Title: Christmas Compromises, part 1
Series: Christmas Compromises
Author: Moonbrightnites
Prompt: Thankful
Notes: This is a series which will include all of the prompts (I hope!)
It takes Justin forty minutes to wrestle the Christmas tree into their living room, settle the trunk into the base, and kick it into a more-or-less vertical position. By the time he finishes his pale skin is marred by a half-dozen bright red scratches and his nose runs from an unsurprising allergy to pine.
“I don’t care,” he snaps at Brian before his long-time partner can say anything sarcastic. “Fifteen years we’ve been together – it’s time we had our own tree.”
Brian ponders several caustic responses before changing his mind. “Thank you,” he replies sincerely, leaning in for a kiss.
