiss his forehead before standing up. It's getting sorta late. "I have an idea. Since it's getting late and that blizzard is still raging, you're gonna stay the night." He looks sorta surprised as I pull him to my bedroom. He stops and tugs me by my wrist when we reach the door way. I'm pulled against his strong chest, eyes wide with surprise. He smirks down at me and presses our foreheads together.
"Mistletoe." He whispers. I glance up to see that, indeed, there is a small plant hanging from the door frame. I look back into his crystal blue eyes.
"Well tradition is tradition." I say quietly. He smirks bigger and leans down. I close my eyes as his lips fit to mine. It's soft and warm, our lips moving in sync. I reach up and run my hand through his hair and grip onto the hair and the nape of his neck. He holds my waist firmly and pushes me against the doorframe gently. The kiss slowly grows heated. His hands move to grip my hips and he gets a bit rougher with the kiss. It doesn't bother me though as I match his roughness. We pull away, both gasping for air. He kisses my cheek before pulling me to the bed.
He holds back the covers so I can crawl in. He gets under the covers on the other side. I scoot over to him slightly. He pulls me to him so my back presses against his chest. His legs bend to match mine and his arms wrap around my waist. I sigh and cuddle into his warmth. The blizzard completely forgotten.
