And just like with Handong, obviously I wouldn't let Siyeon without a special Christmas chapter of her own. This one was written over a draft that I had and never finished, until now
Hope you guys like and Merry (late) Christmas :)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
December arrived and with that your girlfriend, Lee Siyeon's favorite time of the year, the end of the year holidays, mainly Christmas. Siyeon woke up about nine o'clock, just so she could surprise you.
Siyeon's POV:
Once I finished making our breakfast, I look at the time and it's already ten o'clock, so I head back to the room, where I find Y/n still asleep. As much as it breaks my heart to wake up the angelic figure sleeping before my eyes, I have to, so we can enjoy this special day. And with such thought, I walk to the bed and sit at the end of it, while I start to whisper, calling for Y/n:
– Baby.
– Hm?
Siyeon: Wake up, baby. It's finally Christmas and I don't want you to waste the day, sleeping till later noon, you sleepy head.
And once he hears my words, Y/n lazily gets himself up, sitting on the bed. He then stretches and scratches his eyes. He's such a baby and a very cute one. Impossible not to fall in love with... Once he's finished, he asks:
– Noona, what time is it?
Siyeon: About ten o'clock, why?
– Just wanted to know. But ten o'clock, already? Shit.
Siyeon: Uhum. I made breakfast for us, so shall we?
– Sure thing. Ugh, crap.
Siyeon: Everything okay, Y/n?
– Yeah, it's just that. I didn't sleep well last night, had a bad dream.
Siyeon: I'm sorry, baby. Well then, let's cheer the mood up with a delicious breakfast, followed by present exchanging. What do you think about that?
– Sounds delightful. Even after three years since we met, you still haven't changed, have ya, noona?
Siyeon: No and I will never do so.
– And that's why I love you so much.
Y/n then leans forward, stealing a kiss. Once we pull our lips apart, he finally gets up from bed, with both of us heading to the kitchen.
Three years ago...
Narrator:
It was five thirty in the afternoon and like always, Siyeon was working as a barista at a nightclub downtown. As she was distracted, cleaning the cups, her best friend Lee Gahyeon comes in.
Gahyeon: Hi, unnnie.
Siyeon: Hey, Gahyeon.
Gaheyon: So, I came to check if you changed your mind about the Christmas light show.
Siyeon: Of course not! I really want to watch this year's show. People are saying that it's gonna mix the light show with fireworks and some other stuff.
Gahyeon: I know, right? But why are you working, tho? It's Christmas Eve.
Siyeon: Don't have to remember me about it. Who the hell's coming to a nightclub at Christmas Eve? Especially at a nightclub that's not gonna host a party.
Gahyeon: Hold on, there isn't gonna be party?
Siyeon: No. The boss only opened the place, so people could get their asses drunk, but as you can see, not a damn soul is here. Plus, you're literally the fifth person that came in here, today and it's only cuz I work here. If it wasn't for that matter, you wouldn't even have showed up. Do you want something, by the way?
Gahyeon: A martini.
Siyeon: Okay.
Siyeon's POV:
Once Gahyeon answers, I quickly make her the asked drink, giving it to her, instants later. Due to the boredom of having to take care of an empty club on a Christmas Eve, me and Gahyeon start talking about random stuff, to kill some time. As we were chatting, a guy walks in the club and sits at one of the tables. As I kept my attention on him, I could hear him constantly sighing, while looking at his phone. He looks kinda anxious, nervous, maybe? Have been almost an hour since he arrived, he finally leaves the table and comes towards the bar, asking:
– A whiskey, please.
Siyeon: Sure thing.
Just like with Gahyeon, I quickly make the asked drink, giving it to him, instants later. He then chugs the whiskey and asks for another cup. Okay... As I refill his cup, he goes back to where he was sit, before, with the cup in hands. About ten minutes later, as I was distracted with the boy that I observed, Gahyeon calls for me, saying:
– Gotta, go, unnie. Remember, eight o'clock at the light show.
Siyeon: Yeah, I know.
Gahyeon: See you later.
Siyeon: See ya.
And as she gets up from her seat, walking towards the exit, Gahyeon discretely looks at the boy, giving me a thumbs up, right after. Freaking pabo. Once she finally leaves the club, I'm back at my bored state, once again, crap. About ten minutes later, the boy looks at his cellphone and sighs, one more time, before finally leaving the club. That was peculiar...
Another ten minutes go by, finally being seven o'clock. It's time to close this ghost club. Once I pick my things up, I leave the nightclub, exiting from the back door. As I was walking towards a more illuminated area, I hear a couple of screaming voices, sounding like an argument, so I start to walk around the block, looking for the possible fight. Instants later, I find myself two buildings ahead, in an alley, with a couple and that guy from the bar, arguing.
(Scoffing) – So, you are cheating on me, huh?
Eun-Hee: Honestly, what did you expect, Y/n? Our parents might be friends and all, but we both know you're just a gold digging piece of shit, who's after my family's money.
– I knew you were dumb, but damn, I didn't expect you were this dumb.
Eun-Hee's lover: Hey, watch your mouth, asshole!
– Stay out of this, muscle brain!
And as the boy says such sentence, the bigger guy gives him a right hook, knocking him down. As I witness the scene, I run towards the boy from the club, helping him stand up, while asking:
– Oh my goodness, are you okay?!
– Yeah, sure. Fuck.
Eun-Hee's lover: Stay out of this, you little whore!
And as the cheater's lover was about to hit me, the boy gets in front of me, holding his punch, while saying:
– You were seriously about to hit a girl? Don't you have any self-respect? What a guy you found, Eun-Hee.
The boy then pushes back the bigger guy's arm and once he does that, the guy says:
– Let's get outta here, babe.
Eun-Hee: Sure thing.
– Just to be clear, I'll never see you again, right?
Siyeon: Shut up, you dumbass! Are you trying to get yourself killed?!
Eun-Hee's lover: You should listen to her, Y/n. Apparently, she's smarter than you. Not that it's very difficult to be such thing.
And once the couple walks away, the boy flips them the middle finger behind their back. Once they're gone, he leans at the wall, sliding himself down, until he's on the ground. As he's on the floor, he lets out a long and deep sigh, while scratching the back of his head. As I notice that he seem to have calmed himself down a bit more, I ask him:
– Hey, buddy. Are you okay?
– Yeah, I am. No worries.
Siyeon: Are you sure, cuz that was one hell of hook you took.
(Chuckling) – Honestly, I've been through worse.
Siyeon (chuckling): If you say so.
– Not that I don't appreciate your help, but why did you help me?
Siyeon: I heard some screaming and arguing, so I followed the sound, until I found myself in this alley, seeing you and your two friends, there. But then, when the guy hit you, something struck me, making me want to come help you.
– Got it. Well, thanks for it. If it wasn't for you, I'd probably be dead, now.
Siyeon: Considering the way you acted, you sure would be.
(Chuckling) – Yeah, maybe. So, what's your name?
Siyeon: Siyeon, Lee Siyeon. And yours?
– Y/n, Kwon Y/n.
Siyeon: Nice to meet you, Y/n.
– Nice to meet you, too Siyeon.
Siyeon: So, what was this whole thing about?
– Well, have you ever watched those movies where two rich families basically arrange their kids' future, with a ready wedding and all that crap? Well, that was basically the situation, except that she's the only rich one of this story.
Siyeon: Hold on. You were in an arranged relationship?!
– Basically, yeah. My parents unintentionally forced me to, saying she was such a nice girl that we make such a cute couple and all that bullshit. But as you saw, she was nothing but a cheating whore, not that I care, honestly. I've been wanting to get rid of her for a while, now. Just needed a reason. I mean, I knew she was cheating on me-
Siyeon: You better not say that you were doing the same!
– Calm down, I wasn't.
Siyeon: Better not.
(Chuckling) – Anyway, thanks for the help. See you around, Siyeon.
Y/n then gets himself up and start walking away of the alley. With an unknown urge, I call him, making him look back at me:
– Y/n, wait.
– Hm? What is it?
Siyeon: I know I'm taking a long shot, here, but do you wanna go out with me? Like, at this very instant? The thing is, I'm going downtown to see the Christmas light show with a friend of mine, that girl that was on the club with me, at the booth, don't know if you noticed.
– The one that overlooked me and gave you a thumbs up? Yeah, I saw her.
Siyeon (chuckling): Shit, you saw that?
(Chuckling) – Yeah, did.
Siyeon: Anyway! After what happened, I think it'll be nice for you, you know? For you to let go of that stress.
– Well, I'd love to.
Siyeon: That's great...
Your POV:
After her answer, we both walk out of the alley, with Siyeon calling an Uber for us and as the car arrives, we finally head downtown.
About half an hour later, we arrive at a park, where the decorations were set. We then start to walk around, looking for Siyeon's friend and moments later, we see the girl from afar and once she sees us, Siyeon drags me towards her.
Siyeon: Hey, Gahyeon.
Gahyeon: Hey, unnie. Isn't he the boy fr-
Siyeon: The boy from the nightclub, yeah it's him.
– Hi, I'm Y/n.
Gahyeon: I'm Gahyeon. Hey, you got a cut on your lip.
– Well, that explains the stinging sensation.
Gahyeon: What happened?
Siyeon: He got a right hook.
Gahyeon: Are you okay, then?!
Siyeon: He's fine.
– Yeah, I am. No worries.
Gahyeon: If you two say so. Anyway. So, Y/n, what lame pick up line did unnie use to convince you to come?
– None. I just had a rough start of a night, the reason I got the right hook, so Siyeon invited me to come along to stress out. Hope it's okay, by the way.
Gahyeon: I see. And about you coming with us, it's okay.
Siyeon: So, now that we all had brief introductions of each other, shall we go watch the light show?
Gahyeon: Let's go!
– Sure thing!
Narrator:
The three of you then join the crowd, getting yourselves as much as you could in the front and a few minutes later, the light show finally starts. Moments into it, as you were marveled by the lights, you say:
– Wow, look at all these colors! Now I know why you two wanted to watch this show, so much.
Gahyeon: Every year, me and unnie wait excitedly to watch this light show.
Siyeon: But we always come by ourselves, so it's nice to have a different company, this time...
Once Siyeon says such sentence, she grabs your arms and wraps them around her waist. You look down at her and you notice her blushing state, but you were also blushing, as much as she was. Even with the nervousness, Siyeon simply smiles at you, so you shyly smile back at her. As subtle as you two were, this small affection display towards each other didn't go unnoticed by Gahyeon that grins and moments later, says:
– So, since this is the first time I come with someone else other than Siyeon-ssi, I thought it'd be nice to register the moment. Join in, you two.
The three of you get closer together, and then Gahyeon takes the picture, with the illuminated background. Once she checks the picture, she says:
– Perfect.
Siyeon: Send it to me, later.
Gahyeon: Sure thing, unnie.
After this moment, the three of you keep watching the light show, for another twenty minutes. Once it's finished, you leave the crowd and since it was still early, the three of you start walking around. During the walk, Gahyeon purposely stayed a few steps behind the two of you, letting you both talk with each other.
For seeing how different and happy her unnie was, Gahyeon wished for the two of you to stop under a mistletoe, just like in Christmas romance movies she's used to watch at this time of the year. And luckily, her wish was granted, when the two of you were passing by a gazebo, decorated with Christmas lights with a mistletoe hanging above the entrance. Gahyeon that noticed the little decoration piece, call for the two of you, saying:
– Hey guys, look up.
And as both of you look above yourselves, you finally notice the decoration piece, while Gahyeon says:
– I suppose you guys know the tradition, right?
Siyeon: I do...
– So do I...
Gahyeon: Well, then you know what to do.
Siyeon (sighing): Is it okay...?
– It is...
And as you answer, Siyeon gently pulls you in for a kiss, wrapping her arms around your neck, while you place your hands on her waist. You then share a deep and passionate kiss, only pulling apart when the lack of oxygen hits both of you. As you two pull your lips apart, without releasing the grip on each other, you mutter:
– This was...
Siyeon: Good...
– Yeah... It was- It was good...
After a few moments of a weird silence, you and Siyeon finally leave the gazebo, while Gahyeon squeals over what she witnessed, saying:
– That was so cute!
Siyeon: Forget what you just saw and let's get outta here.
Gahyeon: Meanie.
The three of you then leave the light show area, going to where you and Siyeon were dropped off by the Uber. Once you get to there, Gahyeon says:
– Well, this was fun and all, but I gotta go home and prep myself for Christmas, tomorrow. Enjoy the night, lovey doveys.
And once you both heard such sentence, both of your faces turned red, while Siyeon wanted to strangle Gahyeon for saying stuff like that, since she showed up with you by her side. As the younger Lee finally left, Siyeon turns to you, saying:
– You want me to accompany you home or-?
– I was about to ask you the same thing.
Siyeon: Oh, uh...
– Let's go to your place, first. Make sure you get home, safe...
Siyeon: Okay...
After she answers, Siyeon calls an Uber for you both and as the car arrives, you two head to her place. Your mind was crowded with everything that happened this night, from meeting Siyeon to kissing her due to a silly tradition and as you think about that tender moment you both shared, you can't help but smile. Being lost in these thoughts, you don't realize that you were already at Siyeon's house, coming back to reality as she calls your name a few times.
– Hm? What?
Siyeon: We're home, Y/n.
– Oh, okay.
Siyeon: C'mon.
You two leave the car, heading to the Lee's house. Once you're right in front of it, Siyeon takes out her keys, opening the door, and after opened, she says:
– Thanks for coming with me.
– It's the least I could do. Well, I'll be heading out, now. See you around, Siyeon.
And as you were about to leave, Siyeon grabs you by the wrist, making you look back at her.
– Uh... Siyeon?
Siyeon: I know we just met, but what do you think about spending the night over? I think after what you went through, earlier, you shouldn't spend the rest of the night, alone. Plus, it's Christmas Eve and I think no one should be alone at Christmas Eve. Anyway, what do you say?
– I'd love to...
Siyeon: Good...
You then walk back towards Siyeon, gently pulling her by the waist, making your lips meet, once again that night. The next day, Gahyeon that until the moment was sleeping peacefully, is woken up by the ringing and buzzing of her cellphone. As she picks the device up, she opens the message that was sent by Siyeon, which had a picture of both of you, with you still sleeping, attached, with the written message:
– I hate you.
Gahyeon laughs at her unnie's message, quickly replying to her:
– I'm so glad you ended the night together. I saw how comfortable you were around him.
Siyeon (through her phone): Whatever.
Siyeon's POV:
Once I'm finished talking with Gahyeon, I put my cellphone back on the nightstand. About ten minutes go by and Y/n slowly starts to wake up. Bit by bit, as he awakens, Y/n slightly lifts himself, while saying:
– Good morning ...
Siyeon: Good morning, Y/n...
– So, this really happened, huh?
Siyeon: Yep, it did.
We then exchange glances, while slowly start to approach our faces. Finally our lips press against each other's, sending an ecstatic feeling to my brain. Moments later, once we pull apart, remembering what day it is, I tell Y/n:
– Merry Christmas, by the way.
– Merry Christmas to you, too, Siyeon-ah.
Once Y/n reciprocates my wishes, I give him a quick peck on the lips, getting out of the bed, pulling him to the kitchen.
Present day...
Narrator:
As you two get there, you see the table set, having French toast, eggs and bacon, some fruits, pancake and even waffles. Surprised to see the table so full, you turn to Siyeon, asking:
– Are we having guests over and I'm not aware of it?
Siyeon: Of course not, pabo. I just wanted to make something nice to start our Christmas, nicely.
– You're so damn perfect.
Siyeon: I know. So, shall we?
– Let's go!
The two of you then sit at the table, fixing your plates, starting to eat them, right after. As you were eating, in a comfortable silence, you break it, saying:
– About the dream I had, it was about the day we met...
Siyeon: Oh... Wait, you said it was a bad dream...
– It's not what it sounds like. Well, it mostly was a bad dream, indeed, but it ended when you showed up... With you having that angelical aura, just like at the night we first met...
Siyeon: Y/n...
– For a guy who loves romantic comedy movies, I'd say that we had the most cliché, yet the greatest beginning of a love story that a couple could ever have.
Siyeon: I couldn't agree more...
Siyeon then leans forward, stealing a kiss. She then proceeds to gently grab your hand, slowly rubbing her thumb on the back of your knuckle. About half an hour later, as you two finish the morning meal, Siyeon drags you to the living room, for the both of you to exchange presents. You both sit near the Christmas tree, with Siyeon reaching for your present, preceding to hand it to you.
Siyeon: Here, baby.
– Thanks, noona.
You then start unwrapping Siyeon's present and moments later, you have in hands something you've been not only wanting, but also needing for a while now.
– Skull Candy headphones?! Are you serious?!
(A/N: These pictures were taken in 2018, with my old cellphone and I also didn't realize back then how shaky the pic of the box was, so sorry about it)
Siyeon: Uhum. I know you've been wanting for a while. Merry Christmas, Y/n.
– Damn, I love you so much.
Siyeon: I love you, too, Y/n-ah.
You then pull her in for a hug and peck Siyeon's lips, getting a blushed reaction from her. After both of you share this tender moment, you reach for your present, handing it to Siyeon. She starts unwrapping the present and moments later, she has in hands a flat box. Once she takes the lid of it, Siyeon takes out the content in it. As she was analyzing the present, you say:
– I know you're not the type of girl to wear dresses, but when I saw this white dress, I thought it'd look nice on you, so I bought it.
About thirty seconds has passed and you don't hear a word from Siyeon, getting you worried, making you think you screwed up on the gift you bought her. Or that's what you thought, because suddenly, you feel Siyeon's lips press against yours. A few instants later, she slowly starts pulling away, as she says:
– I loved it. It's very beautiful.
– I bet it'll look even more beautiful in you. Merry Christmas, Siyeon-ah.
Siyeon (blushing): Well, let's check that, now.
Siyeon then gets up and goes to her room and minutes later she comes back, wearing the dress.
Siyeon: So, what do you think?
– Whoa. You're looking like a freaking goddess. Even Aphrodite couldn't compare to you.
Siyeon (blushing): Thanks, Y/n.
Siyeon then goes back to her room, taking out the dress, coming back to the living room, moments later, with a blanket. Once you're finished with the gift exchanging, Siyeon drags you to the couch, putting something for the both of you to watch, and then covering you both with the blanket.
– So, what are we watching?
Siyeon: Hope you don't mind having a Christmas marathon.
– Not at all.
Siyeon then grabs your arm and wraps it around herself, while resting her head on your shoulder. Once she gets herself comfortable, snuggling into you, she looks up and after you exchange glances, you proceed to kiss the top of her head. And that's how the two of you spend the day, cuddling with each other, while watching Christmas movies. A perfect Christmas day, if you had to say.
