The Key to Christmas

Adjusting the bells attached to his elf costume, Felix tossed out the milk he'd left out for Santa the night before. He ate one cookie but left the others for later. Not that Trenton would have any since he didn't care for the holiday but still, maybe since it was just a couple of chocolate chip cookies he could convince him to eat one. It had been an odd year but they'd made it from their first, not so great impression to the less than a year, serious relationship.

Most of his friends didn't understand them as a couple because he loved Christmas more than any other holiday while Trenton didn't feel the same. He never thought he'd fall for a Grinch but other factors more than made up for it.

He didn't have much time as he searched for his elf hat. Trenton's shift at the shelter would end soon and he'd be up next, volunteering to serve food to those in need, like he did every year.

Tradition held that year as he checked out the stocking his friends had helped put together so he could be surprised by the tiny gifts each year. Or he followed his usual routine until taking down the red candy cane stocking revealed a green tree one half hidden by his mantle snow blanket. Taken aback, he picked up the unfamiliar stocking with his name embroidered across the folded top.

While a couple of friends came to mind as who might give him a surprise, it didn't take many items from the sock for him to realize the actual culprit. First thing he pulled out was a small box of condoms and that was soon followed by peppermint pleasure gel.

The sexual suggestion said Trenton, which came off odd because he didn't do anything holiday related except volunteer since he didn't like the commercial aspects that he claimed took over the winter festivals.

With a smile, Felix gave one last check to see if he missed anything and near the bottom toe area, he felt something cold and small. Confused, he plucked the item out of the stocking, exposing a keychain with a couple of different keys attached.

"Good morning." The door opened that had been unlocked earlier and Trenton stepped into the small apartment living room. "Oh good, you found it."

Rushing over, he threw his arms around his boyfriend and pushed their bodies together so their lips could meet. The excitement increased more than any Christmas Day morning.

After a couple of minutes, Trenton pulled away. Catching his gaze, he let one hand brush against the side of Felix's face down to his neck. "About the keys. I figure this is a good middle ground and if things work out, in the future we can look for a place together."

It put a damper to his plan of action as he stared down at the keys, realizing what the gift meant. The suggestion of moving in together in the future after nearly a year into the relationship gave him a different level of excitement.

While he didn't have a gift to give in return, as was requested, he knew he could offer something still. Not that they had much time before he was scheduled to volunteer and his boyfriend needed to sleep. But he needed nothing more than a little help from a stocking item to get things moving quick. The peppermint gel had the most use in the moment so he picked it up, leaving the condoms for later.

He kissed Trenton again, slower and stronger than before, letting his hands start the rest he worked on the zipper of his boyfriend's tight jeans. Sinking down onto his knees, Felix used some of the gel, sliding his hand against the hard cock, slow but steady. The peppermint scent held strong. Licking his finger, he enjoyed the fresh flavor, using the addition as he put his mouth to better use.

Trenton's legs quivered after a few minutes of attention before he settled back into a chair. One of his hands played with Felix's hair, gripping on occasion, while the other clutched at any material available. The indications held strong and it didn't take long for the encouragement to reach full force.

Using his tongue more, he ignored the now overwhelming mint with the weird mix in sexual flavoring. The pleasure of giving and receiving helped too as he worked harder to elicit louder reactions in return. His hand helped add some speed and friction, until they reached the desired end and Felix could settle away and work feeling back into his feet.

Flushed, Trenton had a goofy grin as he struggled with his pants, the level of energy showing in his movement. "You make it hard for me to get home after a long night."

"Stay here." Felix stepped closer, giving him a kiss then a gentle push towards the bedroom. "It's your home too."

He nodded before letting him go. "Merry Christmas."
