X-Men
Logan
"God, this is getting me sick."
"C'mon, don't be such an edgelord."
Y/N really wants to spend his Christmas with his boyfriend, Logan. But Logan being Logan, he tries to sound standoff-ish and sound like he doesn't care, but his boyfriend knows he has a heart. Now to figure out how to make him open up.
"Don't you love it all? The decorations, the warm feeling-"
"The annoying commercials. Mariah All-I-Want-For-Christmas 24/7 on the radio." Logan continues Y/N's checklist, even though it isn't on his.
"Besides all THOSE parts, you got to admit, it's amazing." Y/N insists his opinion. "Did you got any bad memories of the holidays or something?"
"Nope. In fact, I don't have any memories." Logan responds. He walks towards the kitchen, with Y/N following him. In there, he grabs a beer from the fridge. "This is my first Christmas with my new memories."
"Oh..." Y/N awkwardly responds. Though his eyes lighting ups as he gets a brilliant idea. "Oh! That's perfect!"
As Logan opens the beer, he merely looks confused at his partner. "You're the first one to think my amnesia is perfect."
"I didn't meant it like that." Y/N corrects him. "But this is a perfect opportunity. You get to celebrate your first Christmas and we can make it perfect. Oh, I need to plan it immediately!"
Y/N is quick to walk away out of the room, making Logan wonder what's going to happen with his first Christmas as he drinks.
Days later, and the special day has finally arrived. Logan can't help but wonder what Y/N is planning. And so, once he gets back to their apartment, he's instantly greeted by the holiday. Decorations everywhere. The smell of food. Presents underneath the Christmas tree. Logan can't help but wonder how long Y/N manage to fix this, especially since most of it wasn't there before he left this morning.
"I'm back, but it turns out I got home at the family 'Crazy holiday freak.'" Logan says through the entry way.
Y/N sprints towards the entrance with a wide smile. Even his outfit is Christmas themed. "Merry Christmas!" He grabs a present from the table and hand it over with excitement. "Here, your very first Christmas gift."
Logan wonders what it is, but he got red flags. Still, he opens it and discover it's an ugly Christmas sweater. With a deadpanned look, he shows off the sweater to the very happy Y/N. "Put it on! You're going to look so great!"
"I doubt that..." Still, Logan complies and put on the sweater. Although not being so happy with it, his boyfriend is, so he doesn't make a fuss about it.
"You look amazing." Y/N walks over to him to grab his hand. That's when he leads him to one room to another, starting first by the living room. "I got you tons of present. Some good ones, some really good ones. Of course, I set them by the tree. We, of course, are going to watch the classic Christmas films. Home Alone, the first two movies because I refuse the other ones were made. The nightmare before Christmas. The Polar Express. ...And the rest I forgot."
"That's going to be a long 8 hours..." Logan mutters.
Y/N then leads to the kitchen. "I made lots of cookies, gingerbread men. I also made eggnogs, some beef, sweet potatoes-"
"And that's going to be a long 2 hours on the toilet..."
After Y/N ranting, he leads to him to the bedroom, to see rose petals on the bed. Something more romantic that Logan didn't expect. "And then we finish this holiday by doing something more romantic."
"That I can dig." Logan smirks. He looks next to him. "Any reason why you do this today?"
Seeing him smirk, Logan knows he's going to like the last present. "Well... let's just say I got us some 'special' Christmas outfits you're going to like."
"You know what? I think I'm getting around the idea of Christmas."
Scott
It's the Christmas gala at the Xavier Institute. About all of the students are enjoying the night, whether that's dancing with friends or partners, chatting with classmates, eating and drinking the food. Of course, it's not the students who are there. The teachers, who has now the roles as chaperones. One of these teachers is Scott, who is observing the students while keeping his upset thoughts away. To his dismay, Logan comes to pester him.
"This must be your very first party."
"I let you know; I was invited to many parties." Scott takes a drink from his punch.
"Oh, didn't know we had Mr. Popular guy here."
"Is there anything you want?" Scott cuts through to the chase.
"Nothing really. Just having a good time." Logan responds. Both men continue to watch over the gala. For a couple seconds, it was quiet, until Logan speak up again. "So, were you popular with the ladies back in the days?"
"That I was. But it wasn't the ladies I were after."
Logan hums. For whatever reasons, he notices Scott focus on something. As he follows his gaze, he sees it landing on his fellow teacher, Y/N, chatting with Ororo and Jean. That's when Logan smirks. "You fancy Y/N?"
Scott looks back at the man. "I feel whatever I answer with, you're not going to let it go."
Logan laughs a bit. "Well, I got some good news for ya. Y/N is into the gentlemen too." Scott remains quiet, making Logan sigh. "So, are you going to be a pussy or ask him out?"
"Language Howlett."
The older man chuckles. "Never mind, I got my answer." Both men recontinue observing the students. It didn't take long before Logan obtained a good idea. "I redact my statement. I'm going to get you a date."
"Huh?"
That's when Logan grabs Scott by the arm and get across the dancefloor, towards the three teachers. They look somewhat surprised by both men, especially with one holding the other one.
"Evening, Y/N, ladies." Logan winks towards Jean, who blushes embarrassedly and looks away. He then looks back at Y/N. "I got a favor to ask you. I think some of us should be on the dancefloor to make sure everything is alright. Scott agreed to the plan, but it would be awkward and obvious when it's just him. Can you join him?"
"Oh, yeah sure." Y/N is quick to answer without any doubt.
"Eh?" Scott is speechless how well it went.
"Alright. Let's go Scott." Y/N is the first one to charge to the dancefloor, with Scott following him.
As the two men arrived at the dancefloor, they begin to slow dance, both of them holding each other. As Scott looks pass Y/N, he sees Logan smirking towards him. Cyclops can only wonder if Logan is genuine with this action, or if he's just messing with him. Still, he's thankful.
Bobby
It was an accident when Bobby overhead Y/N and Scott talking. He just exited the kitchen and walk through the hallway and as he walks pass the living room, that's when his ears Y/N's biggest wish.
"I wish I could experience the perfect Christmas." Y/N complains to his friend. "I dreamed it ever since I was young. Being with friends, spending the entire day with a guy I love, presents, amazing food."
"Do I hear something wrong, but aren't you going to experience all of that?" Scott points out.
"Yes, everything but one thing. This year isn't going to be a white Christmas." Y/N answers. "That is the ONLY thing missing. I got everything, expect that."
Scott hums. "I guess you can always wait next year."
"For a chance to get snow?" Y/N sighs. "I guess I shouldn't complain. At least I got the most important things."
However, for Bobby it isn't enough, not when he has the opportunity to change it. So, after some planning around, he managed to successfully pull his plan.
At Christmas morning, Y/N wakes up to see the other half of the bed empty. He could only guess that he's awake. After changing into something fresh, he gets out of the room to get something to eat, only to notice something odd. Some of the students excitedly look outside. Curious as he is, he walks towards the window to see snow falling out of the sky.
Surprised as he is, he quickly runs to the nearest exit to confirm his eyes aren't deceiving him. Once outside, he sees a small-layered snow on the ground, with it not stopping anytime soon. The man can't help but smile.
The man looks up to see Bobby sliding towards him. Once next to him, he transforms back into his regular form. "Merry Christmas, hon."
"Merry Christmas." Y/N smiles. Bobby is quick to give him a kiss. Then, the guy put his arm around his boyfriend. "I never knew Christmas miracles excited."
Bobby smiles smugly. "Thanks for the complement."
Y/N looks besides him. Of course Iceman is behind this. "You did this?"
"Well, I overheard you talking to Scott. So, I met with Storm and without any problem, this is the result."
"I love you so much." Y/N gives a massive kiss on Bobby's cheek, who smiles happily.
"Let's make sure the rest of your perfect Christmas list comes true." Even though this small part became true, Bobby wants to make sure the rest of the day becomes the perfect day for Y/N. After all, that's what he would do for his boyfriend.
Deadpool
"This story started out 2 years ago. It was a nice, quiet day. That's when the terrorist invaded."
"When you told me you were telling a Christmas story, I wasn't imagining terrorist in it."
On the couch, the couple of Wade and Y/N are enjoying the Christmas evening. The assassin is sitting, reading a book, while Y/N is lying with his head on his lap.
"That's because terrorist don't care about Christmas. Does war suddenly stop when this holy day begins?"
"No...?"
"Right." Deadpool continues to read. "Thousands were slaughtered, all because of one thing, black Friday." All Y/N wonders what kind of crack his boyfriend smokes in order to tell such an odd story. "Yes, black Friday, the day of capitalism. The very same one that rivals Christmas. The terrorist all lost their money, one holiday after another. They demanded society to change, but reality doesn't work that way. So instead of talking with their mouths, they started talking with their guns."
"Wade, honey, I love you and your shenanigans, but I'm not in the mood to listing to something revolving terrorists."
Deadpool scoffs. "Well, I doubt they would feel the same." Still, he closes the book that he self-wrote that is just in reality just some notes. "What else do you want to hear?"
"I dunno. Can you tell something more with the Christmas spirit in mind?" Y/N suggests.
"Alright." Deadpool begins to think of something. "I got something. There is this guy named... Cade. He's this very handsome guy. And I mean very handsome. All the other guys are so jealous about his looks, they can't help but feel like they got to kill him. Like this guy, Francis Freeman. He's hella ugly, and that bitch-"
Even though Deadpool begins his ranting, Y/N knew long before that this is him boosting his own ego. "I get it. I get it. Cade is you and is very handsome. Can you move on?"
"No, I forgot to mention he's also sexy, a good cook, has a big d-"
"You're perfect. I know. What's the story?"
Wade clears his throat. "Well, after killing that BASTERD Francis, Cade saved his also handsome boyfriend that is less handsome than himself. And since it's Christmas, they can't help but celebrate together. So, they went to Cade's expensive, fancy, beautiful apartment, which he can totally afford."
"Yeah, totally." Y/N rolls his eyes.
"And so, they get out the drinks and the delicious food, which Cade, of course, made. His boyfriend made a comment about how healthy the food is and that it translated into Cade's low fat swimmer body with the only fat in his ass. Cade thanked him very much. He's ALWAYS happy to be recognizes for HIS contributions, Y/N."
Y/N looks up to his boyfriend. Although looking happy, he's definitely got something to say. "Everything alright?"
"I'm fine. Thank you for asking." Deadpool calmly replies. He recontinues the story. "His boyfriend appreciates the amount of effort Cade puts into his body and for his thick ass. He can't help but accidently grabs it. 'Oopsie, didn't meant that.' But he did." Y/N begins to frown, looking quiet uncomfortable. "'It's alright, cutie. You're free to explore my ass anytime.' And so, the erotica has begun."
Y/N is quick to jump up from the couch, looking quiet disturbed. "I'm going to the toilet to puke."
Deadpool stands up, surprised by Y/N's totally sudden outburst. "B-But Y/N! It was just getting to the good part!"
Kurt
It's a quiet day inside of the church. As time passes, cultures changes, and one of those are religion. Meaning there are barely any people inside of the church during this holiday. Still, Kurt isn't bothered by, as he continues to pray, thankful for his life and hope his future is secured. But he isn't the only one he's praying about, he also prays for his boyfriend, who's sitting beside him.
Y/N isn't too interested into religion in general and wouldn't come here from his own free will. However if it means supporting the person he loves, he will do anything. All he does is remain quiet, patiently awaiting for Kurt to be finished.
After several minutes, Kurt opens his eyes to look back at Y/N. "I hope you weren't troubled joining me."
"Not at all." Y/N smiles at the blue man. "I hope you had a good time."
"I did. Praying always soothes my mind and heart. I try to do it every day." Kurt gladfully smiles.
"What were you praying about?"
"I usual pray for guidance and safety. Not just for me, but for you, our friends and good people in general. Today, however, I also prayed for the future."
"The future?" Y/N is curious to hear what Kurt desires for his and their future. "What do you hope for?"
"Of course, I would prefer if any future danger ceased to exist. But if it does, I hope no one gets hurt. I also hope we can continue our relationship."
"I can say you don't need to pray for that."
"Zank you." Kurt's German accent continues to slip. "I've been meaning to say I'm grateful I got you by my side. And lately I've been wondering what will happened to us in the future."
"What do you mean?"
"Like getting a home together." Kurt gives some examples. "Or adopting a pet. Or... being more than just partners."
Y/N smiles. "Well, I would definitely love to get a home with you. I'm open for all pets. And... although now would be too soon, I wouldn't mind getting married."
Kurt looks excited. "You do?"
"I am."
"That's good to hear." Kurt grabs Y/N's hand, holding it tightly. "How about we get back? I think it's time for our dinner."
Piotr
"Are you sure you're alright?"
"I am."
"But it's too big."
Some members of the X-Men decided to get a Christmas tree from a forest. One of these are Piotr and Y/N. Being the strong and massive man he is, Piotr is carrying the pine tree to the truck, though Y/N isn't sure.
"I can handle it fine."
"The tree is like 20 feet." Y/N wishes he could exaggerate it. "It wouldn't even fit inside of mansion."
"I got a better idea." Logan gets pass the couple, since he was the one who has to do the cutting. "How about we place it outside?"
"A 20 feet tree?" Y/N sounds unsure. "That sounds like a law waiting to be broken."
"Then we cut it in half." Logan put out his claws and look back at the Russian man. "Put it down, big guy. Time to make ourselves a tree."
And so, after hours of traveling back, and the trio get back at the institute. It was a real struggle to get the Christmas tree balance, but after using different mutations and simple trucks, the tree manages to stand normal. And so, that leaves decorating the Christmas tree. The entire school are willing to put something in the tree, even with the help of those who can reach higher.
One of those people is Y/N, who has a Christmas bauble in shape of a gingerbread man. Though with all of the students, the lower parts are already been set.
"Can't find a good place?" Piotr asks, standing beside his lover.
"If only I could fly." Y/N sighs, though still smiles at the activity.
Piotr looks down beside him. "Let me give you a boost."
Y/N didn't complain. Piotr crouches down on his knees, with his boyfriend getting up on his shoulders. Carefully, the tall man stands up. Now on another level, Y/N can put the decoration in the tree. Once hanging and without risk of falling, Y/N smiles happily at the gingerbread man.
"He's hanging." He looks back to see Piotr's head between his legs. "Thanks sweetie."
"You're welcome."
Y/N reaches down with his head, in front of Piotr's and upset down. That's when he kisses his boyfriend. They're going to remember this day for the entirety of his life.
Gambit
Being the romantic as he is, Gambit wants to celebrate the holiday the best way he can. He already planned the entire day, though being in the institute means sharing the entire building with all it's residents. Thus, Gambit asked around and manage to get an apartment.
Before he and Y/N enters the room, he made sure to decorate it. And once they open the door, they immediately spot the dressed up table, ready to be used.
"It's gorgeous."
"Not as gorgeous as you." Gambit offers to take Y/N's coat.
Afterwards, he put it and his on the rack. Then he leads his boyfriend towards the table. He makes sure to properly sits Y/N down. Once he did, he grabs a lighter and lit up the candles on the table.
"Someone made sure to be extra romantic tonight."
"Glad you recognize my work." Gambit smiles. He walks towards the open kitchen, still being able to view his lover. "I originally wanted us to go to a five-star restaurant, but then I realized I could make something better than five-star food."
"Good to know." Y/N smiles. "I always enjoyed your dishes. So I wonder how good it would be today."
"Perfect. I could tell you that much." Gambit begins grabbing all the ingredients to begin making the dish. "I hope you have a lot of room in your stomach."
"I only ate breakfast. I hope it doesn't take long for the food."
"Be patient. Cooking takes time, but once you bite in the first slice, it's all worth it."
After several minutes, Gambit walks in the dining room, holding two plates of perfect cooked steaks. "Bon appetite."
Y/N can't help but instantly notice the delicious smell. "I wish they made parfum of this."
"I could get you one." Gambit set the plate at his side and sits down. "But I think you dislike it after some hours."
"Yeah, true." Y/N grabs his knife and fork. Both men look at each other. "Merry Christmas, Remy."
"And a merry Christmas to you, Y/N."
Warren
"I finished another one."
"Great."
For this Christmas, Warren was in the mood to give presents to random strangers. He discussed his desire with his boyfriend, who is quick to want to help him. And so, after discussing for a plan, they finally got one. It's called 'Operation: Holy Angel'. Warren bought thousands gift, with Y/N keeping an eye on them inside of their home. All the while, Warren flies around with a sack full of presents, dropping them off by families.
"This is going to be a long night. Make sure to rest."
"I can fly for hours. I make sure when enough is enough." Warren reassures. He opens the sack, gesturing Y/N to continue putting presents in it. "I already saw some kids opening the presents. They love it."
"Even though they didn't asked for it?"
"It's because they didn't asked for it, they love it." Warren points out. "They didn't expect this, so no expectations. It's the perfect way to give gifts."
"Guess that's true." After making the sack full, Warren closes it. "See you soon."
"See you soon!"
The night continues, with Warren dropping countless toys and other gifts to families around the big city. It takes a long time before all of the presents disappeared, with none left. As Warren gets back to his apartment, he wonders where the rest are.
"Where are the rest of the presents?"
"You already gave them away." Y/N smiles widely. "You did it. You gave all those presents."
Warren let out a tired yawn through smiling. "Jesus, how long did that take?"
"5 hours." Y/N responds. "It's officially not Christmas anymore."
Warren gets further in his apartment to sit on the nearest chair. "Thank you for helping me. I knew you really wanted to celebrate Christmas together."
"Don't sweat it." Y/N joins him, sitting beside him. "I really enjoyed today. Besides, we got the entire vacation left together. We got plenty of time."
"You're so wonderful." Warren smiles widely. "You don't mind if we go to bed. My wings need to go to vacation too."
"Sure thing." Y/N helps Warren stand up to help him walk to the bedroom. "Let's sleep."
Fantastic four
Reed
It's almost the special day, with Reed and Johnny going shopping inside of the mall. During the entire day, Reed has been worried about what to give his boyfriend. The professor wasn't really experienced with romance. Luckily, he got Johnny by his side. Originally, they were going to shop some Christmas ornaments and other festive goodies. During which, that's when Reed speaks up.
"You're good at romantic things, right?"
Johnny looks besides him with a grin. "Wouldn't be funny if I didn't? What's up?"
"I want to give Y/N something special. Something romantic that makes me more..." Reed tries to find a good word. "someone he likes to spend his entire life with."
"Sounds like you need a wedding ring."
"No, not that." Reed quickly shuts down the idea, finding it way too soon for that. "What would you give someone you like?"
Johnny thinks for a second. "I start with flowers, but that is more a girls thing." He continues to think. "And since Y/N is a guy, knowing myself, the best gift would be sex."
"S-Sex?" Reed gasps a bit.
"Yes. Guys like sex. I know, I am one." Reed remains quiet, not knowing how to reply. "Don't you like it?"
"It's good..."
Johnny can sense he's unsure. "Yep. You're definitely not like other guys. But Y/N is. So here's my advice. You don't want to do anything vanilla. Is there any dirty secret Y/N is into?"
"Johnny, I don't know that and even if I knew, I wouldn't share his secrets." Reed sounds a bit angry with his teammate's behavior.
"That's alright. I can definitely tell he's into BDSM."
"What?"
Johnny sighs a bit with his eyes rolling. "God, you're vanilla." He looks away, thinking for a bit. When he got something, he looks back at Reed. "There is an XXX store. I'm sure we get something nice for you."
Reed looks unsure, not comfortable with the idea to do something so risqué. As well that Johnny is helping him, but... "Johnny, are you certain he's going to like it."
"He's going to love it. Trust me."
Days later, and after celebrating the holiday, it's time to go to bed. Everyone separated into different rooms, except from Reed and Y/N. The elastic man was the first man to uses the bathroom and after some minutes, he gets back to their bedroom.
"Feel free to take your time."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
Reed nervously smiles. "I got you a present, but I need some time to set it up."
"Oh. Oh!" Y/N smiles as he looks surprised. "I make sure to take my time then." With a wink, he walks towards the bathroom and closes the door, leaving Reed alone.
With haste, Reed walks towards his closet to grab his hidden back. As he opens it, he grabs a Christmas themed handcuff, as well a red speedo like cloth that has a small deer's tail at the back of it. Reed can't help but frowns at it.
"Johnny, this better work..."
Quickly, he changes his clothes into the revealing one. He drops his remaining clothes into the corner of the room. That leaves the cuffs. He gets to the bed, with his back facing the bed. At the bedframe, he put the chains around it. Lastly, he put on the cuffs first by one hand and with his powers closes the last one.
He can't feel but have a sick feeling in his stomach, but he trusts Johnny knowledge.
"Can I come in?"
"Yeah." And so, Y/N enters the bedroom, with his eyes instantly locking into the almost naked and nervous Reed Richard. The man tries to remember the script Johnny taught him. "...I-I've been naughty this Christmas... P-Punish me."
However, Reed's wishes do not come true once he sees Y/N's disgusted face. "What the fuck, Reed!?" The man is quick to storm out of the bedroom, making Reed wonder what has gone wrong.
"W-Wait, this is Johnny's idea. Johnny's!" However, it's too late. The man let out a deep sigh. "Damnit Johnny."
Johnny
"I can't believe this happened to us."
It's nighttime. On the Alps in Switzerland, Johnny has been celebrating Christmas with Y/N the best way possible. Skiing the entire day, good food at the evening, a hot tub later. All was perfect, until Johnny thought of an idea. What if they go skiing at night, just them. He thought it was really romantic, until they got lost and if Johnny tried using his powers to get help, he loses Y/N.
"I said I'm sorry."
"I don't want to die, Johnny. I'm way too young for that." Y/N says with a snark. "I don't want to freeze to death."
"You got me for that."
"And what if I starve?"
Johnny looks with a smirk at him. "I got a sausage you can eat." Y/N looks dead tired at Johnny, who continues to smirk. However, his face soon turned into a painful one when Y/N kicked him in the balls. "Not the little guys..." He grabs his crotch while sounding out of breath.
"I hope you get blue balls." Y/N scoffs. He continues getting down the mountain, with eventually Johnny following him.
They continue going down the mountain. Y/N is sure to stand right next to Johnny, despite being furious with him. Minutes turns into hours, as Y/N grows tired and even more tired. Johnny notices this and is quick to help him.
"Get on my back."
"Johnny, you're tired too..."
"I will be fine. I'm strong." With a pride smile, Johnny shows his muscles.
Y/N let out a tired sigh. "Fine..."
Johnny then gets Y/N on his back. Although feeling tired too, he wants to do everything to make things right. And so, after walking through the snows, they eventually spot a silhouette, a big one. As they get closer to it, they see what it is, a cabin.
Johnny is quick to get to it. They can't afford to get back to the hotel, so their only choice is resting at this cabin. It looks old, with no one living it. Still, he tries to knock on the door, but there is no respond. Thus, Johnny kicks in the door, allowing them to get in the one room cabin.
The human torch set the sleeping man down on a couple of pillows he spots inside of the room, as well having his jacket to be used as a mattress. With guilt, he lies down next to him, as he lies on the cold wood.
"I'm so sorry Y/N. I didn't mean to hurt you." Johnny makes sure to hold him tightly to get him some heat. "You know I love you. I make sure to do everything to make things right."
And after a long night, both men finally wake up. With Johnny still looking regretful at Y/N.
"Johnny..."
"I'm sorry, Y/N. I make sure to do everything to make things right."
"It's okay. I know you didn't mean us to be stranded."
Johnny is happy that his beloved is quick to forgive him. Offering a hand, Y/N grabs it.
"Let's get back."
"Yes."
Both men stand up and get to the door. Once they open it, they're instantly greeted by the morning sunshine, as well the snowy trees. However, that isn't the only thing they see.
"Is that the hotel?"
Johnny squinted his eyes as he sees what Y/N is talking about. Many feet away, they see the hotel they're staying. That's when he realizes they spent a night in a rotten shack for nothing. "For fucks sake!"
Ben
"Ben is going to love it. You really outdid yourself."
Susan smiles happily as Y/N wraps up Ben's present. After contacting one friend, who has a friend who has a friend that continues on, he manages to get his favorite baseball player's signature on the team's shirt. It took a long, stressful time that Y/N has barely any control over, but it's all worth it.
"Ben better considers me his life partner after all the stress I've been through."
That's when Johnny walks in the room. "Looks like someone got a present for The Grinch."
"The Grinch?" Susan crosses her arms. "Is that your new insult?"
"I wouldn't call it an insult. I call it a description." Johnny says with a smirk. "After all, he could be a monster that could ruin Christmas."
Y/N sighs, tired with Johnny slandering his boyfriend. "Knock it off."
"Just put him in front of a bunch of children and they cry at an instance." Johnny continues. "The Grinch is the perfect nickname."
"Johnny, you better not pester Ben today."
Although Y/N only wished that one thing for Christmas, though Johnny would never grant that wish. During the day, Johnny called Ben his new insult. He continues to refer him to an evil character in a children's fairytale. Although Ben is usual resistant to Johnny's pestering, he can't help but feel down and thus stayed in his room. It only took a minute for Y/N to notice he's gone, as the group meets up to exchange gifts.
Once Y/N get to Ben's room, he notices his upset demeanor. Y/N sits next to him and put his arm around the man. "Are you okay, Ben?"
"I'm fine... Sometimes I just get done with..." Ben gestures to his body. "This."
Y/N hums quietly. "I get it. You know I always love you, whether you're a regular man or not."
"I know."
There is a quiet vibe inside of the room. Y/N doesn't want to let Ben suffer and tries to find a way to make him feel better. "I thought you made peace with this."
"I did. But that damn kid." Ben clutches his fist. "I try not to let him get to me, but goddamn it's hard to resist punching him in the face."
Y/N chuckles. "He sure loves to push people's buttons." That's when he got an idea. "After the dinner, Johnny intends to meet up with one of girls to do it. How about we follow him, 'accidently' sabotage him and let him wake up with no one by his side?"
Ben looks up, looking more cheered up. "I want to gloat afterwards."
"We both do." Y/N nods. "Let's first exchange our presents and eat dinner. I don't want to reveal my amazing present, but you want to keep it forever."
"Honey, I already keep everything you give me."
"But this time is something else, trust me." Y/N stands up and offers a hand. "$50 if you're going to say that you love me so much."
Ben can't help but laugh. "I like the sound of that."
