AN: Xmas fic :) I did one last year. Or two years ago... Hope this one's good!

Hope you guys enjoy it! All mistakes are mine. Ummm... Can't think of anything else to say, other than I might be a little rusty! Haha! So apologizes about that!

Disclaimer: I do not own Danny Phantom D:

Using his snowboard, Danny went down a large hill while screaming "whoo-hoo!" at the top of his lungs. His ghost powers allowed him to adjust the speed he went down the hill and his ice powers controlled the amount of loops he could make throughout his path to get the full enjoyment out of Wisconsin snow. Once he reached the bottom of the last loop, he slid the board to a stop and fell back onto his butt to take a breather. Breathing heavily, he had a silly grin on his face as he looked up into the gray skies that had snow flakes falling down.

He had been out for hours and it was time to go back into the mansion. Getting back onto his feet, he used his ghost powers to push him towards the mansion, excitement bubbling in him at the thought of having some nice hot cocoa to warm up while snuggling in front of the fire next to his lover. A small amount of drool made its way past his lips as he thought of his perfectly fit lover wearing nothing but boxers to snuggle in bed. Aside from having a small break from college due to the winter break, being with Vlad in a nice, cozy and warm bed was the best part about winter.

The mansion came into sight. Immediately, he ran into the huge double doors and discarded his clothes and board as soon as he closed the door. Being able to phase was an awesome power. An extra pair of sweatpants were hung by the door, kept warm by the billionaire himself. Feeling loved, Danny grabbed them and put them on before walking into the kitchen. As he made himself some hot cocoa, he pulled out another pot and made Vlad tea. Smiling when they were both done, he made his way into the living room, exactly where he knew the man would be. The fire was roaring in the fireplace, allowing enough light for Vlad to read his book he was holding.

Sensing the young half ghost, Vlad Masters looked up and felt his heart flutter at the sight of Danny walking towards him with two steaming cups in his hands. It shouldn't, really, but sometimes it still shocked him to have someone be thoughtful of him. Danny was truly special. His Little Badger always made sure he had what he needed before getting something for himself. The twenty two year old sat down next to him on the couch and handed him his drink. Vlad immediately noticed Danny's drink was a sweet one. Well, some things didn't surprise him.

"Did you have fun outside?" Vlad asked conversationally as he took a sip of his warm tea.

Danny's cheeks were still flushed from the icy winds. Giving the man a warm smile, he answered, "Yup! Way cool if you have ghost powers to liven things up, too." Grinning cockily, he took a sip of his drink and made himself cozy by his lover's side.

Humming in response, Vlad put his drink aside and balanced holding his book with one hand to read so he could wrap his arm around Danny and hold him close. "At least I cannot say you aren't practicing your powers. Although your sense of use isn't very practical."

"Pft. Says you."

Smirking at Danny's antics, he let out a chuckle. "Yes. Says me."

There were a few minutes of comfortable silence. The room was so warm and cozy from the flames coming out of the fire, illuminating the room, that Danny began to fall asleep. As his eyes slowly drooped, he felt the cup of hot cocoa being pulled out of his slacking grip. Not paying mind to it, he closed his eyes and placed his head against a strong chest. His eyes had been closed for a few minutes before a loud buzzing noise startled him awake.

With a scowl, Vlad reached into his pockets and pulled out his cellphone. Of course someone would unexpectedly message him during the holidays and disrupt his Little Badger's attempt at sleep. For a moment, he contemplated throwing his phone into the fire and then realized that would just encourage Danny to break his technology whenever he became frustrated with it. With a light sigh, he opened the message. As his eyes scanned the words in front of him, his lips thinned into a frown; something Danny noticed immediately.

"Vlad? What is it?" The concern was evident in his voice.

"Hmm? Oh, my apologizes my dear boy, but it appears I have been called over to travel to Hong Kong this week."

"What?" Danny felt his heart break into two. "But … Christmas is in three days..." Vlad hit reply on his phone to confirm he would attend to the meeting. When the young half ghost didn't receive a reply, his heart sunk. "Vlad? Can... can you make it in time for Christmas?"

Vlad's reply was instant, which only caused the young man to feel even worse. "No." After booking his flight with his private jet plane pilot, the billionaire looked at his lover. Seeing the crushed look on his face made him feel guilty. Smiling apologetically, he raised his hand to run through the dark locks. "My Little Badger, don't be that way. I'll be back the following day and we can celebrate then."

"But... Fruitloop, this was supposed to be our first Christmas together."

And that's what made this even worse for Danny. He and Vlad had started their relationship the previous summer, on a warm night when they happened to bump into each other at a park. The young halfa had been so shocked at seeing the man, he invited him over to dinner at a local restaurant. Vlad was surprised, and suspicious, but accepted. It was the best date of the half ghost's life; both of theirs. Their relationship spurred from there. Since their relationship had still been, well, new, they celebrated the holidays separately. The young halfa had spent Christmas with his family and New year's with his friends.

This year was supposed to be different. This year, they would celebrate the holidays together since Danny moved in about a month ago. He made the arrangements; apologizing profusely to his parents and telling his friends (nicely) to get over it. Danny had been looking forward to the holiday break since the beginning of the year. To know Vlad was just going to leave him...

Seeing the look of distraught on Danny's face, the older man leaned over and kissed him. "It's not too late Little Badger. I'm sure your parents or friends won't mind if you stay with them this Christmas." When that didn't seem to cheer Danny up, Vlad sighed. "Daniel, really. It's only for this year. I promise next year we'll spend Christmas together." He offered the young halfa a smile, which Danny weakly returned.

Getting up from the couch, Vlad dropped his book and scooped the young man into his arms, ignoring the startled yelp. Smiling, he kissed the tip of the teen's nose, noticing it was still cold. "How about I make it up to you right now with a nice, hot steaming bath?" he lowered his voice to a low purr, "And then I'll finish warming you up in bed."

Danny shivered at the words as the man's tongue traveled down his neck. A bite to his shoulder made him gasp in pleasure and he melted in his lover's arm. As he allowed Vlad to carry him into the master bedroom, he hid the frown on his face by burying it in the pale shoulder.

Maybe it shouldn't be a big deal...

It was just Christmas, after all...

AN: TBC :D Hope you guys enjoyed!
