   Summary

   Lando, chronic overthinker and first-time runaway, has no cash and needs a room; Carlos, Christmas-decoration-addictee and owner of the small London hotel 'Cozy Corner', has an empty room and needs an employee for the festive season.

   What looks like a perfect match soon proves to be more complicated than they thought: Lando can't stand Christmas, Carlos can't stand Lando, and the secret Lando's so keen on keeping might not stand a chance much longer either if Carlos keeps looking at him like this ...

   Or: Lando joins the Christmas-manic staff of one London hotel and falls in love with its owner - what could go wrong?
   (Spoiler: A lot.)

   [This story will be posted as an advent calendar. New chapter uploaded every day until December 24th. Happy Christmas season!]
