A Christmas Fluff
by Phoenix-Of-Chaos

Sonic the Hedgehog slumped further back into his seat on the worn couch, as yet again the channel flipped over automatically by slender fingers.

"Boring, boring...!?!!?!... Boring, SICK! Boring... Jeez, satellite TV wasn't what I expected it to be..." he grumbled, trying to suppress the urge to take the remote control out for a walk via the front window.

Lazily he grabbed a few nachos from the party bowl beside him, eating them slowly and thoughtfully while glancing at the clock for the 57th time. 6:20pm. Another huff before kicking back his legs on the coffee table, being careful not to knock the holly-sprigged candle and start a fire like he somehow managed to do last year. December sure was a hectic year; first having to confess his love to his best buddy, then having to run around finding a tree and decorations...

"And on the one night, Christmas Eve no less, he has to be working late."

A cute pout began to spread across his face as he debated whether to run the tracks to Station Square, break into GUN and carry his lover out the front gates, murdering anyone who happened to reprimand him with a 'working late' excuse.

He slid back down in his seat, glaring at the TV.

"It's your fault," he murmured to it.

The remote control went airborne almost immediately after the accusation.

The wooden front door to the shack opened and shut softly, the twin-tailed fox being careful not to let any cold in. Stepping on each heel of his red and white shoes, he set them to the side. GUN had been rather hectic with him today, telling him they just needed some repairs and ended up 'ordering' him to re-model all their fighter jets! If not for the horror of losing the little shack up in Mystic Ruins, he wouldn't care to help them at all.

A golden glow came from the front room, enhanced by the twinkling of the Christmas tree lights. Smiling softly, he stepped through, noticing the blue quills almost immediately. The owner twisted round, eyes lighting up for the first time that night.

"Tails!" the hedgehog almost squealed, trying to stop himself leaping over the couch and glomping him right there.

White furred muzzle curved slightly as a smirk-smile came onto the fox's face.

"Hi Sonic... hey, shouldn't you be in bed already? It is almost midnight..."

Blue eyes twinkled knowingly as Tails left the room momentarily to put his jacket in the closet. Sonic scoffed.

"You think I'd be able to sleep in that bed without you there beside me? Anyway, how'd work go?"

Cobalt almost yelped in surprise as soft ungloved hands came round his torso from the back of the couch. The hands wrapped round him and pinned him to the couch playfully, making him submit to the light butterfly kisses going over the curve of his left ear.

"It went great -- bored feelings were held at bay. I mean, how many positions could I imagine you in to keep me occupied for fifteen hours?" Tails' hushed voice murmured into the other ear.

Another cute pout began on Sonic's face as he squirmed against the hands, wanting desperately to kiss the orange fox back. It was no go -- kissing turned into licking as the hands began to explore and keep him pinned all at once.

"Meanie..." he mumbled, leaning back into the couch and letting Tails have his way.

"How am I a meanie?" One ear cocked slightly, in confusion.

"You take all the fun!"

A wicked smile began to dance in sapphire eyes, as a plan began to concoct that would leave Sonic a bright purple and shut him up quicker than a gag.

"Oh contraire, hedgehog, I believe it was the other way round last night..."

Jackpot.

The hedgehog's eyes widen considerably, and on cue, the tips of his ears shaded red, as did his muzzle. The fox giggled; truly Sonic blushing was a cute sight, and a rare moment in itself. Hopping over the couch, he quickly stole a few nachos from the frozen hedgehog. A smirk began to grow on his face, and taking a few nacho's also, Sonic fed a few to Tails, followed by a soft kiss and gently pet on the forehead.

"Sonic Hedgehog, you are hopeless."

"In love? Or do you prefer me that way?" another smirk began to appear as he dodged a playful fwap.

Both laughing now, Tails pounced atop the hedgehog, using a foot to press the off button on the remote.

"Hey, why'd you turn it off?" the hedgehog queried, looking back to the now black TV.

Orange-furred Mobian leaned further down, brushing lips against his own.

"You weren't watching it anyway."

Then they made contact in a soft and tender moment. Their hands wrapped around each other as tongues began to push through into each other’s warm caverns, now locked in such a sweet loving touch. Soon, the younger one broke away, resisting the temptation to rejoin the 'playing' at Sonic's whimper.

"Not yet Sonikku; this place is freezing! And it is Christmas Eve... Tell you what, you pick out a movie and I'll boil the kettle," the bi-tailed fox said, slipping off his unsatisfied boyfriend to walk to the kitchen.

Sonic huffed again, another pout beginning. Tails was enjoying the torture on his lust and the worst thing was they both knew it. After a minute he rolled off the couch, landing on his feet and moving off to look over at the DVD rack. In the other room, sapphire looked up slowly from getting the mugs out of the cupboard, just catching the sight of his boyfriend beginning to bend down, his butt in full view.

'Oh yeah, now that's a sight I'd kill to see....'

~*~

Indeed the room felt a lot homier with the blue glow of the TV and the two lovers snuggled up on the couch together, sipping hot chocolate. Tails was a killer for hot chocolate and Sonic would beg on his hands and knees for it. So when he finally finished setting up the DVD player and spotting the familiar substance in his blue mug, he couldn't help but glomp the fox for it. And the movie was ok as well -- from Tails' point of view as the speedster couldn't keep his eyes off of his boyfriend. His lover. He loved saying things like that towards or about Tails. 'My Tails'. 'Sonic's Tails'. They just went together in such an irresistible way...

Almost unconsciously, his head found the bi-tailed ones shoulder, mug rested on his knees as he closed his eyes. Creamy fur tickled him softly, before a black nose rubbed against his muzzle. Finally, after the whole night spent pouting and being increasingly frustrated he was content with everything. The soft beating of their hearts, the scent of chocolate in the air, orange and white tails wrapped around and settled in his waist...

"I love you Tails" he mumbled, knowing exactly what he was going to get back...

"I love you too Sonic." followed by a gentle stroking going from his forehead, down his quills, slipping down onto the back of his neck and resuming the movement down his spine.

A shiver of delight rushed through him and almost immediately he wrapped his hands and legs further around the younger one, their bodies rubbing close together, fur meshing together. A chuckle started in Tails' chest.

"What am I gonna do with you..." he murmured, before locking lips again but only for a few minutes, drawing away when feeling his mouth come into contact with something sticky.

The chuckle turned into a giggle as he noted Sonic's mouth messed with creamy hot chocolate. Softly, he lapped about the mouth, Sonic drawing closer to the feeling of wetness whisping over his skin. Tails shook his head then drew the hedgehog up against him in a gentle hug, a wave of protection going through him as his once best friend and brother, now boyfriend, curled up round him.

Then together the two laid back against the couch, eyes closed and relishing in the feel of having someone so close to them in their hearts, oblivious to the first twinkle of white against the black, before a solitary snowflake landed on the windowsill outside, promising the two lovers a white Christmas when they next wake...
