Kurt and Blaine needed a tree. They had everything else sorted for Christmas, they just needed a tree. There was a little place down the road from them where they had gone to every year, and this year was no different.

They pulled into the car park, their tyres crunching against the gravel below them, and stepped out of the car.

This year they had decided to use Kurt's car; in the past it had always been Blaine's car, but this year they were hoping for a much bigger tree than the year before, and it simply wouldn't have been able to fit on top of Blaine's car, so for the first year ever they were using Kurt's car.

The two of them linked arms once they were out into the open and began to look around the trees. All around them they could see families, and it warmed Kurt's heart, knowing that in just a short space of time, they were going to be like that.

"What do you think about this one?"

Blaine pointed to a large tree and Kurt bent down to sniff it. His nose scrunched up at

the scent and he shook his head, "No-that one smells a little funny, don't you think?"

Blaine hadn't had a chance to smell the tree; he had just liked the look of it, so he too bent down to sniff the pines. The minute he did so he regretted even offering it as a choice.

"Oh! No! Yeah no we can't have that in our house! What about that one?"
"I don't know…it seems a little small doesn't it?"

It did seem a little small.

They carried on browsing the different trees and after about an hour of looking, Baby it's Cold Outside came began to play on the speakers.

"Can you remember this?"
"Our first Christmas duet."

"First of many."

"Hey Kurt."
"Yeah?"

Blaine shoved his hands in his pockets and looked up at Kurt, "I love you."

"I know. I love you too sweetie."

Blaine pulled out some mistletoe he had been concealing in his back pocket and held it high above the two of them. Kurt smiled, fondly.

"May have a kiss, Mr Anderson-Hummel?"

"Why indeed you may, Mr Anderson-Hummel."

He leaned forward and their lips met, the spark that was there at their first kiss, still as present as it had been that first day they'd kissed.

"I'm lucky to have found you, Blaine."
"And I'm lucky to have found you Kurt."

Suddenly a tree caught their eye. It wasn't as tall as some of the others they had seen, but it was a full tree; the branches were so close together that it looked like the largest one there.

"What about this one?"

"I think it's perfect."
