That's all I wanted - LAMP

Virgil wasn't one for parties, especially Christmas, that was until he fell hopelessly and desperately in love with three idiots who happen to love Christmas an unhealthy amount. For the prompt: "One normal Christmas, that's all I wanted" Human AU

---------------------------------------

Virgil wasn't one for celebrations, events, festivities, parties, fiestas, etcetera, etcetera. He wasn't. Key word 'wasn't'. He wasn't until he happened to wind up in this relationship with the most amazing guys he could think of. Virgil hadn't had the best family, so, his Christmases weren't the best but he managed. But now. Now they were extravagant, thousands of lights and decorations filling the inside and outside of the house.

His boyfriends working together to create festive foods, Christmas movies running 24/7 on their TV, Christmas jumpers for everyday of the week. It was overwhelming to say the least, they didn't exactly warm him to it slowly rather dropped him in at the deep end, hoping he'd swim not sink.

It's only December the second and Virgil is already regretting moving into Patton's where they had access to the most decorations. Virgil walks downstairs and is immediately greeted with the sight of lots of excessive yet tasteful decorations, he's sure Logan instructed it otherwise it would've been more of a clashing mess. "One normal Christmas, that's all I wanted!" Virgil exclaims, exaggeratingly exasperated but sarcastic nevertheless.

Only one of his boyfriend's turn his head to look at him. Logan raises an eyebrow, implying that he either wants Virgil to explain further or is telling Virgil that he should have expected this. "This is normal!" Roman almost shouts, his hands in the air in a show of triumph as he finishes hanging the lights by the window, Patton grins at the sight of the finished decorations and Logan slow claps but has a genuine smile on his face.

"No, no, no, normal is a few lights, a decorated tree, that's it. Not all this." Virgil states, his voice stern in an attempt to tell the others off but his expression betrays him, then he's laughing lightly and smiling. "You love it really!" Patton exclaims, practically running over to Virgil and engulfing him in a hug, and Virgil grumbles in mock complaint, "yeah, sure I do."

"Aww group hug!" Roman shouts and Patton keeps Virgil in a tight grip so he can't escape; Virgil admits defeat and hides his face in Patton's shoulder, hearing Logan groan as Roman hauls him off the sofa. Logan's arms loosely circle Virgil and Patton's waist, he presses a gently kiss into Virgil's hair then one on Patton's cheek. Roman stands in the other gap so Virgil is boxed in between the three of them, his arms briefly squeeze Virgil around his midsection before holding the other two, Virgil's side leaning into his chest.

"Okay, I feel like I'm being held hostage now," Virgil mutters, yet he doesn't move. They don't move for a while, when they do it's only to move to the sofa, avoiding the discarded decorations everywhere. Virgil would deny that he fell asleep in someone's lap, waking up later in bed surrounded by so much love he felt as if he could cry, he didn't though instead choosing to go back to sleep. So what if it wasn't a normal Christmas, he wouldn't have it any other way.
