silentiuum

It seemed his hours at work had gotten longer lately and he came home later. While his job wasn't particularly hard, staying so long and having a lot of customers tended to take a toll on him. Not to mention Eli was filling in for others so he had to go in earlier, losing some sleep as a result. After arriving back at home, he went over to Umbra and wrapped his arms around him. His head was set his boyfriend's shoulder and he let out a slight groan. "Mmm, I'm home..."

Umbra hands a small box to Eli, swallowing almost nervously as he waits for the response. Inside, Eli will find a smartphone. Umbra spent a few days working a couple jobs organizing books and such at the bookstore nearby. The owner had made it clear to other’s that he wasn’t a normal employee, so he hadn’t been bothered. He’d just.. Wanted to get something nice for Eli. He had so much to be thankful to him for. And if Eli looked under said phone, there was something else too. The thing that Umbra actually was waiting for him to see.

A note.

"Thanks, Umbra!" Smiling, he takes the box and carefully unwraps the gift. Eyes sparkled as he took out his gift, his smile only getting bigger. "I love it! Thanks so much!" And he'll give Umbra a big ol' bear hug, even picking him up a little. When he set his friend down, he noticed something that was underneath the smartphone. "Oh--a card." It looks long too. Well, he didn't mind. Not one bit. While Umbra wasn't too hard to read (at least in his own opinion), it was nice to see what he was thinking.

The more he read, the more his face heated up. This wasn't what he expected at all. Of all things, he didn't think he would get a confession. He read over 'I think I love you Eli' at least three times just to make sure he read it correctly. His heart was racing and he could feel his face burning.

Though it wasn't like he didn't feel the same. He truly, honestly did. Eli just never found the right moment to say it. He was planning on confessing tonight but...Umbra just beat him to it. At least now he knew his feelings were returned A lopsided grin rose to his lips and he'll pull the raven in close so he can give him a kiss. He felt that was the proper response to the confession.

The kiss is broken after a few moments and he lays his forehead against Umbra's. "I...I love you too, Umbra. You're the best present I could ever ask for. I love you. I love you. A-And yes, I'll be your boyfriend." This is the best gift he could have asked for. This was the best Christmas he'd ever had. "Merry Christmas, Umbra."
