Driving home for Christmas

Summary: Dan and Phil visit the Lester's for Dan's first 'Lester family Christmas'
-

'Is that everything?' Phil called over to his boyfriend from the back of the car.
'Yeah, I think so' Dan replied.

Phil slammed shut the boot and clambered into the car seat next to Dan. They had crammed quite a lot of bags into the back of the car, they always packed a little to much, but they had everything they needed none the less.

It was Christmas Eve, and they were going to Phil's family home for the holidays. This was going to be Dan's first ever 'Lester family Christmas' so he was very excited. He usually spent Christmas will his family, of course, but as much as he loved his family it was nice to be going somewhere else.

By the time they had arrived at the Lester residence it was nearly 7pm. Both boys, despite being very tired, still greeted Phil's mum with a smile when she answered the door.
'Hello there dears' she grinned taking their bags.
'Hello mum' Phil said chirpily as he leaned in and hugged his mother.

'Hi' Dan muttered, stood awkwardly in the corner. He was desperately trying to hide his nerves with a smile.
'Oh come here you' Phil's mum grabbed Dan by arm and made him join in the hug.

'You're part of the family now love, you gotta get used to this' she laughed letting go finally as Dan turned bright red. Phil then decided to give him a comforting kiss on the cheek which made him blush even redder.

They really didn't have much energy left, the drive there had really taken it out of them. So they decided to head up to bed after a little while. Everyone seemed a little disappointed, Phil's brother Martyn muttered something like 'lightweights' under his breath but they all generally seemed to understand.

Being so tired the boys barely had to put their heads to their pillows before they fell asleep.

The next morning arrived. The dim light of sunrise was starting to seep through the curtains as Phil let out a deep yawn. Judging by the lack of noise he was the first to be awake. He looked down at the snoozing brown haired boy lying next to him and smiled, he was so beautiful. Phil loved everything about him, especially in the mornings, the way his hair was in crazy curls like a hobbit's, the way he acted all dopey and dazed, the way he...

Dan let out a long bear like yawn and sat up beside Phil who was trying to look 'innocent' as though he hadn't just been gawping in awe at his boyfriend. His smile gave it away though.
'What are you smiling at?' Dan asked suspiciously.
'You' Phil smirked looking into Dan's eyes. Dan yawned again.

'What time is it?'
'Uh lemme check' Phil looked at his phone, 8:00 am. But wait it was Christmas!
'Oh Dan I totally forgot, Merry Christmas!'
'How did you forget you spork?' Dan giggled affectionately.
'I don't know I guess I was to busy looking at you...'
They looked into each other's eyes again, but not for very long this time, Dan leaned in closer until his lips touched Phil's.

'Merry Christmas to you too' Dan whispered against Phil's lips.

After a little while Phil pulled away and fixed his gaze on Dan again. They heard voices and footsteps heading downstairs.
'Guess the rest of the family's up, come on let's go down' Phil got up, but Dan groaned.
'ughh, but it's so warm in bed next to you'
'But how are you gonna find out what I got you for Christmas if you stay there?' Phil asked.
'fine, I'm coming' Dan sighed as he got up and linked arms with Phil as they headed downstairs.
