THE8:
[00:01] In dreamland.
[07:21] Minghao wakes up first. It's Christmas and he wants to spend time with you and his family (but they are far away), but, he just finds that there's a lot on his mind. He opens a notebook and draws it out.
[07:56] When you wake up, it's to the scribbling of a pencil and light crumples of paper. Minghao was taking short glances of you. "What are you doing?" You ask, rubbing your eyes. He shows you his strange and unique drawing of you, sleeping. It doesn't quite look like you but it's beautiful in it's own way.
[09:21] "I almost forgot that it was Christmas," Minghao said. He wanted to watch you open the gifts he got for you first. All of the gifts he gave left you in awe and hugging him tightly; an abstract painting made by himself, artisté Minghao, self-care items, and a necklace chosen by his mother for you.
[09:30] Your gifts for him are simple, artistic tools for the artist, a new pair of glasses that stood out, and a new notebook with a cover that you made yourself with the ripped pieces of a newspaper, some stickers, and polaroids with the two of you. You want to apologize out of embarrassment, but Minghao lands a soft kiss on your cheek, making you shut up.
[10:12] You make him breakfast, one of his favorite Chinese dishes. You learned how to make the dish from his parents last year, for this special moment, to make it seem like he was at his home with his parents when he wasn't. He smiles with glee as he sees the dish and hugs you from behind as you cook it.
[11:07] Minghao wants to paint. The festive decorations and beauty of Christmas leaves his mind and hands inspired to lift the brush and stroke the canvas with color. To make use of your time, you follow him to the artistic room and both of you paint your own versions of Christmas with soft Christmas songs playing in the background.
[12:24] Minghao says to set the paintings near the wall, far away from the door, to dry. Minghao slips his hand on your waist and sniffs your hair out of habit as you two look at your paintings.
[14:46] With music playing in the background, Minghao takes a hold of your hand and brings you up. Your feet follow his as he guides you away from the couch to dance. You giggle at him and he smiles.
[16:13] "I'm going out for a late night walk," Minghao says. You warn him about the cold and kiss him goodbye as he takes his leave.
[16:27] While he's gone, you make dinner.
[18:33] After dinner and washing up, you both are ready for bed. Before sleeping though, Minghao reads a book. You ask him to read it out loud and he says he's not confident in that. You encourage him to and he gives in.
[20:21] Book night ends. You both fall asleep facing each other.

MINGYU:
[04:06] Mingyu wakes up because he forgot to wrap one more present for you. With his hair still messy and eyes hardly awake, he wraps the present, but manages to make it look neat.
[08:30] You both wake up at the same time. In this household, breakfast comes before presents, and Mingyu cannot wait to make a large meal. You follow him into the kitchen and attempt to help but end up in a starstruck daze while watching your boyfriend cook.
[10:01] Of course, your boyfriend's meals are the best! When you tell him that, he's happy, and laughs while saying jokingly, "I know, I know babe."
[11:00] He wants you to open his gifts for you first. You say that you want him to open your gifts. You both go at the same time, thanking each other in advance. He gives you some self care items, a new watch, and a new luxury bag. For him, he's stunned when he finds out you have him pots and pans. However, he gives out a hearty laugh as he opens up his other presents to find a laptop, a new camera, and the most beautiful knee-length coat he's ever seen.
[12:22] Mingyu wants to go see the lights. The Christmas lights that are shaped in a variety of Christmas things. He brings his new camera and when you ask him where the place was, he just simply says, "You'll see."
[13:11] Located in a section of an amusement park was where all the lights were. Walking hand in hand, your jaw nearly dropped when you saw the holiday lights, displaying Rudolph, a Christmas tree, Santa, presents, elves, etc. Mingyu, looked over at you with fond eyes and a beautiful smile, unable to contain it after seeing your smile.
[15:36] The last of the holiday lights photoshoot is a photo of you two kissing in front of the holiday lights Christmas tree of rainbow colors. He asks a stranger to take a picture, tells them how to use the camera, and the angle they should stand in. You were a bit embarrassed but Mingyu proceeded to kiss you sweetly. Well, the photo turned out magnificent.
[17:04] Dinner is at a fancy restaurant you made a reservation for on Christmas Eve. He hugs you, saying that you knew him best.
[18:06] When he washes up and comes out of the shower with his hair partially wet and a towel around his neck, you nearly faint. He laughs at you when you tell him this and to make it seemingly more sufferable for you, he leans in and gives you a passionate kiss.
[20:00] Watching a movie before bed. This turns out to be a bad idea because Mingyu wants more food. You tell him that it's okay and he makes some instant ramen.
[22:14] In bed, Mingyu becomes the smallest you've ever seen him. Sometimes, you wonder how someone as tall as him could fit so perfectly in your arms, which seems nearly impossible. 'He's cute,' your mind says, as you gently caress his hair as he sleeps.

DK:
[02:18] Sleeping.
[06:43] Seokmin wakes up early because he wants to cook. He has a recipe (from Baek Jong Won) and he wants to make it for you before you wake up.
[08:21] You end up waking too late and the food, soup, has grown lukewarm in the pot. Seokmin's head is resting on the countertop, sleeping, when you finally arrive in the kitchen. You rest your head in front of his and poke his cheeks. You startle him and he wakes up like he's seen a ghost. "You scared me!"
[09:10] Seokmin warms up the food and you hug him, grateful that he woke up early to make you food. After eating, you two head over to the Christmas tree that you two decorated together. Before you two could open the presents, his parents call and you guys video chat for a while.
[09:23] For Christmas, Seokmin gives you some winter gear, a beautiful handmade bracelet, and lots and lots of sweaters with cheesy words like "BELONGS TO DK". For his gift, you gave him self-painted in-ear monitors, a tiny charm for him to take everywhere, and some headbands "because I want you to wear them often, you look sexy wearing them." Seokmin laughs and promises he will wear them.
[10:03] After doing the dishes, Seokmin announces that he wants to try baking cookies. You're in right away and the two of you begin mixing.
[10:48] While waiting for the cookies to bake, you two watch a Korean drama. When Seokmin's alarm rings, you two jump.
[11:00] The cookies were good. They were so good, crispy and sweet, that you two brought the extras to the neighbors.
[13:02] After finishing 2 episodes of the Korean drama, you tell Seokmin that you're going outside to shovel the snow. He helps you put on the new winter gear he got for you and it turns out, he had a scarf, hat, and gloves that matched with yours. So, the two of you shovel snow in the driveway and sidewalk.
[13:37] Seokmin says he "accientally" threw the snow at you. You don't let that slide and you two end up wrestling in the snow. Snow sneaks into your shirts and pants and you two end up making snow angels side by side.
[14:56] You make warm hot cocoa for your boyfriend and Seokmin shares a story of when he was young as you two cuddle on the couch while wearing a blanket. You share a few stories as well and the two of you share laughs.
[16:35] Seokmin suddenly thanks you for the presents you gave him. It was really out of the blue, like, he just said it suddenly while passing by. You decide to thank him too.
[18:10] Seokmin wants to go to bed. Well, he just wants to stay in bed with you and cuddle. The two of you share videos and posts with each other, take a few pictures, and tickle each other a little too.
[19:16] Sleep.

SEUNGKWAN:
[01:16] He has a dream about CARATS.
[07:30] Seungkwan wakes up at the usual time he does. It doesn't matter whether or not he's on break. He gets up, out of bed, and takes care of himself. When he's done washing his face, he comes to wake you up too. "Hey, honey, it's christmas," He says while shaking you awake with a kiss on your forehead.
[08:00] Seungkwan bets that you'll like his gifts: some skincare items, new shoes, and a shiny necklace with your name on it. You do, and you thank him for his generous gifts while asking him to help you put on the necklace.
[08:08] Seungkwan's giddy when he finds out you got him a workout machine but he's also dumbfounded that he didn't realize it was already in the workout room; it was delivered a few days early. You had also gotten him his favorite Wonder Girls album. It took a lot of scavenging. He keeps saying "thank you".
[10:02] Breakfast is at his parents' house. His mother invited you two early that morning to come over for a Christmas family dinner. You play with Bookkeu a little and have a nice conversation with Seungkwan's sisters. Eventually, everyone is around the table exchanging gifts.
[11:43] It's like a party almost. Seungkwan and his sisters are singing Christmas carols with his parents dancing or bopping in the back with you.
[12:56] On the drive back home, Seungkwan says that he burned off way too many calories dancing and singing. You laugh at him and offer to take him to the park, where the food stands were. A lot of food stands are out in the winter, but some do linger in hopes of drawing hungry people. Eating some tteok and fish cake on a stick while sitting in the park is kind of calming.
[14:22] "I regret eating so much today," Seungkwan whines, but then he remembers the gift you got him, and says he's now excited to use the machine. When you two get home, you work out with him, but it's no easy journey.
[16:01] You praise Seungkwan for his consistency. He says that if anything, he's not consistent. You help him wipe his sweat and tell him to go take a shower.
[17:02] You're watching a movie. At this point, both of you have showered. Seungkwan's warming up his vocal chords, ready to sing a song. You don't mind him being loud but sometimes, he does try to hit high notes while sitting next to you on the couch. There's only one way to stop him; kiss him. Mwah. He's flustered and blushes.
[19:32] You tell Seungkwan that he needs his beauty sleep so he should get off his phone and cuddle with you. He laughs. "You just want me to hold you, huh? What are you, a baby? Come here, my baby."
[19:37] He kisses your head as you drift asleep.
---------------
VERNON:
[02:18] Snoring.
[09:12] He's awake. Vernon is awake. He doesn't move though. He just stares at the ceiling for a good while. Your arms are around him too. He doesn't know if he should move.
[09:28] Vernon's out of bed but that wakes you up. He says sorry for waking you up but you shake your head, implying that it was okay. "Well... I'm going to the bathroom. Merry Christmas, babe."
[09:30] He's blasting hip hop music as he washes his face.
[09:45] The presents under the tree are wrapped in a rather tidy fashion. Vernon chose rather abstract wrapping paper but him being an alien just made you more attracted to him. He got you some clothing, a super cute cat plushie, and a blanket. He says that he's sorry because he didn't know what to get. You thank him and say truthfully while wrapping him in a hug, "No, everything is so lovely! Thank you, Vernon!"
[09:52] Vernon gave the best reaction when he saw that you gave him a new pair of headphones, beanies and glasses, and a robot vacuum. He says he's always wanted to own one but never got to it. "Thanks so much. Um, I'll name the robot vacuum Bob."
[11:16] Brunch is a quick meal from McDonald's.
[13:56] On Christmas, a date to the movie theater sounded great, so Vernon bought tickets to the latest Marvel movie in theaters. Although it's Christmas, he finds that you two don't have to watch a Christmas movie. With popcorn and soda on the side, you two enjoy the film.
[16:38] The movie ends and Vernon is busy already talking about the things he loved about the movie. You love listening to his excited talk. You two continue this way to the car.
[17:07] "I want to try turning on Bob," Vernon says as he reads the manual for the robot vacuum. You watch from the couch. You are laying on your stomach, your hands under your chin. You can't help but think out loud how handsome your boyfriend is. He chuckles shyly.
[18:08] Talking around the fireplace is fun, calming, and serious. You two are sitting together and he caresses your hands affectionately. It's a strange but loving sight.
[19:18] "Want to play some board games?" You suggested. On the coffee table in the living room, you two play some card games and then continue on to play a few games of Sequence and Guess Who.
[20:02] After boosting hygiene, you two don't go to bed, but linger around the living room, watching yet another movie. This time, Vernon decides that it should be a Christmas one. You don't mind.
[21:13] The movie isn't done yet but you're sleeping, with your head on Vernon's shoulder. He smiles and continued watching the movie. You two are holding hands. He throws a blanket over you and brings your hand to his lips, where he lays a soft peck.
[21:46] The movie finishes and Vernon takes you to bed.

DINO:
[02:11] Now, this is when Chan decides he goes to bed. You fell asleep at 7 p.m. on Christmas Eve.
[10:01] You're awake first but it seems like the moment you got out of bed, Chan awoke as well. He asks you where you were going in a panicked manner that seemed like he assumed you were running away. "The bathroom, Chan."
[10:16] Presents are being opened! On this merry day, you want to open at the exact same time as Chan. When he sees the jacket he was looking at the other day and the pair of shoes he had his hands on earlier, his heart melts. Chan immediately, after seeing the gifts, takes your face in his hands and kisses you before you can even see his gift.
[10:21] Chan says that the SEVENTEEN album he got for you was not the only gift; there were gifts for you not under the Christmas tree. Chan grabs your hand and takes you to the garage, where a rose petal trail led the way. Already, you were in awe. When the garage doors opened, you covered your mouth in fascination and excitement. Your heart was melting.
[10:27] The garage was decorated with fancy lights and printed pictures of you and him. "Here," Chan says, dropping down on one knee. He brings a box out of his pockets and opens it slowly, revealing earrings that looks similar but unique. "This is for you and me. Wear it and we'll be together all the time."
[11:10] You keep telling Chan how you're not over the fake but sweet and heartwarming proposal. The earring is clipped on your ear and Chan has the other half on his ear. Chan laughs off your compliments and says that he'll cook his special egg dish for breakfast.
[13:26] A trip to work on Christmas? No, not really. Playing at work on Christmas? Yes, maybe. Chan takes you to the practice room and the two of you have a dance off and learn one of his new choreos together. Not to mention, you two also sing karaoke!
[14:13] The festival in the practice room comes to an end and you go to the store to buy some sweets while Chan stays in the car talking to his members. When you come back to the car, the two of you decide to eat a few of the donuts and cookies.
[16:21] Chan plays music in the house and while you cook dinner, he talks with you while sitting on the counter. At times, he does something a little mischievous, like stealing the spoon you were using or hiding the vegetables you need.
[19:21] After eating dinner, taking showers, and doing skincare routines, the rest of the day could be spent in bed. The merry day is done and here comes the merry night. Chan keeps pecking your cheek as you lay on your side, watching your phone, making you giggle.
[20:17] He falls asleep first being little spoon.
