Fics like last christmas

Belly jumped into his arms and Conrad hugged her back as tightly as he always did when he hadn’t seen her for a while, leaning down and lifting her off her feet. Belly squealed into his shoulders. It was always like this when they saw each other again. They melted into each other. Years of friendship, and Belly learned to embrace her relationship with Conrad for what it was. And it was beautiful. It was right. It was everything. It was enough. It had to be. Conrad rarely said things he didn’t mean. When he did, he owned up to it. The anger he felt towards his mother’s death, the resentment he held for his father, the impossible standards he tried to live by… it all had faded away over the years. Became a quiet hum he could control. Which was why Belly had no reason but to believe what he said that night years ago was true—that he didn’t want to fall in love, didn’t believe in it, wasn’t yearning for it. . an au where belly and conrad are best friends whose relationship is defined by christmases - belly’s a romantic, conrad doesn’t want to fall in love, and last christmas they got drunk and slept together
