Christmas Compromised

‘That’s not how you do it,’ Malia growls, arms crossed over herchest.

‘Yes. Itis,’ Braeden argues. She’d really looked forward to theirfirst Christmas in their apartment, but it’s beena disaster from the start. They argue about everything: the lights, thecolours, tinsel or no tinsel, snow or angel hair, the size of the tree; and nowthey’re arguing about how todecorate it.

‘You’re supposed to wrap it around, likethe stripes on a candy cane.’

‘Youneed to loop it, and then criss-cross.’Braeden holds op the lights. ‘Becauseit’s a loop!’

‘So we’re just gonna criss-cross everything?The garlands too?’ Malia asks, eyes wide indisbelief.

‘Yes!That’s how you decorate Christmastrees!’

‘And it’s gonna look like a tree shapedargyle sock!’

‘An… argyle sock?’ Braeden repeats, then bursts out laughing. ‘Says the one wanting to look ourChristmas tree like a candy cane.’

Malia’s jawclenches, then she starts laughing too. It’s not longbefore they’re both clutching theirstomachs and wiping tears from their eyes. Braeden lies down on the floor, unableto stay on her feet. she can just see her girlfriend sitting against the couch,head resting back on the seat. Finally, with aching cheeks and stomachs, theycatch their breaths. She reaches her arm out, and pinches Malia’s toe to get her attention.

‘Sorry,’ she says.

‘Me too.’ Malia looks at her with ruefulsmile. ‘That was probably the dumbestfight we’ve ever head.’

‘Probably,’ Braeden admits. ‘But we still don’t know how we’re gonna decorate that thing.’ She points at the tree. ‘And wecan’t just leave it like this. It looksso sad and naked.’

‘We canalternate,’ Malia suggests. ‘Argyle sock one year, candy cane thenext.’

Braeden sits up and nods. That’s not a bad idea. ‘So… we start with argyle sock?’

‘We flipfor it.’

Braeden pulls a penny from her wallet. She balances it onthe side of her pointer finger. ‘Yourcall,’ she says and flips the pennyup.

‘Heads,’ Malia says, then snatches the pennyout of the air and slams it on the floor. ‘I knowyou know how to win, even after you’veflipped it,’ she answers Braeden’s questioning eyebrows.

Braeden shrugs and smirks. ‘Let’s see what it is.’

Malia removes her hand, and huffs, mouth pulling into apout. ‘It’s tails.’

‘Ha! Inyour face!’ Braeden cheers, then plantsa placating kiss on Malia’scheek. ‘I love you. You can do thefake snow on the windows.’

‘I loveyou, too. Just know that I’m goingto candy cane the hell out of the tree next year. I’m talking red and white, and actual candy canes,’ Malia warns.

‘Andthat’s your prerogative.’ Braeden stands up, pulling Maliawith her. She grabs the string of lights where she dropped it on the floor andhands it to her girlfriend. ‘Can youplease loop this around the tree? I have pictures of argyle socks to google.’

‘Maybethey have really big ones that we can hang up,’ Maliasays with a grin.

Braeden grins back. ‘God, Ilove you so much.’

Braeden/Malia TateRating: G, Word Count: 427Angst, Fluff, Teacher AU, POV Braeden

(For day 13 of my 13 Days of Halloween: the prompt-a-thon)

Braeden watches Malia and Derek whisperconspiratorially on the makeshift stage, a smile on both of their faces. Herstomach twists painfully, like it has been doing all night. Why is she gettingso upset? It’s just a costume contest. For couples. That Malia has been doingwith her since Braeden started working at the school as a History teacher.Derek’s a nice guy, beautiful, funny. Malia deserves someone nice and beautifuland funny. Braeden knows she’s only got two out of three.

Braeden’s drink goes down the wrong way.Trying not to splutter and pull attention to herself, she coughs the beer outof her windpipe. Did she just compare herself to Derek as a potential romanticpartner for Malia? Oh shit. Shereally did.

She throws back the rest of her drink,then gets another. The woman manning the drinks gives her a new beer with asmall and slightly harried smile. Braeden can’t blame her. There’s somethingabout drinking alcohol while in a school, even when you’re a teacher, thatmakes you drink a little more than usual. Even Ms. Draycott is looking a littletipsy, and she’s been a teacher for almost thirty years.

The winners of the contest areannounced, and Braeden is both relieved and sad that Derek and Malia didn’twin.

‘Bummer,’ she says when the pair reachher, putting on a nice smile. She can be nice for her friend. ‘You two had thebest costume in my opinion.’

‘I know,’ Malia grins, adjusting the harnessthat holds up the giant cardboard full moon a little.

‘At least I can take these out now.’Derek stuffs his fake werewolf teeth in his pocket. ‘Hey, Mals, mom wanted toknow if you’re coming to ours for Thanksgiving this year.’

Braeden’s stomach twists again. They’replanning holidays together, with family.

‘Of course,’ Malia says. ‘Wouldn’t missauntie Talia’s turkey for anything.’

‘Aunt?’ Braeden asks. Does that mean…

‘Derek’s my cousin. What did you think?’Malia frowns, then one side of her mouth pulls up in a smirk.

‘I’m going to get drinks,’ Derek says,looking from one woman to the other, then quickly walking away.

‘Did you think Derek was my date? Wereyou jealous?’ Malia teases, tilting her head and raising her eyebrows

‘What if I was?’ Braeden throws backdefiantly. Her eyes are fixed on Malia’s, but her insides are filled withbutterflies.

Malia takes a step closer, pressing thecardboard moon against Braeden’s chest. ‘Then I’d ask if you wanted to be myplus one for turkey day.’
