Christmas Cuddles

" Angel..?"

Crowley wandered the book shop, looking for Aziraphale. The collection of old books was quite impressive, especially since most of them were in mint condition.

" Angel, where are you?" Crowley called out again.

" Crowley? I'm over here!" A voice called out to the demon's left. Crowley headed to the voice, meeting the angel's blue eyes.

" Oh Crowley! I'm so glad you're here, I was just about to make some hot cocoa!" the white haired man clapped his hands in glee. The demon smiled slightly, a genuine smile, which was very rare for him. This didn't get past the angel, who giggled. 

" Anthony J Crowley...was that a smile?"

The demon blushed slightly.

" Of course not. Demons don't smile, they smirk."

Aziraphale didn't respond, and just offered a small smile in return.

" Whatever you say Crowley." The angel led the demon upstairs, where he put the kettle on.

" So Crowley, what brought you here?"

The demon rolled his eyes. " Can't I just spend time with my angel?"

Aziraphale went a little pink at that.

" Well, I suppose so, but I know there has to be some other reason you decided to visit."

The demon blushed and mumbled something. The angel furrowed his eyebrows.

" Could you repeat that please Crowley?"

The demon turned the exact shade of his hair, and sputtered out

" The humans made this thing called Christmas, where they get together and celebrate being family and friends or whatever...and I wanted to celebrate with you."

The angel blushed,his right hand going up to rub his neck.

" Celebrate...with me..?"

" Well yeah, who else would I celebrate with? Lord Beezlebub?" He replied sarcastically.

Aziraphale licked his lips.

" No, I suppose not... Well, anyway, I'm glad I get to celebrate with you!"

The kettle started to whistle, and Aziraphale carefully poured the water into the matching mugs. He then miracled some marshmallows to go on top, and headed over to the couch, beckoning Crowley to join him. The two sat down on the couch. Aziraphale was the first to speak,

" Thank you Crowley."

The demon raised his eyebrows.

" Thanks for what?"

" For coming over, I love it when you come over, you're one of the only people that stops by other than Michael...and they're always quite stern when they're here."

Crowley blushed. " No need to be so sappy, honestly Angel-"

The two sat in silence for a few minutes, finishing their hot chocolate. Crowley was wondering why he was blushing so often around Aziraphale, and Aziraphale was wondering why he felt so hot in his face whenever Crowley was near. The two made eye contact, and Aziraphale frowned a little.

" Why're you upset Angel?"

" You know you can take your glasses off around me, right Crowley?"

The demon paused.

It wasn't a matter of trust. Crowley trusted Aziraphale more than anyone else in the universe. It was the fact that Crowley hated the way his eyes looked. They were much prettier before he fell, not snake-like, a less bright yellow colour; they were normal. 

" Please Crowley...I love your eyes, please take the glasses off.."

The demon sighed, slowly taking off his glasses, his eyes almost glowing in the dim room. Aziraphale gave a soft smile, moving closer to Crowley on the couch. He brought his hand up to cup the demon's face.

" You have the prettiest eyes Crowley, they sparkle like the stars we helped create. They hold such beauty in them, and they are one of my favorite things to look at."

Crowley just stopped working for a second. No one had ever complimented his eyes like that before. Aziraphale went to remove his hand, but Crowley kept it in place with his own.

" Crowley..?"

" Angel..."

Crowley leaned forward, connecting his lips with Aziraphale's. Aziraphale's eyes widened in surprise. He never considered that the heat in his face whenever he was near Crowley had anything to do with romantic feelings, but it all seemed to finally click. He was in love with a demon. Aziraphale kissed Crowley back, the two of them staying like that for a moment before breaking it off.

" Shit...I'm sorry Aziraphale, I probably ruined everything-"

" Crowley, it's alright...I enjoyed it."

Crowley went wide eyed at the angel. He gave a smile, a genuine smile.

" Angel..I think I love you."

" Anthony J Crowley, I think I love you too. Can we cuddle..?"

The demon just smiled in response, and the angel moved to lay on the demon, his head buried in the crook of Crowley's neck.

" I love you so much..." The angel mumbled into Crowley's neck.

Crowley chuckled, moving his hands through Aziraphale's curls.

" I love you too Angel."

And so the two continued to cuddle, and eventually fell asleep, holding each other tightly through the night.

Both of them agreed it was the best Christmas ever.
