[I don't own Teen Titans or any characters mentioned in this story besides Billy Numerous' family]
Elliot walked into the living room to find a strange and somewhat amusing sight.
William was struggling with three small children in his arms, trying his hardest to keep them away from the present that were placed under the unlit tree. It seemed like every time one of the children were out of reach of the presents, another took its place. Finally after a few minutes of this, Elliot took pity on the blonde and grabbed one of the children that was hanging by her legs from Billy's shoulders like monkey bars.
"Hey! Hey...uhm...look Elliot I...I'm really, really sorry I uh...I just-" Billy stammered quickly as Elliot interrupted him by wrapping his smaller arms around Billy's neck, hugging him tightly and ignoring the faint blush on Billy's cheeks as he wrapped his arms around his waist.
"It's...It's okay, really. You're still here with me, that's all that really matters." Said Kyd with a small shy smile that made the southerners heart melt as he pulled away.
"Speaking of here! Guess who's not here...and guess what he left behind!" Billy said excitedly as he held up Connor's truck keys to Kyd's surprised face.
"Billy…" Kyd said warningly.
"Oh come on! This is gonna be the one day we can use the truck 'cause Connor is gone to work with Dad and there's this really nice new food place that just opened up in town and-" Billy whined childishly to which Kyd giggled before finally giving in.
"Alright, alright. It's not like I was going anywhere else anyway. Someone has to make sure you don't try shoplifting while you're in town." Kyd said, giving himself an excuse to actually have some fun for once.
"Hurry up and go change, it's a real nice place and I don't wanna look a fool just 'cause we forgot to wear something nice." Billy said, rushing Kyd up the stairs.
Before Kyd could interrupt him to tell him he didn't really bring anything nice, he was already pushed into the room he was previously in and rolled his eyes before shaking his head. He started rummaging through his cluttered black suitcase, hoping he had something that wasn't too dirty or rugged looking in it. Just as he was about to give up though, a loud knock came on the door. Kyd opened it to find someone who indeed resembled Billy, but definitely wasn't Billy.
A girl who looked just below his age bustled past Kyd and made her way into the room, looking cross with the pale boy despite his not having even met her yet. The girl had dirty blonde hair like Billy's except hers was much longer and put into a braid that went down to her lower back. She had on shades like Billy's, but instead of the normal farm attire everyone here seemed to wear she wore something much more city-like. Purple skinny jeans and a pink T-shirt paired with muddy sneakers and a face covered in designer-looking make up.
"What was that numskull thinking?! Of course you don't have any good clothes, you packed for a run down Alabama farm, not a date night on the town! Ugh that stupid baboon doesn't know logic when it hits him in that redneck face of his! I swear-!" The girl yammered on as she paced back and forth in the room, waving her hands around to show how infuriated she was.
"Oh! I'm sorry, I haven't even introduced myself. How rude of me really...I'm Sabrina. I'm William's cousin, I just came here a few days ago for Christmas all the way from Metropolis. I heard all about the big fiasco going on with you two and I'm here to help! Tis I, here to save the gays! I'm fully aware of your...fashion lack. Lucky for you, I always pack plenty of clothes to try and make Will wear so he'd look a little less terrible. All we have to do is tighten them to fit you! Now come on, come on!" The still bustling girl yammered quickly, already ushering him to the pink leather suitcase she had set on the bed.
By the time they were done, Kyd felt sick to death of clothes. But still, he thought he did look nice, at least he was good enough to finally get out of the room with the fashion crazy girl. He wore a purple suit vest with a nice black buttoned undershirt that he'd rolled up to his his wrists. He wore nice black dress pants and a white tie that he'd learned to despise. He actually felt...really pretty. It felt nice to dress up, though there was no way he was changing out of his sneakers.
Kyd walked down the stairs, struggling not to stare at Billy who had also changed clothes. Billy was wearing a black tux with a red tie and still had his shades and muddy boots on.
"You...You look beautiful El…" Billy said, trying not to gasp. While Billy struggled with the fight against gathering air in his lungs, Kyd was struggling with the fight to make his legs quit wobbling. He felt even more nervous than before since he found out that Billy genuinely liked him. Billy and Kyd walked to the broken down pickup truck, both lost in their own thoughts of anxiousness and fear.
