"Tony"

Tony sidled up to him afterwards.

"Did you enjoy the meal?"

"Yes, I did," Phil said.

"I guess we should be happy that you're spending Christmas with us," Tony muttered.

"My apologies again for the deception." Tony snorted. "It was necessary."

"Only while Fury was director," he snapped. "Not anymore."

Phil pursed his lips. "I'd better go," he said. "Thank you for lunch."

"Wait." Tony walked forwards, haltingly, until he was in front of Phil. Then he cupped his cheeks, leaned in, and kissed him. Phil reciprocated gently, and they rested their foreheads together.

"Merry Christmas, Tony."

"Merry Christmas, Phil."


Merry Christmas, everyone! I hope you enjoyed the stories.

Now. Please vote for which chapter you want to be expanded for New Year's Eve. I know some people have been voting already, but now that the story's complete, you can choose from all of them. I'd stick to a top five or ten, at the most, to make tallying a bit easier. I promise, the 'expansion pack' will be longer than 100 words.

For those reading this on ffnet, the Smut Police are onto me, so I can't post anything explicit. It will, however, be on AO3 as well, and the link to my AO3 profile is on my ffnet profile.

Please review, m'dears!
