Getting to his feet, Doc picked up the two mugs from the coffee table. Bdubs whined, his arms still loosely wrapped around his waist.

"If you don't want to get up then you need to let go," Doc chuckled.

"Don't wanna do that either," he mumbled, nuzzling his back. Shaking his head, the hybrid walked towards the kitchen while the short roommate trudged behind him. He placed the empty hot chocolate mugs in the sink and let them soak in water.

The two climbed into bed, Bdubs practically on top of the other. "Merry Christmas Eve," he mumbled into his shoulder.

"Merry Christmas Eve," the dark brunette echoed, kissing his head.

Still not fully awake and a little cold, Doc felt around for his boyfriend to warm him up. Realizing he wasn't there, he slowly sat up. The smell of pancakes filled his nose and he pulled himself out of bed. Bdubs happened to turn around as the hybrid appeared in the bedroom doorway.

"Morning!" he greeted, plating the chocolate-chip pancakes. Humming, Doc made his way behind his boyfriend, snaking his arms under his shirt and around his waist. The freckled male jumped at his cold touch, but he relished the warmth and kissed his cheek. He watched the other shake the can of whipped cream and create a dollop on each stack. "And with that our Christmas breakfast is ready!" he declared.

The two plopped down on the couch and turned on the TV to watch some cheesy Christmas movies.

"Are you sure you're up for the party?" Bdubs asked with a mouth full of pancake. "We don't have to go, y'know."

"I swear I do want to go," he insisted. "I do actually want to meet your other friends." He placed down his plate- which happened to be on Bdubs' legs since he decided to lay them over his lap. The brunette jumped for the second time that morning because of something cold but didn't care. As the movie continued, Doc grew slightly annoyed by the miscommunication between the protagonists. He idly rubbed his boyfriend's knee while pointing out they should just call each other.

"Well, I don't think she's emotionally ready to talk to him yet, and he's just giving her space," the freckled roommate pointed out.

"But it was a lie. At the very least he should let her know that!"

Bdubs shushed him by patting his hand all over the other's face as the protagonists bumped into each other at the party. His eyes sparkled as they began to seemingly float across the ballroom while they danced, quietly speaking about what happened between them. After a few sheds of tears and a soft kiss, the female lead led the other outside to the snowy balcony, where they shared one final kiss before the credits began to roll.

"Awe!" he cooed, squishing his cheeks.

"All of these movies are the same and so predictable," Doc scoffed, crossing his arms. He looked down before quietly adding, "and I love them."

Picking the taller male's plate off up off his lap, Bdubs leaned over to kiss his nose. "I'll take care of the dishes," he murmured as he stacked the plates. But before he could get up, he was pulled back into the other's lap so a flurry of kisses could be placed over his face. He giggled at the soft touches.

The short brunette rocked back and forth on his heels as he stood outside Keralis' apartment door. A bag of gifts was clutched in one hand, and the other was being squeezed by his boyfriend. The door was flung open and the two were given a bright welcome.

"So glad you two could make it! Come on in!"

Looking around, Doc noted a tall bearded man in the kitchen and four people in the living room. Two couches were facing each other and all four were on the one to the right. He recognized two of them to be his friends and colleagues Etho and Beef. Etho was sitting next to a brunette around his height, who seemed to be playing with his hand. The hybrid recognized them as Iskall from a framed photo on his coworker's desk. The final male was in Beef's lap, a dirty blonde he didn't know. Both of them were wearing Christmas-themed Hawaiian shirts. While Bdubs placed their gifts under the tree, Doc plopped down on the opposite couch.
