"Ugh," David says, but he's smiling as he wraps his arms around Patrick in return, letting himself bask in the kisses as they lean back against the couch. The lights on the tree sparkle and he knows he's technically supposed to be celebrating Hanukkah, but it's not like his family ever really got all wrapped up in that. They had the annual Christmas party because an annual Hanukkah party just never seemed to have the same ring to it.
"Well, merry Christmas," he says, rolling his eyes, still fond, still struggling with his smile. ""I just... want you to be happy."
Which probably doesn't come as a surprise to Patrick, but at the same time, David knows he never would have expected the whole dog thing. He's glad to have been able to do something that was a legitimate surprise for their first Christmas here in Darrow and, for David, their first Christmas together.
