[This is just a silly christmas one shot i hope you enjoy it.]

Shane's pov

Christmas, what's the first thing you think about? Either presents, food, family time, or alone time if you like that. Usually christmas is a joyfilled occassion for everyone who celebrates it. It's that time of year that you get to just relax with friends and family. But there's a problem, that's not how i view christmas at all.

Personally i think that christmas is just another day, and it's an inconveinence. Like getting home from someone else's house is a fucking nightmare because of the christmas travellers as i call them. It seems as if people know how much i wanna get home but they decide to cause traffic instead.

No, i haven't always hated christmas i actually really loved it. I didn't always have this so called scrooge like attitude. I actually have a valid reason for it.

It was christmas morning, i was about to propose to my long term girlfriend lisa. But on that exact day she broke it off and left me with a broken heart. Ever since then i've always thought of christmas to be another idiotic day. So i try my best to avoid it. Yes, i still have a tree but it doesn't have lights and it only has a few ornaments.

I don't exactly care to be in the christmas spirit if i don't care about it. Now, it was just another day in boston, i was walking around the park.

My gloved fingers dug deeply into my pockets as i passed tons of couples and families looking at the park lights. I was on my way to get coffee but i then noticed the spectacle of the park. It was a giant Christmas tree with snow gently falling on it. It was actually quite pretty but i really wanted my coffee.

I guess i got lost in my thoughts because i rammed into someone making that person fall and i stumbled backwards.

Shane: Oh god, i'm so sorry let me help you.

???: No it's alright, i'm a clumsy person.

I smiled and helped him up as i got a good look at his face. His face was smooth and cute with red blushing cheeks. His bright green eyes reminded me of mistletoes. He was bundled in a rather thick jacket and a beanie covering his hair and ears. He had on black jeans and boots to match.

???: Um i'm joey.

Shane: I'm shane, again sorry for running into you.

Joey: Oh it's alright don't worry.

I then noticed he shivered and deep inside i wanted to get to know him really badly. Yes i've only known him for one minute but he just seems interesting.

Shane: Hey, wanna go grab a coffee with me?

Joey: Um, sure thank you.

I nodded and we both walked to the little shop across the park and we both sat at a table inside of the warm building. His cheeks were still red but i'm just happy i could see his face better.

After an awkward wait our coffees came and we slowly sipped the hot substances.

Joey: So, are you here for christmas?

Shane: Well i live here, and well, i don't really....do christmas.

Joey's pov

I raised an eyebrow and looked at him strangely, i've never met someone who doesn't do christmas. Everyone i know likes it.

Joey: Well....why not? Christmas is a fun time of year.

Shane: I don't know, i just think it's a waste of time really.

Joey: How could you think that?

Shane: I've had some bad memories, that's all.

Joey: They can't be that bad
