Author's Notes: This takes place in the future, let's say around five years maybe, so the characters are older. Also, Dasari and Booker are the last names a friend and I use for Noah and Cody respectively.

Christmastime had once again come to Canada. Store windows had been decorated, the mad rush of Christmas shopping was in full swing, and the Booker-Dasari apartment was fully decorated for the holiday season…well almost fully. See our favorite dorks, who were now university students, as they tried to make it on their own. But of course not without a few, slight problems. Well more like one large problem, a common one that could be named in just three words: Christmas tree lights.

A pair of legs stuck out from under the tree, a few muffled curses and mumbled complaints could be heard as well. Noah sat on one of the chairs not too far away, reading as usual. He looked up from his book and rolled his eyes before returning to the page "You know we could just get new lights…" he said "These are pretty old after all. Plus it probably doesn't help that we bought them used."

"No…" Cody started, still not moving from his place "I'm going to figure this out. I've changed the burnt out bulbs, I've checked the chord, this isn't making any sense!" He gave an exasperated sigh, knowing full well that he was going no where fast.

The lazy ass sighed as he put down his book and got up from the chair. He knelt down next to his boyfriend's legs. Not too long afterwards, Cody finally scooted his way out, his face showing just how ticked off he really was.

Noah smirked at this "Giving up?" Cody shot him an annoyed glace and he tried to stifle his laughter "You did your best…I guess."

"I'd like to see you try."

"I would, but I know it would be useless. So why waste my time?"

Cody rolled his eyes and turned to face Noah. "I shouldn't let this get to me so much should I?"

Noah shrugged. "Probably not, it does seem frustrating though." He wrapped his arm around Cody's shoulders.

Cody turned his head to look him in the eyes, soon finding that they're faces were only inches apart. Instantly all traces of his aggravation seemed to disappear, Noah just seemed to have that effect on him. Maybe that's why they'd lasted so long, they balanced each other out. They moved closer together, keeping their eyes on each other until their lips met in a long, soft kiss.

Suddenly the lights on the tree flickered before lighting up fully and staying on. Noah and Cody parted and looked up at the tree. Noah smirked at Cody. "Merry Christmas, Cody."

Cody smiled back. "Merry Christmas, Noah." He placed his head on the tanner man's shoulder, and closed his eyes. Almost instantly they reopened though, wide with shock "Wait…the lights flickered on. That's not safe is it?"

Noah's eyes opened just as wide, he sighed and got up. "Alright, you take these lights off and I'll go buy new ones."

Merry Christmas, Happy Yule, Happy Eid, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanza or whatever the hell you celebrate!
