A/N: So, here's another one! This one is one of my favorites I've written! Enjoy!
I really can't stay, but baby it's cold outside
"Come on, where are you going?" Ryan asked Kelsi as she started to bundle up.
"Home, Ry," She grinned as she slipped her gloves on.
"Now?" He pouted.
"My parents at least want me to come home at night," She smirked.
"We're in college, you're telling me you have a curfew over Christmas break?" Ryan asked as he stood from his spot on the floor.
"No, but mom and I have a lot to do tomorrow. My nephews are coming over to set up my mom's little Christmas village, and if I know my mother she's going to want to clean everything before they come over," Kelsi told him.
"But…it's cold," Ryan argued pathetically.
She rolled her eyes, "It's not that cold."
"Why would you want to venture into the cold when you could just stay here and be warm with me?" He asked as he wiggled his eyebrows up and down.
She laughed and shook her head, "Ryan, just because you invent reasons for me to stay doesn't mean they're good ones."
"Oh, come on," He pleaded. "I'll put in 'Holiday Inn' for us to watch. You know you love that."
She considered it for a moment, "I do love Bing and Fred."
"Obviously you love them more than you love me," He said with a playful pout.
"Aw, honey," Kelsi smiled as she reached up and patted his cheek. "I'll always love you almost as much."
He laughed and smiled at her, "You know your sense of humor has gotten a lot meaner since high school."
She chuckled and wrapped her arms around his neck, "I learned from the best."
"Me?" He asked as he wrapped his arms around her waist.
"No, Sharpay," She smirked.
"You're just full of jokes tonight, aren't you?"
"What can I say? It's Christmas," She said as she placed a quick kiss on his lips. "And now I really have to go."
She leaned back and tried to pull away, but Ryan kept his arms around her waist and held her steady. She laughed at him and whined playfully, "Ryan! Let me go!"
"Nope. You're gonna have to stay."
She sighed, "Okay, if I agree to stay for another hour will you let me go?"
He looked at her thoughtfully, "Only an hour? How about two?"
She quirked an eyebrow at him, "An hour and a half."
"Deal," Ryan smiled before he leaned forward and placed a kiss on Kelsi's temple. He moved to let go of her but she snaked her arms back around his neck and pulled him down for a real kiss. He smiled against her lips and deepened the kiss.
"Oh. My. God."
Came a high pitched voice from behind them. They paused and pulled apart to glance at the source of the voice.
Ryan sighed, "You couldn't just pretend you didn't see us and walk away, could you Shar?"
She rolled her eyes and scoffed, "You're the ones who decided to start making out in front of the front door."
Kelsi laughed softly and rested her head on Ryan's shoulder.
