As the room was slowly bathed in the red hues of as close to sunrise as Hell ever got, Husk stirred. Blinking the sleep out of his eyes took effort, and above him, he heard a soft laugh. Bleary-eyed and squinting against the light outside the window, he turned his eyes up.

Lucifer was sitting between him and Angel, who was sleeping with his face pressed against Lucifer’s hip, arms wrapped around his thigh.

“Merry Christmas.”

Lucifer’s voice was soft, quiet, Husk unable to stop his loud purrs as he felt gentle claws run through his fur.

“Merry Christmas.”

 

He pulled himself upward, until he could lean heavily against Lucifer’s side. At the flick of a wrist, he felt the blanket that had been thrown around Lucifer’s shoulders envelop him too. The warmth of his body seeped into Lucifer’s, and as he nuzzled Lucifer’s neck, still barely awake, he heard Lucifer’s purrs join his own.

“What does the king of Hell do on Christmas morning, anyway?”

“Usually? Wallow. Rot. Make ducks. Nothing unusual.”

Husk snorted, his breath warm against Lucifer’s neck. “Mm, checks out.”

“Hey, I’m not wallowing right now, am I?”

 

Lucifer’s claws combed through Angel’s hair, carefully untangling a small knot. Angel’s arms tightened around his thigh, his cheek pressed against him, making them both smile.

“Dare I say this is the best Christmas morning I’ve had in quite a while, actually.”

“Even though we’ve just been sleeping?”

“I like watching you sleep. You’re cute.”

Husk raised a hand, turning Lucifer his way by a gentle grip on his chin. He leaned forward, capturing his lips. He could feel Lucifer smile into the kiss, could feel a hand in his hair, burying into the hair at the nape of his neck.

As he pulled back, his lips parted in a grin. “If I weren’t into you that’d sound creepy, you know that, right?”

“Good thing you like me, then.”

 

Their eyes turned downward at the sound of giggling. They were met by Angel’s sleepy smile, his eyes still closed. Lucifer’s fingers moved from his hair to his cheek, his poke making him giggle harder.

Angel’s eyes blinked open, meeting theirs. “Didn’t think I’d wake up to a plateful’a cheese this mornin’.”

Lucifer laughed. “Good morning to you too, Angel. Merry Christmas.”

“Mm, merry Christmas to you too.”

 

Angel’s fingers ran along Lucifer’s thigh, claws gently scratching his skin. It made Lucifer shiver as his fingers moved higher, playing with the hem of his shorts, teasing the skin just underneath. “Careful, there.”

Angel’s eyes sparkled. “‘M not doin’ anythin’.”

“Of course you aren’t.”

With a laugh, Angel let Lucifer go. With such long legs, he could easily straddle both of them at once, his arms thumping against the headboard as he trapped them between his arms. The grin on his face was devious.

“I think Imma need a bigger stocking if I’m gonna be able to fit both of ya in there.”

 

He leaned in, pressing a kiss to Husk’s lips. They were warm against his, his body still relaxed from having just woken up. Husk’s hand ran through his hair, pulling it out of his face. He pressed his chest against Husk and Lucifer’s shoulders.

As he let his third set of arms appear, one hand ran up Lucifer’s chest, up his neck. His thumb grazed Lucifer’s lips. He felt them part, his tongue wrapping around his fingers, pulling them into his mouth, sucking.

 

Angel broke the kiss, eyes turning toward Lucifer. Even with his fingers in his mouth, he was grinning.

“Now who’s the one doin’ things?”

He could feel the vibration of Lucifer’s chuckle around his fingers. As he pressed the pad of his finger against the center of Lucifer’s tongue, he watched his mouth fall open. With his eyelids lowering, his face flushing, Lucifer’s expression was downright erotic.

Angel bit his lip, exchanging a glance with Husk.

“I hope you’re not too hungry,” he said, the grin on his face widening. “Cus I’m not lettin’ either of ya leave this bed for at least a couple’a hours.”

Judging by just how loud Lucifer’s purring became, he didn’t seem to mind in the slightest.

 

Husk’s hands cupped his cheeks, pulling him in for another kiss. As he pulled back, Angel felt his cheeks flush at the look on Husk’s face.

“By the time we’re done here, I’ll make sure we’re all starving.”
