All Virgil wants for Christmas is Patton. He tells him that, Patton is touched but he meant like physically to open on Christmas day. For the prompt: "Tell me what you want for Christmas"

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

Virgil certainly isn't used to all of this. The festivities and buying people presents and people getting him presents. It's overwhelming yet heartwarming. He ignores the slight dread in the bottom of his stomach at the thought of just potentially getting someone the wrong thing as Patton sits down in front of him. They're sitting face to face on Virgil's bed, he mustn't of heard Patton come in but he smiles at the other when he smiles at him.

Patton takes Virgil's hands in his own, running his thumbs over his knuckles. And Virgil resists the instinct to flinch or pull away and simply lets Patton hold him. "Tell me what you want for Christmas," Patton speaks up, his voice soft and gentle, his seemingly constant excitable energy gone and replaced with a warm, steady vibe. Virgil wants to respond with 'nothing' or maybe 'anything you get me will be amazing'.

But he doesn't. Instead: "would it be too cheesy to say you?" Virgil asks quietly, hesitant and unsure as Patton doesn't respond immediately. But then he looks, really looks at Patton. His eyes are watery and a shaky smile on his face. And all Virgil can think is 'shit, shit, shit, shit', he's fucked up. "Aww, that's so sweet." And Patton's hugging his tightly, drawing him onto his lap and just holding him close, and Virgil thinks he might cry too.

They stay like that for a while until Patton lets him go. He scrambles off of Patton's lap, his cheeks flushed red slightly, but Patton doesn't let go of his hands just yet. "You know I mean physically to open on Christmas day, right?" Patton breaks the silence and Virgil laughs lightly at the other. "Yeah, I know, I know. I'd be happy with anything you get me to be honest," Virgil responds, attempting not to avoid Patton's gaze. And he's engulfed in a hug again, he's pretty sure Patton's full on crying again, so, he lets himself cry tears of happiness too.
