*set while Ashton was 17 and Michael was 16, in this they go to school together and the band isn't a thing so don't yell at me saying they didn't go to school together* *also they aren't in Australia bc I wanted some cute cold weather Christmas cuddling*

It was a cold morning, about a week before Christmas. Michaels favorite holiday. Ashton's least favorite holiday. But Michael didn't know that.

"A-Ashy?" Michael shivered, waiting outside the school for the gates to open.

"Yeah Mike?" Ashton looked down at the shorter boy. Ashton honestly wasn't that cold, so he took his jacket off and put it on mikey.

"Hey do-don-dont-don't do that. It's snowing Ash, you'll catch a cold." Mikey protested. Mikey had a slight stutter, and the cold was making it worse. (A/n: Sorry I'm tryna make it kinda how my stutter except when I stutter it takes like 5+ minutes to say one word so like I'm tryna make it seem like that? If that makes sense idk bye)

"It's fine Mikey. What was your question?" Ashton ran a hand threw his hair to get the snow out of it.

"Oh! Do you wanna come make cookies? Like chris-Christ-chri- FUCK" Michael often got annoyed with his stutter and just cussed, sighed, and re tried the word or just used a different word. Though Ashton usually knew what he meant, so he didn't always have to do that. "Holiday cookies."

"Uh Mike, about that.." he trailed off. But then he looked in Michaels eyes and even though he hated the holiday and everything to do with it, he agreed.
"Yeah of course. When?"

"Tonight? After sc-school?" Ashton nodded and then the bell rang. Mikey squealed in joy, hugged Ashton, said bye and ran to class.

*le time skip to lunch*

During lunch, Mikey and Ash sat with their best friends Cal and Luke. They called them Cake, because they were a couple and that's their ship name.

Calum was holding Luke, while Luke and Ashton were arguing about if Luke was a bottom or not.

"I'm not a bottom." Luke whined.
"You fucking radiate sub energy, mate" Ashton laughed and took a bite of his lunch.
This had been going on for about 5 minutes.

"I'm as much of a bottom as Michael is" Michael looked up from his phone, his face bright red.
"Actually Luke, I'm hella a bottom." He whispered.

"Okay okay, I've had sex with Luke I can end this argument. Luke is a bottom." Calum announced to Michael and Ashton.

"Caaaalll!" Luke whined.
"Ha! I'm good at this." Ashton beamed. Talking about stuff like this was a daily routine.

Then he looked over at Michael, the small boy was shivering. He looked so cold. So Ashton decided to pull michael into his lap.

"Wha-" Michael squealed as Ashton grabbed him. Then he was in Ashton's lap. "Oh"

"You looked cold." He said and put his chin on Michaels shoulder, wrapping his arms around Michaels waist and ignoring the looks coming from Luke and Cal.

"Thanks" Michael whispered. And they spent the rest of lunch that way.

*another time skip*

Ashton should have known that he and Michael wouldn't take anything seriously. Now there's flour and chocolate chips all over Michaels kitchen.

How did this happen you ask?

Well, Michael and Ashton were making Christmas cookies and listening to music (thankfully not Christmas music).

Then, Mikey couldn't reach the chocolate chips from the top of the freezer.

Ashton came up behind him and grabbed them for Mikey.
"Hey I coulda do-done-done it" Mikey pouted.
"You're just a bit too short, love" Ashton laughed.

"No-not-not too short for th-i-thi-this" Mikey smiled and threw some flour at Ashton, the flour getting all over his face.

"Oh now it's on" and they ended up throwing flour and chocolate chips at each other, while dancing to Panic! At The disco.

After all of that, they cleaned up, showered (separately ofc) and then finished the cookies.

Ashton noticed the mistletoe in the door way and casually went to stand in the door way.
"Hey Mike, come here."

When Michael stood in front of Ashton, Ashton put his hands on Michaels hip and gently pushed him against the wall.

"Mistletoe." He whispered.
Michael looked up at the mistletoe and then back at Ashton will a blush on his face.

"Oh yeah my mom put it up. Good luck, she says." Michael whispered back, he silently was thankful he didn't stutter this time.

Ashton leaned down and kissed the younger boy, Michael immediately kissing back.

"I'd have to agree with her." Ashton said as he pulled away. "Remind me to thank her for putting it up." He winked.
Michael nodded and kissed the older boy again.

'Maybe this Christmas won't be too bad.' Ashton thought.
