Niall sighed deeply as he angrily threw his tie on his bed. This had been the 10th time that he ended up almost strangling himself with the tangled tie. He muttered some swear words and sat on his bed sadly. He heard his bedroom door opening and a laugh from his older brother followed.
''Why are you sitting there like an angry five year old?'' he asked, still chuckling.
Niall jerked his head to face his brother and glared at him. ''I can't get that stupid tie around my neck properly and it's really pissing me off, so if you don't want to get punched in the face, I suggest you stop laughing at me,'' Niall stood up and walked to the mirror again.
He sighed and started over again, like he had done earlier, with his tie around his neck and the two strings in his hands. He fumbled a bit with the black piece of clothing before giving up again. He saw his brother's amused smile as he watched him through the mirror.
''Don't just stand there, help me!'' Niall threw his hands up in defeat.
''Whoa, what crawled up your ass and died?'' Greg walked up to him and took the tie from Niall's hands. ''Why are you so determined to wear a tie? It's not like anyone special is coming for christmas dinner. I bet they won't care if you wear a tie or not.''
''What do you mean 'no one special'?'' Niall gaped at him. ''Harry is coming over tonight, how dare you saying that he's not special,'' Niall quickly defended his life long friend and crush.
''He's only special to you because you're in love with him. Now let me help you with this tie,'' Greg faced his little brother and tied the tie without efford.
''I'm not in love with him,'' Niall muttered. ''Just... like him.''
''Cut the crap, Ni. You're in love with him and there's really no point in denying that,'' Greg stated smartly. ''There you go,'' he said as he finished up Niall's tie.
Before Niall had time to make a comment about Greg's statement, the doorbell rang. Niall swiftly turned to his mirror to examine himself for the last time before dashing out of his room to welcome the guests. He stumbled down the stairs and fell straight in Harry's arms as he tripped on the last step.
''Wow, watch out, Ni. You okay?'' Harry chuckled, hoisting Niall back on his feet.
''Yeah, sorry, I'm okay,'' Niall grinned, blushing faintly.
He said hello to Harry's parents as they followed his own parents to the livingroom. Harry and Niall were just about to follow them too when they heard someone cough behind them. Greg came walking down the stairs with his hands behind his back, obviously hiding something.
''Hi Harry, my little bro was already excited to see you,'' Greg said with a wicked grin on his face. He saw Niall vigorously shake his head in his direction, motioning for him to stop talking about his lovestruck behaviour.
''Were you, Niall?'' Harry played along with Greg and grinned when Niall's face turned a pretty shade of red.
''I'm always excited to see you, you're my best friend,'' Niall murmered, ducking his head to hide his obvious blush.
''Nice to know,'' Harry laughed and ruffled Niall's hair affectionately. Niall raised his head to look at Harry's smiling face and couldn't look away from those green eyes.
''Oh look, it's a mistletoe! You know what that means!'' Greg sing-songed, holding a mistletoe above Harry's and Niall's head.
''Um, i-it's okay if you don't want to,'' Niall reassured Harry quickly, not wanting the other boy to feel pressured into doing something he didn't want to do.
''Oh, just be quiet and kiss me,'' Harry grabbed Niall's face and pushed his lips on Niall's. Niall immediately responed by wrapping his arms around Harry's back and slowly nudging Harry's lips back. Niall faintly heard Greg walk to the living room, leaving them alone kissing in the hallway.
Their kiss ended with a few pecks but Harry didn't let go of Niall's face. Instead, he pressed his forehead against Niall's and opened his eyes slowly.
''So, I guess you like me back then?'' Harry asked while entwining his fingers with Niall's. Niall nodded quickly and pecked Harry's cherry red lips again.
''So now you're my boyfriend,'' Harry made it sound more like a statement than a question.
''That's a new way of asking someone to date you, but okay I'll be your boyfriend,'' Niall giggled happily and hugged Harry's neck tightly. Harry hugged him back and grabbed his hand afterwards.
''C'mon, I want to introduce my boyfriend to my parents,'' Harry bumped shoulders with Niall and pulled him to the living room where everyone was happily chatting about everything and nothing.
And when Harry and Niall walked in hand in hand, nobody was really surprised. The families both knew the two boys had a thing for each other and it was only a matter of time before they came out for their feelings. They all found it absolutely adorable and cooed everytime Harry made Niall blush and hide his face in the crook of Harry's neck as they cuddled in the big armchair in front of the fireplace.
