Holiday Memories (G.D.)
Tumblr media
this was completely @moonlightdolans27 idea so thanks so much babe hopefully y’all like it?
“Mommy can we get a hot chocolate?” Your four year old daughter Elisa tugged on your sleeve while pointing to one of the many stands.
“Sure baby, c'mon,” You took her hand and let her pull you away.
Grayson watched as you helped her pour marshmallows into her cup and he couldnt help but laugh when she poured so much that there was now a pile floating on top of her hot chocolate. As you two made your way back to where he was standing, Elisa put her hand in your pocket while you held on to two other cups.
“Thanks, love,” He took the cup you offered. You looked down at your daughter to see her eating the marshmallows one by one before they could melt. You all stood around waiting for the tree lighting ceremony to start.
It was something that your city did every year. They would light up the whole plaza park and after, there would a parade and fireworks that followed. Although you do enjoy the holidays yourself, you knew your husband absolutely loved Christmas. The decorations, the lights, the family, just everything about it. So after you had your little girl you decided to make it a tradition to go every year and Ellie took just after Grayson.
She loved Christmas. She was always asking when you could take out the decorations as soon as the weather started getting cold. Grayson was so excited that his little girl was always happy to go Christmas shopping with him. Every time they would come back shopping she would always go running to you excited to show you what they bought.
As the countdown started, you felt constant pulling on your arm.
“Mommy I cant see!” Elisa looked up at you, clearly upset she didnt have a clear view of the giant tree.
“Daddy can you pick me up please? Please!” Not wanting to see his daughter upset Gray passed you back his cup of hot chocolate and scooped her and placed her on his shoulders so she could see everything now.
“How's that, hun?” He held on to her ankles while she placed her hands on his head.
“Better! Thank you daddy!” You watched the scene before you with your heart full. Elisa quickly kissed the top of Grays head as a thank you but went back to paying attention to the giant tree. You loved your little family and there wasnt a single thing you would change about it.
“3… 2… 1… MERRY CHRISTMAS!”
The whole plaza lit up. The giant tree now glowed and looking around you saw the giant smiles on the most important people in your lifes faces. Even though you came every year, it was always like seeing the lights for the first time. The giant tree along with the other trees were all lit up. Other decorations made paths clear with the beautiful lights.
“Mommy look!”
“I see, baby. Its pretty huh?” She nodded her head and went back to looking around. You felt Gray slip his hand into yours and you leaned into his side. Despite all the layers you had on, nothing was ever as warm as him and that was something you were appreciating more than ever with the cold weather.
After taking pictures with the lights and watching the parade and fireworks, you guys decided to head over to the ice rink that Elisa had been begging to go over to. You didnt know how it would go considering she had never been skating before but she said it looked fun and neither you or Gray was ever able to say no to her when she was so excited about something.
After renting the skates and putting them on, it was obvious that she was already scared about simply standing on the blades. You knew if she was really scared and didnt want to she would say something so you decided to let her make that call on her own. She walked between the both of you, clutching both your hands for dear life to make sure she wouldnt fall.
Grayson decided he would go first so he could help her onto the ice while you would be behind her in case she fell. As she took one step on the ice, she slipped a little bit and quickly backed away from the ice and hid her face in your legs while she wrapped her arms around you.
“I dont like it! No!” She cried into your legs and you moved off to the side to let others pass. Although you didnt want to force her to do it, you wanted to be sure.
“Elisa look at mommy please?” You knelt down in front of her and gently put your finger under her chin to lift her head up. “Are you sure you dont want to go? Its not that bad hun”
“Ellie can I tell you something?” Grayson leaned over the railing of the rink. She nodded her head and walked over to him.
“Did you know I taught your mommy how to ice skate?”
“You did?” She looked back at you and you nodded.
“Uh-huh. You're already doing so much better than she was! You were able to walk over here without falling, you did so good!” You rolled your eyes but also laughed at the memory.
“Gray- GRAYSON DO NOT LEAVE ME HERE!” You yelled after him as he started walking away without you. You had never gone ice skating in your entire life and he thought it would be a fun idea. He said he would help you but apparently that help was gone after he helped you lace up the skates correctly.
He turned around to see struggling to find your balance on the blades and couldnt help a laugh from escaping his lips. You looked like a baby deer trying to walk for the first time and it was the funniest thing.
“Dont just stand there! Come help me!” You were holding on to the chairs you were at fully aware of how you looked. A full grown woman screaming for help over simply standing in ice skates. No wonder everyone around kept giving you strange looks.
“I'll make you a deal, babe. You walk over to me from there and I wont leave your side till you get the hang of it.”
“Seriously?” He only nodded his head and leaned against the chairs. Sighing you started taking the smallest steps possible. When a few little kids came running from behind you, it startled you and you fell into the chairs behind you.
“Oh my god, are you okay?” Grayson said between laughs. As much as he felt bad, he knew you werent seriously hurt and couldnt help but laugh at seeing you get so scared over some little kids running around.
“I could have died all because you didnt wanna help me!”
“Sweat heart we both know youre fine, c’mon.” He put his hand out for you to grab onto. You stood up with his help and quickly grabbed onto his arm, not wanting to fall over again. You knew he was laughing at you but you didnt care. The closer he got to ice you started regretting agreeing to this. He let go of you and you grabbed the railing. Grayson got on the ice and held out his hand once again to help you on. As you stepped on, you felt your leg slide from the smooth surface and you quickly stepped back off the ice.
“Nope. Nope, this was fun I had such a great time, can we go now?”
“Babe, give it a shot please?” He gave you that look that he knew you could never say no to. Again, you tried stepping onto the ice and you braced yourself with his arms the whole time until you were completely on the ice.
“Look that wasnt so bad, was it?” You glared up at him and all he did was laugh. He stayed standing in front facing you and he slowly started moving backward.
“No, Grayson no!”
“Relax Y/N, we have to start moving just a little bit, you'll be fine, I promise.”
After some more of him coaching you through it, you were able to let go of him and start going on your own. After an hour or so, you were finally having a good time. You had finally gotten the hang of it and you went from not being able to stand on your own to being chased on the ice by your boyfriend.
“Yes baby, daddy taught me how to go super fast without falling. Dont you wanna give it a try?” She looked between the both of you trying to see if you were trying to trick her but after a few seconds she nodded her head. You lead her back to the entrance and Grayson met you there.
“Okay Ellie, grab onto my arms and slowly step up,” he told her as he held out his arms. You stood behind her ready to catch her if she fell backward.
Once she was on the ice, you could both tell she was freaking out a little bit. “Hey, you're okay, daddy's not going to let you fall I promise.”
You switched with him so now you were in front of her and he was able to hold on to her from behind. You held her hands as he made sure he was ready to help and catch her in case she fell. Slowly, Grayson started moving forward and she grabbed on even tighter to your hands. She slipped a few times but each time she fell safely into his arms and was ready to keep going. After a while she let go of your hands but Gray stayed right behind her.
You skated alongside them and watched with a smile at her and her father sharing a moment together. You knew how much he loved spending time with her and making memories with her. This was definitely something neither one of them would be forgetting.
After a while she said she wanted to try by herself and Grayson stayed a little further behind her just in case. You both watched with pride as she left him and smoothly made her way towards where you were a few feet in front of her.
“Mommy look I did it!” She looked so proud of herself and you couldnt fight the smile making its way to your lips.
“You did! Good job Ellie!” You bent down and gave her a hug. She wanted to keep going by herself so you made sure she didnt go too fast and stayed close by. Grayson came up behind you and wrapped his arms around you.
“You're such a good dad, you know that?” You leaned into him.
“And you're such a great mom, babe. Couldnt do any of it without you.” He placed a kiss on your cheek as you both looked at your daughter.
“She's getting so big… I was thinking of maybe having another one?” You turned around to face him.
“Really?” He asked with a smile on his face. You knew he wanted a big family and you figured Elisa was old enough and you were ready to have another baby.
“Why not? I feel like we're ready dont you think?”
“It's your body hun, so when you're ready, I'm ready. If you want five more or never want another one, I'm happy with what we already have. I would love another one, a little brother or sister for her.” You felt his hand move lower and rest on your stomach. You both knew there was nothing there, but just the thought made you both happy and excited.
Elisa made her way back to you both and she quickly joined in on your hug even though she had no idea what was going on. Grayson picked her up and placed her on his hip and she wrapped her small arms around the both of you as best as she could. You all stood there with each other for a minute, your heart full of love for your beautiful family.
