I Run To You (boy×boy)

Chapter 27: Christmas

"Are you ready?" Axle asks wearing his hoodie that Liam got him. And light blue jeans.

"Yup." Liam says.

"A'ight." Axle says taking Liam's hand.

...

Ding! Dong! Ding! Dong!

The bells went when Axle rang the doorbell to Troy's house. Troy's mom, their principal, opened the door.

"Hello Liam and Axle. It's so nice to see you guys again. Come in. Come in. Please." Ms. Rodriguez says.

They walked in to the warm home which smelled like turkey and cookies. Liam took in a deep breath with a smile.

"It smells great." Axle says.

"Well thank you." She says surprised at how nice Axle is acting.

She brought them to the dining room. Liam was so happy to see Ethan and his mom and Troy with his mom.

"Go put the presents underneath the tree, sweeties." Troy's mom says going into the kitchen with Ethan's mom.

"Hey Troy." Liam says hugging Troy from the side.

"Hey Liam. Hey Axle." Troy says. Axle nods his way putting the gifts under the tree.

"Hey guys." Ethan says squeezing Troy's torso.

"Hey." Axle says waving.

"Ethan!" Liam says going on his tip toes to hug Ethan.

"Hey!" Ethan says. Axle and Troy talk for a while until Troy and Ethan's mom come out with plates and cups and set them down.

"Okay let's open presents first." Ethans mom says.

"Okay." They all say in unison.

Troy gets a computer and a new game. Ethan gets some nerdy book that's an inside joke with his mom. Their moms got books and jewelry from Troy and Ethan.

"We are going to take out the turkey. Someone come help please." Troy's mom says. " We need to get the sides out." Troy and Ethan go.

Liam gave Axle his last present hesitantly. He didn't know if Axle would like it or not.

"Let's see what you got." Axle says opening the black velvet box. He looked down and smiled brightly at Liam. He picked up a small gold chain with the word Axle engraved in it. It had silver rhinestones around his name. It was gorgeous. Axle actually felt a slight blush creep on to his cheeks.

"Thank you Liam. It's very gorgeous." Axle says kissing Liam's cheek.

"You're welcome." Liam smiles brightly to where you don't see his eyes.

"Here you go." Axle says handing Liam his last gift. It was boxed. Once Liam opened it He was confused.

'Ear buds?' He asks himself.

"Um...thank you." Liam smiles awkwardly. Axle laughs.

"You're so cute." Axle pokes Liam's nose.

"Thanks..." Liam sats frowning at the ear buds.

"Oh....you might need this." Axle says handing Liam a coral blue Samsung Galaxy s8.

"OH......MY.......GAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWDDDDDDD. AAAAAXXXLLEE. thank you thank you yhank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!" Liam says jumping into Axle's lap hugging him tightly.

"It's not the new one, but I hope you like it."

"Bloody hell! Did you blow your dough?!"

"Liam what does that mean?" Axle laughs.

"Did you lose all your money?" Liam says.

"No.."

"How?!"

"I'll tell you about it later. It's okay right?"

"I'm sorry but you buggered me dead!"

"What?"

"I'm so fucking surprised!" Liam says not obtaining his slang.

"Good." Axle says kissing Liam's cheek for hundredth time.

"What happened? Did Liam finally kill Axle?!" Ethan asks coming I getting a small giggle from Liam and a small glare from Axle.

"Look Ethan!" Liam runs over to Ethan with his new phone.

"Daaaammnnnn."

"Language, honey." Says Ms. Hernandez, Ethan's mom.

"Sorry mom." Ethan calls rolling his eyes. "That's a sexy phone."

"It is..." Axle says coming up directly behind Liam scaring the living crap out of Liam.

"The foods ready guys."

They dig in after praying. Axle ate 7 plates. Troy ate 5 and half cause he ate the other half of Ethan's. Ethan had 4 and a half. Liam had 3, and their mothers each had one. Let's just say that was a very big turkey.

"We're gonna go play some games." Troy says. They all follow. Troy and Liam of course play against each other. Each time Troy attempts to win. Meanwhile Ethan and Axle put a puzzle together. That's when they actually start to actually glue pieces together.

"That's the most ducked up puzzle. Come on guys. It only had 24 pieces. It's for a 12 year old." Troy says sighing. Ethan and Axle just shrug as Liam chuckles.

At around 7 o'clock they had dessert then played some more. Then at about 8 Liam and Axle left.

"Tonight was great. Wasn't it?" Liam says.

"Yeah. It was." Axle says taking Liam's hand in his.

...

They both took a shower and started to watch a movie. Elf.
