Nova’s POV I can’t believe Uncle Mateo yelled that last night! I know his voice and I was kind of glad that Ambrose didn’t recognise his voice. He was in the back with some old friends. We had chatted when we got home Thursday evening. There was no way I could fall asleep early with all that happened that day. Uncle Mateo told me that he was really glad that Aldo was coming out of his comfort zone and coming into his own. I told him that Aldo has chosen to use his true name as well and will be going by Ambrose, rather than the nickname he was given as a child. He acknowledges his birth surname, but said that he feels like his adoptive parents also deserve credit for all that they have done so will use both last names going forward. Uncle Mateo said he agreed that that was sound reasoning.Then asked if I had met Ambrose’s sister, Cicely and I said “Yeah, she’s been coming home from New Jersey a lot for appointments here in Brooklyn.” I then told him that she is a special education

Nova’s POV I wanted to fuck Ambrose on Sunday night, but I didn’t mami to hear us. We get way too loud! I am sure the entire family, the neighbors and anyone shopping downstairs would have heard if I did what I wanted to him. He was being so sweet and sexy all day. I am not even sure if he knew how sexy he was being and finding me the perfect jumpsuit to wear for the holidays! I LOVE it! It is gender euphoria in a single clothing item! It is beautiful, elegant, yet comfortable. I just finished writing the first draft of my 20 page research essay for my English Composition class and have moved on to studying for my civics final. I have to study for my Spanish final as well but mami and Uncle Mateo promised that they could help me after dinner. I receive a text…I know it isn’t Ambrose, we texted when I got home after my French exam earlier and he is still working for another hour. I check it out. Chantelle : Jace and I are downstairs! Come help me with him! Me: I’ll

Nova’s POV Saturday night’s performance was supposed to kick off the Kissmas Extravaganza and it pretty much did. Most of the queens chose “Baby it’s cold Outside”, “Santa Baby” or “All I want for Christmas is You” for songs to dance to…I knew they would, so I went a different route. I went with Tori Kelly and Babyface’s version of “Let it Snow”. I do have other Kissmas Extravaganza numbers prepared as well. Sunday’s snowball fight with Ambrose was fun, as was the warming up with cocoa and lots of snuggles. I was not at all surprised by uncle Mateo’s announcement at dinner and neither was Ambrose. Mami and Ambrose spoke to each other in hushed tones while Uncle Mateo and I cleared the table, and I think they are up to something. I did hear him say “not yet, but this will be close”. Right before mami gave him a big hug. Adia and Aiden did the dishes, while Mateo and I did other clean up duties. Ambrose promised that he would see me Wednesday for my evening performance, even if

Nova’s POV Last night was a blast! I always knew my family have a ton of fun at parties, but having Ambrose there made it just that much better. Mami let Aiden spend the night, of course the fact that he told her that he intends to propose to Adia today may have helped. Adia doesn’t know and they have only been together for like 5 or 6 weeks if I am keeping count correctly, so I don’t know how that will go. Cassie is sleeping soundly on the trundle. She and Gina texted for a while late last night and she was crying at one point but told me it was nothing to worry about. I slide my robe over my new pajamas and slink out to make a pot of coffee and see Sgt Clearwater already sitting with a hot cup of coffee. “Adia came out and made it before sliding back into her room.” He smiles while I pour myself a cup. “Nova, you and Cassie have been friends for a very long time and I don’t think anyone knows her better than you do. I haven’t been the most attentive father and I know that I was

Nova’s POV Sunday night with Ambrose’s grandparents was like Christmas eve, all over again! There was a huge meal and they invited their friends to come over and everything was festive and they Asked Ambrose if he could play piano, which he can, quite wonderfully at that! They told me that I could have my own room or share with Ambrose. They wouldn’t judge. They just want me to be comfortable. I chose to share with Ambrose, but told him I won’t fuck him while we are here. I sucked me off and we managed to give each other hand jobs in the humongous shower. I know how loud we get when we fuck and how messy it can be and I refuse to do that in his grandparent’s house. Monday we had a big breakfast and exchanged our holiday gifts with them. I wasn’t sure what I could possibly give them, but Ambrose had assured me that my painting of him would make a lovely gift and we had found a vintage frame in a thrift store that fit it well. They loved it. He had found some things that had
