"Wake up."

Nick stirred, the intruding voice interrupting his much loved sleep.

"Nick, get up."

He rolled over, burying his face in his pillow and turning his back on his roommate and his annoying voice.

Jeff stood over Nick and huffed. "Fine."

He reached down and grabbed a handful of the blanket, pulling it right off the bed and his best friend.

Nick gasped at the sudden cold that engulfed him. He shot up in bed. "Jeff!"

"Merry Christmas!" A grin covered the blond's face, and he threw the blanket back towards a shivering Nick.

"Oh, now I can have it back?"

"Yep," Jeff nodded and walked to the window of the room, pulling open the slightly dusty curtains. "Now come here so you can see your present."

Nick grumbled under his breath, wrapping the blanket around his shoulders and pulling himself up off the mattress. He made his way to the window and stood beside Jeff, looking outside.

His eyes widened. "Snow!"

The usually barren courtyard of Dalton Academy was now covered in a thick layer of blinding white.

Jeff nodded, a grin on his own face as he slung his arm around Nick's shoulders.

"Merry Christmas, Nicky."

Nick looked sideways at Jeff, a sceptical look upon his face. "You forgot to get me something, didn't you?"

"Shh," Jeff shook his head slightly, placing a finger over his lips, "let's not ruin the moment."

Nick rolled his eyes.

"Now, let's try that again. Merry Christmas, Nicky."

Nick smiled. "Merry Christmas to you, Jeffy."
