Underneath The Mistletoe.


(sequal to Bubba's first Christmas)


It wasn't long before the rest of the family arrived. The first to arrive was Mia and Brian, with their two children, Jack and Daisy.


Only downside to being in a family full of petrol heads is thst sometimes the new toys can be a bit loud. Poor Brian always found this out the hard way when he was awoken from his nap by the loud roar of the blue Nissan r34 skyline.


Letty just about managed to calm him down before company came inside. "sorry bout that, kid. These cars can be kinda loud can't they? You'll learn to love them like me and your daddy do though. Then you'll want to hear nothing but them" she said as she cradled him close.


Brian just snuggled closer "mama" he said into her neck. She dried his small brown eyes and then said "come on little man, let's go see your cousins."


A year ago, Letty would have thought the idea of her being a mother to be impossible. But once she had been introduced to the little boy in her arms by her husband, she quickly formed a bond with the boy and loved him like her own.


She walked down the stairs, boy in arms, to hear Dom greeting his sister and brother in law along with their niece and nephew. "hey guys, merry Christmas" she said to the guests.


"aunt Letty!!" the two children yelled with glee. "we missed you" they both siad as they hugged Letty. "I missed you guys too." Brian tried to wriggle free of his step mother's hold. "looks like this little guy missed you too."


Brian was sat on the ground while his cousins came closer to him. He looked at them and started clapping his little hands and smiling. "hey little b. We missed you too." Jack said as he gave little Brian a hug.


Roman, Tej and Ramsey showed up after that. Them being the fun uncles and aunt, meant that they came from anything except empty-handed. They brought 3 mountains of presents along with them.


Mia, Dom and Brian took care of the food. While the rest of the adults conversed with one another. The three kids playing with each other and having fun.


Little Brian had found something on his mountain of presents, it was spikey and green, he tried putting it in his mouth but quickly found out it didn't taste good. His face scrunched up as he made a "yucky" sound.


He crawled over to his older cousins and attempted to hand the green, yucky thing to Jack. "what you got there, little b?" he asked as he placed him in his lap. Brian looked up at his older cousin and handed the item to him. "tata" he said to the little boy.


Jaco knew what the green thing was and immediately decided to get festive. "Daisy, hold little b." Jack passed the little boy over to his younger sister. "what are you doing Jack?" she asked as she took Brian. "watch this" he said cheekily


He snuck behind his aunts and uncles on the couch. He dangled the green thing over Ramsey and Tej. Letty noticed the Mistletoe first. "heads up guys" she laughed. "Mistletoe, 12 o'clock". They looked up and then looked at Jack in the eye.


Jack started laughing and so did Daisy. Little Brian didn't really know what was happening but he did laugh along because of the others. Tej kissed Ramsey. "good one jack." Letty said as she high-fived her nephew. Roman was on the floor at this point.


Dinner was ready soon after that and once Grace was said they all tucked in. Letty and Dom taking turns feeding little Brian. It was all peaceful and relaxing. No missions, no big world threats, just peaceful, loving family moments.


After dinner all adults were sitting beside there forevers. While the kids were playing once again with one another.


Jack had found more Mistletoe. "Daisy, you take this one and go over to uncle Dom and aunt Letty and I'll go hang this one over mom and dad." he giggled to his sister. "OK" she replied and placed Brian down.


Jack snuck behind the couch once again and then dangled the Mistletoe over them. This time is was Tej's trum to laugh. "heads up guys, Mistletoe." they looked up and saw it. They then looked Jack in the eye once again then laughed as he started to cracks up.


Brian and Mia kissed then they took the Mistletoe off Jack. Daisy then made her move and dangled the Mistletoe over Dom and Letty. The two looked up, then at each other. Dom cupped Letty's cheek and gave her a long passionate kiss. One that only could be made after 20 years of love for one another.


Hearing the laughter and conversations Brian decided he wanted to be part of it and made a crawl for his mother. He tugged on Letty's leg. Letty looked down to see him and smiled a big wide smile at him. "come on little man, your under the Mistletoe too so now you gotta get a kiss." she said as she gave Brian a big kiss on the cheek. Brian smiled and clapped his hands. Then he tried to kiss her back. "thank you little man." she said as she snuggled him closer to her.


The rest of the evening went by smoothly as they all just sat around together and talked about life, love and family.


The end.
