Summary: Written as a fill for space_wrapped . Prompt: Historical AU, Bones and Jim live in an apartment/flat/house together, as bachelors, and celebrate Christmas together. Mistletoe is used as a lucky charm that never works, until one winter, Bones meets a lady, and Jim realizes what he's about to lose. Good end for Bones and his lady? Or for our star-crossed lovers? (obviously paraphrased from the original prompt). Hope the OP likes it, Bones wanted to tell it.
