Ed kicked off his boots at the door and stopped dead as he entered the living room.
“What the hell is that?”
“It’s a Christmas tree Ed.” Roy said calmly arranging ornaments.
“What the hell is it doing in our house?”
“Well there’s this holiday on the 25th where people get together with the people they love. They exchange gifts. It’s all very lovely.”
“I know about fucking Christmas Roy. But you’re no more a Christian than I am.”
“Be sure to tell that to my Mother.” Roy placed the last ornament. Broke open a box of candy canes and started putting them on the tree too.
“No.”
“Yes.”
“Your parents are coming for Christmas?”
“Just five days.”
“Five days! They hate me. You know they hate me. Five fucking days!?”
“They promised to be nice.”
“I remember the last time they were nice. Your mother called me a whore.”
“That’s not fair. You were antagonizing her, and she did apologize.”
“So what? She still thinks I’m some vile creature that turned her precious baby Roy all icky and gay.”
“Ed please, They’ll come in Thursday and leave Monday. It’s not that big of a problem. Ya wanna put the star on top.” Ed glared at him then the top of the 6 foot tree he clearly couldn’t reach.
“I didn’t-”
“No fine, have your fucking short jokes, and your fucking tree, and your fucking homophobic family. Obviously you don’t need me for any of it.” Ed stormed out of the house slamming the door behind him.
“Well that could have gone better.” Roy told the cat who was watching the bulbs on the lowest branches.

Roy was already in bed by the time Ed decided to come home.
“You came back.” Roy said looking up from his book.
“Yeah, I live here.” Ed shucked his shirt and went into the adjoining bathroom to brush his teeth.
“Are you still mad?” Roy spoke a little louder so he could be heard over the running water. Ed came out of the bathroom with his toothbrush in his mouth and shrugged.
“Not as much as I was.” He went to go spit.
“I didn’t mean to upset you.”
Ed came back from the bathroom took off his pants and shooed the cat away so he could climb into bed.
“When did all this get decided? I thought they were going to Aspen with the Perfect Family.” Roy rolled his eyes at Ed’s nickname for his brother’s family.
“My mother called me this morning in hysterics. Vanessa broke her arm. So they ‘couldn’t possibly impose’ on them and it was to late to refund their tickets. I didn’t have much of a choice in the matter.”
“It’s just five days?”
“You’ll hardly notice them.”
Ed chuckled and curled up against Roy’s side.
“You owe me.”
“Of course love.”
