Author Notes: A quick wham bam thank you ma'am kind of story. If you want a quickie, you're in the right place, if you want an actual story with background and character development, this isn't for you. It's also a fantasy so don't read it expecting a strictly realistic scenario.
With that said, bon appetitΓ³ ;)

On the eve of new years day is when this story takes place. Outside was dark, the clear night sky crisp and clear with a bone shattering temperature of minus forty degrees Celsius. But you wouldn't necessarily know it from the comfort of Darcy and Clair's snugly warmed home that sat at a cushty twenty two degrees even. The two siblings were but a year apart and shared the place to attend the same university. Darcy at the time was twenty one and Clair was nineteen. Darcy had waited for Clair to start her own university course before starting his so they could attend university together, just like in high school. This was the first time that they had to spend their Christmas without their parents thanks in no small way to the five feet of snow that had piled up in their state. Even the big snow ploughs couldn't keep up with such a down pour of white, cold to the touch water in visually fluffy form. Their parents were two states over to the east and had no hope of arriving before the start of their next semester in less than one weeks time.
Clair put her hand on the glass window that overlooked the entry way into their humble home. It had two well sized bedrooms plus the bare minimum to satisfy other in home needs, situated on two floors, with the bedrooms and a single bathroom occupying all of the upstairs.
Clair said to Darcy, with a hand still up on the window "The house is so nice and toasty, but this pane of glass is so cold my hand might just catch frostbite through it."
"Aye, it's a modern miracle we have heaters now. People regularly died at these temperature's in the comfort of their own homes and wrapped up in their beds. I'm glad we don't have to go through that." Darcy responded.
"You're right, though I'm still a little sad that mother and father won't be coming over to spend Christmas with us."
"Well, there's not a lot we can do about that now. BUT, there is a bright side to this."
"What bright side could that be, and if you tell me the night sky or the stars I'm gunna punch you and enjoy it" Clair replied with a threatening tone.
"Well, since mother and father aren't here, what they don't know won't hurt them. Name something you've always wanted to do but couldn't because of mother and father."
"Oh, you're right Darcy. You're not my big brother for nothing I see. Hmm... welll, there IS one thing." Clair bit her lip at the thought of being so rebellious and defiant behind their parents backs.
"What is it you want to do?"
"It'll sound so silly and childish.." Clair stated, hesitantly.
"Oh, my specialty, go for it."
"Well, I've always wanted to hang around at home in nothing but an over sized T-shirt."
"Oh, is that all? Well... now's your chance."
"You won't mind?"
"It's not like you'll be naked. You'll be covered, barely, and you'll feel naughty and sexy for it."
Clair smiled and pranced towards her room before momentarily stopping, turning towards her now curious brother and saying "Darcy. It'll feel weird if I'm the only one prancing around in barely anything. Could you... do it with me?"
"I don't really have any big shirts like that though." Darcy noticed the disappointment on his sisters face and spoke up once more, "I suppose I could wear just my boxers for a little while." Clair's face lit up again and she rushed to her room. Meanwhile Darcy just stripped and put on a clean pair on boxers while he knew his sister was occupied. His package was out lined a little more than he'd like right now but he promised, so he was gunna follow through no matter what.
Darcy was now deciding on what to watch as Clair entered within sight range. She snuck up on him and gave a loving hug from behind. These two tended to like their Christmas movies and so chose to watch a movie called 'A Grandpa for Christmas'. Darcy let himself sink in to her arms.
"Hmmm... Your warmth on me feels nice." He commented to her.
"We're gunna need a blanket."
"Seems a little counter productive to deliberately prance around in almost nothing for the sake of teenage rebellion only to cover ourselves with a blanket, Clair."
"Well I still want to feel warm while I'm rebelling." Clair responded and stuck out her tongue. She picked up a long, navy blue blanket as thick as a human hand and pulled it over to the three seat wide couch and snuggled up to Darcy underneath it.
Darcy embraced Clair tightly, their bodies pressed in to each other once they were done fully covering themselves up to their necks with the blanket.
As they watched the movie Darcy fell into a rhythmic circling of a finger over Clair's right side hip. This relaxed her, but it also made her feel the tiniest bit naughty for allowing Darcy to continue this seemingly benign action. She leaned in to her older brother more fully and said to Darcy "It really does feel nice to snuggle like this."
