12 Days of Christmas

Ornament Spree (Sungchan x you)

First day of Christmas #Sungchan

Ornament Spree

It's the day after Christmas, the merriest night has passed and you're more than delighted to meet your family and had a nice feast. Yesterday was great with all of you buying presents and playing white elephant. You won a speaker and that is something you did not expect you'd get on a white elephant game. Your big family decided to gather in your parents' house, where the grand Christmas tree stood up in its glorious form. You're proud to say that the ornaments you hung with your brother look super pretty on the tree and that everyone is praising the Christmas tree in the hall. It was all good until your uncle got pretty drunk from chugging eggnog too fast and he bumped the christmas tree. Though you think it is sturdy enough, turns out some of the decoration fell and break. Even worse, the main focus which is the star also toppled down and shattered into pieces.

Since everyone was in their Christmas mood, no one was making a fuss out of it. The maid cleaned up the shattered pieces and party continues like nothing happens.

But when the guest left the house and you were just chilling by the fireplace with your brother, Jaehyun, your mother came in and asked you a favour.

"(Y/n), I am sorry to disturb you and Jae, but can you please go to the store tomorrow and buy us some decorations, we have some more guests tomorrow and we do not want to greet them with a plain tree right?" Your mother walked gently into the room and brushed a hand over your hair.

You sighed, "Why me? What about Jae?"

Your brother laughed, "Apparently, I am invited to attend a lunch Christmas celebration tomorrow in my girlfriend's house. Sorry honey I cannot come with you."

You rolled your eyes, "When does the store open?"

Your mom shook her head, "Not sure, you can search it up in the internet and find the one open for Christmas. Usually they're close, but I know you can find it!" she planted a kiss on your head and then without listening to you, she left the room.

You punched your brother's thigh and he yelled in pain, "What was that for? It's Christmas we shouldn't be mean to one another!"

"Oh I've gotten my present already, I can be naughty now." You taunted at him and he laughed too when he realized that was a great answer.

"Look, I'm sure you will find a store. Worst case will be going to the mall but try the stores we usually go to." Jaehyun patted your back, "I'm sure that will be a nice activity while you wait for our guests. I'll be back before noon." He stood up.

You turned your head to follow his step, oh he's leaving too.

"Good night (y/n)! Merry Christmas!" he sent you a heart and you just shooed him away.

Knowing there was nothing left to do and everyone seemed to be in their room already, you made your way to your bedroom and drove to dreamland. At least mother did not ask you to wake up early and go to the stores.

You woke up late the next day. Jaehyun was gone already and your mother and father were also away, maybe visiting the orphanage they always visit on Christmas. Lunch was prepared nicely for you and as you enjoy the snow falling outside your window, you scrolled through your phone looking for shops that are open on the 26th of December.

You almost lose hope when the nearby stores are closed and that you have to go to the mall which is an hour drive from home. Quickly you glance to the big grandfather clock in the house and noted it's almost one already. The quickest you can be on the mall is at two, and then look for Christmas decorations. Well luckily mom said to just grab a set and the star, but still an hour drive in the cold winter day by yourself is not pleasurable.
