the groups fourth christmas together was definitely going to be an awesome experience for not only the 9 idols, but also for many orphans across south korea. the boys (minus seonghwa) and their managers had been planning this for weeks upon weeks and it was all to ensure the oldest and the female members enjoyed their free time for the holiday.

"come on, hyung. everybody else is awake, now, and we have a busy day today," wooyoung said, shaking seonghwa awake as yeosang woke up aislinn. yeo was feeling daring this morning and took the girls minion plush out of her arms but that ended in the male being kicked there. once he had recovered, he settled on just shaking her lightly.
once those two were awake, they showered and got dressed, their outfits matching unintentionally. seonghwas outfit consisted of a beige cardigan, some white jeans, and white nike trainers. aislinns outfit consisted of a beige cardigan, a white denim skirt, and some beige flats with a cute beige beret to finish it off. the pair prefer to not wear a shirt under their cardigans for some.. odd.. reason.

"okay, so what are we doing today, boys?" aislinn asked as her and seonghwa walked into the kitchen where the other 7 boys sat.

"youll find out soon. now, sit down and eat," hongjoong said, shovelling a pancake in his mouth. the pair just nodded and sat at the table, eating their food.

"okay, and we are here!" the manager said as the group pulled up to a large white building. the 9 idols got out of the van and a large smile appeared on aislinns face as she saw the sign overhead. 서울시 서남권 글르벌 센터. the boys laughed at her before heading inside, aislinn clinging onto seonghwas arm as they both internally died, knowing they would get to play with adorable kids.

"hello, welcome!" the lady at the front desk greeted. "ateez?"

"yes, thats us," hongjoong smiled at her.

"right this way," she said as she led the group to the main hall. "we have quite a few fans of your work, here," she smiled before opening the doors. "kids, guess whos here!" she called. everybody stopped what they were doing and turned to the door before some of the younger kids ran to the group. its easy to say that aislinn was the most popular.

"wah, youre all so cute!" she squealed, earning a laugh from the adults and some of the teens in the room. she picked up the little boy infront of her and rested him on her hip before walking over to a table, watching some of the other kids draw and paint. the boys watched her with loving smiles – it had been a while since they had seen their girl look so happy. "youre so good at drawing! i wish i could draw like that," she said to one of the girls as she watched her draw a flowery landscape.

"do you want to draw something, unnie?" the girl asked as she held out a pencil and a piece of paper.

"what should i draw?"

"can you draw me?" she asked, looking up to aislinn with puppy eyes.

"it wont look very good but i can try!" aislinn chuckled and got to work after setting the young boy down on the floor. it took a while but she was soon finished and showed it to the girl.

"woah.." the girl said in disbelief as she stared at it. "am i really that pretty?"

"youre prettier than anyone could ever capture in a drawing of you," aislinn complemented as the girls cheeks went pink.

"th-thankyou," she said shyly.

"now, whats your name?"

"my name? yeji, son yeji. well, thats my korean name, my birth name is alexis."

"thats a nice name, it sounds almost as pretty as you look." the young girl blushed more. "can i, perhaps, take a picture with you?" alexis nodded and aislinn took out her phone before taking a cute selfie with the girl.

"lina?" san called from his spot on the floor with two little boys, one of which looked like he was about to start crying. aislinn sighed and smiled at alexis before going to san and picking up the now crying boy. she bounced him on her hip and he eventually started laughing.

"now, why were you crying, hmm?" she asked as she rubbed circles on his back to calm him down further.

"you really do have a way with kids, huh?" yunho spoke as he walked over to aislinn and wrapped his arms around her waist. "they are just so attached to you."

"shes the kid whisperer," wooyoung laughed, joining them.

"noona! come and play with me!" a slightly older boy shouted.

"ill be with you in a second, okay?" she replied with a smile as the boy pouted at her words. "woo, can you take this little guy?"

"sure thing, noona," wooyoung chuckled as aislinn handed him the now sleeping boy.

"oh, you wait till we get to the van," she glared at him playfully before waking over to the boy who had called her over. "what do you want to do?" she asked him.

"dance! i want to learn one of your dances!" he said with a really big smile.

"do you know which one?" she asked as she got her phone out.

"treasure! but, can you please dance to it first? i want to watch you." aislinn nodded and played the song, dancing to it. "woah, you are so good!" he complemented as he jumped off his seat to hug her after she finished. "can you teach me, now?"

"of course i can. so, lets start with the chorus first, hmm?" the boy nodded and stood infront of her, ready to copy her moves.
aislinn spent the next half an hour teaching the boy the dance, for which he was very grateful, whilst her members took pictures and videos of the pair (the 99 liners posted quite a few of them to the groups social medias).

that day, the group went to several orphanages, spending time with the kids and giving out little gifts, also donating a fair amount of money to them (most of the donated money was from the company, but some of it was from the idols themselves and the gifts were entirely yonghwas money. she said that there was no point in having a black card if she couldnt put at least some of the money to good use and not spend all of it on chicken).
