Merry Christmas all!! Sorry I couldn't get this out on time; it needed a bit of revising. Here's a wholesome winter chapter to keep this fic watered and fed whilst I work through writer's block. The actual Christmas/New Year's chapter will come soon. Have a nice holiday season and thanks for the support on the fic! It is much appreciated <333

One chilly December evening Finny looks up from his homework. He and Gene were working together on bringing Finny's grades up. "Oh wow.... Gene look! It's snowing!" Gene puts down his pencil and looks up, rather unamused. He sees the gently falling flakes covering Devon and his eyes light up. Finny sets his things down and runs over to the window. "It's so beautiful, isn't it Gene?" Gene blushes. It's so cute seeing Finny so excited about the snow. "Tomorrow let's go outside and make snow angels. There isn't going to be much right now since it just started snowing." Gene said in a smile. Finny laughed and agreed. He stood for several minutes, observing the beautiful snowflakes.
Thankfully, it was a Friday, so they wouldn't have any school tomorrow. They could spend all day playing in the snow. Gene put away his and Finny's things, and they went to bed, both very excited about tomorrow.
"Gene!! Wake up!! Come on!!" Finny exclaimed to his lover. Gene slowly opened his eyes, not remembering what Finny was so excited about. "Whats going on?" Gene said drowsily. "Look at how much it snowed!" Gene remembered what had occured last night and rose up to take a look out the window. There was almost two feet of snow. It was pretty early, too so the snow was untouched by the Devon boys.
They put on their winter gear and eagerly went outside. The snow was plush and soft, earning Finny's approval. They laughed and played together for ours. They were the first to touch this preserved first snow of the year. Although it was quite cold outside, the boys were too busy to notice.
They made snowmen, snowangels, and just lay together, observing the still, dark sky. The sun was to rise around 9 AM, and they had gone outside around 5, it was still very dark.
The snow had still been falling, a whirlwind of white sparkling wonder. After a long while, Gene and Finny's coats were soaked to the core in melted snow. "Maybe we should step inside for a bit, I don't want you to catch a cold..." Gene suggested worrily to Finny.
Although reluctant, Finny agreed and they went inside. Gene and Finny walked together to the lounge to have a cup of coffee. They turned on one of the illegal radios and listened to some smooth jazz for a bit.
Gene rested his head on Finny's shoulder and closed his eyes. He looked so peaceful there... Finny, as carefully as he could without disturbing Gene, grabbed the blue blanket that Leper crocheted and covered Gene. After a few minutes, Gene was fast asleep on Finny's shoulder. Finny leaned onto Gene and they were both soon asleep, not a care in the world.
