joy to the world (christmas special!)

xiaojun's pov

"so christmas jumpers"

"check" kun ticked a check box on a relatively short list.

it was the early hours of the 25th, and the group were sitting at the dining table

"food"

"check"

"presents"

"presents…" kun trailed off, staring into the distance as if he was trying to remember something. squinting his eyes, he looked towards dejun. "you haven't got presents yet, have you?" dejun shook his head slowly.

"pick them up on the way, you only need to get 5 anyway"

_

"close your eyes" dejun stepped into the car and placed the bag of presents on the seat. ten groaned. "zip it, close your eyes". "fine".

he took the presents out of the bag (a camera for ten, a phone for sicheng, a computer for kun, a stereo for hendery and a nintendo for yangyang), placed then in a red and green boxes and tied ribbons around it. "ok, im ready"

"so what did you get me" kun lightly slapped ten's face "shut up you" "i just wanted to know" "you'll know when we get there now-"

dejun drowned out anything else, closing his eyes and softly dozing off, sleeping for the rest of the ride.

_

as soon as the four stepped in they heard a high pitch scream "AY KUN MY MAIN MAN"

"hi doyoung hi yuta" kun, sicheng and ten ran to find their freind groups leaving dejun by himself. the latter took a moment to look around the entryway. a large waterfall staircase curving around the large doorway, fancy doors leading to the adjacent rooms. tall windows leading up to the fourteen foot ceiling let the 'sunshine' in, illuminating the hall. he took a small step into the room and all eyes were on him. "HI DE-"

"SHUT UP"

"WHY"

"BOTH OF YOU SHUT IT"

"WHY"

"BECAUSE"

"WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING"

"YEAH, WHY ARE WE SHOUTING"

"ᵉᵛᵉʳʸᵇᵒᵈʸ, ᵉᵛᵉʳʸᵇᵒᵈʸ ᵖˡᵉᵃˢᵉ ᶜᵃˡᵐ ᵈᵒʷⁿ" a small smile played on his lips as he watched mark, his classmate, try to stop the madness.

suddenly he felt two hands on his shoulders, he tensed up. sensing the fear, he reassuringly squeezed his shoulders "don't worry, come with me" he lead him to a three-seater at the furthest corner of the room and sat down. "im sungchan, and this is shotaro" the otter-like male next to him waved. "your dejun i assume" he nodded. "hendery and yangyang couldn't stop talking about you". "me?", dejun looked over sungchans shoulder at the two staring eagerly back at him, they smiled and waved at him and he waved back.

'weird' he shook his head. "they're so whipped" sungchan nodded as if he was agreeing. "but they're dating" "i heard they're polyamory though"

"mc'scuse me?" sungchan pursed his lips "just saying".

"alright everyone gather round, it's time for gifts. whichever one of you is the youngest goes first, i don't know theres too many of you" an extremely stressed looking brown haired man with an eyebrow slit stood next to the christmas signalled everyone to come over.

_

everyone had opened their gifts and a tall male had turned on the stereo, blasting christmas songs. ten, winwin, kun, shotaro, sungchan and dejun were vibing on the dance floor when yangyang pulled him away.

"we got you a special gift. well, gifts…we got three" he handed him three boxes, one small, and two relatively bigger. "open them" hendery urged him.

he placed them on a nearby counter and opened the smallest one, a necklace. "wow, this is so pretty" he put the chain in the clasp, closing it around his neck "thanks"

he opened the next one, a headset. his eyes widened in disbelief "isn't this like 40 thousand won?" "it wasn't that much" 'rich people'

he opened the last one with a smile, a journal.

"its so you can vent your feelings when life gets tough." feeling eyes starting to tear up, he blinked them back. "thank you" he opened his arms for a hug and they gladly accepted. "thank you so much".

the music switched to all i want for christmas is you and dejun leaped out of their arms, running to find a mic of some sort. "is he okay?" "dunno"

once he found it he started singing, quiet at first but gradually gett louder and louder. their jaws dropped.

sicheng sauntered towards them, ten at his heels. "close your mouths boys, might catch some flies in there" but even he was shocked.

what was once a solo turned into a duet and then a trio and by the chorus everyone everyone was singing.

"ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU BABY" and the song ended. taeyong, the browned haired male from earlier grabbed a megaphone and shouted "MERRY CHRISTMAS" everyone cheered.

dejun smiled, this was quite possibly his best christmas ever.
