"Hi, my love!" Scott says, as Mark approaches his car.

"Hi, baby," Mark giggles. "Did you have fun at Mitch's last night?"

"Yeah, I really did. What's got you giggly?"

Mark buckles his seatbelt. "You're cute, is why."

Scott rolls his eyes and leans forward to give Mark a kiss. "Ready to go pick out our tree?"

"Ready," Mark smiles.

It's about a 10 minute drive to the Christmas tree farm, and it's busy. They park, and grab hands as they head to look at the trees.

"Oh, baby, they have hot apple cider," Mark notices. "Let's get some!"

Scott is happy to comply, leads them both to the cider stand, buying one for each of them.

"I could have paid," Mark pouts.

"Nope," Scott hands Mark his apple cider, "My baby gets what he wants." He plants a kiss to Mark's forehead. "Cheers?"

"Cheers," They both sip their apple ciders.

Once they finish, they toss their cups in the trash and walk over to the Christmas trees.

"Sweetheart, how about this one?" Scott asks.

Mark looks at a tall, wide tree, bigger than he's ever put in his home.

"Will it fit in the house?" Mark asks, and Scott chuckles.

"Yeah, it should," Scott says. "It looks perfect, baby."

Mark smiles. "It does."

Scott leans closer to Mark, and kisses his temple, happily. Mark giggles as he does, looking back up at the tree afterwards.

"Aww!"

Scott and Mark look around for the source of the comment, and are met with a teenage girl.

"Hi, um, sorry, that was just a picture perfect moment," The girl says. "Did you...want me to take your picture?"

Scott smiles fondly. "Would you?"

The girl nods, and takes Scott's phone.

Scott kisses Mark's temple again, and Mark giggles again, because Scott is so sweet to him.

"C'mere," Scott says, before Mark leans in to make it a real kiss.

"Aww! You guys are so cute," the girl says.

Mark giggles again. "Thank you,"

Scott takes his phone back and they bring the tree home, ready to decorate.

"Scotty, can I have another box of ornaments?"
Mark asks.

"That's the last of them," Scott says.

They both take a step back, admiring their work.

"It's perfect," Mark says. "Do you like it, Scotty?"

Scott looks at Mark and smiles. "I think it's the best tree I've ever seen."

Mark leans up and kisses him at that. He can't really help himself.

"You're so cute," Scott says.

Mark shrugs. "I just love Christmas."

"I do too," Scott says, "And I love you, too."

"I love you," Mark responds, grin on his face. "Can we cuddle, now?"

Scott chuckles, the smile never leaving his face. "Of course, my love. Let's go."

Later, they both post the photo.
