kate had arranged all the presents from under the tree in to piles, and they all sat down to open them, when lizzie saw the little gold box place on the tree by jake.

"katie, this one is for you," she said handing it to her sister.

kate opened the box and in side was another box, kate frowned, but as she opened the second box her frown vanished as she saw a gold ring, with a diamond glinting

ight colours as the fairy lights changed colour.

looking up at her family, she saw jake on one knee.

"katherine barker, would you do me the honour of becoming my wife?"

kate who for the first time, since she had known jake was speechless and could only nod her head as jake slipped on the diamond.

kate's grandfather kissed her on the cheek and wished her and jake the best but her grandmother said it was quick so kate explained that they had been dating for six months.

sitting down to christmas dinner, kate's grandfather who normally carved the turkey, passed the knife to jake.

"you'll soon be head of this family so you can carve it,"

midnight

kate was downstairs looking up at the moon when arms slipped around her waist.

"what's up," the voice whispered

"nothing jake. i just wish my parents could be hear,"

"they are, they are all around you," jake told her before kissing her firmly on the lips.

"come on, lets get some sleep," jake said leading her to the stair case, kate slipped past him and was one step above him when she lead the kiss.
