Dave & John

It's frigin five o'clock in the morning, you should be asleep right now, but you had too much on your mind, you felt guilty. You forgot to buy Egbert a Christmas present. He had been babbling about how you were going to love your gift, though at the time you just kind of brushed it off, you didn't need gifts. You had everything you wanted, the air in your lungs, a wicked turn table, apple juice, and of course your lover John Egbert. It hadn't hit you until earlier that day, if Egbert got you a gift, than he must have been expecting one in return.

You nibbled on your bottom lip nervously, how the hell were you going to get a gift before tomorrow morning? The mall would be jammed packed with people for sure. "mmn, Dave?" you jumped a bit and turned your attention to John who was still fast asleep, thank god for that. You sighed softly, "How could I forget" you whispered before slowly reaching out and stroking Egbert's face. John was almost seventeen, but his face was so small and cute like that of a child's, It was if he hadn't aged at all since the two of you were kids. Your stomach flipped and flopped as you began to grow nauseous just thinking how John's face would look when he realized that his boyfriend had forgotten his gift.

You leaned your head back against the head board and closed your eyes. You were so tired, you didn't want to think anymore, but apparently your brain didn't care, there was no way in hell it was going to let you sleep until you got that damn present! You looked back over at John and quickly kissed his forehead before getting out of bed and getting dressed. Maybe if you hurried you could still beat traffic.

…Be the sleepy brunette…

Not only did you wake up freezing, but freezing and alone. You were quite surprised when you didn't find your blonde headed boyfriend fast asleep beside you. You looked around, the bathroom was door was wide open and the lights were off. "Maybe he's downstairs?" you mumbled to yourself before forcing yourself off the bed. This wasn't like Dave at all, he would never wake up this early, not even if his life depended on it. If it was up to him he would sleep for days on end. You made your way downstairs and glanced around the living room before making your way to the kitchen, "Dave?" you called. There was no answer. "What the heck is going on here" you mused.

You quickly walked over to the window and rubbed a pale hand over the frosted glass. Dave's car was gone, nothing was starting to add up, you were beginning to worry. Dave wasn't the type to run off without telling you, and if he did go somewhere he usually left a note, you hadn't seen a note when you got up. Something just wasn't right.

…Be the flustered Blonde…

Why people enjoyed shopping so close to Christmas was beyond you. The stores were packed; you never thought you had to worry about being claustrophobic until now. It was ridiculous. You pushed your way through several groups of people, you almost tripped trying to dodge a heard of excited children, and every time you thought of a good present to get John someone else just magically happened to snatch it before you could. This was hell. Complete and total hell.

You wanted to give up, maybe Egbert wouldn't take it so hard. Everything was almost gone anyways; it would just be pointless to keep going. You rubbed your temples feeling not only aggravated, but you felt like a failure as well. You pushed your way through the crowd once again, and headed for home. John was probably going to want an explanation since you didn't exactly tell him where you were going or when you would be back. You would probably just lie and tell him you didn't want to wake him. You wanted to forget about the store and all the obnoxious people.

You pulled up to the house and sighed softly when you spotted a pissed off looking brunette standing in the drive way. "Oh dear.." you mumbled softly. You gave a small smile when you got out of the car and gulped seeing that John's expression hadn't faltered. He wasn't going to have any of your shit today. "Uhh" you muttered not really knowing what you should say. You really didn't want to say something stupid, it may just be the last thing you ever do. "Where were you?" John crossed his arms over his chest and raised a thin eyebrow.

"I was just out and about" you simply stated with a shrug. "Dave!" John whined knowing that was complete and total bull. You pushed your shades up and stuck your hands in your pockets. John ripped your shades away from your face and stared into your eyes seriously. You groaned and looked away, "I was at the store" you grumbled. "Why?" Egbert asked curiously, you shrugged again. You were frustrating him, you knew you were, and you felt bad, but you just couldn't tell him you were out looking for a Christmas gift for him last minute. "I just needed some air" you spoke softly and gave another small smile.

John opened his mouth to protest, but you hushed him with a small kiss. "Don't think you can get out of this just because you're a good kisser" John hissed. You grinned before stealing your glasses and sliding them back on your face. "I'm a good kisser?" you teased; John blushed and rolled his eyes. "Just shut up and get inside…it's freezing out here" he grumbled before stomping inside. You laughed softly, John was really something special, and he really did deserve a special gift.

….Be John…

Dave was acting so strange, you wish he would just tell you what was going on. You had a right to know after all…didn't you? He never hid anything from you before, why was it different now. You looked back at Dave who looked lost in his thoughts. You sighed softly; it seemed as if you would just have to wait until Dave was ready to tell you. You would have to be patient, which wasn't something you were particularly good at. Dave locked himself in his room for most of the day while you cooked and cleaned the house up a bit. You tried once or twice to peek into his room to see what was going on, but he locked the door.

This must have been something serious, you really wanted to wait for Dave to tell you in his own good time, but this was downright killing you. You didn't know how long you could take this. "Dave?!" you called as you knocked on his door. There was no answer; you called again, still no answer. You groaned loudly and stomped into the living room. You had to find out what that idiot was up to.

…Be Dave…

You grinned to yourself, you had the perfect gift for Egbert, and you just couldn't believe that it had taken you so long to figure it. You wrapped the gift in a small box and tied a red ribbon around. You stuffed it under your pillow and opened your bedroom door. Everything was all set, now you would just have to figure out a way to sneak the gift underneath the Christmas tree without Egbert knowing. You made your way into the living room, where a pissed off looking John sat.

You plopped down on the couch beside him and kissed his cheek. "I will figure out what you're up to, you know I will" you glared at you. "You'll find out in the morning" you smiled gently. "What's up with you? You were all upset earlier and now you're chipper and better than ever, I think you have a constant case of pms" he stuck his tongue out at you. "Yep you got me, I've been pms-ing like crazy…got any tampons?" you grinned. "…You disgust me" John quickly stood up, but before he could go anywhere you grabbed him and pulled him into your lap.

You leaned close and blew on his neck, you laughed softly as he began to squirm and whine. You ignored his curses and threats and moved your head so that it was close to his ear. You didn't do anything at first; John eventually stopped moving probably wondering what you were up to now. You blew in his ear before gently nibbling on it and pulling away, but now before you flicked your tongue out and licked his earlobe. Egbert shivered, it had been a while since you two had done anything hot and steamy, and you guess it was your fault, you had been so busy with work, poor John must have felt neglected, but you would make it up to him right now. John said nothing, did nothing; his breath was coming out in shaky pants, you weren't at all surprised, the kid didn't have as much stamina as you did. You leaned close to his neck and gently pecked at it with your chapped lips, though you grew bored eventually and began sucking the skin underneath your lips leaving dark purple spots as you went.

John let out a soft whimper; you pulled away and hugged him closed to your chest. "Sorry, I can stop if you want" you whispered against his shoulder. He turned around so that the two of you were face to face. "…you can keep going…if you want" he mumbled. "Would you like me to?" you gave your signature strider smirk. Crimson red washed over John's cheeks, one of the things you loved most about John was that he was so easily flustered.

"Fuck you" he whined before sliding off of your lap and onto the couch. "Now we're talking" You smiled as you pinned John down and captured his lips in a mind-blowing kiss.

…Be John…

Dave was such a cocky bastard, he pissed you off, but you would yell him later. The two of you hadn't been this…involved in forever. You wrapped your arms around his neck and parted your lips allowing his moist tongue to slip into your mouth and explore its new territory. You brushed your tongue against Dave's before teasingly pulling it away. Dave groaned into the kiss, you didn't really know if it was out of annoyance or because he was so hot and bothered, you didn't really care. You slowly reached up and grabbed a handful of Dave's hair before pulling rather roughly. Dave moaned into your mouth and pulled away. You pulled off his glasses and through them somewhere on the floor. "Oops" you smiled feigning innocence. Dave raised an eyebrow before taking your glasses and doing the same. "Oops" mimicked you before grinning.

You pulled Dave down by his shirt and bit his lip harshly, you lapped the blood up before letting him sit up a bit. Shirts went flying along with pants, and soon after boxers. After being carried to Dave's room, you were thrown on the bed…rather roughly you might add; and pinned down once again. Dave jerked his hips forward grinding his bony hips against your own. You moaned softly and pushed your hips upwards wanting to feel more of that delicious friction, but you denied it.

Dave held your hips down and turned his attention to your collarbone instead. "You're such a tease" you whimpered. "Only for you darling" he spoke before slowly starting to grind his hips against yours again. You tilted your head back, and closed your eyes. "Dave, Please" you whined. "hmm? What?" he tilted his head. "Just stop teasing me and get on with it" you opened his eyes and stared up at him pathetically. "Get on with what?" you tilted his head to the other side. "Quit playing dumb! You know what I mean!" your growled. "Can't say I do pipsqueak" he smiled, he was just giddy with excitement…you could tell.

"You just…do me already" you rolled your eyes. "Do me?. That doesn't really sound as sexy as the words I was thinking of" he laughed softly. You whined loudly, "Alright Alright, you're lucky it's Christmas" he smiled.

The blonde above you leaned his forehead against your shoulder before slowly entering. He waited for you to adjust not wanting to hurt you. He liked teasing you and everything, but inflicting that kind of pain on you would have just been cruel. After a few minutes you began to move your hips slowly, signaling him that it was alright to move, and move he did. The rhythm was slow, but then it only seemed to grow faster and faster.

Dave's name and a couple of curses came pouring out of your mouth, you couldn't help but repeat Dave's name over and over, it was as if it was the only thing you knew how to say, it was like your brain wouldn't let you say anything else. You dragged your nails down Dave's pale back, leaving crescent moon shapes on one side and red lines on the other. "Dave…I…Cant…do…it…anymore" you spoke between choked moans. He groaned in response before slowly reaching down and stroking you in time with his thrusts which threw you over the edge.

Seconds after Dave came down from his high as well. He panted softly as he rolled off of you. You looked over at your lover, he was a trembling pale sweaty mess and he still looked hot. "We should have done that sooner" you smiled. Dave nodded slowly before slowly opening his eyes and staring up at the ceiling. "I'm sorry…I've been so busy lately" you snuggled close and laid your head against his chest. "You have been busy…but it's okay. Really it is, you work hard, I'm really proud" you smiled.

…Be Dave…

You leaned over and kissed John's head. "Go to sleep Egderp" you smiled before pushing the hair that still clung to his sweaty face away from his eyes. John happily complied, he closed his eyes and after a few minutes he was fast asleep. You were kind of expecting him to throw some kind of a fit, but since he hadn't, he must have really been exhausted. After tucking John in, you quickly pulled on some boxers and grabbed the gift from under your pillow, you needed to hide this under the Christmas tree before you forgot.

You really hoped John liked your gift, a part of you knew he would. It was pretty unique, just like John. After placing it under the tree you hopped back in to bed and went right to sleep. You had no idea you could be this tired, you did have a busy day after all.

…Be John…

"Dave! Dave! Wake up!" You grinned as you jumped up and down on the bed. Dave groaned as he placed a pillow over his head, "Come on get up, it's Christmas!" you exclaimed. Dave wasn't as enthusiastic as you, and you had a feeling at this time in the morning he wasn't going to be, ever. You rolled your eyes before dashing out of the room and going to the Christmas tree. You had so many gifts to open it was hard to decide which one to open first. You decided to go with a present wrapped in green wrapping paper.

You ripped the package over and grinned, "ooo this must be from Kanaya" in the package was a very well knitted blue scarf with your heir of breath emblem on it in a lighter shade of blue. You wrapped it around your neck and rubbed your cheek against it.

"Cozy" you laughed softly before moving onto the next gift. You opened gift after gift until you only had one left. You opened the small gift and smiled, it was a cd. "This has Dave written all over it" you thought yourself before walking over to the stereo, popping in the Cd, and then hitting play. Dave's voice started low and soft, but then picked up as the chorus began to play. The song was about you, and everything that he and you had been through together, it was beautiful, it was probably the best gift you received.

It was so thoughtful. And…you shook your head, you couldn't really describe what it was, but it meant something to you. The song ended with him laughing and mumbling the words merry Christmas. "So did you like it?" you turned you attention to Dave who was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. "I loved it" you smiled, Dave sighed in relief and held his arms out to you. "I really didn't know what to get you…" he mumbled in your hair. "Well, this is perfect" you looked up at him and smiled gently when you received a kiss on the nose. "Oh! I almost forgot your present" You grabbed the present from under the tree and tossed it at Dave who caught it easily.

You watched as he opened the gift and smiled, "Apple Juice, Some new stuff for my turn tables, and a coupon for pizza?" he raised an eyebrow. "…I didn't know what else to get you" you shrugged. Dave laughed softly before hugging you, "I love it dude thanks" "Merry Christmas Dave" You smiled up at him. "Merry Christmas Pipsqueak" he chuckled softly.
