Replacements and Twinkling Lights

A firefighter Abby x Reader christmas special

Heyyyyy, how yall doin’? So i know i said i would have this up on Christmas eve and it’s now the 30th but it’s the holidays i can’t be held accountable for any promises made✋🤚 that being said it’s here now so enjoy!!

Warnings: none, yall know by now-just fluff

You were going back and forth for months over what to get Abby for Christmas. You loved your wife but when it came to any holiday consisting of gift-giving…you loathed her.

She was absolutely impossible with a capital I to shop for. The woman never wanted anything, and if by chance she did yearn for something she fucking bought it. 

For weeks you would ask, “Baby, I need ideas, what do you want for Christmas?” 

And she would, not surprisingly and wholly unhelpfully answer, “Baby your love is the best gift I could ask for.” 

You just roll your eyes. God, she was a sentimental one. Sure, the statement was nice and, despite how much you didn’t want to admit it, made your heart melt into a gooey puddle at your feet, but it was nowhere near helpful in the instance of gift giving. 

You loved her every day, Christmas would be no different. No, you needed something physical to get her. Your love language was gift-giving. Usually, this was your superpower; giving the perfect gift, specially curated for each receiver. Your wife was different. You wanted it to be perfect, to be flawless. 

A week before christmas the idea struck you. Abby came home complaining that she had lost one of her favorite earrings at work. She took them off, expecting a day of saving lives and fighting fires, which she got, but somewhere in the mess she lost her left earring.

At first you planned to go back to the jewelry shop and see if you could get a new, replacement pair for her. You still planned to do this but on top of that you figured you could tap into your creative side and sew her a little pouch to keep her jewelry safe at work.

It was perfect, you when to the jewelry store and lucky you that had another pair, step one was a success.

Then you went to the local fabric store and picked up a small square of plane black fabric.

You went back and forth on what pattern fabric you wanted but ultimately decided to go with black and then to embroider a cute design on the front.

It turned out so cute. the little pouch had a loop so she could hook it onto her keychain, a snap button closer, and your wedding date with flowers embroidered on the front.

You hoped she would like it.

As you both sat on the couch christmas morning, your legs thrown over Abby’s lap, the fire place roaring, and Alice curled up under the coffee table, you watched your wife grab the small box containing her present.

You knew she’d like the replacement earrings, but you weren’t sure how she would react to the pouch. Sure it would be useful but she hadn’t really expressed the need for one, you just kinda assumed.

Suddenly you felt slightly insecure about the gift. What if she thought it was tacky? Maybe you shouldn’t have embroidered the wedding date.

You held you breath as she unwrapped the paper oh so carefully, she was one of those people who peeled the tape back rather than ripping.

The second ticked by achingly as she inspected the pouch, reading the words, flipping it over, bringing it closer to her eyes.

You couldn’t take it anymore, “Look inside.”

She opened the button and peeked in. A smile broke out on her face as she pulled the earrings out.

“Is this a replacement for the ones I lost?” she held up the little bag containing the jewelry.

“Yeah, do you like it?” your voice was bordering on meek.

“Like it? Baby I love it!” She pulled you into her side, tackling you with a bear hug.

You huffed a sigh of relief and sank into her hug a smile of your own slipping out.

“Did you make this?” She held up the little pouch.

“Yeah,” You look up at her, resting your chin on the edge of her shoulder.

“Are you serious? How could I not love it?” she lets out a soft chuckle and places a light kiss on your forehead.

Suddenly all your worries melted away.

“Okay, okay, what’s my gift?” you sat up onto your knees beside her like an excitable german shepherd.

She laughed, laying back and dragging you with her. You ended you slumped on her chest, your legs in between hers.

“Paitensce is a virtue my love,” her hands rubbed up and down your back, “well your main gift is coming later tonight,” she raise her eyebrows in a suggestive way.

You couldn’t help but roll your eyes, but secretly a little flame flickered in the pit of your stomach.

“Must you always cheapen the moment Abby Anderson?” you teased.

“When it comes to you wife? Yes, absolutely,” she punctuated the statement with a soft smack on your bum.

You gasped, “Abby Anderson there are children in the room!”

Your wife just looked at you with a mixture of confusion and bewilderment. You pointed to your dog who was still snuggled tightly into the same spot she had been all morning.

Abby just hmm’d, “Your other present, however, is just under the tree there,” she pointed and you spotted a small bag resting under a low hanging branch.

You stared for a moment and then turned back and nuzzled back into Abby’s chest.

She chuckled, “What you don’t want your last present? It’s the best one.” she whispered that last bit in an enticing way.

“No, not yet. I just wanna stay here for a little while,” you sighed

“Okay baby.” You couldn’t see her face but you knew she was smiling, could hear it in her voice.

what did we think? I did write this on a long haul flight at 2am my time so take that as you will. I’ll fix the mistakes as i find them trust, i just wanted to get this out before the new year. Okay bye bye 👋🏼

“we saw the universe and created taxes”

but isn’t that the beauty of it. we saw this massive unending thing, void of rules or explanation, and created a life here. for all we know we are completely alone in expansive nothingness, yet we live here. We build trains, and skyscrapers, and create rules. We also make gardens, and bake cakes and decorate them with little wax sticks on fire for each year that a person is alive. We wear paper crowns on Christmas, and kiss each others cheeks as way of greeting. We paint vast landscapes and singular flowers. We write books about nothing and about everything. We celebrate the masters of the past and hope to out do them tomorrow. So yes we saw the universe and created taxes but that also means we created life in a place so unfit for it. We persisted.

how to get over the fact that the first girl you loved will never know you loved her, was the person who hurt you the most, literally gave you an eating disorder, and you still have so much resentment and love all tangled together in this ugly web?
