Derek’s arms. He looped his arms around the older man’s neck. “Is it a naked present?” His question got him a laugh and a kiss on the nose.
    “No, it’s not a naked present. We don’t have time for a naked present. Come on. Your present is by the tree.” Derek gave him one more quick peck, pulled out of the embrace, grabbed his hand and started tugging him out of the kitchen.
    Sky glanced behind him as he was pulled out of the room. His eyes scanned the kitchen for anything out of place. He just wanted everything to be perfect. After bouncing off the doorframe leading to the hallway while looking back at the kitchen, Sky turned around just in time to walk into his non-moving lover. “Ow.” He reached up with his free hand and rubbed his nose, which he had banged on Derek’s shoulder. “Why did you stop?”
    “Mistletoe.” Derek pointed up at the doorframe that led into the living room. Following the motion, while still rubbing his sore nose, Sky looked up to find the little green plant happily attached.
    “Where did that come from?”
    “I put it there.”
    “When?”
    “You were busy in the kitchen. Now, give me my kiss,” Derek instructed. Sky smiled at him and leaned in for a kiss.
    Derek’s lips pressed softly against his. Sky sighed into the sensation and melted against his lover’s strong chest. He parted his lips and eagerly accepted the tongue that came seeking its mate. He loved the way Derek kissed him. Just a simple touch could set him on fire. Sky ran his hands over Derek’s closely cropped hair and cradled his skull, tilting his head slightly so he could deepen the kiss. He moaned as he felt one of Derek’s hands fist in his hair. Sky whimpered when Derek pulled away from him.
    “Sorry, babe, but if we keep that up, we’re going to get in trouble.” Derek’s lips looked delightfully kiss-swollen.
    “How can anything we do together be trouble?”
    “Our parents are coming over. No messing around when there is the chance that they’ll walk in on us.”
    “Your family would at least knock first.”
    “Yes, and your mother uses her key like she lives here. Come on,” Derek said. He tugged on Sky’s arm and led him to the couch. After pushing him onto the cushions, he rummaged around under the tree. Sky watched with a smile on his face. Clothed or unclothed, Derek had a great ass. Sky settled back in the ridiculously comfortable couch that his mother had helped pick out and looked around the room.
    Derek had really outdone himself with the decorations. The room looked amazing. Garland, lights and bows were strung around the room and the tree was a work of art. It looked like a magazine picture of what a living room should look like at Christmas. There was even a fire in the fireplace. Hearing a triumphant shout, Sky turned his attention back to his lover. Derek had found whatever it was that he was looking for under the tree and was moving back to the couch. Sky smiled as Derek settled next to him.
    “Have I told you how amazing this room looks?” He reached out and ran a finger down Derek’s nose. Sky let his finger pause across Derek’s lips and got a soft kiss. He pulled his finger away with a smile.
    “No, but I’m glad that you like it. I wanted our first Christmas in our new home to be special.”
    Sky reached out and linked his fingers with Derek’s again. “Well, you’ve done it.” He lifted their linked hands and pressed a kiss to the back of Derek’s hand. “This is turning into a wonderful Christmas.”
    “Here, open this,” Derek said. He handed Sky a small box wrapped in shiny green paper with a red bow.
    Sky smiled at Derek as he took the small package. He and Derek had exchanged gifts the night before, and while he had one other small thing for Derek to exchange with the family there, he hadn’t expected anything else from his lover. He pulled off the bow and tore off the paper. When the black jeweler’s box was sitting naked in his hand, his heart
