Dean slept peacefully in the Cal King bed that him and Seth shared when he felt Seth snuggling up closer to him. Seth kissing at Dean's neck moaning slightly as Dean heard Seth chuckle as Dean smirked.
"What time is it and why are you laughing?" Dean mumbled not wanting to wake up, Seth should know by now that Dean loved his sleep and hated being woke up from his slumber.
"It's 11 PM."
"Really? Why are you trying to wake me up? I have barely gotten any sleep." Dean said not even trying to open his eyes wanting to go back to sleep.
"But we will be late."
"For what?" Dean asked.
"Black Friday, stores are opening anywhere between midnight and 2 AM and we will miss out on everything Dean."
"But Seth, I'm exhausted, I ate too much turkey earlier." Dean said.
"I can't go alone Dean, I don't want to splurge too much and I need help fighting off the other people."
"Ugh, why do we need to go do this again?" Dean asked as he opened his eyes seeing Seth's dark brown eyes staring back at him with a smile and Dean knew that Seth was beyond ecstatic about this whole Christmas thing.
"I was going to get new gym gear and they have this gaming system on sale because yours is pretty much dead along with a few other things." Seth said as Dean groaned.
"Alright, can I just go in sweats?" Dean asked curiously.
"Of course baby, it's going to be cold." Seth said as he smiled wider as he got off the bed quickly. Dean groaned as he rolled out of the bed going to find his sweats changing out of his current clothes into the sweats before he began to bundle up more knowing that it was going to be cold and sweats weren't going to cut it. Dean walked out seeing Seth already tightening his shoelaces before he stood up pulling a beanie on over his head as Dean rolled his eyes as he pulled his wallet and keys off the breakfast bar.
"Where are we going for these things?" Dean asked not so enthused about going tonight.
"We are going to Target." Seth said as Dean nodded as he let Seth lead the way out to his car and Dean locked up behind him before he joined Seth by the vehicle. Dean unlocked the car before both of them slid into the car before Dean started it up letting the window defrost some before he began to drive. Dean pulled out of the driveway heading to the closest Target, Dean figured the closer they were to home the closer and sooner they could get home so he could go back to sleep, that was what he wanted most right about now and he didn't understand why he needed to come out at 11 PM on Thanksgiving night to wait in line to save a measly few bucks and he didn't care about the new gaming system, true it was getting pretty beaten up but it wasn't that important but this was something Seth did every year and Dean supported it, Dean loved Seth and had to accept these little quirks. Seth did this ever since he was a kid so this was like a regular yearly thing so Dean went along with it because he loved Seth. Dean parked in the first spot that he had found in the pretty pact lot, Dean was merely surprised that he had even found a spot because it was that full. Dean climbed out of the car locking the car up as he met Seth at the trunk gripping Seth's hand where he interlaced his fingers with Seth's as they walked the distance up to the line that was already pretty long and wrapped around the one corner of the building. Dean and Seth got into the filled line, Dean stuck his arms out letting Seth bury his frame against Dean's to use their body warmth to further warm each other up. Dean's arms wrapped tightly around Seth smiling, Dean just loved that Seth was happy and if this is what made Seth happy then Dean was happy.
"When do they open?" Dean asked.
"1." Seth answered.
"So we have an hour and a half?" Dean asked as Seth nodded as he looked up at Dean smiling and Seth kissed at Dean's neck.
"I love you." Seth said as he buried his head against the curve of Dean's neck.
"I love you too handsome." Dean said kissing at Seth's neck holding Seth tightly, Dean didn't want to spend that amount of time outside in the cold but he was going to do. It seemed like time was going by fast, just what Dean would hope it would and when it came time, Seth was like bee to honey. Seth just took off leaving Dean in the dust as Dean just casually strolled in not sure what to do as Seth was going to grab whatever it was that he wanted or needed. Dean sat in the snack bar area with a few other guys that didn't seemed to be interested in this whole thing and Dean knew that Seth was going to call him when he was done. Dean felt his phone vibrating in his pocket pulling it out seeing Seth's face and name, "Hello?" Dean asked with a smile.
"Dean, they have this TV on sale and I really want it…could we get it but I need help, where are you?" Seth asked as Dean chuckled at how confused Seth was and excited at the same time he was.
"I'm at the snack bar, I'll be right there and protect that TV with your life." Dean said sarcastically as he stood up heading towards the entertainment section of the store seeing just that.
"That one." Seth said as Dean looked over the television and it was a good deal as both Dean and Seth were able to use their muscles and such to manipulate the box into their cart amongst the other stuff that was already in their cart.
"Anything else baby?" Dean asked as he rested a hand on the arch of Seth's back.
"No, I wasn't even supposed to get this bad boy." Seth said rubbing his hand over the big television box that was hanging out of the cart as Dean and Seth both helped push or pull the cart to the front and now they wait in a line to check out with the very few items that they had. "We need to go to the mall after this."
"Why? I thought you got everything you needed here, you even got this television." Dean asked.
"Because, I just want to see what they have."
"But Seth, do we really need to go?"
"Yes, why are you complaining? All you do is just sit aside and watch."
"Because you woke me up at 11 PM to go out for you to buy things that are on sale, things we don't even need." Dean explained his side.
"If you are so tired, just drop me off at the mall and take this stuff home and I'll take the bus home later." Seth said as he turned his back to Dean and Dean could see that Seth crossed his arms over his chest.
"Seth…it's not like that…" Dean said as he wrapped his arms around Seth's waist pulling Seth back against his frame and kissed at Seth's neck.
"Then what is it like Dean?" Seth asked with a huff as he turned towards where Dean was kissing at.
"You just know I don't get this whole black Friday thing…and you know that I love my sleep."
"But if you don't like it then why do you come with me?" Seth asked as he turned around.
"Because I love you and if this is something you love, then I want to support you. I love seeing you being so excited about things."
"I just wish that you would be more supportive and love it more, you know how much this time of year means to me and hearing you complain about it hurts my feelings." Seth said as Dean let out a sigh.
"You're right and I'm sorry." Dean said as he kissed at Seth's forehead, "The mall it is." Dean said as he smiled and Seth smiled bright hugging Dean tightly.
"I promise you that it'll be worth the wild." Seth said as Dean let out sigh and he only hoped that Seth was right about that. Seth paid for the items before Dean pushed the cart out to the car where he loaded the things into the car trying not to injure himself to put himself out of work. Dean climbed into the car letting out a sigh seeing that it is now a little after 1 AM and he still had time to kill at the mall. Seth climbed into the passenger seat buckling up and smiled when he looked to Dean, "I love you." Seth said leaning over kissing Dean's cheek. "Let's go." Seth said as he nodded as he pulled out of the parking lot driving them to the mall where he couldn't find a spot other than across the street from the mall at a Denny's. Dean climbed out and locked the car after the both of them climbed out of the car. Dean and Seth met at the front of the car where Dean slid his hand into Seth's leading him to the cross walk before they crossed the street when they got the right away. "May we do Denny's afterwards, I'm getting hungry." Seth said as I smirked.
"Absolutely." Dean said smiling as he walked with Seth up the slight hill and crossed another street to get into the parking lot of the mall where they had walked through the parking lot to the nearest entrance to the mall wanting to get out of the cold. "Where are you going first?" Dean asked curiously as he looked at the madness of people in the mall, he was even crazier than Target if that was even possible.
"Old Navy, then Sears, then Hot Topic then…" Seth ranted on as Dean just nodded as he walked beside Seth who began to walker faster, it seemed like the more warm they got the faster Seth walked, Seth was on a mission. Dean tried to stay close so that he wouldn't lose Seth in the crowd that was in the mall. Dean usually strayed away occasionally when they got into a specific store to look at shirts or other articles of clothing or other things nearby so he wouldn't be too far. "You find anything you like?" Seth asked.
"Nah, I'm just looking." Dean said with a shrug.
"You've been saying that all night Dean, now is the time to buy this stuff because it's all on sale for a great price." Seth said as Dean let out a sigh as he picked up a couple of shirts and pants that he went to try on when Seth had some in stow too. "Dean, I got some more for you to try on that I liked and would love to see you wear." Seth said outside of Dean's dressing room and Dean opened the door slightly as Seth handed him a bigger pile than what Dean had entered the dressing room. Dean let out a soft growl as he tried on more and more clothes forming two different piles of clothes that fit and he liked and clothes that fit and wasn't sure on but knew Seth liked and a pile that he just didn't like regardless what Seth liked. "Dean, come on. We still have a few other stores to hit." Seth said lightly knocking on the door and Dean opened the door showing Seth three different piles as Seth picked up the two piles putting them in the second basket he had filled already. "Let's go, we are running behind." Seth said as he almost jogged to the front, Dean strolled behind him not knowing why Seth was hurrying. Dean stepped behind Seth resting his hands on Seth's hips as Seth paid for the clothes. "You're buying the Christmas tree tomorrow." Seth said sternly as he looked over his shoulder at Dean.
"Tomorrow? We are going to buy it tomorrow?" Dean asked.
"Yes. We need to buy it and put it up sometime." Seth said as Dean didn't argue it much as Seth picked up the couple of bags handing it to Dean to carry as Dean gladly did so as he followed Seth to the other stores that he wanted to hit. By the time they had hit every store in the mall, both men had at least five bags in each hand before they headed back to the car that was parked farther away than they imagined.
"Breakfast?" Dean asked as he slammed the trunk shut nodding to the Denny's that was right in front of them.
"Please, I'm starving." Seth said as Dean smiled kissing Seth gently before leading his boyfriend into the restaurant where they ate a quick breakfast before heading home where Dean carried in the heavy things as Seth took care of the bags.
"I'm going back to bed." Dean said as he set the television down in the living room to take care of later.
"But-" Seth began as Dean stopped turning to look at Seth, "Never mind, we'll do this later." Seth said smiling as he followed Dean to the bedroom. Dean quickly stripped down to his boxers flopping onto the bed on top of the covers looking at Seth who sheepishly stripped down climbing into the bed beside Dean. Dean scooted closer wrapping his arms around Seth pulling Seth closer to his body. "You hate me, don't you? You didn't have fun." Seth said with a pout as he was glancing up at Dean.
"I don't hate you Seth, I love you. I had fun today seeing you have so much fun." Dean said.
"Are you sure?" Seth asked biting at his bottom lip as he stared up at Dean with his big brown eyes as Dean smiled and nodded.
"Absolutely sexy." Dean said leaning in kissing Seth gently, "I love you." Dean said as he pushed his fingers through Seth's hair. "Tomorrow we'll go pick out our tree."
"You mean today?" Seth asked with a chuckle.
"Later today, tomorrow, whatever you want to say." Dean said with a small chuckle, "Let's get some actual sleep shall we?" Dean asked.
