Day 4 Prompt: Books.

It was an especially boring day in the Son household. Zarbon had found himself bored out of his mind on the couch in the living room while Raditz was asked to help get out decorations for this Christmas celebration that everyone seemed to be obsessed with. He didn't understand the fascination behind worshipping a chubby human who dressed in red and handed out free toys to children. He sounded more like a freak child-lover than a deity.

"We don't worship Santa Claus, Zarbon. We celebrate the tradition that he brings!" Goku had laughed at him when he said that.

He came out of his thoughts when Raditz came down the stairs and into the living room where he was. He was holding a load of books in his arms and his nose was red from being in the cold of the attic. "What on Earth are you doing with all of those?" Zarbon asked him, his thin eyebrow lifted up in curiosity.

"They're Christmas books. I guess Kakarot likes to read them to his brats every year." Raditz shrugged and set the books on the coffee table in front of his lover.

Zarbon leaned forward and looked at the book on the top of the pile that was named "The Night Before Christmas." He opened it up and flipped through the first few pages, seeing the classically drawn pictures and reading some of the rhymes that told the story. The large Saiyan sat next to him with his own book in his hand titled "The Christmas Carol," his onyx eyes scanning the back of it where the summary was.

"I still don't understand the fascination behind this Christmas stuff…" Zarbon scrunched his nose a little. Raditz gave a grunt in a response.

And yet, they still sat beside one another on the comfortably couch, their noses stuck in the books that told the different tales of Christmas.


TBC.
