I hope everyone had a fab day yesterday! From Jaz (and also Hannah and Charl because they're fabby and hacked in didn't they?);) As Hannah uploaded this, cheeky shoutout to southparkfan1998 on fanfiction. Anyway, on with Jaz's fic which is the reason we are all here:

"Merry Christmas sweetheart," Nick said as Carla awoke in his arms, he placed a kiss on the top of her head.

"Mmm," Carla mumbled as she sat up slightly, "Merry Christmas."

"Wait a minute," Nick said leaning down to the cupboard by his side of the bed.

"Nick what are you doing?" Carla asked sitting up slightly so Nick could move with more ease.

"I made you up a stocking," Nick announced, "it's only small things but seen as you didn't get much as a child."

Carla covered her mouth in disbelief as Nick passed her a stocking full of neatly wrapped presents; all the wrapping paper was child-like keeping the stocking as true to tradition as possible.

"Nick," Carla said as she took the stocking from him; they both sat up in bed, "This is so sweet thank you."

"Everyone needs a proper stocking at least once in their life," Nick declared as he wrapped one arm around Carla.

Carla carefully took out the first present that lay at the top; she unwrapped the first present to find a bottle off her favourite bubble bath. Nick received a kiss on the cheek before she began to unwrap the rest.
Nick watched her with a glowing smiled on her face. As Carla opened the other presents she slowly built up a collection of typical stocking presents. Nick had included bubble bath, body spray, socks, sweets, nail varnish, pyjamas, lip balm and a few other small bits.
Carla was grateful for every single thing, even the silly small presents that usually no one would ever buy her. She was so grateful because, despite it only being ten in the morning, she'd made this Christmas more magical than any before. He'd created her a memory and a sentiment. He'd listened to her stories of her past and acted upon them; Nick had created Carla the typical stocking you'd receive as a child as she loved it. Every single bit of it.

"There's one more thing," Nick said as he broke the embrace Carla held him in after opening the last thing.

"Nick, you didn't have to do all of this," Carla said as Nick passed her a box.

"No, I had to do this one," Nick said with a smile making Carla puzzled, "Open it then!"

He said like a kid nudging her shoulder making Carla laugh.

She unwrapped the box carefully, as she always did and tears brimmed in her eyes as she took the box out the wrapping.

The box contained a cabbage patch doll; the very one Carla had wished for as a little girl. The doll had dark brown her placed in bunches and she wore a green top and shorts with pink detailing.
Carla held the box at arm's length and a stray tear fell down her cheek but a smile was formed on her face.

"It was supposed to make you smile not cry," Nick said kissing the top of her head and wrapping both his arms around her.

"Nick I can't believe you've done this for me," Carla said as she placed the doll next to her so she could hug Nick properly. She was so grateful because as a child she had practically nothing and now Nick was giving her everything - physically and emotionally.

"Turn the lights on," Carla told Nick as she made them both a coffee on the machine he could never use. The machine that nobody but Carla had ever been able to use.

"The lights are on?"

"The lights on the tree," Cara pointed to her black and white tree which stood with presents beneath it. She brought the coffee over and sat next to Nick on the sofa.

"We're seeing Roy and your family today so do you want to do presents later?" Carla asked as she drank her drink.

"We could do them now; there's still an hour and a half till we're due at Roy's." Nick told her as he moved to sit on the floor so he was nearer to the tree.

"Nick, what are you doing?" Carla asked unimpressed.

"Sitting by the tree," Nick said as if it was obvious.

"Bring the presents over here, why do we have to sit by a tree?"

"Because Carla, it's a tradition. Every year we'd all sit around the tree and open our presents," Nick explained to Carla.

"Oh okay," Carla shrugged and went to sit next to Nick on the floor.

The tree was lit up and underneath sat a collection of presents. There was a few shipped from America, a few from Michelle and then the couples presents to each other.

"You go first," Nick said passing the gift back from Suzie to Carla.

Inside was Carla's favourite sweets and wine from America which made her smile.

"There's one for you from Chelle," Carla told him passing the box over to him.

"That was sweet of her," Nick smiled opening his present.

"She approves of you, although I'm not sure why," Carla winked.

"Open yours from me," Carla said excitedly as she pointed to the box that was wrapped in a dark red colour.

"Okay," Nick laughed. He unwrapped the box then opened the cardboard box that surrounded it. In the box was a white mug with the statement "this is my favourite mug."

"Well Bethany broke your favourite one before so I got you a new one," Carla smiled.
"I love it, thank you," Nick chuckled kissing Carla on the cheek.

"Wait there and I'll get your other one, I couldn't wrap it," Carla said before standing up and going into the bedroom.

"Here," Carla said as she laid an item hing on a hanger on the floor. The present was covered in a black cover and was almost as long as Nick.

"Carla you didn't have to get me anything," Nick said.

"Nicholas I couldn't just get you a mug. Come on unzip it then!" Carla urged.

Nick slowly unzipped the cover to find a grey Ted Baker suit, it was completer with jacket, waist coat, trousers, white shirt and a blue tie. Nick stood back from it and looked it up and down a smile creeping onto his face.

"Carla, I love it. Thank you so much!" Nick said wrapping Carla into a warm hug; he kissed the top of her head before holding her at arm's length, "thank you," he said again before kissing her properly.

"I got you something," Nick said as they sat by the tree once more.

"Nick you've already done enough," Carla said as he handed her a neatly wrapped box.
Carla opened it to find her favourite perfume, chanel chance, and kissed Nick gently.

"Thank you," Carla smiled.

"And then this is your main one," Nick told her passing a gift bag over the top filled with tissue paper.

Carla lifted the tissue paper to find one of the most beautiful gifts she'd ever received.
Inside the gift bag lay a Mulberry Bayswater handbag. It was deep purple in colour and was quite simply stunning.

"Nick," Carla said her tone full of shock and disbelief, "it's gorgeous," she said before lifting it properly out of the gift bag. She held it at arms length before undoing it and looking at all the space and pockets.

"Do you like it?" Nick asked with a slight chuckle.

"I love it, I love you," Cara said placing the bag carefully one the sofa before going to hug Nick. They held each other tightly and when they pulled away Carla kissed him gently. The kiss was slow and short but held so much passion and love.

"Thank you, not just for the presents but for everything," Carla said as she stood loosely in Nick's arms, "thank you for making me feel so happy, thank you for making my childhood wishes come true. Just thank you."

"Carla, you're more than welcome. You mean everything," Nick said smiling.

"You saved me this year Nick, thank you for being perfect. You're perfect for me."

"You saved yourself, you just needed a push in the right direction. I promise I will always give you that push. This year, next year, whenever you need it," Nick said kissing her forehead.

"Merry Christmas," Cara smiled her eyes brimming with tears from Nick's words.

"Merry Christmas sweetheart."
