A/N: Four more days! Here's the next story!

~Teddy X Chiro~

A Special Gift

The scent of the Christmas tree hit Chiro as he walked through the door, along with peppermint and hot chocolate. His body shivered in delight as the warmth from the apartment engulfed his body. The soft Christmas music made him smile as he slowly walked into the kitchen, his lover standing there with two steaming mugs, humming to the song.

"I'm home, babe," he spoke softly, wrapping his arms around her waist. She smiled, turning her body so she could fully face him. He had to admit, every time he saw her, she seemed more beautiful. God, she always made his heart race and flutter about.

"Welcome home~" She leaned forward, pecking his lips. He could feel his face warm up. "I made some hot chocolate! I was thinking we could watch some movies and cuddle on the couch!"

"Sounds amazing, babe," His smile was so big, it almost seemed to hurt. He released the white-haired girl, allowing her to grab her mug, as he grabbed his. They then walked into the living room, Chiro's arm around her shoulder.

That's how most of the night was, both G-Kings sitting on the couch with a blanket around them, finishing off the hot chocolate and cuddling together, joking around about San Paro and the enforcers. Chiro placed gentle kisses on her neck and temple occasionally, making her smile and giggle a bit. Teddy looked at the Christmas tree they had in their apartment, a smile on her face as the lights reflected in her sapphire eyes.

"Ya know," started Chiro, catching her attention. "This is probably the best Christmas I've ever had. Well, minus me having to work this morning..."

"Yeah. But, it's still nice," she agreed, leaning up to kiss him. He smiled, arms wrapping around her waist as he buried his face in her neck, inhaling her sweet scent. He could still remember the day she walked into his shop, her sapphire eyes and white hair catching his attention, and making him cease the tattoo he was working on. God, she was so beautiful. He was lucky to have her. He just sometimes wished she wasn't a foot-soldier. It always scared him whenever Arlon sent her on a missions. Enforcers and traitor teammates were after her, and he knew this. Yeah, sometimes the missions would run smoothly with no bullets having to fly, but mostly, it was against those fuckers. Sure, she had other teammates who would help protect her during a mission, and that Misfit, Rabbit, who would sometimes see her in trouble and help out, but she was usually alone. Many times she promised to be safe, but dammit, she still came home with new bruises and wounds.

"Merry Christmas, babe," Chiro murmured, removing himself from her neck to kiss her. She just smiled at him, sapphire eyes lit with pure happiness. "I uh... I got something for you. I hope you like it."

"Really?" The Mexican got up, nearly skipping into their room. Teddy sat there, a smile on her face, hands resting gently on her belly. Chiro soon returned, a purple velvet box in his hand.

"Sorry I didn't wrap it," he spoke, handing it to her.

"It's fine!" She gently took hold of the box, the velvet that covered it feeling amazing against her skin. She opened the top, gasping at what was inside. It was an emerald bridal necklace, seven teardrop emeralds hanging from it, as the eighth was a heart, diamonds accenting it. "Chiro, this is beautiful!"

"I saw it, and I thought of you," he told her, a smile on his face. "You like it, right?"

"I love it!" she squealed, putting it beside her on the couch and getting up to hug him tightly. He returned the hug, giving her a kiss.

"I'm glad," He reached for the necklace, gently pulling it out of the box and putting it on his love. She turned around once he was done, her smile so bright and happy.

"I have a present for you, too~" she spoke, earning a surprised look. "Take a guess!"

"Are you gonna stop being a foot-soldier?" he asked, though she shook her head.

"Nope! It's something you always wanted!" she replied. He thought for a moment, before shrugging.

"I dunno... What?" She wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him.

"I'm pregnant!" Chiro looked at her, face blank.

"Teddy, don't even joke," he spoke, his voice soft. By the smile on her face, he knew this wasn't some sick prank. He smiled, giving her a bone-crushing hug, face hiding in her neck. "Fuck yes! Thank you, God!"

They stood there, holding each other in a warm embrace. He smiled at her, his dark brown eyes lit with pure joy.

"This is the best Christmas ever," he murmured, kissing her. "I love you, babe."

"I love you, too, Chiro."
