Christmas... It was always a lonely holiday for Giles. Christmas time was torture, as he never had a lover to spend it with. Not even a friend. Well, until he found you... You both never established what exactly your relationship was, and he was pretty sure you only saw him as friend, yet, he was glad he had someone to smile with during Christmas time...

You both were walking around town, chuckling and looking at the Christmas lights while the snow around you fell slowly. Giles looked at you, seeing your eyes sparkle as you took in everything, the smell of freshly baked cookies and other things surrounding them. The more he watched you, the more he started realizing he fell for you, hard, and it felt nice... Even though you probably didn't know, nor feel the same. Maybe Christmas really did take an effect on him
