The Tail Of Good Deeds | Jimin

The Tail of Good Deeds | Jimin

Summary Prompt: Christmas Prompt #9: Character A vows to do something nice for a stranger during the Christmas time. Character B is that stranger

Namjoon | Seokjin | Yoongi | Hoseok | Jimin | Taehyung | Jungkook

~

Your tail flicks furiously as you ascend higher towards the ocean surface. Your dark red mermaid tail shimmers with a metallic-like sheen because of the sunlight breaking into the euphotic zone of the ocean. You’re on your way to use your human legs for the first time ever.

Seven months ago, you’ve reached mermaid maturation. At the age of mermaid maturation, a mermaid finally has the capability to change into a human. It takes about 60 years, a fifth of a mermaid’s lifespan, because it’s at this age that you can resist “reckless curiosity” that could potentially make humans catch on to your species identity. Even so, you’re still really young; you’re considered at your prime. It is also at this age where a mermaid will finally choose something to do that will contribute to the merpeople society. It’s no secret to your family, friends, and all creatures of the deep nearby of your interest in humans, and for that, you’ve chosen to study humans.

With your passion for human studies and your ability to change into a human, you’ve decided that your first expedition will also be the first time you choose to walk on your human legs during one of the human’s most festive holidays ever, Christmas.

You’re not too sure what the holiday is all about, since it is a human holiday after all, and you’ve only started on human studies seven months ago. But you have observed many people feeling happy during this holiday, so it makes you happy too. You’ve decided, that whatever this holiday is about, it will be your favorite human holiday. People are practically celebrating from a week to a whole month because this holiday, and the next year’s holiday are almost back-to-back. It’s why you chose to do an ethnographic study of the Christmas holiday to experience the joy yourself.

Your head comes up above water and you are already shivering from the gust of cool winter air. As soon as your neck hits the air, your gill openings close into your skin and smoothen out. You take a deep breath through your mouth and nose and your human lungs activate.

You glide your way to the rocks and look around to see no one. You put your hands and arms on the rocks and slowly hoist yourself up through your upper body strength. The golden scales over your breasts glisten in the sunlight and you can see the lovely light refractions onto the rocks. You smile to yourself as you slowly bring yourself up higher.

“S-so cold.” You stutter to yourself as the ocean breeze hits your entire upper body.

You’re finally high enough to turn your body around to sit on the rock. You move your tail up to tuck next to you as you fish around the rocks for some of your human essentials you gathered and put up here much earlier in the year. Inside, you find a dry towel and human clothes.

You remove all your mermaid accessories from your hair and comb your hair with your fingers. You wrap the towel around yourself and you sigh in content. The towel is fluffy and has been baking under the sun for quite some time now. It’s so warm.

As soon as your upper body is dry enough, you start wiping yourself down. Your golden scales are harmlessly flaking off like dead cells and you recognize the human anatomy. You look over to your tail. An indent is already formed in the middle of your tail, and your fin has shrunk down to human feet size. You tilt your head as you observe it slowly changing. In good time, the fin has disappeared. You wipe away the rest of the flaky dark red scales on your human legs and you now have beautiful and smooth human legs tucked underneath you. You stretch out your legs in every way imaginable and wiggle your toes, giggling as you do so.

You quickly take out your clothes. With a bit of a struggle, you put on human garments for the first time. It feels so constricting, considering that you don’t wear clothes as a mermaid, but this is human culture and without this, you will be cold because of the weather up here. You stuff your towel into your seaweed sack.

Here comes the big feat: standing up. You perch your hands on the rocks as you lift you upper body. You haven’t used your legs to support your weight yet, but you bend your knees closer to you and allow your feet firmly planted on the floor now. You bounce up and down for a little bit to feel your weight shifting from being supported by your feet to your hands until you give more responsibility to your legs. You stand for a good minute or two without help from your hands. You finally make your way to shore.

When you get there, you leave the beach and look at both sides of the road. Many cars are turning into some sort of plaza or shopping center. That will be your first destination.

You observe the order in whose turn it is to cross the road or drive and manage to get to your destination unscathed.

You choose to enter into a shop you see has the most people. The air is warm and the smell has a very sweet but robust scent. Chatter is everywhere and you see little light bulbs of various colors flickering around the windows and aligned with the walls. There’s a tree that grabs your attention. It’s heavily decorated and there are boxes wrapped in pretty colors and bows underneath it. You walk over to admire the beauty.

“You like Christmas trees?” A voice speaks from behind you. You turn around to see a man behind the store counter. You smile and nod at him, “It’s very pretty.”

He smiles back, “Are you ready to order?”

“Hmm?” You look around to see everyone have a warm drink in their hand.

“Oh, uh. I actually don’t have any money on me.” Even underwater, there’s the need to exchange goods of same value for services and other goods; you expect nothing less from humans.

He gives you a strange look like, Then why are you even here?

“I came to avoid the cold for a little bit.” You say quickly. He sighs and looks around, “Would you still like a drink? It’ll be on me.” On him?

“N-no, it’s okay.” You smile and shake your head. Of course, he takes it that you are simply a nice girl who doesn’t want to take advantage of someone, not because you’re afraid of the implications of a drink being “on” him.

“It’s okay. I have employee discount. If you’re here to avoid the cold, you might as well have a hot coffee too.” He grins, and this time you can see his pearly white teeth.

“Okay.” You give in. He smiles at you and you walk up to the counter.

“What would you like?” He asks you and you look up at the board. Nothing here is familiar except for water, and you’re sure that it would be strange for you to only have water here. Besides, since you get to experience human life, you might as well try something new.

“What would you suggest?” You ask.

“Do you like more or less caffeine?” You’re not too sure what would happen to you if you had more of this “caffeine”.

“Less caffeine.”

“Then I would suggest a peppermint mocha. It’s not too much on caffeine and it’s a holiday favorite.”

“Peppermint mocha.” You were drawn mostly to the fact that the peppermint mocha is “a holiday favorite.”

“One peppermint mocha…what size would you like?”

“The largest one.” The guy chuckles as he punches in the order.

“Here’s my favorite part of the job: getting the pretty girl’s name.” He takes a cup and uncaps a sharpie. He looks at you expectantly with a grin.

“Y/N.” You blush. He has you spell it out for him. Luckily, human language is one of the things you first study about humans.

“Thank you, Y/N. I hope to see you again.” He nods at you. You smile back and walk away to let the next person in line order.

“Hey, Jimin.” Taehyung turns over to his colleague whose busy making coffee, “Do you have your employee discount card? Mine is in the back.”

“Aren’t you the one who was oh-so-chivalrously paying the girl’s drink out of your own pocket?” Jimin teased.

“Please? I’ll pay you back. I just need it this one time.” Jimin sighs and pulls out his card from his back pocket. Taehyung quickly uses it and gets the next guy’s order. Since no one else is in line, Taehyung snatches your cup before Jimin can grab it, “I want to do it.”

Jimin puffs out a laugh as Taehyung enthusiastically makes your drink. Jimin glances over to you to see you standing among other people waiting for your coffee. You’re a very pretty girl, but a little underdressed for the winter.

“No wonder why she has to get out of the cold.” Jimin mumbles to himself.

A girl who doesn’t have money and isn’t properly dressed for the winter? Makes one wonder about your situation.

Jimin can’t help but glance at your direction a couple more times. You’re distracted by all the Christmas décor with a peaceful smile on your face, like you’re letting the whole atmosphere of the coffee shop sink deep into your soul. It’s beautiful and humbling to him to see such a girl who doesn’t have much but still seeks out the simple pleasures in life.

Taehyung sees Jimin looking at you a couple times and he grins. He gives Jimin your cup and it snaps Jimin out of it.

“What?”

“I’m going on my break, you do it.” Taehyung whistles and skips off to disappear behind the “employees only” door before Jimin can protest.

Jimin sighs. He finishes making the drink for the man who was after you because that was what he was working on since Taehyung took your cup.

Jimin reads your order and your name and does his job as he should.

“One peppermint mocha for Y/N.” he calls out to you. You smile and walk over to take the cup.

“Thank you so much.” You feel its warmth and sigh. You take a sip and widen your eyes like you’ve never had one before.

“This is great! Where’s the other guy? I want to thank him.”

“Taehyung’s on his break now. I’ll let him know you say thanks.” You nod and take another sip. Jimin taps his fingers on the counter as he looks around to see there’s no one in line to order. He makes a decision. He leans over the counter to speak to you in a quiet voice.

“So, I know this place a couple blocks away; they serve three hot meals a day for free and gives you shelter overnight.” You continue sipping on your drink and blink at him; you don’t really understand why he’s telling you this.

He sees your blank expression and continues, “They have a lot of donated clothes there, maybe you can find something warmer for yourself.” You’re just blinking.

“Do you know where 7th avenue is? You go down two blocks, and then make a left. Go down one more block and it’s the blue building with the green door.”

“Okay…” You start. You’re still not sure what he’s getting to but he thinks you’re just someone who doesn’t have a strong sense of direction. But that’s okay. He gulps and looks at the clock, “I’m off my shift soon. Would you like me to take you there?”

“Sure.” You take another sip. He nods and checks the clock, “10 minutes.” You nod and turn around to look at the décor. You move closer to the fireplace. It’s the first time you see a fire so close; so close, you can feel its warmth. You reach out to feel it but the closer you get, the hotter it gets. Before you actually touch it, the heat is already unbearable and you pull back. Fire: bad. You’ll stick with water.

15 minutes later, Jimin is out and Taehyung is back behind the counter. You thank Taehyung once again and he smiles at you and Jimin as you two head out.

“Merry Christmas, Jimin.” Taehyung mumbles to himself in a sing-song voice and grins mischievously.

“I know it’s really cold, but we can get you something warm to wear when we get to the shelter.” Jimin says as you tag along. You have to scurry a few steps every once in a while to catch up with him because he’s walking so fast. It’s too cold for Jimin to make a lasting conversation with you and he can only think how you need something warm on quick. Technically, you’re okay though. It can’t be any colder than when you first came out of the sea.

You two finally arrive to the shelter and he opens the door for you. Jimin sighs as he unwraps his scarf and sheds some other winter layers. The shelter is very nice, warm and dry. Perfect for you to stay.

“So do you normally come here?” You ask as he leads you to the donations counter.

“Hey, Jungkook. Can you get my friend here something warm to wear? This is all she has on.” Jungkook looks over to you. He’s surprised to see someone so young and pretty, but still in an unfortunate situation.

“Sure. What size are you?” You shrug.

Jungkook slowly nods with a sheepish grin, “Okay…maybe that wasn’t the best question to ask a girl. I’ll go find something pretty for you myself.” Jungkook enters the back.

“So what were you saying?” Jimin turns to you.

“Do you come here often too? For food, clothing, and shelter?”

“Huh? N-no. But I volunteer here often. Especially during the holidays.”

“Do many people volunteer here during the holidays? Is that what brings Christmas spirit to you?”

“Heh, depends on what you mean by ‘many’ people. By headcount, yes quite a bit, but in reality, if you look at the ratio of the community population, we’re very few. Many people put their Christmas spirit in religious activities, parties, decoration and environment, or some don’t celebrate it at all” He smiles at you.

“I personally like volunteering because I’m giving more than getting. It’s not necessarily the miracle-birth-of-Jesus type of meaningful Christmas, but this is meaningful enough for me.” He shrugs.

So there seems to be a meaningful and an un-meaningful Christmas?

“I want to volunteer too!” You exclaim, “Is it only during Christmas or all the time?”

“…It’s…all the time…” Jimin hesitates, “Uh, I’m sorry. Did…did I get the wrong idea about you?”

“What do you mean?” Jimin turns really red.

“I am so sorry! You, well, you don’t have money on you and you don’t have much clothing to keep warm... I thought that…you know, maybe…you needed some help…” Jimin looks down at his feet, super embarrassed.

“Um, to be honest, I’m not really sure what you’re getting at, but it’s okay. I, uh, forgive you? Anyway, about the volunteering; can I start right now? I should head home in a couple hours.” You’re more excited to feel the spirit of Christmas through volunteering. You’re not sure what volunteering consists of, but if Jimin can do it and it doesn’t sound harmful, why not. In the spirit of Christmas, you choose to volunteer.

Jimin’s ears turn red at the mention of your home. He thanks his lucky stars that you don’t seem to take any offense to it. But that still makes him curious about where you come from.

After Jungkook gets you a really nice and warm coat, Jimin brings you over to a sign-up sheet. You ask nervously if you have to put down so much personal information. He says that it’s not absolutely necessary, but the shelter is able to keep you informed about volunteering and donating opportunities if you do. You omit your personal information except for your name and age. Rather than your mermaid’s age of 60, you decide to divide that by three. Seems good enough.

You and Jimin spent the day volunteering. You can’t cook human food, so you served it to the ones who wanted it and helped Jungkook organize the clothes in the donations center.

“I feel great!” You say to Jimin after you two finally get a chance to sit down.

“I’m happy that you do. I still feel bad that I mistook you for…well, yeah.” Jimin takes a sip of his water bottle and forces his blush to subside.

“I’m very glad you took me here. Christmas must really be the best holiday.” You down your own water bottle too in one take. Every 20 minutes, you have to drink a whole bottle of water. He watches you in amazement to see you take in so much water at a time. Little does he know.

You look at the clock to see it’s already past 10:45pm. It’s not that you have a curfew or anything, but your body tingles because it misses the ocean so much. No matter if you can become a human or not, your natural instincts don’t give you the urge to stay human longer than 24 hours at a time.

“I should go home now.” You sigh. You throw away your bottle. Jimin gets up with you.

“Um…are you going to come back? You know, to help volunteer more often?” He asks quickly.

“Not for a while. It’s actually really rare for me to come out.”

“Can I take you home?”

“No!” You cry out and he raises his eyebrows at your outburst, “Uh, it’s too far away.”

“it’s okay. If it’s so far how do you even plan to get home, and all by yourself too?” He asks.

“Uh…”

So the mystery girl doesn’t have money or clothes, doesn’t want people to come to her house, doesn’t come out often, and experiences everything like it’s her first time…

“Y/N.” He says in a serious and low tone, “I know we're only strangers, but if you ever need any help, you can call me okay? Here’s my number. And if I can’t help you, authorities can. Truly, it’s better to ask for help. No one looks down on you if you don’t. Instead, you’d be very brave. Okay?” Once again, he talks to you in riddles. But his sincerity and his serious care for you makes you feel really soft and warm inside.

“You’re a very sweet boy, Jimin.” You give him a kiss on the cheek. He’s stunned.

“Okay, I really have to go now. Thank you for a wonderful day. You made me coming out here so worth it.” You scamper off. Jimin looks over to see that you’ve left your coat again.

He runs out to give you your coat but you’re already out of sight. He looks in different directions, but one he doesn’t count on is the direction to the ocean, where you’re already running over with glee because of all you got today, and also, you’re feeling pulled closer and closer to the salty waters.

6 Hours 'Til Christmas | Yoongi

Summary line: Christmas prompt #18 - Character A and Character B have to save Christmas.

Namjoon | Seokjin | Yoongi | Hoseok | Jimin | Taehyung | Jungkook

~

Yoongi rolls over in his bed and groans as his phone rings for the fifth time in a row.

Whoever is calling me before I’m ready to be up is dead to me now. He opens his eyes in a glare at his phone ringing and vibrating. Without looking at the contact person, he slams his hand down on his phone to grab it and swipe the call to take it.

“What?!” He growls. He hears your voice squeak and his expression turns soft, but his voice is still a little rough, “Y/N? Why are you calling me at,” He looks at the time and sheepishly continues, “…4pm?”

“I’m sorry. But you’re the closest person I know who has a big enough car…” You start. He sighs. Sounds like an errand.

“What do you want?” He asks straightforwardly.

“Um…my family is surprising me by flying in to spend the holidays. B-but, you know, I didn’t really expect them, so I didn’t feel the need to dress my home in Christmas spirit. I don’t want to ruin their Christmas…so…”

“You need a Christmas tree, decorations, and stockings, am I right? Do you have Christmas lights?” He asks as he sits up. He rubs his face when you answer no.

“What time do they come in?”

“They’ll be here in 6 hours.” His eyes widen and he groans. He lies back on his bed.

“Y/N, I’ll be at your house in 20 minutes. At 20 minutes sharp, I want you outside with a thermos of coffee, black and 2 sugars. Okay? Start looking up where you’re going to get your stockings, decorations, and lights.” He can practically hear you nodding before you remember he can’t see you. You mumble your agreement and he ends the call. He sighs and gets up.

As he promised, he shows up at your home in 20 minutes. At the same time, he sees you coming out from the stairs to your apartment with a thermos in hand.

When you get inside his truck, he reaches for the thermos before you can close the door and he takes a long sip of the coffee.

“Okay,” He pants as he tips the thermos back and closes it. He puts it in the cup holder and drives off.

“We’re going to get the tree first. It’s two days before Christmas so I’m pretty sure your choices are more limited than limited. Where are we getting the stuff? And you already got your family presents, right?” He asks as he turns the corner onto the main road.

“Yeah. We can get the stuff at the discount retailer nearby. We can get them on our way home after we get the tree.” You say as you double check on the store’s website for their stock count, “And I bought my family presents a long time ago. I shipped it to them, but they’re bringing it over so we can all open our presents together.”

He says nothing. You put your hands in your lap and you lower your head, “Thanks for helping me.”

Yoongi just grunts and he takes another sip of the coffee.

You two arrive at a plain field where a fence surrounds five Christmas trees that have already been pre-cut. You two get out and he follows you inside the boundaries to take a look at the trees.

“Um.” You study the different trees. They’re similar in heights; not too tall, but not short either. At least they will surpass you two and your family’s heights. You feel lucky enough that these are your choices. You eliminate the shortest one, the thinnest one, and the one where the top is starting to look bare.

“Of these two, which one do you think is good?” You ask Yoongi. He was looking elsewhere, but he turns to the trees now with a bored look. He gestures to one of them, “That one.”

“Why?” You ask. You were leaning towards that tree too, but you wanted a second opinion.

“Do you want to discuss why and give yourself second thoughts, or do you want to get it home before you family shows up?” You purse your lips together and nod. You two go find the man in charge to take it home.

After you two bundled the tree with the help of the business man, you two make your way to the store to get the stockings, lights, and tree decorations.

“I’ll get the lights and the stockings. You go choose your decorations.” Yoongi splits off without another word.

“Try to get purple or white lights if you can!” You shout to him as he’s quickly making his way down the lanes.

“Beggars can’t be choosers!” He shouts back.

Nevertheless, he makes his way to the lane with all the lights, scanning for purple or white. There’s green and blue. But no purple or white.

He frowns and makes his way out of the lane to see a store helper walking by.

“Excuse me. I’m sorry. Do you have any more lights in the back, purple or white?” He gives a sweet and polite smile at the girl.

“Oh.” She pauses just to stare at him, “I’m sorry, I think this is all we have.”

“Can you please check? I’m trying to save Christmas for my girlfriend here.” He spins the story, with a little white lie. You’re the girl, but he’s just the friend.

Her expression changes when she thinks he’s taken, “O-oh. Okay. I’ll be right back.” She makes her way to the back. He checks the other two lanes for stockings and chooses a couple of red, green, and white ones. They’re plain, but it’ll have to do. He stays in front of the staff only doors to wait for the girl.

She comes back out with three boxes in her arms.

“These are all I can find. These two are 50 bulbs of purple, and this is 100 bulbs of white.” He takes them from her arms.

“Thank you so much. Merry Christmas.” He darts off to the decorations lane and she watches him go as she muses to herself, “Lucky girl.”

He skims through the lanes and finally finds you with four ornament sets, two sets of purple orbs and two sets of cute ornaments of different shapes and figures, and silver tinsel.

“You’re lucky. These are the last on the shelf.” He raises up the boxes of lights in his hand as evidence. You grunt your thank you as you reach up the shelves.

You’re just about to grab the star at the top shelf, but he comes over and grabs one for you.

“Not that one. The one on the right.” He glares at you. You look at him with an apologetic look and he sighs. He puts the star down and grabs the one you want.

“Ready?” He asks. You look at him and nod. You two go to the check out.

You have two hours before you go pick your parents up at the airport. You search up their flight number to keep track of when they land as Yoongi sits your Christmas tree on the most spacious corner of your house and plants it in the Christmas tree stand.

Yoongi takes out all the decorations and lights from the boxes as you take them from him and start decorating. You two work together to make the best Christmas tree you possibly can. There are not enough lights, but you two tried to spread it out as much as you can, but close enough so that the gaps don’t feel so empty.

Since you bought so many ornaments, you don’t want to overdo your Christmas tree so you choose some to hang around your house. You hand over the leftover ones to Yoongi for him to put up around your house. You grab some arts and crafts glitter glue to write your family members’ names on the stockings.

As you write, Yoongi completes his task and takes your computer to check the time.

“You have 45 minutes left before we leave. Anything else?”

“Uh,” You start without looking up from your work, “Can you check if I have any easy bake cookie dough or something? I should have some cookie cutters on my third drawer at the end. And some hot chocolate, I’m pretty sure I have some.”

He hums and searches up Spotify and finds a playlist for you to put on some Christmas music. You look up at smile at him and he returns a smile to you for the first time today. He goes to the kitchen to look at your holiday food inventory.

“You have one box of cookie dough and not enough hot chocolate to serve your whole family for…how long are they staying?” He asks.

“5 days. I thought I had more hot chocolate.” You say as you complete 2 out 3 stockings. You paste some decorative things on your stockings as well.

“You probably drink it all.” He says as he comes back from the kitchen.

“Probably.” You blush.

“Well, we still have a little time to make it to the store. We’ll pick up some food and get your family. You’re going to have to make it after you come home.”

You sigh and get up, stick a star on the last stocking. You hang up all three on a blank wall.

“Okay. Let’s go.” You grab your coat and leave with him. The Christmas music is still playing.

After grabbing some snickerdoodles, both store-bought and premade dough, hot chocolate, candy canes and mint chocolates for the stockings, and double-stocked on hot chocolate, you two finally make way to the airport.

Yoongi makes a couple of rounds around the airport while you go in to meet up with your family.

Yoongi gets a call from you to notify him that you finally got a hold of your parents and you’re making your way out.

“Here we go.” He mumbles to himself as he makes a slow crawl down the road to find you and slide in against the sidewalk closest to you and your family. He’s never met your family, so it’ll be the first time.

He sees you flagging him down with your parents and your brother behind you with their luggage.

He parks the car on the side to come out and open the truck’s rear end. He overhears your conversation with your parents.

“He’s Yoongi, my friend. He’s the closest friend I know who owns a car big enough to hold a – uh, your luggage.” You explain to your family as you help your mom roll her luggage over to Yoongi who smiles and greets everyone as he takes the luggage to put it in.

“Hello Yoongi, I’m Y/N’s father, Y/F/N.” Your father extends his hand out to shake Yoongi’s hand. Yoongi returns the greeting and meets with your father’s firm handshake with just as much firmness.

“Y/M/N.” Your mother introduces herself.

“Please to meet you.” Yoongi shakes her hand as well.

“I’m Jimin, her little brother.” Jimin lifts his hand in a short wave.

“Alright. We’re ready to go.” You clasp your hands together. Your father watches you as you slide into the passenger’s seat as naturally as you do.

At your home, rather than shooing Yoongi away, you invite him to stay for a while. It’s the least you can do as far as tonight goes after all that he’s done for you today. While your family embraces the warmth of your home, Yoongi stays in the kitchen to prepare the tray of cookies.

“Y/N, what does Yoongi do for a living?” Your father asks you out of nowhere. You pause your arm stretch for your cup of hot chocolate.

“He does music. Why?” You ask.

“That’s his major?” He interrogates further. You hear a little hostility in his voice.

“N-no. He dropped out of college after his first year. He’s been supporting himself through his music. He’s quite popular in the underground hip hop community.”

“Underground hip hop?” Jimin pipes up, “That’s cool.” Your father gives Jimin a disapproving look for interrupting before turning back to you.

“I don’t know if I like the idea of my daughter dating some guy who’s unstable with his career, and in underground hip hop of all.”

“Wait a second, dad. What’s wrong with hip hop? And when did I ever say he’s unstable? He’s been doing this for years and he’s making a good name for himself right now. I mean, you’ve seen his truck. He bought that on his own.”

“Yeah, but he doesn’t have the education that will be his back up if he fails. Music careers aren’t known to support anyone other than the musician himself.”

“He’s not going to fail, dad. And he’s a very responsible person.” You said definitively.

“Hey, Y/N,” You all turn to see Yoongi at the entry way between your living room and the kitchen, “I’ve put the cookies in the oven already. I set the egg timer for you. I’m gonna go now. It’s been a long day. Merry Christmas, everyone. Please, enjoy your night.” He quickly makes a break for his shoes at your home’s entry way and leaves.

“Nice going, dad. He probably heard you. You know, since you three decided to surprise me with your visit, I actually didn’t have my home decorated at all. Not even a candy cane in the house. I told him six hours before your arrival that I wanted to decorate my home because I know how much you guys like the holiday spirit. He drove me everywhere to find the right tree, the lights, stockings, cookies, hot chocolate, and to pick you up. And you know what? He bought the tree, as a Christmas gift for all of us. He doesn’t have his own family to spend Christmas with. His parents kicked him out when they heard he wanted to pursue his passion in music as a career, kind of like what you’re doing right now.” You get up and go after Yoongi, leaving your family inside.

You run down the stairs to see Yoongi’s car already started. You quickly open the passenger’s side and hop in.

“Yoongi, I’m so sorry for my family. My dad doesn’t mean to judge so quickly. He normally doesn’t, not even with my previous boyfriends. He’s a lot more open-minded than you think. Just give him a chance.”

“Why?” He stuns you with his question.

“W-what do you mean ‘why?’” You ask.

“Why are you so afraid that we don’t like each other?” Yoongi turns to you. He doesn’t smile or anything, but his eyes show amusement.

“Well, you’re my friend. And he’s my dad. I’d hate for two important people in my life to not like each other.” You explain.

“I don’t think that’s all of it, Y/N.” He turns off his car, “You know, I heard every word upstairs. One thing stuck out to me though.” You hold your breath when he leans closer to you.

“You never denied that we’re dating. And did you just try to comfort me through examples of your dad liking your previous boyfriends?” You blink at him and bite your lip, unsure of what you can say.

He looks down at your lips and smirks. He raises his hand up to your cheek and extends his thumb to stroke your lips.

“I believe you about your dad. I know myself. I’m pretty sure he’ll warm up to me. Like his good little daughter did.” He leans closer.

“I believe in you, Yoongi.” You whisper as he closes in.

“I know. Thank you.” Yoongi’s lips finally meet yours and you sigh into the kiss. He brings his hand to the back of your head to pull you closer to him, deepening the kiss.

You two hear a knock on Yoongi’s side window. You two break the kiss to see your dad. You bite your lips again and blush furiously as Yoongi lowers the window.

“Hello, sir.” Your father looks back and forth between you two.

“Kids,” he mumbles to himself before he looks at Yoongi, “I apologize for my behavior earlier. I just never heard about you, or met you no less, so I asked the basics without getting to know you. Thank you for helping my daughter get ready for Christmas in her home. Would you like to come back up for some of those cookies you baked?”

Yoongi turns back to you and you smile at him with a look that says, told you.

“I’d be honored, sir.” Yoongi nods.

“There’s not much honor, boy.” Your father laughs, “You baked them. We are more honored than you are for coming into a home of warmth.”

Your father starts walking away before turning back, “I expect my daughter to come up really soon. So quit making out for now.”

You groan in embarrassment when your dad goes back up to your home and Yoongi laughs for the first time tonight and pats you on the back.

“I like your dad.”

“I’m sure. My exes tend to like him. He’s a lot cooler when you get to know him more. Soon, you’re going to like him more than you like me.” You groan and drop your head.

He lifts your head back up to kiss you, “That’s very unlikely. I’m not gonna kiss him.”

Hello ! I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but like, I absolutely adored the Candy Cane Namjoon, like for real it was awesome ! 😍😭 you write so well and the female character was so empowered and all !!! HUUH I LOVED IT ! So... May I ask if a second part is planed ? If not, may I ask a second part ??? YOUR WORK IS AWESOME PLEASE KEEP GOING 💞😎

😭😭😭 you have been just the sweetest person in the world! I’ve read your every reblog and comment in my stories. Thank you for your wonderful appreciation.

Lol I didnt intend to write a continuation with candy cane. But you’re not the first to express hope to continue on this. Candy cane does seem a little bit of a cliff hanger, doesn’t it? Lol, my bad.

Honestly, from the first person, I already started to entertain the idea of making a second scenario…(and I already have a two-word background for y/n to make this a really interesting dynamic…)but I’m concerned that I would make this into a full-length fanfiction, and I don’t really want to do that because I’ve put another mafia!au fanfiction on the back burner for a long time already.

I will consider making another scenario (because yes, I really like it too), but I make no promises right now.

Thank you so much, once again. You’ve been so sweet.😊 Stay tuned! This whole week has been queued and we have two more members on the way 🙂
