'...We're snuggled up together, like two birds of a feather would be...' Sleigh Ride by Pentatonix

It was Christmas Day and Mitch was busy in the kitchen, putting in all the ingredients into a plastic bowl for his apple pie. The Christmas decorations were all put up and there was only one thing left to decorate and it was the Christmas tree.

'Muffin! Why did you have to choose the 12ft Christmas tree?!' Scott yelled, and Mitch turned around from his cake making and burst out laughing, 'Scott, what the hell are you doing?' Mitch said whilst laughing, 'What does it look like?!' Scott shouted, holding onto the swinging Christmas tree for dear life. The ladder was laying on the floor, a long way away from Scott's legs and Scott was holding onto the tree, 'Right, Sandra. I'm going to help you before you fall onto the floor and crack your head open.' Mitch said, hurrying toward Scott and propping the ladder up. 

Scott slowly stepped onto the top, square ladder step and sighed, 'Thanks, Munchkin.' Scott said quickly before starting to hang small baubles on the top section of the Christmas Tree whilst Mitch carried on making the cake, adding vanilla essence and such. 'Cupcake, come put the star on the tree!' Scott called, 'Coming boo! One second!' Mitch quickly said and put the pie in the oven, taking out the cinnamon and the cinnamon sugar. He then hurried over to Scott and climbed the ladder and stood on the top step and stood on his tip toes, 'Snuggles, I can't reach..' Mitch said in a childish voice, 'Awh, Munchie. Here, I'll lift you up..' 'No! I'll crush you.' Mitch protested, 'No, you weigh a pound, it's fine.' Scott replied back, 'Awh, that's so sweet. Fine, just don't draaaahhhhhh...'

Mitch was cut off by Scott picking him up and handing him the star. 'Oh, I feel so special!' Mitch said whilst placing the star on top of the tree. Suddenly, Mitch felt Scott move from underneath him and he was soon screaming as he was falling through the air trying to clutch onto something but failing. He was praying not to hurt himself too much when he got caught by Scott. 'You okay there, dumpling?' Scott asked, a smirk playing on his lips, 'I hate you so much, Scott.' Mitch pretended to be angry and folded his arms, 'Baaaaaby, you love me.' Scott cooed, 'I do,' Mitch smiled and leaned up to kiss Scott. Mitch sniffed, 'The pie!' Mitch shouted and jumped down from Scott's grasp and clumsily climbed down the ladder.

Mitch got the pie out in time, the top of the pie nicely golden so Mitch sprinkled some cinnamon and cinnamon sugar onto the top of the pie and placed it on the side to cool. Mitch and Scott walked over to the table and started laying down the table cloth, then the cutlery and food. By the time they finished, it was about 7:54pm so they had just enough time to put the cake down and put Christmas music on. Of course they put 'That's Christmas To Me' on and 'PTXmas'. Scott walked up to Mitch with two Santa hat's and gave one to Mitch. 'Oh My God, these are cute.' Mitch said as he examined his hat, which had "Santa's Naughty Helper" on it and Scott's hat said, "The Helper's Owner, Santa". 'Well, I thought they would be fitting.' Scott laughed and helped Mitch put on his hat, 'Don't mess up my hair!' Mitch squealed, 'Relax, I won't.' Scott replied.

'Why do we have so much food?' Scott asked Mitch as he poured them another glass of Chardonnay. 'Because we're both hungry, gorl'ts?' Mitch said, 'True, though. Anyway, I'm done, I guess you are too - judging by your plate?' Scott looked at Mitch whilst he looked down at his empty plate, 'Mhm, I think it's time to give our presents to each other?' Mitch said with a questioning tone, 'I thought the exact same thing,' Scott nodded as he spoke, 'Wait here!' Both of the males said to each other and laughed as they went in the opposite directions to get each other's presents.

When Scott got back, Mitch was sitting by the Christmas tree on the rug with his present in his lap. Scott joined him and they smiled at each other. 'I'll give you my present first,' Mitch said quickly. 'Someone's eager.' Scott chuckled, 'Go ahead.' Scott waited patiently as Mitch handed him his present, 'Just so you know, it took me a while to find this present because the tiny little thing in it is hard to find. You can open it now.' 

Scott pulled on of the ribbon legs and the top of the small, black, glittery box fell of revealing a silver chain with a small plaque attached to it saying, 'S & M' on the front of it with, 'The love of my Life' engraved at the back of it. Scott looked up at Mitch with watery eyes, 'Awh, babe! I love it.' Scott was about to kiss Mitch when Mitch raised his finger, 'Not yet! Do you see any mistletoe? Didn't think so. I have one more thing.' Mitch quickly reached over and grabbed a small package, the wrapping kinda bad. Scott gently ripped the paper apart and found a brown teddy bear holding a red, plush heart that had 'I Love You' sewn into it. 

'Mitchie, this is perfect but..' Scott took his present out from behind his back and placed it in front of Mitch, 'Open this first..' Scott smiled as Mitch carefully opened the box, 'Scott, what the fuck is this going to be? I swear to god if it's some sort of bug, I will di--' Mitch was cut off with his gasp, his eyes scanning the piece of paper which had beautiful handwriting on it, the text saying, 'Muffin, will you be my boyfriend?' Underneath the piece of paper was a Cartier ring, which matched his bracelet. 

Mitch slipped it onto his thin finger and looked up at Scott, 'Scott! You dumb nut! Of course I will!' He threw himself onto Scott and hugged him tight, tears flowing from his eyes, 'Don't ever let me leave,' Mitch whispered into Scott's neck. 'I won't, Munchie.. But it's nearly midnight and we haven't kissed under the mistletoe yet.. Which reminds me..'Mitch pulled away from Scott, looking at what he was doing. Scott reached for behind him and held the mistletoe gently, lifting it above him and Mitch. 'Merry Christmas, Munchkin.' Scott said, coming closer to Mitch, 'Merry Christmas, Honey Bear.' Mitch said, before closing the gab between him and Scott - sharing a passionate kiss with Scott.
