A storm had hammered the East Coast on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and on Christmas morning, residents of Nottingham awoke to a blanket of snow. An eerie quiet settled upon the city normally bounding with life, even on a holiday. Most families would spend the day at home surrounded by loving family, warmed by hot chocolate and opening presents, and Paul and Theo were planning on doing the same.
While many woke up to excited children bouncing on the bed and babbling about Santa's arrival, they were afforded a later morning. (At least this year.) Since he was a nocturnal being, however, he had taken the time while Theo was still asleep to set up all of his gifts for her under their tree in the correct order - assorted wrapped bundles plus two mewing kittens with red bows tied around their necks. He brought Commissioner Gordon into their room so he would not disturb the small creatures and climbed back next to his girlfriend, still asleep soundly, for a few more hours.
When he woke up again, it was just passed 10 AM, and enough snow had collected on the windowsill to obscure the usually clear view of the street. He turned over and draped an arm gently around Theo's waist, which had begun to swell. Trailing a line of kisses from her neck to her jawline to her ear, he whispered, "Merry Christmas, Theo. Time to wake up!"
