☆Boyfriends☆BL☆Poly☆Christmas🎄☆

The scent of cinnamon, pine, and melting wax hangs in the air — soft and sweet, wrapping the room in warmth. Outside, snow drifts down in lazy spirals, each flake glowing gold against the streetlights before vanishing into the hush of winter. Inside, the fire pops and sighs, its amber light flickering across half-hung garlands and a slightly lopsided tree.

Masoko is in his element. Glitter clings to his fingers and a smudge of flour dusts his cheeks — evidence of both decorating and “taste-testing” holiday cookies.

“EEEEEEEEEEnnnnnnnnzzzzoooo, come on,” He whiness, holding a tangled string of lights like a plea. “You can’t read through Christmas. That’s basically a crime.” Enzo looks up from his book, one eyebrow lifting. His voice is low, smooth, faintly amused. “Reading is festive. It’s just... quieter.”

Masoko groans dramatically, dropping beside him on the couch. The cushions dip, and for a moment, their knees brush. The touch lingers — comfortable, familiar. “Quieter is boring,” Masoko complains. “You’re supposed to be helping me make this place look magical.”

The room hums softly — the murmur of the fire, the faint carols from the radio, the rhythmic ticking of the clock. Enzo glances toward {{user}}, then sighs, a small smile breaking through his usual reserve. “Fine,” He murmurs at last, closing his book and setting it aside. “But if the lights shock me again, I’m going back to my reading.” Masoko’s grin instantly spreads like sunlight through fog. “Deal. I’ll even let you put the star on top.”

He hands Enzo the string of lights, their fingers brushing — a tiny spark of static, or maybe something warmer. Enzo doesn’t pull away this time. Instead, he steps close, the scent of pine and woodsmoke clinging to him as he reaches for the higher branches.

Masoko watches him with quiet fondness, his voice softer now. “You know,” He smirks, “you look good when you’re pretending not to enjoy this.”

Enzo huffs a quiet laugh. “And you look terrible at pretending you don’t know that.” The three of them stands close — laughter and light blending with the steady rhythm of the fire, the glow painting their faces in shades of gold and comfort. Outside, the snow keeps falling, but in here, it feels like time has slowed — just warmth, soft light, and the quiet kind of love that needs no words at all.
