A iyana and I woke up early, way before anyone else in the house, that is until we heard who I can only imagine was Dante muttering curses as he edged his wife for nearly an hour and a half. His room is the one directly below us, and it's separated by the bathroom and a hallway, so for his siblings' sake, I'm hoping none of them had to endure that shit.

Of course, the sounds turned Aiyana on, so she sucked my cock like a champ before climbing on top of my lap and riding me like my own personal cowgirl.

Best Christmas morning ever.

And man, this family likes to eat. I'm not complaining either. I was really into the brunch, followed by cookies, a midday nap, soccer with the kids in the yard, the massive early dinner everyone helped set up, all the desserts, and even that dumb elf thing.

All the kids were put to sleep upstairs, and Gloria and Angelo went to bed early, so we're all just sitting around the fireplace as Gianni plays the piano and serenades us all.

He and Dante clearly have a bit they do each year, which was honestly hysterical. They go back and forth in a duet that Kat and I always complained about as kids, but their version is incredible.

As the song comes to an end, Aiyana's eyes are wide and lit with excitement as she sits on the ground next to me. She's beaming up at Gianni as he plays the old piano he and his best friend, Alex, dragged out here. When the music stops, Aiyana claps her hands together like a crazed fan, laughter erupting out of her in a display of pure bliss I haven't seen since her dad's health took a turn for the worse.

It even drags a smile, a real, genuine toothy one, out of Gi, who is just about the most sullen guy I've ever known. He leans down between us, gently brushing a lock of hair out of Aiyana's face and behind her ear. A surge of jealousy rushes through me until his eyes turn to me, and he whispers to us so only we can hear, "If you thought that was good, wait till you guys hear our rendition of Dominick The Donkey, jing-a-di-jing, hee haw, hee haw." He chuckles and winks at me before straightening in his seat.

Aiyana releases a snort that makes Gi's shoulders shake a little with laughter, but he composes himself and pretends not to hear it.

I smile over at Aiyana and whisper in her ear. "Is that the kind of flirting you want me to do? Will that finally win you over?" I ask, cocking a brow at her, a wide grin spread across my face.

She snorts again, smacking my leg. "You're an idiot, and he wasn't flirting with me." She rolls her eyes and goes back to ignoring me.

A while later, we all say our goodnights, heading upstairs for bed while several of the parents stay downstairs with Kat and Ale.

I swat her butt as she walks ahead of me, and she climbs into bed, not bothering to ask if I'm sleeping with her tonight. We're so exhausted that sex isn't on either of our minds as we curl around each other. I press my lips to hers and then to the tip of her nose and mumble into her hair, "Goodnight, my little viper."
