A/N: Okay, so I know I've been a bit lazy updating the next chapter but I wanted to do a little special for Christmas. If you don't celebrate, that's completely fine! I just wanted to write a little something for Christmas and celebrate it. By the way, this will take place in the modern era so I hope you will like this one-shot. Anyway. I wish you guys happy holidays and a new year to 2021!

The smell of fresh cookies out of the oven was pleasant enough since you could already taste the frosting and sprinkles on the cookies. What was surprising were all the people inside the house decided to show up at your Christmas party. You were happy that everyone accepted your invitation to celebrate a holiday altogether. While you were decorating your stocking with Giyu, Shinobu, and Mitsuri, you looked up to see your boyfriend Michikatsu taking out the tray of cookies from the oven as a small smile showed on his lips beside his brother Yoriichi.

Douma, Gyutaro, and Ume were playing video games on your gaming console. You had to admit that you were surprised how well they were getting along since Ume was often competitive with everyone else, especially video games. As much as you loved Ume, a sigh of relief left your lips since she hadn't thrown the controller at Douma's head-- even though he did deserve it because he was interesting at times.

"The cookies are ready," Yoriichi addressed modestly, holding a plate of sugar cookies and placed them down on the table. You then rose your hand and patted Yoriichi's head with a smile. Yoriichi didn't react much since he was used to your head pats and enjoyed the head pats he received. From the corner of your eye, you could see Michikatsu pouting, his eyebrows furrowing because you were giving attention to his younger brother instead of him.

"Thank you, Yoriichi. Now I need to give your brother a head pat too before he gets pouty."

You joked, pulling your hand away and made yourself to the kitchen to give attention to your easily jealous boyfriend. Once you entered the kitchen, you walked towards the male and wrapped your arms around his waist, smiling at him as if you hadn't done anything wrong. In response, Michikatsu scoffed as he held you close, looking over to your other friends in the living room.

Obanai, Uzui, and Sanemi looked like they were having fun chatting with each other and playing Monopoly while Rengoku and Muichiro played another board game with the Kamado siblings. "It appears that everyone is having a grand time. You know how to throw a party, [name]." He placed his hand on your hand, smiling faintly at the sight that everyone was having a grand old time on Christmas.

"Of course, I do. Your girlfriend is the best party planner in our class." You gloated, flicking your [h/c] hair until several strands of hair got into your mouth. You began to get your hair out while your boyfriend laughed at your fail attempt to look graceful like one of those pretty hair commercials you've seen on TV. "You didn't see anything." You poked his chest repeatedly, pouting at the tall bastard because you could see that he was trying his best not to laugh at you, although it was only in good fun.

Before he could respond, the two of you flinched in unison when Zenitsu and Inosuke were yelling and arguing playing a game of Uno, and already, that made you regret giving them that game to play. "Oh, dear god." You sighed, facepalming at the two as you shook your head at the boys. Michikatsu's smile dropped since he was having a moment with his girlfriend until the two began to argue.

Luckily, Aoi was there to set them straight by smacking both their heads, lecturing them that they shouldn't make a mess and bicker inside another person's home. You loved both of the boys like they were your younger brothers, and you were thankful that Aoi was there to set them both straight. You didn't say anything because it looked like Nezuko had it under control. Shaking your head with a smile, you looked over to your boyfriend and went on your toes to place a kiss on his cheek.

"Come on, let's join everyone in the living room." You laughed before grabbing his hand gently and tugged him to join the others in the living room to open presents. You didn't bother to hear his response since he was busy trying to hide his flushed expression with his hand. 

~•~

After opening presents, every smile touched your heart because you were happy to see everyone get along and smile altogether. Finally, it was your turn to open a gift that Michikatsu handed to you. By the looks of it, it was a small box wrapped neatly in red and gold-colored wrapping paper with a tiny gold bow. Tearing off the paper, you slowly undid the bow and opened the black box, your eyes widening in shock when there was a silver chained necklace with your initials.

"Oh, Michi. Thank you! It's beautiful!" You wrapped your arms around your boyfriend's neck and placed a few kisses on his cheek. Even when you didn't ask much for Christmas because you wanted to get a present for everyone, including your boyfriend and Yoriichi, Michikatsu decided to take matters into his own hands and buy a present for you. Michikatsu chuckled in response and wrapped his arms around you, planting a kiss on your forehead.

"You're welcome."

Yoriichi smiled softly at the two of you, grateful that you could make his brother smile and make him happy, especially on this holiday. All Yoriichi wanted for Christmas was to spend it with you and his brother, happy together because he loved his brother and cared for his happiness. Seeing Michikatsu smile was enough for him, and he was grateful because you made his brother smile many times the whole night.

After a few drinks, everyone was dancing and singing. Instead of giving the younger ones alcohol, you offered soda and apple juice because you did not want their parents to get mad at you for giving them alcohol. Since you were a responsible person, you kept an eye on the people who were drinking and prevent them from wrecking the house or cause a fight-- knowing how Sanemi was. Douma noticed that you and Michikatsu were cuddling in the corner chatting, so he decided to give you both a little push to kiss under the mistletoe to help out his friend.

Douma grabbed a mistletoe from Mitsuri and Obanai after they kissed under it, so he walked towards the two of you and smiled innocently. "Come on, love birds. You know the rules~" He cooed, waving the mistletoe underneath you. Of course, you didn't mind Douma at all since he was close friends with Michikatsu, but when you looked over to your boyfriend, he looked annoyed, so he decided to shoo Douma away.

"He seems nice." You giggled, laying your head on his shoulder as you watched everyone have fun and sing on your karaoke machine that you prepared a few hours earlier. You earned a grumble in response, so you decided to take matters into your hands. You cupped the male's cheek and turned his head towards you, kissing him on the lips before he could say anything. Once you pulled away from him, you found it adorable that his cheeks flared a bright red from the sudden kiss.

"Merry Christmas, Michi."

"Merry Christmas, babe."
