Christmas Memories:
To Hate or Love Christmas
Kai had always hated Christmas.
Well, who wouldn't when you grew up in a soldier training center that always turned the holiday into an evil, terrified day that lurked on the calendar, waiting for its day to spread its horridness? So he learned to nurse his sorrows with vodka. Bailey's, whisky, sake, tequila, brandy, rum, scotch… It didn't matter, as countries he was in made all the liquirs blend together, but one thing that did matter—it made him forget. It made him forget every miserable Christmas, every terrible "scratches", every un-received present, every smiling face, every… just… everything!
All in all, Kai hated Christmas.
Takao loved Christmas.
He loved all the warm, soft-smelling alcohol. He loved watching his grandfather's friends and his grandfather, all sitting around, the smell of warm rum drifting through the dojo, his brother sitting tall, a 'girl' resting on his arm. He remembers snow, and friends, and laughter, and candy, and his mother, and his father, and that girl. And that's what Christmas was about, right? And he couldn't wait to add Kai to his Christmas memories.
So Takao loved Christmas—who wouldn't?
Quinlan hated Christmas.
Not because he wasn't religious or because it marked the date his was let out of the torture center onto the soldier field. Not even because it was the day Hitoshi accidentally tore him on the inside, since it was their first time making love. It wasn't because his first son was born into hell on that day, either. No. Why did he hate Christmas? Because. Just because, that's was it.
Just because was the reason Quinlan hated Christmas.
Hitoshi loved Christmas.
Though he wouldn't say it, and didn't show it except for rare occasions, but Hitoshi loved Christmas. It was the day he first took Quinlan, it was the day he first saw that little feminine face in a frost-clouded window, and it was the day he found out he was going to be a father. Hitoshi wouldn't give the world for Christmas time, when Quinlan is safely tucked in his arms, sitting on the taller man's lap and their little boy plays at their feet with colored blocks.
Hitoshi wouldn't give Christmas up for the world.
