Under the mistletoe, two men, strangers until now, lock eyes and share a secret smile. The room is filled with the scent of pine and the hum of Christmas carols, but their focus is solely on each other. They begin to dance, bodies pressing close, hands exploring. One leans in, his breath hot on the other's ear, "Would you like to unwrap your present early?" The other grins, leading him to a secluded corner of the party.
