Tom and I ran down aisle to aisle, admiring the many pets and little critters they had here, and all the adorable little trinkets for the animals! Tom suddenly stopped running, making me crash into him, almost making us completely topple down onto the ground in a sloppy dogpile in the aisle of the shop. But Tom easily stood his ground, I, on the other hand, fell down on my butt. "Oww! Tom, what the hell?" I whined, I got up and dusted myself off without Tom even bothering to look at me. His pure black eyes were far too focused on something to respond. I quietly huffed and followed his gaze. He was staring at a small kitten in its little cage. Its fur was so fluffy and looked as smooth as silk, with brown and (h/c) colored fur, its eyes were such a dark brown they almost seemed to be pure black other than the slight (e/c) blue border-like hue to it. It was adorable! It mewed and brushed against the metal bars of the cage door separating us. Tom looked at me without saying a word, before our eyes could even meet he started digging around in his pockets, he pulled out his money. He didn't have enough with him for the adorable furball... He frowned and hung his head low in shame and defeat. Oh god, I hated seeing him like this! I dug through my bag. I had enough to get the kitten for Tom! I hid my excitement and looked away, I sadly sighed,"Sorry, Tom. Maybe next time we'll bring enough money for the little guy..." I comforted him,"But I want the little floof now...." Tom quietly pouted,"I know. I'm so sorry, Tom." I looked around the nearly empty shop for a second,"Why don't you go pet the doggos for a bit? I have to use the washroom, alright?" I smiled sweetly at him, mentally screaming at myself to not make it obvious I had something up my sleeve for him. He sighed,"Fine... See you at the Doggos." And with that we parted ways, he went to the section where people can pet the different dogs and puppies, and I pretended to go to the washroom. Instead, I found a worker and filled out the bit of paperwork and paid for getting Tom that adorable little kitten he was dying to have. . .* * * *
On Christmas day Edd, Matt, Tom, and I were surrounding the lovely pine tree, the smell of pine and delicious treats filled the room. As Edd and Matt destroyed the wrapping paper and partied over their gifts Tom sat in the chair seeming oh so annoyed and drinking alcohol. I walked over to him,"Something wrong, Tom?" I asked calmly,"It's Christmas! I fucking hate it!" he snapped at me. Oh yeah, he had an odd hatred for this holiday. I never really understood it... "Well... Care to at least accept a gift or two?" I asked with a small smile,"No! Gifts are as dumb as Matt's face!" he hissed,"Hey!" Matt whined from behind me, we both just ignored him almost simply out of habit.
"Just one."
"No."
"Just one tiny one, Tom!
"Nope, never."
"No Smirnoff than!"
"Ugh, fine! Gimme a stupid fucking present!"
Despite him swearing at me, I let it slide and got him the special present I had saved all this time. A simple blue wrapped box with three holes on the different sides just wrapped this morning for a few reasons, and none of them knew what was up or what's in it. I'm actually quite proud of it! Tom lazily tore apart the wrapping and tossed it where ever. He finally got to the box. He was slow about opening the box. Dead silence. "Mew." Is all we can hear from the box, not even Matt made a single sound. All we can hear was the kitty move around in the box and mewl at its new owner. Then in the blink of an eye, I was in Tom's arms, being crushed half to death in his arms as he snuggled me. "Thank you so much, (Y/N)! I love it! But I hate Christmas still." He grumbled the last bit but I ignored it a little, he got the present and he's happy. Still, despite this holiday being the one he hates the most he at least got the gift he was dying to have - other than guns and other unfriendly things -, and I was proud to have finally made him happy on this day.
"Oh (Y/N), Tom!~" Matt cooed, we broke the hug and looked at him,"What do you want?" Tom hissed in annoyance, Matt said nothing, he just smiled at Edd who sat next to him drinking cola. Edd snickered and pointed up at something as a silent response, making Tom and I look up almost instantly. A mistletoe. Mine and Tom's face turned so red it'd put tomatoes to shame! We stared at each other for what felt for hours, the tension building up by the second while Edd and Matt childishly cheered "Kiss" over and over, beating their fists in the air to show their enthusiasm about this moment.
Tom suddenly jumped away from me and the hanging mistletoe,"Nope! Not gonna happen, that's never happening! We're just friends! Got it? Bye!" Tom declared and started to leave the room with his kitten snuggled in his arms.
"Oh come on, Tim! It'll be your thank you gift for the fuzzball!" Matt whined,"Tom! And no!" Tom protested against the orange haired boy, Matt slumped back in his spot with a pout of defeat. I glanced at Edd for a second. All he did was shrug and a mischievous smirk appeared on his lips,"Well then maybe we can call Tord over for a visit. I'm sure he'll be fine with taking over the role of being under the mistletoe with (Y/N)!" Edd said in such a cheery tone that he ended up exaggerating my name with a soft sing-song like tone, making my face heat up and causing me to look away. Tom stopped dead in his tracks and glared at him,"We are not inviting that Commie bastard here!" he snapped at him,"Why? Matt and I aren't gonna do it, and clearly, you aren't either. Besides, maybe Tord will love to keep (Y/N) company under the mistletoe." Edd teased.
Tom roughly grabbed my arms, making me turn to look at him but his black void eyes were fixed on Edd,"We are not -fucking- inviting him here! Not now, not ever!" before any of us could even try to say anything in response Tom was kissing me, feeling so forced but so full of love. My face was on fire! But, no matter how flustered I was, I actually kissed back. The two boys cheered for us with a small laugh, Matt taking a picture of it.
Tom quickly broke it,"Matt! Delete that!" he demanded, Matt refused and they began to fight over the picture. Edd just enjoyed the show as he drank his cola. And me? I stood there, mind blank, gently touching my lips from my crush stealing my first kiss.
Best. Christmas. Ever.
