Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!

It’s near Christmas time here. All parts of Iwatodai and Port Island are festively decorated from top to bottom. The spirit and aura of the love and care are definitely in the air. Friends and families spend these times together, outside and inside of their homes. And not to a surprise, there are couples everywhere, being adorable and lovey-dovey together~

Mellow birdie cheeps sounded the morning. Sunlight slipped through the slits of the blinds of a single window. Resting right under the rays of warm light was a fluffy and cozy looking bed with the whitest sheets and clusters of plushies. Adding to the mass that laid on top of the bed were two figures, an adorable Minato and a sweet Ryoji.

“Ughh, owwww, my back” Ryoji, wearing only pants groans as he begins to wake up, wiggling out to sooth his discomfort.

Minato, wearing only Ryoji’s button-up shirt lays his head on Ryoji’s bare chest, all snuggled up against Ryoji’s body reacted to Ryoji’s shifting. Minato lets out a small yawn and opens his eyes. He lifts his head and pushes his body up a tad to level his lips right where Ryoji’s lips were. And chuu~ Minato planted a small peck upon Ryoji’s lips and says “Good morning, love~” And with that Minato lowers himself back in his previous position to sneep some more.

“Hey hey, don’t you plan on going back to sleep. I’m in distress because of you!”

While finally being able to pull out one of those plushies that was straining his back, he props it right in front of Minato’s face.

“One of your precious Jack Frost plushies is attacking me!”

Opening his eyes again, Minato replied “Well, it’s not my fault you decided to win me over with 13 Jack Frost plushies.”

“WELL, I didn’t expect you to put them ALL ON THE BED!”

“But sweetie, where else would they sleep?”

“Oh, you smart mouthed, ill-mannered boy~”

Ryoji shifts completely, flipping his body to throw Minato’s back to the bed. Ryoji pins Minato’s body down from any movement right against the soft, white bed. Ryoji leans down to passionately lock lips with his lover. Wet noises escape as they intertwine their tongues and try to keep the saliva from dripping out of their mouths.

And after a good minute of making out, Minato pushes Ryoji off of him, separating their lips.

Ryoji then was the first to speak. “Well, I hope you learned your lesson.”

Minato smirks and pulls Ryoji’s face down just inches away from his. “I’ll never learn my lesson. I think you’ll have to keep punishing me until I can’t take it anymore, Sir.” As he says that, Minato’s face reddens just a little, showing a teasing desire in his eyes. Ryoji’s body suddenly heats up, heart rate rising and an instantaneous throbbing in his pants. He stares down at Minato with a deep hunger and a low growl escapes his lips, like a predator that hasn’t eaten in days at a trembling, captured prey.

Right before Ryoji can go down on his sexy, delectable prey, he unwillingly stops himself.

“Wait wait wait! We’re supposed to go on a day date today, on Christmas Eve! I know, I know that it’s CRAZY STUPID of me to stop here after we both would definitely LOVE to do some loving RIGHT NOW, but you know that we won’t go out after if we did. We promised to go out and enjoy the festivities. It’s as hard for me as it is for you, but I promise we will definitely make up for lost time tonight.”

Minato lifts himself up and bites softly on Ryoji’s neck and whispers seductively “Fine, but you better be prepared for tonight.”

Ryoji’s mind totally blanks and steams with numerous explicit and erotic thoughts. But he quickly shakes those images and thoughts away before his member throbs even more.

Taking one deep breath, Ryoji pushes all the plushies and the blanket off of him to get up from the bed. He turns to Minato and holds a hand out towards him.

“Shall we begin our date day, my cute prince?”

Minato sits up on the bed and extends his hand out to place it right on top of Ryoji’s inviting, open hand.

Now midday, Ryoji and Minato walk hand-in-hand around Paulownia Mall. The shops are all themed and decorated so cutely. Bright hues of red, green, white, and pastel colors fill the townscape just about completely. The atmosphere is filled with happiness and joy, families and couples all having a fun time.

Since the two just arrived at Paulownia Mall and skipped out on breakfast, they needed to have lunch. So to start off their little date, they walk over to the Chagall Café to get a small meal. Ryoji orders a sandwich and a hot cup of coffee. Minato orders eight different types of sandwiches, three slices of cake, two cupcakes, four cookies, and a hot vanilla latte. The amount of food that Minato ate use to surprise Ryoji, but now he just sees it as an opportunity to watch his cute prince eat so happily.

Chagall Café Convo

Ryoji: Hey, remember when we use to work here together. I know I’ve said this a lot, but you really did look so sexy and cute in that uniform.

Minato: Oh, thank you. Same for you, as you did look very handsome. Also if we’re on the topic of working here, I’ll have to remind you that you were indeed a hard employee to work with, just so you know.

Ryoji: What do you mean? I was and still am a very hard worker. I did my job.

Minato: If by job you mean to distract and get intimate with me at work, then yes, you did your job perfectly so. Dragging me into naughty situations and not letting me do my job.

Ryoji: Wowwie, hold on! I’d admit that I may or may not have shown my desire for you physically and mentally at work. However, it wasn’t ALWAYS me that wanted to have “fun” on the clock.

Minato: It’s your entire fault, you know. Your consistence affection, desire, and touch must have rubbed off on me. I never… had all of this desire until you.

Ryoji: Awwww, sweetie! You complete me, you’re so adorably cute~

Doting as Minato kept eating, Ryoji reaches out to wipe some cream off of Minato’s cheek with his finger. Bringing his finger back to himself, he opens his mouth to lick the cream. Before he could, Minato grabs Ryoji’s hand. On the finger that held the cream, Minato licks and sucks on it. In Ryoji’s eyes, he does it so arousingly, feeling the warmth and wetness of his tongue running over and under his finger. Then with a last lick, Minato lets go of Ryoji’s hand.

Minato: Remember, I don’t like sharing my food with anyone…unless you ask nicely.

And so, they finish their reminiscing session and their lunch. It was about 3 in the afternoon now. They step out of the café and walk side-by-side for a bit. But of course, their walk is cut extremely short when Minato eyes the arcade. Ryoji definitely anticipates this to happen and is quickly dragged by the arm towards the arcade center.

Game Panic Convo

Minato: Ryoji! Ryoji! Look! They have more Jack Frost plushies!

Ryoji: But you have a billion Jack Frost plushies already.

Minato: You don’t understand! It’s a CHRISTMAS EDITION JACK FROST! It’s so cute! I must have one… or two… or more!

Ryoji: And where do you suppose you’ll put these new plushies? Not on the bed, right?

Minato: But… but… they need me! I’m here to save them from the cold loneliness of the crane machine! Hmmph, I don’t need your permission, they’re precious to me, so I’m going to save them without your help!

-After a countless number of tries and hours of varying negative emotions, Minato still hasn’t lost faith in trying to get at least one. Thank goodness Minato has an exclusive arcade membership that he pays monthly in exchange for unlimited crane plays. Definitely a money saver for Minato’s terrible crane machine luck and unwavering determination.-

Ryoji: You know, you really do have an unbreakable willpower when it comes to these crane games.

Minato: …

Ryoji: Are you upset that I’m not helping you?

Minato: …No. I can do this by myself. I don’t need you to win all my Jack Frosts for me…

Ryoji: Are you sure? You seem a bit pouty, my love. Would you like me to help?

Minato: No…maybe…if you want to, I wouldn’t mind…really, but I’d really appreciate if you did.

Ryoji: Hehehe, you really are adorable. However, this is on the condition that they WILL NOT be joining us on the bed. There isn’t any more room. Okay?

Minato: …Fine.

Taking a hold of Minato’s membership card with rolled up sleeves, Ryoji begins to work his crane machine magic. Ryoji’s actually kind of bad at this too, but not as bad as Minato. After about 30 minutes or so, Ryoji ended up capturing two Christmas Jack Frosts for Minato. Minato definitely wanted more, but Ryoji was uncompromising in that disagreement. Minato pouted and complained for a bit, but eventually accepted just the two plushies. Still a little unwilling to leave the arcade, Minato realizes that he should probably spend this day with Ryoji more as a couple. Minato convinces himself that he can always come back another day to get more and two right now is good enough. And with that, they both decide to leave the arcade, one Christmas Jack Frost plushie under Minato’s arm and one under Ryoji’s arm, both held in their outer arm so they could walk side-by-side and hand-in-hand together.

The sun has been long gone for a while and it’s the moon that sits out, up in the sky now. It’s roughly seven in the evening and the lovely couple just decided to stroll around together after their intense crane machine complications.

Without realizing it yet, they actually silently strolled away from all the festivities of Paulownia Mall towards the Moonlight Bridge.

The bridge seemed so dead, lacking much of any signs for life compared to the activities and crowds at the mall. There were evenly-spaced dim light posts running alongside the bridge’s pathway. But it didn’t matter that they were so dim because the moon this night was full and bright. It elegantly lit the bridge, shining enough light to see just fine in front of them as they walked.

Reaching the middle of the bridge, in unison, they both stopped and turned towards the railing to look out at the view and the glowing full moon. They just stood there mesmerized and speechless, like it was the moon itself that had stolen their gaze and voice.

Moments later, Ryoji utters the word “Beautiful” and turns his head towards Minato. Minato takes a breath, turns his face towards Ryoji and replies with “Yeah”. They both look into each other’s eyes and let out matching sincere, heartfelt smiles.

“Alright, come on, let’s get out of this chilly weather and warm ourselves up at home.” Ryoji says, as he begins to continue walking slowly, tugging Minato along.

To be Continued.
