If This Is Love, I'll Love You Forever

*Christmas Morning (Ben's P.O.V.)*

"Ben! Ben! Wake up!" I felt someone shaking me and calling my name.
I reached up and rubbed my eyes and looked at Danny bouncing on the bed next to me.
"Are you awake?" He looked like a 6 year old.
"I am now."
"Good. Happy Christmas."
"You too." I yawned.
"Let's go wake up Trevor and Seth!" He was way too excited.
He ran out of the room and I slowly got up to pee then went down the hall to see where he went.
He was in Seth's room, waking him up the same way he had done to me.
Seth was laughing uncontrollably at him.
I stood in the doorway and smiled at the way Danny acted.
"Let's go wake Trevor up!" Danny said as he got off the bed.
Seth stood up and was still smiling. He walked out of the room first.
He walked down the hall and into the room Trevor was sleeping in.
He turned the doorknob and walked in slowly.
"Be quiet. He doesn't like to be shouted at when you wake him up." Seth said quietly as he sat on the bed next to his brother.
He shook him gently and said "Trev. Trev. Wake up."
Trevor mumbled a 'go away' then pulled a pillow over his head.
"Trev come on. Wake up. It's Christmas."
His response was muffled by the pillow.
"What did you say?" Seth giggled slightly.
"I said. If I wake up. Will you stop talking to me?" He said when his head wasn't fully covered anymore.
"Probably not, but wake up anyway."
He groaned and threw the blanket off his legs.
"Alright. Let's go."
Seth stood up and so did Trevor.
Danny ran down the hall to his parents room and knocked like a crazy maniac.
"Mum? Dad?"
He slowly opened the door and walked in. The rest of us stayed outside the door as he shook his mom gently and said "Mom. Dad. Wake up. It's Christmas!"
His mom woke up and smiled at him. "You're such a child, Danny."
He just continued to beam at her and said, "Can we go open presents?"
"Yeah. Let me wake up your father and get the camera. Why don't you guys on sit on the steps. No peaking." She looked directly at Danny.
"Okay." He said and left the room.
We sat on the steps and waited for his parents.
"Ben?"
"Yeah?" I looked over at Seth.
"Do you believe in Santa Claus?"
He had this childlike look in his eyes that made me say, "Yeah. Of course I do. Don't you?"
He smiled brightly at my answer and nodded his head yes.
Danny's mom came out of her room a second later with Danny's father. She walked past us down the stairs and so did his dad.
"Stay right there. I need to go grab my camera." She said to us then walked towards her office.
She came back a minute later with it in her hand and looked at Danny.
"Go ahead." She smiled to him. He jumped up and ran into the living room.
"Holy sh-"
"Language, Danny!"
"I was gonna say shoot."
I made my way to the sofa and sat down.
Danny began opening boxes and bags and smiling so happily at the stuff he got.
Christmas stopped being celebrated in my house after my mom passed away.
I looked to Trevor and Seth who were opening the presents their dad brought for Danny's parents to put under the tree.
Seth was smiling just as big as Danny was.
"Here you go, Ben. These are for you."
I was a bit surprised when Danny handed me a few items.
I looked at them for a moment before opening them. There was some t-shirts and an amp. Some jeans. A new pair of shoes and a small stuffed bear with a note attached that said 'Love Danny.'
I smiled at the items and picked up the wrapping paper, throwing it away.
"Ben." Danny's dad said to me. "This is for you as well." He was carrying a big box and set it gently on the ground.
"This is too much."
"Maybe, but you're part of the family now, kiddo. Go ahead and open it."
I sat on the floor beside it and pulled up the tape.
There was packing peanuts and oh wait. A guitar case?
I smiled up at Danny's dad and pulled it out of the box.
I undid the locks on the side and gasped. "I can't accept this."
"Take it. It's custom made for you."
I pulled the Les Paul out of the case and stared at it.
"You didn't have to do all of this."
"I know. I wanted to."
I stood up quickly and hugged him.
"Thank you so much."
"Ah don't mention it."
I let go of him and put the guitar back in the case gently.
I closed it back up then started picking up the trash.
"I got it." Danny's dad said to me.
"Oh okay."
"Why don't you bring your stuff to your room."
"Okay." I said and picked the case up by the handle. I gathered the other items I got and brought them upstairs. The clothes were all the correct size. I tried them all on just in case and put the bear on my bed. Surprisingly this Christmas didn't suck.
