Chapter 1 has been edited for grammatical errors just fyi.
I took a little different approach with this one, I put in a little more story about their lives. Let me know if you want more like this or let me know if you dont care about that and just want them to fuck! Lol
Much thanks to everyone for the tremendous support and thank you my regular readers!

"But you two grew up so close!" My mom expressed her thoughts of our relationship, "I can't help but feel like its a little wrong!"
"Mom, it's really not! You hear of stories about childhood friends falling in love all the time! This is no different!" I reasoned.
"He is your brother's best friend, not yours!"
"Mom! Stop being so old time-y! We're not in the stone age anymore!"
"I know but I can't help it, I practically raised him!"
"Well moma, think of it this way.." a smile crept across my face as I argued a great point, "...you practically raised him! That means you thought him how to be the perfect gentleman and how to treat a lady!"
"Yea, so?" She looked confused.
"Well isn't that what you want for your daughter? A gentleman that knows how to treat her right?"
"Hmmm..." she glared at me, defeated, knowing I had the better argument.
"Come here!" She smiled as she opened her arms wide to hug me, "As long as you are happy!"
I scooted closer to her on the sofa and gave her a big hug just as the back door opened and a few mins later in walked Tyler, "Well speak of the devil.."
"Tyler!?!?" Mom said sternly as she stood to walk half way over to him, "I've got a bone to pick with you!"
"I swear, it wasn't me!" He smirked as he recited his age old defense.
Mom crossed her arms and stood in front of him just to intimidate him.
"Just so that I'm clear, what am I not guilty of?" He asked curiously.
She smiled and embraced him in a hug, "Dating my daughter!"
He hugged her back as he sighed, "Oh, I'm so glad Katie finally told you!"
"I am too because I would have died waiting for you to grow a pair big enough to tell me!" She joked with Tyler as she walked out of the living room and off to the store.
He smiled, so charmingly and sat next to me on the couch, "Thanks for finally telling her!"
"Mhm!" I nodded and leaned in for a kiss.
"So you know how you love a well lit, well decorated house for Christmas but you guys don't really do it much since your dad passed?"
"Yes, but Christmas isn't for months from now!" I look at him skeptically.
" I know, I just figured since you're mom will be on a cruise this year that you might want to spend Christmas with me?" His hopeful grin beamed across his face.
"Of course I'll spend Christmas with you!" I kissed him on the cheek softly.
*Four Months Later*
"Can I take this blindfold off yet!" I complained.
"No! Tyler yelled as he walked me over to the middle of his apartment.
He started undoing the blindfold, "Now you can open your eyes!"
I opened my eyes to a beautifully decorated apartment with a gorgeous fully decorated tree, lights, garlands and decorations everywhere and the fireplace going. He had spread a few blankets in front of the fireplace with pillows, our love nest, as he called it. Next to our nest was wine, two glasses and an assortment of cheeses, meats, apples and crackers.
"Wow, Ty!" I was in awe.
He grinned, knowing he achieved what he had set out to do.
"Just wanted to do my best for my best girl on Christmas Eve!" He wrapped his arms around me and kissed my forehead.
We laid in front of the fire all night sipping wine and snacking. I had a few glasses of wine and started feeling tipsy. Tyler was laying on his back and I laid on my right side, my left leg draped over him and my head laid in his chest.
I was maybe about 10:30 if not 11pm when there was a knock on the door. "Who's that at this time of night?" I asked, "Just ignore them, they'll think you're sleeping!"
"No, it will just be a few minutes, let me get it." Tyler insisted.
I rolled over on my stomach and poured myself another glass of wine as Tyler walked around the short hall way to get the door.
"Wow, Beth, what are you doing here?"
"Hey you, I just wanted to bring by these cookies and wish you a Merry Christmas!" I heard the voice of some blonde bimbo.
"Oh, umm thanks, you shouldn't have!" Tyler responded nervously.
"Well I wanted to! Looks like you decorated a bit." She flirted.
"Well that was very nice of you and yes I have a few tricks up my sleeve!" Tyler responded, almost flirting back.
With the liquid courage, I started getting myself off the floor to confront his bitch.
"Well, aren't you going to let me in?" Her stupid voice resonated.
"Umm, I'm sorry, I have comp-" Tyler was cut off as I approached.
"We're kind of in the middle of something so how about you go away?" I hissed.
"Katie, c'mon don't be rude!" Tyler sounded upset.
"Really Tyler?!?" I stormed off into the living room.
"I think you should go, Beth!" Tyler passed the tin of cookies back to her and shut the door.
"What the hell's wrong with you?!" Tyler asked angrily.
