Chapter 37

Chester's POV

          He smiled at Mike as they dragged the box with their Christmas tree into the living room. The rest of the guys were coming to hang out while they put up the tree.

          "You need to do more push-ups Chazzy-Chaz, you're arms are like twigs," Mike snickered. Chester rolled his eyes as they put the box down on the floor in the window room and then stretched. Mike went over to the radio and turned on some Christmas music.

          "Let's get in the spirit!" Mike laughed before taking off and running up the stairs. Chester frowned and sat down in the chair. Mike was so odd at times. About five minutes later, Mike came back down dressed up as Santa, without the giant white beard.

          "Mike you're insane," Chester laughed as he got up and ran over to him. He hugged him tightly. Mike laughed and hugged him back. Chester pulled back and then gave Mike a gentle kiss. Mike raised his hand to the side of his face and the kiss deepened.

          "ANNNND I, SAW CHAZZY KISSIN SANNNNNTA CLAUSE!" Dave's voice rang out from behind him. The four other guys started laughing uncontrollably. Mike pulled back and rolled his eyes.

          "Oh come on Dave!" he said. Chester grinned and gave his friend a hug before Mike opened the box with their tree in it. It was artificial. Dave turned the Christmas music up and then they spread out across the room. Chester started setting up the stand and Mike hooked branches into it before shaping the tree to actually look like one. They talked for a while, Dave finding great joy in changing 'Chestnuts roasting on an open fire' to 'Chester's nuts roasting on an open fire.' Of course he would though. He glanced down and jumped at the sight. He was covered in lights from the Christmas tree. He turned around.

          "What the....?"

          "Hey Chazzy, you're glowing," Mike said with a smile as he wrapped his arms around his waist. Chester snickered.

          "This was you?"

          "Who else would make you shine like a star huh?" Mike asked quietly. Chester smiled and kissed Mike gently. Mike returned the kiss and kept his hand on his waist and the other one cupped his cheek.

          "You're so beautiful," Mike whispered as they kissed again. Chester felt his eyes slide shut. He felt himself moved back to the chair and then he was pushed back against it. Mike's lips met his own again and the kiss deepened. Chester moaned softly as he felt Mike tug gently on his lower lip.

          "I love you baby," Mike said softly. Chester moved his hand to the back of Mike's head and pulled them together again. Their mouths moved hungrily against each other and Chester felt pleasure come through him. Mike slowly pulled away and then he stroked his thumb over Chester's cheek slowly. He sighed softly and then cuddled up against him.

          "Forget about the tree right now," Chester said as he snuggled into Mike's chest. The warmth from the lights was keeping them warm.

          "So what are you doing for Christmas guys?" Mike asked. Chester closed his eyes as he heard a couple of the guys say they were either going to visit here or spend time with their families.

          "What about you Dave?" Brad asked. He heard Dave sigh.

          "I don't know. Maybe come on over here or something."

          Chester opened his eyes and glanced over at the other man. He all of a sudden felt like this conversation wasn't going to go well.

          "Dave....you alright Phi?" Chester asked quietly. Dave nodded and then looked away. Something wasn't right. Mike walked over to him.
