No I do not own McFLY etc.


Amy's P.O.V

"Lindsey, get up come on its Christmas."

"Dougie I'll get up in my own sweet time."

"Come on its present's time."

I could hear Harry chuckling softly beside me. I opened my eyes.

"Same old Lindsey and Dougie," I said sitting up.

"It's traditional for them to fight Christmas morning, they always have done," Harry replied, "but Dougie has the right idea we should really get up now."

"Yeah, you're just agreeing because you want your presents," I said chucking my pillow at him as I climbed out of bed.

"Damm right," Harry said following my exampling and getting out of bed.

I laughed as I pulled a hoddie over my head.

Once we were both dressed we headed out onto the landing. All seemed calm.

"I guess everyone's downstairs already," Harry said leading the way down to the living room.

"Merry Christmas everyone," I said crashing on the sofa next to Lindsey who was curled up in Dougie's lap. This is also very common for her on Christmas morning.

"Hurry up, we want to start with the presents," Danny said half buried under the Christmas tree.

"Alright chill out," I replied ruffling Lindsey's hair,

"Did you get out of bed voluntary or was it by force?" I asked her.

"By force," Dougie answered for her.

We all laughed as Danny dished out the presents. It turned out George had more than all of us put together.

I ripped opened the first present that Danny threw into my lap. It was a Linkin Park album to replace the one Danny broke a while ago.

"Thanks Danny," I said pulling the next present towards me.

"Thanks Holly, I love it," Lindsey said holding up a new red and black hoddie.

"That's ok," Holly replied, "thanks for the DVD."

We all opened our presents in record time, all showing each other our new presents.

After we put all our wrapping paper in the bin we all went into the kitchen and helped make breakfast for everyone.

We all grabbed a plate and sat down at the table.

"Merry Christmas everyone," Tom said passing round glasses of orange juice.

"Merry Christmas," we all chanted back.

"Morning kids," Mrs. Fletcher said joining us for breakfast. She put her arm around Tom and squeezed his cheeks.

"Merry Christmas my little Tommy," she said.

I snorted into my orange juice causing Amy to burst out laughing, Dougie to choke on his toast and George to look at us like, what the hell is wrong with my family?

"Morning mother," Tom said steering his mum to the kitchen table whacking me on the back as he walked past.

Tom's mum smiled as she sat down at the table with the rest of us.

"Merry Christmas everyone," she said, "right now families will be arriving from twelve o'clock which gives us about a couple hours to get ourselves ready."

"No problem Mrs. Fletcher we'll all be ready and there to help if you need us," Amy assured her as we all nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, you're all sweethearts," Tom's mum replied beaming at us.

"Right we better get a move on," Harry said looking at his watch, "it's going to take two hours to get us all sorted."

We all scrambled to our feet dumping our plates into the sink on our way out of the kitchen.

Three hours later

Amy's P.O.V

"Can you send the extra gravy down to this end," I called down the table.

"It's on its way," Danny shouted back, "and stop hogging all the potatoes."

Everyone laughed as the dishes of food were passed around the table. I cannot believe how many people have managed to fit into this kitchen. It's amazing. There's all of us plus our families squashed around the table. Becca and Noel arrived an hour before everyone else to help us get the house ready. George was sitting between his parents in his highchair in a very cute Christmas pudding outfit Dougie's mum had got him. When that kid grows up and sees the pictures I think he's going to kill us all for putting him in it, should be a fun day.

I glanced nervously at my mum. She was having an in-depth conversation with Harry and I can't hear what they're talking about.

"Are you ok?" Tom asked handing me a plate of vegetables.

"Yeah I'm fine," I replied passing the plate on to Holly.

Tom smiled and went back to his dinner.

Once everyone had finished and couldn't eat anymore we all traipsed into the living room and collapsed on the sofas.

Lindsey's P.O.V

I was following behind Danny on my way to the living room when something pulled on my arm. I turned around.

"What's up?" I asked as Tom stood there rocking back on his heels.

"I was just wondering if you were ok," Tom replied.

"I'm fine, why wouldn't be?" I asked.

"Well it's just that we all have our families here and you don't," Tom replied.

"My family is here," I said glancing towards the living room.

"I meant your parents," Tom said crossing his arms.

"It doesn't bother me that my parents aren't here, my family is here," I replied, "don't worry about me Tom, that's Amy's job."

"Alright, point made, I just wanted to make sure you were ok," Tom said.

I smiled and gave him a hug. Then we both went into the living room to watch Harry and Dougie playing an X-Box tournament. I talked to Dougie's mum for a while and then went and sat with Amy and the girls.

Amy's P.O.V

"Wow your ring is beautiful," Holly said as Becca waved her engagement ring in front of us.

"What are we talking about?" Lindsey said as she sat down on the sofa next to me.

"Becca's ring," I replied.

"Oh let me see," Lindsey said happily. Becca showed her the ring.

I sighed. It's not that I'm not happy for her because I really am, it's just I can't help but remember the diamond ring I have locked away upstairs. That ring should be on my finger.

Never mind, it'll happen one day, I hope.

Later that night

Dougie's P.O.V

I chucked the pile of coats on top of Amy and Lindsey who were slouched on the sofa watching classic Christmas TV.

"What the hell?" Amy exclaimed.

"Come on find your coats we're all going out," I replied pulling on my other shoe.

"Where are we going?" Lindsey asked pulling her jacket out of the pile.

"Don't bother asking," Holly said pushing past me and grabbing her own coat, "they won't tell us anything."

"Shocker," Amy muttered pulling on her shoes and Harry pulled her coat out of the pile.

"Ok, we're all set Danny's already in the car," Tom said joining us in the living room.

"Ok let's go," I said.

Harry pulled Amy to her feet and led her out of the living room. Becca, Holly and Danny followed behind them.

"Come on Lindz, time to go," I said pulling Lindsey up.

"Where are we going?" she whined as I took her out to the car.

"It's a surprise," I replied opening the car door for her.

She scowled and climbed in beside Holly.

Lindsey's P.O.V

Dougie knows I hate surprises. What the hell is he up to? Where are we going?

Tom pulled out of the driveway and out onto the street. He put his foot down and we set off. We had the radio blaring as we travelled down the main road.

We drove for about half an hour before we pulled up to a whole new area full of really tall buildings.

The guys got out of the car and we all followed.

"Why are we standing by a really tall building?" I asked starring up at the building in front of us.

"It's an apartment block. There's four apartments," Tom replied, "one for all of us."

"I'm confused," Amy said looking at Harry.

"Welcome to our new home," Harry said smiling widely.

"Wait a minute, you guys found us a new home?" Holly said.

"Yep, if you want to move in with me," Tom replied pulling her closer to him.

"Of course I do," Holly replied kissing him softly.

"I'm so glad you guys know now, it's been killing me not being able to talk to you about it," Becca said clapping her hands together.

"What? You knew the whole time?" I exclaimed.

"Of course I did, me and Noel are moving into one of the apartments down the road," Becca replied.

"Yeah and who else was going to help pick out my new curtains," Danny said making us all laugh.

"Come on, let's go and check out our apartment," Dougie said grabbing my arm. He pulled me towards the building.

"We've got the ground floor," Dougie said once we had entered the building. He took me over to a big white door behind the towering spiral staircase that was in the main entrance.

Dougie opened the door and led me inside. He turned on the lights. We were standing in a hallway.

"Home sweet home," he said.

I followed Dougie around the apartment. It was everything I'd ever wanted. I was speechless.

There was one room I hadn't been into. I had a feeling Dougie had been saving it to last.

"What's in that room?" I asked pointing at the closed door.

Dougie smiled and took me over to it.

"It's George's nursery," he said pushing the door open.

We both stepped inside. I couldn't believe it. It looked identical to the nursery in the old house.

"How did you manage to do this?" I asked, "It's amazing."

"Well I wanted George to have his old nursery back, so we set to work with some paint," Dougie replied pulling me closer to him, "do you like it?"

"Of course," I exclaimed, "I love it, it's everything I've always wanted. Thank you so much."

"No problem, we better start packing," Dougie replied kissing my neck, "then we can move in as soon as possible."

"I can't wait."

"Oh I almost forgot," Dougie said taking me back out into the hallway, "there's one more thing."

He led me to the kitchen and to the back door. He slid the door open and pulled me outside.

"This is the garden," Dougie said proudly.

The garden was huge. On the patio were eight deckchairs and a massive hot tub.

I raised my eyebrows.

"It's for all the parties," Dougie chuckled.

I looked out across the garden, it was huge. At the bottom was a giant skate ramp.

"Wow that's awesome," I exclaimed.

"Yeah, trust Dougie to put a massive skate ramp in his garden," Amy laughed walking towards us from our back door, "you should really lock your front door."

Everyone else appeared behind her.

"So what do you think?" Tom asked.

"It's perfect," I replied.

"So who's going to be the first in the hot tub?" Danny asked.

"ME!" all the guys shouted running at the tub. They all jumped in one after the other, fully clothed.

"I guess some things never change," Amy laughed as the rest of us watched the guys messing around.

"It's going to be so weird living apart now," Holly said.

"Yeah I know, but we're not that far away," I replied.

"We'll still see each other," Becca said.

"Promise?"

"Promise!"

We all shouted it together sounds like a bunch of giggling school kids.

It was going to be weird not sharing a house with them but its going to be great. I'm pretty sure we'll all be in Tom's kitchen every morning for breakfast.

Everything's going to turn out great.

I suddenly felt something like a raindrop on my face. But it's too cold for rain.

"It's snowing," Amy exclaimed.

I can't believe it, the snow was the icing on the cake. This has been the best Christmas ever.
