Jeremy wanders through the crowd, hating the press of bodies, the happy chatter. How can they all be so happy when Vicki is gone? He wonders where she is. If she's happy. With a sigh Jeremy finally slips into an empty room at the back of the house and leans on the wall with a sigh.

"Find your own hiding place, Gilbert" Tyler snarks from where he's sitting leaning against the wall.

Probably hoping not to be noticed. Jeremy thinks glaring at him.

"There is no other hiding place. Elena decided to use my bed to store coats, everyone has been

in and out all night." Jeremy snaps back.

"Sucks to be you." Tyler says smirking at him.

"What are you doing here, Lockwood? Don't you have some big fancy party you should be at?"

Jeremy mocks.

"Bite me, Gilbert. Elena invited half the town. Why don't you go complain to her? I have better things to do than listen to you whine." Tyler snaps back.

"Right, cause holding that wall up is so urgent." Jeremy taunts huffing a laugh.

"What's your problem Jeremy?" Tyler asks, jumping up and storming towards him.

"You're my problem, Tyler." Jeremy growls stepping away from the wall just in time for Tyler to slam him into the doorway.

"Always gotta be running your mouth, always gotta act like a little bitch." Tyler growls back, hands fisting in his shirt and shoving him harder into the door frame, eyes shooting daggers, nose nearly touching his.

Jeremy rolls his eyes as Tyler goes on about how annoying he is. God does he ever shut up?

Jeremy blinks once, twice, before a slow smirk tugs at his lips.

"Are you even listening to me, Gilbermph"

Jeremy's lips crashing into his cuts him off, his hand around the back of his neck pulls him closer, arm wrapping around his waist to keep him there. Tyler gives a small moan and kisses back, both of them fighting for dominance before Jeremy gives in with a long moan of pleasure.

He doesn't know how long they stand there, Tyler's hand buried in his hair, other hand roaming his body under his shirt. The thought of someone walking by and catching them adding an addictive thrill.

Jeremy pulls back, lips wet and kiss swollen, cock throbbing in his jeans. Licking his lips he stares into Tyler's wide eyes and smiles. Huffing a laugh when Tyler's eyes follow the movement, body swaying towards him. Jeremy arches an eyebrow and looks up, Tyler following his gaze. Jeremy smirks and walks away leaving Tyler staring open mouthed at the

mistletoe hanging in the doorway.
