A/N: I just realised that it's been over 2 months since I last posted anything. Oops. To make up for it, I'll try to get through the 26 Christmas/Winter themed prompts until my birthday on the 26th. Enjoy!

Pushing your hands deeper in the pockets of your coat, you sighed quietly. It was cold, really cold, and honestly you wondered what had made you think you needed to be here ten minutes early. Looking up into the dark night sky, you saw stars twinkling brightly, even over the orange glow of the street lamp you were waiting under. Just when you were about to regret that you had decided not to wear a scarf, you heard footsteps coming down the street. Turning your head, you saw a tall figure approach you, and immediately you heart speed up with excitement.

"Dallon!"

Pulling your hand out of the coat's pocket, you waved and grinned as you saw the smile that pulled at your lover's lips.

"(Y/n)," he greeted, and you realised you would never get over the way he was saying your name so sweetly, "I'm sorry, am I late?"

You shook your head and got on your tip toes to meet his lips for a quick peck.

"Nah, I was early," you shrugged.

"Sorry you had to wait," Dallon mumbled, and gently took hold of your hand.

Through the gloves both of you were wearing you could not feel his hand as good as you would have liked, but your heart fluttered at the gesture anyway. For how long had you been dating? And you were still so enchanted by gestures like this?

"I could've timed arriving here better," you grinned, and looked up at Dallon. "Shall we?"

For a moment he seemed to be thinking about something, getting lost in your eyes, but then he nodded.

"You said you wanted to go for hot chocolate," he asked, as you slowly started walking.

"Yeah. It's that one café we were still sitting in in summer, but now they sell take away, since they can't have the guests sitting inside," you explained. "They also have pastries and stuff like that so if you're hungry...?"

"I'll think about it," Dallon nodded. "So, how was your day?"

Hand in hand you walked down the street, talking about your day. You told him about the things that had happened at work, while Dallon tried explaining what kind of music he had written over the day, and complained about the person at the label he was exchanging mails with. Above you the stars twinkled brightly, and the shop windows were already decorated for Christmas. In some windows there were pine tree twigs and Christmas baubles, in others fake snow was arranged to look like a winter landscape. Some shops had put up garlands, others had written cute messages with chalk-pens against the windows.

Even though you were walking, cuddled into your jacket, you eventually began shivering a little, and more and more you started looking forward to a hot drink.

Dallon noticed of course, and stopped in his tracks, causing you to stop, too. Taking his scarf of, he wrapped it around your neck. Immediately the warmth engulfed you, and his familiar smell rose into your nose. Smiling up at him, you felt a blush rise into your cheeks. Again there was that absentminded look on Dallon's face.

Curiously you studied his expression, but when he did not react, you reached one hand up to his face, brushing your thumb over his cheek.

"Dallon?" He flinched at the sound of his name, and stared at you wide eyed. "Everything okay?"

"Yes, just..." gently he took your hand in his, massaging it through your glove. "I was... I was wondering if maybe... do you wanna move in with me? It's just... We'd be able to see each other more and I-"

"I'd love to," you interrupted his nervous ramble, ignoring how fast your heart was beating.

"Really?"

Immediately his eyes started glowing and a big smile spread over his face. Quickly he bent down to you and pressed a passionate kiss to your lips, leaving both of you breathless and giggling.

"Now... should we get some of that hot chocolate to celebrate," Dallon suggested, a bright, dorky smile lighting up his face.

You nodded and intertwined your gloved fingers with his again, and together you made your way further down the street into the late evening city.
