    Summary

    Fresh off of a break up, David meets Patrick at a bar and over a festive cocktail, they agree to be each other's platonic dates for all holidays going forward to lessen pressure from family and the stress of having to spend the holidays alone. Nothing can possibly go wrong. It's not like David is going to develop feelings.

    Right?

    Or, a Holidate (2020) AU.

    Summary

    Getting downstairs takes quite a bit longer—and somewhat more clinging to the banister and silently cursing—than usual, but he manages. When he rounds the corner, he smiles at the sight of David in his favorite armchair, wearing the glasses he swears he doesn’t need and intently focused on something in his lap. It’s hard to tell from this angle, but it looks like he’s sewing something. Patrick leans against the wall and just watches for a moment. He’s always loved watching David work, the way his long, graceful fingers work with such precision, the way his brow furrows, the way he gets so absorbed in the task that not even an appearance by Mariah herself could distract him.

     

    After Patrick is injured while hiking, David takes care of him.

    Summary

    "What if we spent a weekend together? That way we could monitor each other." How did that half-formed, audacious idea somehow escape from Patrick's fantasy out into their conversation? But a bros weekend wasn't so crazy, was it? Friends did that, and he and David had been friends for close to a year, right?

    "Ray has been trying to rent out this cabin that's in the middle of nowhere. He offered me free rentals to manage the basic upkeep." Patrick focused intently on the paper, his pencil making staccato scritches. "It's really nice. Two bedrooms, a fireplace. It even has an espresso machine. And the price is right."

    Summary

    When David finally opens his front door, Patrick Brewer is leaning against the entryway wall, arms crossed and foot tapping against the floor, clad in a pair of very tight Levi's and the ugliest puffer jacket that David has ever seen. The fashion disaster, however, can't hide how attractive Patrick is—broad shoulders, thick thighs, and a couple of stray curls peaking out of the toque crammed on his head all take David by surprise. Even the whiskey-brown eyes are gorgeous, despite the way they're narrowed in David's direction.

    David is a celebrity stylist, tasked with styling up and coming indie musician Patrick Brewer, but a freak snowstorm traps them together.

    Summary

    David is trying to make something of himself.

    Patrick is just trying to make it through the day.

    When Patrick accidentally calls David one night, the two men find comfort, support, and maybe something more in the voice on the other end of the line.
