The house was quiet, still. It wasn't normal. Remus opened his eyes slowly to assess the bedroom, hoping to every god he knew, that his lover was still asleep. The bed was empty. Remus tried really hard to think good thoughts, really he did. It was just a shame that his lover was the one person that managed to truly raise his blood pressure in every way.

Remus slowly and softly sat up, preparing to go downstairs and find his wayward lover when the door to the bedroom opened. Remus tensed in anticipation so therefore was blindsided when he saw the person entering, or better yet, what he was carrying.

"Aw Remus you were meant to still be asleep. I was going to wake you with a kiss and the smell of delicious food." Sirius walked towards the bed and sat down.

Remus couldn't speak. Sirius was holding a tray of delicious smelling pancakes with syrup, strawberries and whipped cream, a large mocha coffee, a glass of orange juice and a bowl of chocolates from Darrell Lee.

"Remus?" Sirius pulled him out of his thoughts.

Remus could honestly say that he was in awe of his lover. He wasn't sure what to say or how to express exactly what he was feeling though he knew he must say something soon; Sirius was starting to look like a kicked puppy.

"Sirius, I can't... I... wow."

Sirius' smile was worth the lack of true words coming out of Remus' mouth.

"You like it then? I wanted our first Christmas living together to be special."

Remus was startled to realise he completely forgot about it being Christmas. He knew his mouth was unattractively hanging open but he found himself unable to close it. Sirius just smiled at him and placed the tray on the bedside table. He leaned over to his lover and placed a kiss onto his cheek and then turned his head slightly until his mouth was by Remus' ear. Remus couldn't prevent the pleasant shiver from running up his spine.

"We are going to eat this breakfast, open our presents that are awaiting us under the tree. Then we will laze around watching cheesy Christmas movies, lying on the couch like a couple of cats. When the sun sets we will watch it while eating a deliciously unhealthy dinner and drinking expensive red wine. Once it is dark and we are relaxed and happy we will come upstairs and I will show you exactly how Christmas should end."

Remus had closed his eyes in pure bliss at his lover's words. One thing stuck out to him though.

"C-cats Sirius? I thought you didn't like cats?" Remus berated himself for stuttering especially after seeing Sirius' smirk.

"I can make an exception, especially for you."

With those words, Sirius placed his lips onto Remus' softly. It wasn't the first time they shared a kiss and it would most definitely not be the last but something about this kiss would stick out to Remus when he looked back. It may have been the whole morning, or maybe the fact that he saw flashes of lights all colours of the rainbow. Whatever it was, their first Christmas together would be a day to remember, forever.
