Why this must be read: The Due South Seekrit Santa Archive is a wonderful place to browse when you want to spend a few hours reading fic. I never visit without reading this story. Zillah is an amazing author who has be recced here before. This story is a little lighter in tone than some of her other stories. It is also a great example of one of my favorite Due South fic cliches which is everyone realizing Fraser and Ray are in a relationship before they do. I love seeing the little glimpses of the life they've built together. It's so incredibility obvious to everyone but them that their feelings for each other go beyond friendship. What really makes this story stand out for me if the simplicity and beauty of the moment when they finally realize they both want more.

"Another one?" asked Fraser, plucking the envelope from the counter.

"Seems like it. I don't really know where they got the idea we were gay" Ray said absently as he opened his credit card bill. He scowled. "Diefenbaker!"

"What did he do now?"

"Did you order stuff from Omaha Steaks?" asked Ray. "Because I didn't and if you didn't, then he did it."

Fraser turned to look at Diefenbaker who was trying to hide his head under the sofa cushion. "Where are the steaks, Dief?"
