Smutty Advent, Day 15

Billy chuckled as they got home, carrying all their shopping bags in. They'd had a good shop -- their list was now complete, he even had Montana's gift all sorted. And it was still well before Christmas. "Poor Marcus just hates shopping in crowds."

“He does. I’m always so busy this time of year.”

“You're closing the shop on the twentieth this year, right?" They were volunteering a few days at the soup kitchen this year, and had ordered a ton of Christmas cookies from Beat and Cream to deliver on Christmas Eve. But Billy wanted to spend more time just the two of them this year.

“Yeah, yeah. That’s okay, right?”

"It's perfect." He set the bags down and drew Tanny to him. "I want to spend more time with you. Maybe we could think of going somewhere for New Year's this year."

“That might be good, something quiet and private.”

Billy nodded. "On the beach. Or near it at least." He took a kiss, lips lingering.

“Works for me. I’m ready for a break.”

"Good. It'll be our Christmas present to us." Something for just the two of them. Not that he didn't love their friends, but he felt like he was missing his boy lately.

Tanny nodded. “I’d like that.”

"I think we should preview our holiday activities." He picked Tanny up, his boy's legs wrapping around his waist as he carried Tanny toward the bedroom.

“A preview, hrm. Are we going to play?”

"My brilliant boy." Laughing, he dumped Tanny onto the bed.

“That’s me, sparkling.”

Billy loved how happy Tanny was, and how happy Tanny made him.

"My very own Christmas light," he murmured.

“Dork.” Tanny looked pleased.

He didn't deny it. He'd be a fool for his boy, a dork, a nutjob, a needy master, or whatever silly, cheesy thing there was. Because Tanny was his Christmas all year 'round.

Leaning in and pressing their mouths together, he agreed with Montana the best way he knew how.
