The warmth from the fire and the quiet hum of music from the stereo was about to put you to sleep when the doorbell rang. You let out an angry sigh and walked to the door, deliberately slowly. 

"(Y/N), faster please, it's freezing!" Tom called. You laughed to yourself, opening the door to your two best friends. Of course instead of just bringing themselves they brought gifts, but you knew they would.

"It's Christmas and you're wearing that?" Benedict teased, eyeing your sweat pants and sweatshirt. 

"Yes, now come on! I was just about to fall asleep and you ruined it," you laughed, letting them in. Very quickly you all settled on the couch drinking cocoa and talking. The two of them were constantly out of town and decided they would come out for an early Christmas 'party'. 

"What's Manchester been up to then?" Benedict asked, looking up at you upside down. 

"Nothing exciting enough to be noteworthy. I don't need to ask you guys though, it's all on the news. Congrats, Ben. I forgot to say it when you walked in." 

"Thank you, on behalf of Soph and I." 

"I'm happy for you, guys," you grinned, "Where is she anyway?"

"Oh, she's with her siblings in the mountains. When she gets back we're spending Christmas at my parent's."

"How about you, Tommy. What're you doing?" you asked. You and Tom had been an on and off thing since you met, almost twelve years to date.

"Probably you," he smirked, before answering properly, "I think my parents. Maybe one of my sisters. Maybe both. Maybe alone. Maybe here."  

"So wherever the wind takes you?" Benedict teased, poking at the fire with another log. Tom made a face at his back and turned back to you.

"it is alright if I end up staying here, right?"

"Yeah, I don't mind. I havn't got anything planned. Just me and my kitty," you replied, referring to your grey old cat that was lounging under your little tree. The clock struck 10 and you started to open gifts. The boys started. A new Rolex for Benedict, as well as a Star Trek magnet with his face on it. Two ties and a bowtie for Tom, along with a Loki Pop!Doll. Next you opened your presents, very carefully and slowly. Tom's was pictures with signatures from the entire Avenger's and Thor cast, which he received hugs and thanks for. Benedict complained that his was nothing in comparison, but he gave it to you and you practically screamed. It was one of the original copies of Sherlock Holmes, which he'd been given, but didn't really appreciate them, as he put it.

The three of you watched old Christmas movies until Benedict left, which was around midnight. Tom looked content on staying and insisted that he would sleep on the couch if he had to. Tom fiddled with your stereo and you watched him for a bit until Michael Buble's Christmas album started playing. Tom pulled you to your feet and twirled you around the living room to It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas. Next My Chemical Romance's All I Want for Christmas came on and you both laughed as you attempted to dance in step with the screaming band. As the song ended you didn't hear the next song start, you were too busy watching Tom. He was rolling around on the floor with your cat and you laughed, playing with the hissy furball. After a while Tom went to sleep and you cleaned up quietly before heading up to bed. However the next morning you found that Tom had tucked himself into the other side of your bed.
