Mistletoe Kisses

“Mistletoe! Kiss!”

Wind’s shout had the two avians in the hall away freezing, looking up. A bundle of mistletoe has been hung in the hallway and Wind is pressed to the upper railing, watching for victims. 

Sky laughs and leans down, pressing a kiss to the top of Four’s head. The bee-eater giggles and ducks under Sky’s feathers, before popping up and tackling the Frigatebird from behind. 

They continue, leaving Wind to his prank. 

“Mistletoe! Kiss!”

Warriors flips off the tropicbird, but Twilight slings an arm around his shoulder and plants a loud smack on his cheek. 

“It’s in the rules!” Then he bolts because the captain’s threat call doesn’t sound like a joke. 

“Mistletoe! Kiss!”

Hyrule and Wild walk arm and arm and pause as they look up. The magpie slips his arm free and grabs Hyrule’s hand. With an exaggerated bow, he flares his wings and presses a kiss to the back of the traveler’s hand. 

“Your Highness? Shall we continue?”

Hyrule sticks his nose in the air and swaggers down the hall in…an attempt at nobleness, maybe. “Come, squire, my bath awaits.”

“Squire? Hey, what gives! I should at least be a court jester!”

“I’ll pay you not to sing.”

“Mistletoe! Oh…it’s just you, Time.” Wind’s feathers droop as no one else follows him down the hall. 

The kite smiles. “If you came down here I’d have someone to walk with.”

“Oh!”

Wind hops the railing, spreading his wings to soften the landing. Legend would have a fit, but he’s not here. 

Time ruffles his hair and then pulls him into a hug, pressing a kiss to his forehead. “Come on, little gremlin.”

He hoists the sailor over his shoulder and is rewarded with screeching and flapping feathers. 

Undettered, he continues down the hall. 

“Someone put up mistletoe.” Ravio looks up at the bundle of greens, suspended from an empty upper hallway. 

Legend would put good rupees on it being one of Chain, or Ravio has a ghost and hasn’t told him yet. 

“Do you want…” Ravio trails off as he turns back to find Legend much closer. 

The bowerbird reaches out and entwines their fingers on both hands, pulling him close. 

“I want you to kiss me.”

The bowerbird trills sweetly back. “I can do that.”

2 - It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas - Gabe/Kitty

It's Beginning... (AO3)

“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas,” Kitty Bennet sang softly as she walked beside him. The overcrowded store they were trying to navigate was full of Christmas decorations and signs proclaiming various items to be the “perfect” gift.

“It’s November third,” Gabe Bromley muttered, though his tone didn’t have much rancor in it due to the company. He could admit to himself that he had a soft spot for the adorable romance novelist, but only to himself.

Gabe didn’t know how he came to be informally adopted by the ever-growing Bennet family, but he was grateful for it. It started nearly two years before, when he met Leland and Mary Arnold at a Christmas party Gabe’s architecture firm threw for its best clients. The earl and countess weren’t the most social people but then neither was Gabe, so naturally they hit it off immediately. They invited him along to Mary’s family’s annual summer picnic six months later and that’s where he met her younger sister Kitty. The entire Bennet family accepted him immediately but it was Kitty who seemed to make it her mission in life to get past his walls.

And she succeeded. They were friends, good friends even, despite having little in common, and while a big part of him wanted more, he wasn’t sure if he was cut out for a long-term relationship – none of his previous girlfriends had stayed with him more than a year.

And if I’m going to be with Kitty, it’s going to be forever. She deserves nothing less.

“Christmas Creep is only a problem if you’re a Scrooge,” Kitty said before going over to a display of ornaments.

His cane tapped on the floor as he followed her to the display, unable to keep a smile off his face. “Has anyone ever told you you’re part magpie?”

Kitty chuckled as she picked out the sparkliest ornaments. “You’re definitely not the first. Lydia says I’m named after the wrong animal.” She added her haul to the basket hanging from the crook of her elbow then she smirked at him. “But, I am a discerning magpie – I only collect the best, whether it’s ornaments or friends.”

Ask her out, dumbass. “What … what about boyfriends?”

She raised an eyebrow. “I wasn’t quite so discerning before I went to uni, then I realized that what I wanted was quality, not quantity. Why do you ask?”

Do it. “How do you feel about converting a friend to a boyfriend?” He was nervous, he knew she could see it, so he gave her his most charming smile to hide it. “I’m not perfect but I’m willing to learn.”

Her pinkened cheeks gave him hope, as did the smile she had as she looked down at a nearby display of wreaths. “My family adores you, and you’ve survived multiple dinners with them, so you’re certainly strong enough to endure dating a Bennet girl.”

“But I don’t want just any Bennet girl, I want the best.”

She smirked at him. “Jane’s married.”

Gabe chuckled. “I mean the fourth Bennet girl, one Catherine “Kitty” Bennet. She’s the best for me, therefore she’s the best overall.”

Kitty’s dimples when she grinned at him made him want to kiss her right then and there but he decided it would be better to wait. “Is that so?”

“Yes, that’s so.” He held out his free hand. “I’ll even let you decorate my flat for Christmas, so long as it’s not before December first.”

She took his hand and nothing had ever felt so right. “Does that include mistletoe?” she asked impishly.

Gabe smirked. “I think exceptions can be made.”
