I sighed and rubbed my eyes as I rolled over onto my stomach, the sound of the television reaching my ears and a warm hand was on my back, rubbing me. I smiled and turned my head and looked up at the man next to me. Kenny was focused on whatever was on TV that he didn't notice I was awake until I wiggled my hips. He finally looked down at me and smiled. "Merry Christmas," I smiled as he leaned down and kissed my forehead. "Merry Christmas, kitten. I didn't wake you, did I?" I shook my head and sat up slightly, propping myself up on my elbow. "You are absolutely gorgeous," he smiled, caressing my cheek, "how's your leg?" "No pain, just feels swollen like it's in a vice or something," I said, slowly rolling over onto my back. "Now that's a sight," he smirked, his eyes on my bare chest. "Shut up," I giggled and sat up, rubbing my leg. "Pain?" "No. Just stiff," I replied as he pulled me closer to him. I smiled as he pressed his lips against my forehead. "Last night was amazing," he whispered, "I can't wait for you to be one hundred percent so I don't have to hold back." I blushed and looked up at him as he winked at me. "We should get dressed and head downstairs. I'm sure that Dad is in the kitchen cooking a big breakfast, family tradition." He nodded and got out of bed and I bit my lip as I looked at his muscular body. "Need help," he smirked when he saw me staring. "N-no," I said and slowly got up, careful not to put too much weight on my leg as I walked over to the dresser and grabbed some panties and a bra, putting them on before walking over to my closet. I looked through my clothes before settling on my young bucks sweat pants and a black sweater. I sighed and stretched as I got dressed and sat down as Kenny grabbed my brace and put it back on me. "I hate this," I mumbled as he tightened it. "I know, kitten, but don't worry. It'll be off in no time," he reassured me and helped me to my feet. "I hope so. I'm ready to get back in the ring and wrestle." "In due time. Now let's go eat." I smiled and nodded, walking out of the bedroom and headed downstairs.
The smell of food hit our noses the moment we walked into the kitchen where Felix was cooking and Adam was sitting at the table. "Merry Christmas, you two," I said as I made my way over to the table and sat down. "Merry Christmas to you too," Felix said as he brought over a plate for me and kissed my forehead."Thanks, Dad," I smiled and picked up my fork and began to eat. "It's been a long time since we've had Christmas together," Adam chuckled, looking at me, "I'm glad that I won't be alone this time. I get to hang out with my pals and have great food." "It's always better to spend Christmas with people you love rather than be alone. It's very depressing," I said as Felix passed out the plates and finally sat down. "Yeah. I'm usually with my parents or home playing Street Fighter," Kenny said in between bites. "You play Street Fighter," Felix asked. "Oh no," I sighed as Kenny nodded. "Well, I have to test your skills, son. Let's see what the great Kenny Omega has outside of the ring," Felix smirked. Adam patted me on the shoulder as I shook my head at my dad and Kenny gushing over Street Fighter as we ate breakfast.
After breakfast, I was sitting on the floor with King while Kenny lazily played with my hair. "Alright, Angel. Ready?" "Ready for what," Kenny asked as Felix moved me away from the couch to an open area in the living room. "Yes, please," I said, laying on the floor as King laid next to me, licking my cheek. Felix grabbed my right leg, removing the brace, and slowly bend it, watching my reaction. I took a deep breath as the tightness I felt in my leg started to loosen. "That feels so much better," I said as he continued to move my leg. "I know my daughter. You don't need some silly brace. You just need to stimulate the leg so you don't have a clot." "But the doctor wants her to..." Adam tapped Kenny on his shoulder and shook his head. "No American doctor knows my daughter better than me. I know what's best," Felix said firmly. I winced slightly as he applied pressure to different parts of my leg, avoiding the area where I had stitches. "Thanks, Dad." "Anything for my favorite girl. Now let's get you up," he smiled and lifted me up onto my feet. I put some weight on my leg and attempted to walk, lifting up my leg and putting it back down, repeating it as the pressure began to subside. I gingerly walked over to the couch and sat down next to Kenny, smiling as I looked at my leg. "I'll be back in a ring in no time." "I don't want you pushing yourself, Kitten," Kenny sighed, rubbing my shoulder. "He's right. Take your time before you hurt yourself," Adam added. "Fine. Relax. I just needed the pressure to go away. I'm not going to go lift weights or run on the treadmill. I just needed to move," I said, petting King. "Okay. You're right. It's better to keep that leg moving so I'll help you if you need me," Kenny said, kissing my cheek. "Thanks. Now everyone's gifts are under the tree." "Already opened mine. Thanks for the awesome shirts. You designed them yourself, didn't you," Adam smiled and I nodded. Kenny got up and walked over to the tree, looking around until he picked up two gifts and walked back over to the couch and handed me a red gift. "For you," he smiled before opening his gift. I smiled as he pulled out a customized black leather jacket with his picture on the back. "Wow. This is amazing. How did you...?" I smiled and kissed his cheek. "Fun fact, I dabble in fashion. It's a hobby." "That's an understatement," Adam chuckled, "Kenny, she makes the best shirts ever. She could probably design some new stuff for us if she put her mind to it." "Really," Kenny smirked and looked at me, "maybe we will have to put your skills to the test once you're all better." I glared at Adam who simply stuck his tongue out at me. "Angel, can I use your car to go pick up some groceries for dinner later," Felix asked. "Car... I need to see about getting a new one, but yeah, the none total car is free to use, Daddy," I sighed, scratching my head. "I will talk to the insurance company for you, Angel. I can be very persuasive." I giggled and nodded as I got comfortable on the couch, resting against Kenny. "I'll go with you, if that's okay. I need to get some things myself," Adam said and Felix nodded before they stood up and got ready to leave. "Sour Skittles?" "You know me so well, Adam," I giggled. "Anything that's junk food," he pointed at Kenny who held up his thumb. "We'll be back," Felix said as he grabbed the keys and they both walked out of the house. "Now that we're alone," Kenny smirked and kissed me then moved away when King barked at him. "He doesn't want you kissing his mother," I teased as Kenny sighed. "Can you tell your son to go away so we can have some alone time?" I giggled and shook my head. "He wants cuddles. Can't just ignore him." "I need you more," he mumbled, kissing my neck before moving again as King jumped onto the couch and sat between us. I giggled as Kenny stared at King who simply wagged his tail. "King, down. Now," I said firmly and King hopped off the couch and laid on the floor as I moved closer to Kenny, kissing his cheek. "Sorry, my son is very protective of me," I teased as he rolled his eyes and pulled me into his lap. "Whatever. You're still my queen so he better get used to it," he whispered before kissing me. I smiled against his lips as the kiss deepened and I managed to readjust myself in his lap so I was facing him and could wrap my arms around his neck. His hands slid up and down my back slowly before resting on my hips. "Think we have time for a little us time before the others get back," he whispered as he stood up, holding me in his arms. "Hm. I think so. My dad likes to find every sale possible and walk every aisle." He smiled as he carried me upstairs. "Good. I have plenty of time for you then," he chuckled as he carried me to the bedroom and kicked the door closed before we landed in bed for some much needed alone time.
Two hours later, we were getting dressed when Felix knocked on the door. "When you two are done fooling around, I would like you to come downstairs," he chuckled from the other side of the door before leaving. "I think we just got caught," Kenny chuckled as he pulled me up to my feet. "I was never good at hiding stuff from my dad," I shrugged as we walked out of the bedroom. "You were pretty loud in there," he whispered in my ear then laughed when I playfully hit him in the chest as we walked downstairs. Adam held up a large bag of sour Skittles and a bag of chips for Kenny. "Again, you're awesome. Thanks, Adam," I said and took the skittles as Kenny took the chips and sat next to me on the couch. "It's time for me to test your skills," Felix said, holding up the game controller. "Oh no," I sighed and immediately stood up as Kenny smirked and grabbed his controller. "Bring it on, Felix." I moved to sit on the love seat with Adam as Felix and Kenny began to play. "Think this will be an all day thing," Adam asked, looking over at me. "Big time. Which means that I will be the one cooking today," I giggled and stood up. "Um could you use some help? Or maybe just the company," Adam offered as he helped me up. "Sure. I could use the company so thank you." He nodded as he followed me into the kitchen and sat at the counter as I got everything that I needed and began cooking.
"Damn it!" I looked at Adam who simply shook his head when we heard my dad yell. "He definitely lost and you so owe me a shopping trip," I teased as he hung his head. "Fine. Don't expect me to walk behind you while you're shopping." "Fiiine," I giggled and began to grab some plates and started fixing everyone a plate and prepared the table. Kenny walked in, a big smile on his face as Felix walked in after him and sat down at the table. "Angel, keep this man. Any man who can wipe the floor with me in Street Fighter is definitely worthy of being with my daughter," Felix said as I sat his plate in front of him. "Dad!" Kenny chuckled as he grabbed his own plate and sat down. "Thank you. I must say that you did give me quite the challenge. You're almost as good as Austin Creed." "Don't tell him that because he'll try to challenge Xavier next," I sighed as I placed Adam's plate down then poured everyone a drink before taking my seat next to Kenny. "Xavier Woods... That friend of yours who you always post pictures and videos with," Felix asked in between bites. I glared at Kenny who simply smiled at me as I looked at Felix and nodded. "I need to challenge him to a game then." I sighed and shook my head as Adam and Kenny laughed as we enjoyed our dinner together.
Later that evening after dinner, we all sat around in the living room, watching TV and chatting. I was leaning on Kenny, his arm draped around me and King laid out in our laps. "I'm surprised that Nick and Matt didn't show up. They're usually here by now," I said, looking at my phone. "They come over every holiday," Adam asked and I nodded. Kenny and Adam shared a look before Kenny began to speak. "Listen, they probably didn't want you to know this, but they've mostly come over because they know that you get lonely in this big house, whether you want to admit it or not. They said that you'd spend days and days trapped in here and only go out when they drag you out. They've been worried about you because you were living like a hermit," Kenny explained, rubbing my arm. "And before you even think it, they didn't hang out with you out of sympathy. They love you and wanted to make sure you were okay and happy and put a smile on your face," Adam added. "Wow. I really am trouble, huh," I chuckled weakly, scratching the back of my neck, "I just got used to being alone and I was accepting it, I guess I didn't see anything wrong with being alone and shut in. I'm sorry." "No. I'm partly to blame after everything that happened between us," Adam sighed and stood up. "I'm leaving in the morning. I already have a ride so no worries about taking me to the airport. Thank you for everything, Ash. Make sure you don't push yourself too much. I'll see you two in Japan." With that, he walked out of the room and went to the guest bedroom and closed the door. Felix stood up and walked over to me, kissing my cheek. "I'm headed to bed also. Good night, kids." I smiled then looked at Kenny once we were left alone. "I made Matt and Nick worry about me and Adam feels like he's to blame. This is terrible." Kenny hugged me, kissing the top of my head. "Shh. Don't even try to blame yourself. Nick and Matt think of you as their sister so of course they'll worry. Adam is still guilty over how things ended between you two, but he's slowly getting over it and now you two are friends again. Besides," he smirked, staring at me, "if Matt and Nick didn't drag you out, I definitely would have. We'd be regulars at all of the nearest arcades." "You're so weird," I giggled, rolling my eyes. "There's that beautiful smile I love so much." "Shut up and let's go to bed," I smiled, tapping King on his stomach and he jumped out of our lap and laid next to the back door. Kenny turned off the TV and pulled me to my feet before we turned off the lights and went upstairs to the bedroom and got ready for bed. I climbed into bed and sighed as Kenny removed my brace from my leg and sat it down before laying next to me, resting his head on my chest. "Our first Christmas. I think it was a success. Don't you," he asked, smiling at me. "Yeah. Way better than just sitting here alone until Matt and Nick showed up and hung out for a while before I'm left alone again. And my dad and I are back on good terms. I guess that's one good thing that came from the accident. I have my dad back, Adam and I are friends again, and I have the best man in the world." "Hm. I wonder who you're referring to." I rolled my eyes as he placed a kiss on my cheek. "Just wait until New Years. We'll start it off the right way, a kiss under the beautiful fireworks. I just hope that your dad won't beat me down for kissing you." I giggled and turned us over so I was laying on top of him. "He might not. Then again, you did beat him in his favorite game so he might get his revenge." "But what was I supposed to do, let him win?" "No. He'll really kick your ass then. No worries. You two seem to hit it off really well so you should be safe for now." "Good because I don't plan to go anywhere anytime soon," he mumbled, kissing my lips. "Good because I'd hunt your ass down if you tried to leave." He chuckled and gave me another kiss before we finally fell asleep.
