Stigma Love's Algorithm [ A BTS x Reader Poly ]

Chapter 66: A House, A Home, A Promise 🔥

I lean forward, grinning as Yoongi reaches into his coat and pulls out a small wrapped box, sliding it across the table.

Tae eyes us all warily. "What's this?"

"Open it," Yoongi says, smiling softly.

Tae peels back the paper, revealing a card inside. He furrows his brows as he reads aloud:

"'Merry early Christmas. Pack your bags, baby. We're spending the holidays together at Jin-hyung's ski resort.'"

His eyes go wide.

"Wait-what?"

Oppa is practically vibrating. "We will have the whole lodge just for us. Fireplaces, hot springs, snow-covered cabins-the works."

Namjoon adds, "We've been planning it for days. Yoongi hyung, Jin hyung, Y/N noona, and I are all in on it."

Tae's jaw drops. "You guys-! Why didn't you tell me sooner?!"

Yoongi grins. "Because it's your surprise."

Tae's eyes dart to me, then to each of them, glassy with emotion. "You're serious?"

"Dead serious," Jin says. "It's all booked. We leave in 2 weeks."

Tae looks like he might actually cry. Instead, he scoops Yeontan into his arms and hugs him tight, grinning like a kid on Christmas morning. "Oh my god, I love you guys."

Yoongi smirks. "We know."

Taehyung pulls me into his side, kissing my hair. "This is the best surprise ever."

Namjoon teases, "You're going to owe us when we're all snowed in together."

"Worth it." Tae smiles so wide it makes my chest ache. "I can't wait."

"Better start working on your snowball dodging skills," Yoongi adds. "Jin hyung's ruthless."

"Hey!" Jin protests, while Namjoon and I laugh.

We spend the next half hour eating, bantering, and making plans for the trip-discussing snowman-building contests and whether Taehyung will survive Yoongi's infamous hot chocolate spiked with whiskey.

Eventually, Yoongi checks his watch. "Alright, it's almost eight. We should head back to get ready for work."

"Agreed," Namjoon says. "I've got meetings."

Tae sighs dramatically. "I don't want to goooo."

Yoongi chuckles. "Neither do I, but capitalism calls."

Jin oppa stretches, standing up. "We'll all go back to our places, then regroup tonight after work as usual."

Yoongi turns to Tae and me. "I'll pick you both up in 30 mins, alright?"

I nod. "Sounds perfect."

As we head toward the door, Yoongi lingers by me, reaching out to cup my cheek before leaning in for a soft kiss.

It's gentle but grounding, stealing the breath from my lungs.

When he pulls away, he presses a kiss to Tae's forehead. "You two better be ready."

Tae melts. "Yes, hyung."

Jin oppa follows, ruffling my hair before kissing my temple. "Good job surviving last night."

Then he presses a kiss to Tae's other temple. "And you. No more sugar daddy antics without a heads-up."

Namjoon grins as he leans in, pressing a sweet kiss to the crown of both our heads. "I'll bring hot cocoa and tea next time."
