Day 7, and we're back to Team CFVY. I seriously can't get enough of these guys, even though they still have yet to have some good ole development in canon. Ah well. Let's hope to see more once this hiatus ends.

"Mistletoe!"

Fox only had a brief moment to process Coco's voice before his girlfriend grabbed him and pulled him into a heated kiss. He made a muffled noise of surprise before closing his eyes and returning it to the best of his ability before Coco pulled away just as suddenly. He heard a few whistles and some voices going "Whoo!" as people walked by.

He shook his head to clear it, an accusing smile coming to his face. "I'm pretty sure you're lying half the time when you do that. No school has mistletoe in every hallway."

"How would you know?" Coco asked, sticking out her tongue while poking the side of his neck. "People at the other schools might not have told you where it all was."

"Common sense," Fox replied as they started walking again. "No teacher wants hallways full of students making out. Most people our age will take any excuse to do so." He cleared his throat significantly, raising an eyebrow.

"It's the holiday spirit, and I don't hear you complaining." Coco elbowed him as they neared Port's classroom. "Well, I'm off to Oobleck's lecture. Later, Foxy." She patted his butt as she walked away, snickering at the embarrassed sputtering noise he made.

"Coco! You said you'd stop doing that!" Fox's only response was the click of his girlfriend's retreating heels. He let out a sigh, putting a hand over his red face as he heard Yatsuhashi's heavy footsteps behind him.

"PDA issues?" the samurai asked, unable to hide the amusement in his voice.

"I guess I'm just too gorgeous to resist, or something," Fox muttered dryly.

Yatsuhashi let out a laugh as he followed his teammate into the classroom.

After classes, Fox was walking outside when he was suddenly hugged from behind and felt a pair of familiar lips on the back of his neck. He yelped in surprise before shooting a withering glare over his shoulder in Coco's direction. "Sometimes I wonder if you enjoy startling me more than you enjoy kissing me."

Coco snickered, touching an apologetic peck to his cheek. "Well, your reactions are pretty adorable."

As Coco fell into step beside him, Fox noticed that she was wearing a new perfume. "Is that cinnamon?" he asked, his nose twitching.

"Yep. It was either this or peppermint, and I wasn't up for smelling like toothpaste," Coco replied. After a moment, she pulled Fox close and briefly touched her lips to his. "Mistletoe."

"There isn't even a ceiling above us," Fox said, rolling his eyes as he pulled back.

"Maybe it was floating," Coco said, her face the picture of innocence.

"Uh huh. I'm sure that's the case," Fox drawled, lightly flicking her forehead. "I was going to walk around for another minute or two before going back to the dorm. Care to join me?"

"Sure." Coco moved closer to her boyfriend, hugging his arm. "I like looking at the snow falling." She sighed a little as they continued to walk. "I wish I could describe it. In a way you'd understand, I mean." Back when they first became partners, she had tried describing scenery to Fox, only to discover that he didn't understand concepts like color or light, since he had been born blind.

Fox shook his head. "It's fine. I get my own enjoyment from the weather."

"Yeah? Like what?" Coco tilted her head.

"I like the way the snow feels when I step on it, when there's not slush or ice anyway. The sound of snow falling is nice, when it's quiet enough to hear it. There are usually fewer people out, which is a plus. Probably my favorite thing is how the air feels and smells." Fox paused to deeply inhale. "It's sharp and crisp. It only ever gets like this during the winter months."

Coco sniffed the air experimentally, her nose wrinkling at the stinging sensation the coldness brought. She blinked a few times as the stinging turned to an itch, which eventually turned into a loud sneeze.

Fox snickered. "I guess I'm more used to it than you are." He kissed her cheek, feeling how cold it was as she continued sniffling. "Let's go inside."

Once they were in the dorm room, which was empty of Velvet and Yatsuhashi for the moment, they shed their wet jackets. Coco walked up to Fox and wrapped her arms around his middle, nuzzling her face into the crook of his neck. "Hey."

"Hey," Fox replied, returning the hug and kissing the top of Coco's head. "Are you always this affectionate during winter?"

"Only when I have an adorable Fox to keep me warm," Coco murmured in the sultry voice she always used when she wanted to make her boyfriend blush. She kissed his neck a few times, smirking as she felt the rising temperature of his skin.

"That's what I'm here for." Fox gently rubbed Coco's back, listening to the contented sighs she let out. He started to lead her toward the beds when an idea occurred to him.

He turned suddenly and pressed her against the wall, swallowing her surprised gasp in a passionate kiss. It only took a second for Coco to respond, weaving her fingers through his hair and parting her lips eagerly. Fox's tongue slid against hers, tasting traces of peppermint candy and espresso. He groaned as she tugged at his hair with one hand and stroked the back of his neck with the other.

Every part of Coco's body was focused on the warm press of Fox's body against hers. She was almost unable to keep up with the fervor of his kisses when he pulled back just as quickly as he had started.

She stared up at him, a dazed smile spreading across her face. "There's no mistletoe in the dorm, Foxy," she teased, though her voice was slightly breathless as she tried to regain some control over her heartbeat.

Fox, though also panting, managed a devious grin. "I know," he purred. "I don't need an excuse."

I freaking love writing this ship! I seriously hope that this or one of the other CFVY ships turn out to be canon. It's too freaking perfect. Peace out.
