"Well, well, what took you two so long"? asked Eric. "Smiling Calleigh said..."Emer was giving her daddy fits". "Uhuh....with a smile like that, I think not", said Eric. Laughing Horatio said... okay Eric, let's get those gifts out of the car". Heading outside, Eric grabbed a huge box, full of gifts, while Horatio grabbed the other. "Wow...enough gifts "H", what did you do, rob a toy store"? "Funny Eric, some of these are yours, Frank's and Ryan's". "Oh...so what did you get Calleigh"? "You'll see, it's something she's been wanting for a while".
Carting the gift's into the house, they placed them under the tree. "Lambchop, I'm going to get going now, I have another place to visit before morning". Calleigh knew in her heart, where her dad was going, but she just smiled, and said...."Okay dad, you have a great christmas". "You too Lambchop, bye ya'll". "Bye, see you later", said the gang. "Calleigh....sweetheart, you okay"? "I'll be fine handsom, don't worry". "I do worry love, all the time". Caressing her husbands face, Calleigh smiled and kissed his lips.
Later when the house was quiet, and everyone was asleep, Calleigh came back donwstairs, and sat infront of the fireplace, with her arms, wrapped around her knees. "Sweetheart, what are you doing down here"? "Hey handsom, I was just enjoying the fire". Taking his wife by the hand, Horatio lead her to the couch, and sat her between his leg, resting her head on his chest. "What are you thinking about love"? "Just about morning, and how I can't wait to see our children faces, when they open their gifts".
"Well....you know what I'm thinking of love"? "No...what handsom"? "I'm thinking of touching your body, every inch with my fingertips, until I have you passionately writhering in my arms", he whispered in her ear. Sighing Calleigh snuggled in closer, causing Horatio to moan. With fingertip caresses, Horatio caressed her skin, starting at her arms, and down her thigh's, and as he whispered, "open for me love", she did, and he ignited the fire, the heat, that burned her in the eternal love, of her husbands soul.
Not wanting the feeling to end, Horatio picked her up, and carried her to the fireplace, where he laid her down on the rug. "Horatio.....she sighed". "Calleigh, I can see the heated passion in your eyes, the need, the want, of our desire we have shared throughout our lives". With each heated word, Calleigh became more dominant, and flipping her husband over, she covered his body, as her shone like a curtain between them. "Now my handsom husband, I'm going to show, how you make me feel, every touch, every caress, you force me to feel, each time we make love".
"Mommy....said EmerAngel, as she stood over her mommy and daddy. "Emer love, what is it sweetheart"? "I ant seep, I eed daddy". "Okay love, okay....said Horatio, as he got up and carried his Emer back to bed. "I'll be back my love". "I shall be waiting handsom". When he got Emer back into bed, he snuggled her in, and laid down beside her. "Go to sleep love, it will soon be morning". "I et ou open my pesents"? "You do love, but all little Angel's need their sleep". Closing her eyes, Emer fell back into a deep sleep.
When Horatio got back downstairs, he found his beautiful wife sound asleep. Picking her up in his arms, he carried her upstairs, pulled her into his arms, and fell asleep. In the morning, Horatio and Calleigh awoke to Emer jumping on their bed. "Ake up daddy, is chistmas", she yelled, waking up the house. "Quiet in there....yelled Eric smiling. "Uncle eric, yous wake". "We are now Emer". Running into Uncle Eric, and Aunt Cher's room, Emer kissed his cheek. "Is chistmas, ime ou get up".
Running downstairs ,Emer seen all the presents under the tree. "Ooooh....ook at all the pesents, Ernie and ert, ou see em all". Knocking Emer down, they began licking her face. "Daddy...elp daddy, Ernie and Ert ave me". Coming into the den Ryan helped Emer up. "How about we put your dogs outside Emer"? asked Ryan. "K...I's elp". Once they had the dogs outside, Ryan started coffee, while Frank did breakfast. "Merry Christmas everyone", said Calleigh.
"Merry christmas back", said Ryan. "Mommy....I's open pesents ow"? "After breakfast love, okay"? "ease mama, just one"? "One little one, said Calleigh, as she walked her daughter into the den. "Dis one mama"? "No...that's a big one, mommy said a little one". Picking up the little box, Emer opened it and said...."ook mama, ocks, why ou give me ocks, it ould be oys". "No Emer, not all present's are toy's". "Why not mama"? "Well....if they were all toy's, what would you wear"? "My old tings mama, I ave ot's of old tings". Laughing Calleigh said...."come on Emer, let's go have some breakfast".
During breakfast, Emer looked at her burnt bacon, and scrunched up her face, than taking a piece, she threw it at Ernie, and as he gobbled it down, Bert barked. "Shh...quiet Ert, said Emer. "EmerAngel, are you feeding Ernie and Bert again"? asked her daddy. "I's orry daddy, I no ike it, is urnt". "Then tell mommy or daddy, and we will not make you eat it, but I told you before, no feeding the dog's". "K daddy, I's orry".
When they were finished breakfast, they headed into the den, and opened their gifts. "Daddy...I's open un ow"? "Yes sweetheart, you may open your gift's". While Emer opened her gift's Horatio helped Horatio Jr with his, while Eric helped Laura. "Ook daddy, I got a arbie Deam Ouse". "Wow...look at that, it's very beautiful Emer, what else did Santa bring you love"? "Ore olly's and eddy ears". "Who got you the teddy bear Emer"? asked her mommy. "Uncle Yan, it pays music, ee".
With all her present's opened, Emer helped her brother openhis. "Ook Horatio, ou ot Ickle me Ernie, e's unny, isten". As Emer pushed Ernie's tummy, it began to laugh, which made Horatio, give out deep gurgle's of laughter from the tummy. Getting his camera, Horatio filmed his son and daughter, playing with the "Tickle me Ernie". "Daddy....Oreo ikes it". "I know he does love, press the tummy again". When Horatio heard Ernie laugh, he laughed again with it. "Oh sweetheart, these are going to make some beautiful cards, for next year".
After all the gift's had been opened, Emer fell asleep, laying her head on Bert's tummy, while Horatio and Laura, were put down for their naps. "Hard to believe another year is almost over, eh "H". "Hmm...it is Eric, it is". When Calleigh entered the room, she brought in Champagne, and glasses. "Here love, let me help you". Serving their family their drinks, they raised their glasses and said...."Merry Christmas from all of us, to you and yours, have a healthy and happy New Year".
