Northern Lights

<~02~>

Walking into the toy shop hall that was connected to the reindeer pen and sleigh area, San imagined every scenario in his head that could go either right or wrong.

Wrong and right too.

This was getting into his head as he passed through the toy making and center list making machine. Elves working at their happiest to build and report who's been naughty or nice. Checking it twice.

Talking himself quietly up the stairs, "San, you're just gonna apologize. Hongjoong can't stay mad at you but my dad can," San kept rambling on his words of pros and cons, "even though I'm their only child and I have so many questions about the human world. They probably won't let me leave this place when I'm next in line to be what my dad wants me to be."

This was gonna give San a major headache if he kept rambling to himself.

So, shaking his head and taking a deep breath, his souls of his shoes stepping closer to the hall and standing in front of the arched dark wood door, a silver plate with music notes and candy cane designs surrounding the name.

It had Hongjoong's full name on it, since he's head elf. Making sure everything is on time and no danger in the North Pole.

Calming the nerves, the black hair young male took a few breaths to calm his beating heart as well. Raising a fist, gently knocking on the door to a festive tune that would be recognized.

"Come in."

Hearing the head elf's voice, making San nervous again, hands shaking to open the door open of the curved handle. Pushing forward, entering the office.

Glass wall window behind the elf, one side holding records and files in binders of shelving. The other side was pictures of him, the other elves, even San, his mom and dad.

Hongjoong had big eyes looking down at papers with his thin librarian type glasses. "Sit down San, make it quit because I don't have time to run around catching you making trouble." waving his ink pen signal San to sit down in the comfy chair.

"I...I know what I did was wrong."

"It was wrong of you to take snow globes of precious treasures like those. Making memories on a special holiday season." Hongjoong's voice sounded annoyed or irrated.

San gulped from the tone that was not good at all. "My curiosity of intrusive thoughts took over me." lips pouting and brown eyes that would start to tear up with sniffles.

"I just wanted to know what it's like in the human world but right now, I want to apologize for my wrong doing."

The fluffy redhead elf was listening carefully as he leaned back in his office chair with crossed arms. Aggressive speaking that would like to discipline the son, however he won't.

That'll get him fired easily.

"I'm sorry by 3,000...I should've known better for my own mistake. I just wanted to check out the snow globes and how happy they looked in each pretty glass sphere. Holding precious memories that can't be replaced." San was holding back his emotions to Hongjoong which was making him more nervous with those scary intense eyes.

"You should've asked permission. You're a grown magical boy—a young adult to be precise and in the human world you would have to work at a job." the redhead elf had a serious tone in his voice when warning San.

The son nodded and adjusted himself from sitting in a long period of time."I'll ask permission next time, I won't do it again Hongjoong, I promise."

Waiting for a response, Hongjoong couldn't get made at San for to long. He has a pure good heart for everyone and everything. "Alright, I accept your apology but on one condition, ask me about the snow globes or anything if you're curious in this building. You've been a trouble maker since you were little."
