[A Parcel Spin-Off]
Vester thought he had married Grinch-not that Mr. Nabbe hates Christmas because God knows it's one of his favorite holidays. However, he's not really into decorating. He's too busy to bother such a thing. Even putting up lights a...

PAVLO is settling himself in the black cozy couch while facing the TV playing a Christmas horror special. On the other hand, Vester is just beside him, obviously paying attention to nothing. Instead, he snuggles into his husband's laughing figure, hiding his face every time the killer clown shows up or there's a jump scare.
It's safe to say that Pavlo enjoyed his husband's vulnerability when it comes to scary movies. To irk the younger more, he increases the television's volume to its finest. Vester wailed, swatting his thighs a little bit rougher.
"Aray naman!" Pavlo complains but the grin never did leave his face. "Look, wala na ang killer."
"Akala mo maniniwala ako sa'yo?" Vester grunts before he reached for the other man's right hand and bit it.
Pavlo groaned as pain knocks in him. He glared at his husband's doe eyes making his frustrations melt away. "Sorry, grumpy hubby. Napalakas ba? Ikaw naman kasi eh..."
"Ba't ka ba nangangagat? Ang sakit no'n ah! Grabe ka..." said Pavlo, pouting heavily.
The younger sighs, reaching for the hand he just bit earlier. "I'm sorry. Kiss ko na lang para hindi na masyadong masakit. Ayan, mawawala rin ito maya-maya."
Pavlo could only roll his eyes. "Gusto mong magkagatan, babe? Just tell me. Madali lang naman akong kausap. Saan mo ba gusto, ha? Sabihin mo."
Vester flushed, swatting his husband's shoulder. "Maharot ka!"
The older snorted, ruffling his hair. "You've started it, Mr. Nabbe. How am I supposed to react to that other than getting pissed off?"
Vester squinted his eyes at him. "Ah... so you're pissed off? Hindi ba dapat ako itong galit? Bakit parang ikaw pa yata ang nagtatampo?"
"Yeah! Tingnan mo. Hindi ko na nasundan ang pinapanood ko—"
"Ehhhhh! Pao, how can you bear watching it? It's gore. It's horrifying. It's not radiating the spirit of Christmas. My god, nakapangasawa ba ako ng Grinch?" he blurts out unbelievably.
Pavlo gasped dramatically, staring at him with a mischievous grin. "Ang gwapo kong Grinch, Tey."
Vester pouts, "Mr. Nabbe, palitan na natin ang movie. Hindi ko kayang manood—aaaaaahhhhhh! Ayan na ang pangit na clown!"
"It's okay, baby." Pavlo tugged him, kissing his hair while chuckling.
"Ampao... please, babangungutin ako nito. Baka kung ano-ano na naman ang makikita ko after this," begs the younger.
Pavlo kisses his forehead. "Hey, relax. It's just a movie. I'm here. I won't let anyone harm you. You're safe here. Dadaan muna sila sa bangkay ko bago ka nila masaktan."
