I can see it now. Doug will buy him and Ste matching reindeer jumpers and Ste will have an epithany, he doesn't even like knitwear! Cue Doug!Tears and Ethan's timely return and Ste running out into the cold snow looking for Brendan who's been messed up down to something Walker has done. Ste finds him lying bleeding on the ground, he scoops him into his arms, mistletoe sparkling overheard.
"Stephen...oi love ye. That jumper is appalling though" in his raspy voice.
"You'd better take it off then" Ste chimes, donkey laugh vibrating throughout the village.
And then they kiss sweetly, and then get a bit too handsy and Brendan finds the strength to stand and Ste throws his arm around his waist and half carries him home with his new lovely arms. They lay together in Brendan's room, the christmas socks Brendan secretely bought for him clutched in Ste's dear manly hands. They weep, we weep, and then they shag. Socks on
