Chuck hasn't noticed anything off. Sure, Raleigh can be pissy and he can be petty and borderline jealous--of his own brother, which Chuck hadn't thought had been a problem for a while now--but he's thought everything was going well. He was happy, with the Beckets, and he thought they both are too.
He comes in with both of them, and it hadn't been a conscious decision to kiss Yancy first under the mistletoe, but the older brother had reached for him first so he'd gone with it.
He pulls away from Yancy with a lazy smile and turns for Raleigh only to find the second Becket gone. There's an uneasy pang and on any other night he'd shrug and let him cool off before looking for him, but...Chuck squeezes Yancy's hand and lets go to go find him. It's easy, he just follows the trail of confused people who were pushed out of the way.
"Hey," he says, stepping out on the balcony. "We missed you at the mistletoe."
