Santa didn't even know when he fell asleep but he was woken up by someone tapping his cheeks. When he opened his eyes, the car was already parked in a garage and his boss was leaning towards him, attempting to wake him up.

"We're here." Perth said softly, ruffling his hair.

Santa straightened when he remembered his situation. He quickly unbuckled his seatbelt but as he was about to open the door, his boss stopped him asking him to wait. He watched Perth step out of the vehicle and go over to his direction to open the door for him.

"Thank you. You didn't have to, sir." Santa said, shyly. He's starting to learn that his boss may not be a man of words but he is a man of action.

"Santa, drop the sir." Perth stared at him intensely, trying to persuade him with his eyes to drop the formalities.

"Okay. P-Perth." Santa stuttered, unable to look at Perth. He's not even sure why he is so shy calling Perth his first name when he easily dropped the formalities with Ohm. Perth ruffled his hair again. He's starting to think that this may become a habit of his husband.

"Let's go inside already." Perth led the way towards his mansion. Santa was shook at how big Perth's house is despite living alone.

"There's a total of 5 rooms in this house. All located on the second floor. There are 2 guest rooms, 1 room for my parents when they stay here, 1 is my office, and the master's bedroom." Perth started to climb up the stairs so Santa had no choice but to follow. Everything just screams expensive in this place that he doesn't even dare come near the belongings.

"Here's the master's bedroom." Perth opened the door at the end of the hall and went inside. Santa just stood at the door. He greatly values people's privacy, this includes their bedrooms.

"Uhm, where's the guest room?" Santa asked Perth who was starting to unbutton his shirt. Today has been a long day that he just wants to take a shower and lay down. As Perth looked at him confusedly, Santa averted his eyes. Perth was starting to take his shirt off.
Perth walked back towards Santa who was still at the door, looking everywhere but at him.

"What are you gonna do in the guest room?" Santa snapped his head back at Perth. He couldn't believe that he would even ask that kind of question.

"Uhm, sleep?" Santa replied, hesitant. Surely, Perth wouldn't agree that they sleep together right?

"And just why would you sleep in the guest room when the bed is big enough for both of us? Did you forget that we're already married?" Perth leaned at the door, his arms crossed. Santa avoided looking at Perth once again. He's starting to get distracted by this man's pecks. Inhaling deeply, he racked his brain for reasons as to why they should not sleep together.

"Well, won't you feel uncomfortable if you sleep with someone else on your bed?" Santa asked.

"Just why would I feel uncomfortable sleeping with my husband?" Perth countered immediately. He's making this hard that Santa just gave up.

"Then can I at least borrow some of your clothes. I haven't brought any." Santa asked shyly.

"Come inside. Don't be shy, this is your room now too."

Perth straightened and went back inside. He went straight to his closet and pulled a pair of pajamas and handed them to Santa.

"I'll shower first. Just wait here for the meantime." Perth said to which Santa nodded.
