The True Spirit of Christmas 

This is more of a snippet than an actual story (I challenge anyone to find
a plot). It takes place after COTW while Fraser and Kowalski are on their
adventure. This is a romantic story so if a m/m pairing bothers you, don't
read it. 

Rated G. Sap warning. I'd like a comment or two, but I refuse to beg. Send
them to raven_free@hotmail.com. 

Disclaimer: I don't own these characters but I'd love to get them for
Christmas. 

The True Spirit of Christmas 

by: Raven 

Ray snuggled closer to Fraser, trying to get some of the Mountie's body
heat. Fraser didn't hesitate to wrap his strong arms around his lover,
drawing him closer.
 "You know something, Fraser?" Ray asked.
 "Mmm?"
 "I'd have never guessed that I could spend a Christmas Eve like this.
Remember last year?" He felt Fraser frown.
 "Ow." Ray gave a small laugh.
 "Look at it, Fraser! Here we are on this ice cap a thousand miles from
nowhere and I'm--I'm happy!" Fraser shifted so he could look Ray in the
eye.
 "Why do you sound so surprised?"
 "Isn't Christmas about being with people, parties, gifts?" Fraser
entwined a hand in Ray's.
 "To me, it's about being with the person I love." He kissed Ray softly on
the lips. Ray then nodded his agreement.
 "Fraser, let's never go back, okay? Just you and me and the snow for
ever. I wouldn't trade the people and the parties and the gifts for
nothing." He settled himself against Fraser again, resting his back
against the Mountie's broad chest. "I want every Christmas to be like
this."
 "They will be, I'm not going anywhere," Fraser reassured him, kissing the
top of Ray's head through his parka.
 "Me neither," Ray said happily. 

Lovingly entwined, they sat back to watch the Northern Lights, knowing
they had found the true spirit of Christmas in each other.
