Twice One Shots

Dubchaeng - The magic of Christmas

It was a December afternoon, and Dahyun and Chaeyoung, wrapped in the Christmas excitement, decided to explore one of Dahyun's favorite traditions: ice skating. The city was a winter painting, with snow covering every corner and twinkling lights adorning the streets. Dahyun, with eyes sparkling with enthusiasm, took Chaeyoung's hand, and they headed towards the ice rink, ready to immerse themselves in a magical experience.

Arriving at the rink, Chaeyoung was immediately struck by the beauty of the surrounding environment. Twinkling lights decorated the rink, and the atmosphere was filled with a Christmas warmth that seemed to dance in the chilly air. Dahyun, with a contagious smile, grabbed two pairs of skates and handed them to Chaeyoung with a playful expression.

"This is going to be incredible, Chaeyoung! Have you ever tried ice skating before?" Dahyun asked, her enthusiasm communicating in a contagious way.

"No, never. I'm excited, but I have to admit I'm also a bit nervous," confessed Chaeyoung, cautiously eyeing the skates.

Dahyun chuckled gently. "No worries, dear. It'll be fun, I promise. And if we end up falling, it'll just be a way to laugh together."

Dahyun helped Chaeyoung put on the skates carefully, making sure they were securely fastened. As they stood up from the bench, Chaeyoung felt uncertain, but Dahyun's warm hand in hers reassured her.

The ice skating rink turned out to be an enchanted world, with the sunset's light reflecting on the ice, creating shades of pink and blue. Families and friends enjoyed themselves, gracefully skating or smiling as they tried to keep their balance. Dahyun, with her infectious smile, took the lead, confidently gliding towards the center of the rink.

"First of all, let's learn to stand. Keep your arms slightly open to maintain balance," Dahyun instructed, her tone gentle and encouraging.

Chaeyoung followed the instructions, swaying a bit before finding stability. Dahyun smiled at her, conveying reassurance. "Good, you're making progress. Now, let's try pushing one foot forward lightly. Try to relax."

Amid uncertainties and laughter, Chaeyoung began to move with more confidence. Dahyun guided her gently, providing security with each step. "See? You're gaining confidence!" exclaimed Dahyun, enthusiastic.

The snowy landscape seemed to dance around them as they skated. Dahyun, with her radiant smile, made every moment special. "Now, try taking a little spin on your own. I'm watching, don't worry," Dahyun encouraged, stepping back slightly.

Chaeyoung took a deep breath and spun around, managing to maintain balance more confidently. A satisfied smile spread across her face as Dahyun applauded joyfully. "Fantastic, Chaeyoung! You caught on very quickly."

The two girls continued to skate, experimenting with clumsy pirouettes and contagious laughter. The ice skating rink became the stage for their laughter and shared intimacy.

"It's really fun, Dahyun! Thanks for letting me try it," said Chaeyoung as they skated hand in hand.

Dahyun smiled, happy to have shared this special moment with Chaeyoung. "I'm so glad you found it enjoyable. Now we can make ice skating our new Christmas tradition together."

With snow gently falling around them, Chaeyoung and Dahyun continued to skate, immersed in the magical atmosphere of Christmas and the warmth of their growing love. As the day progressed, the ice rink filled with colorful lights, creating a enchanting spectacle.

The sun was gradually giving way to a sky tinted in shades of red and purple, creating a lovely backdrop for the ice rink. Chaeyoung, initially unsure, had now learned to skate with a certain degree of confidence thanks to Dahyun's care and teachings. Their laughter echoed in the air, blending with the festive music coming from speakers scattered along the rink.

"Look, you're doing great, Chaeyoung! It doesn't take much to become a professional skater," joked Dahyun, affectionately squeezing Chaeyoung's hand.

Chaeyoung smiled, feeling more and more comfortable on the skate blades. "Thanks to you, Dahyun. I didn't think it could be this much fun!"

As they skated together, a gentle breeze brushed their faces, carrying the magic of Christmas. But fate had a small surprise in store. In a moment of distraction, Chaeyoung slipped slightly, trying to regain balance with waving arms.

"Oh!" exclaimed Chaeyoung, her heart beating a bit faster as she tried to regain stability.

Dahyun, ready to intervene, noticed the small mishap and, with promptness, gently grabbed Chaeyoung's hand. "Are you okay?" she asked with a concerned expression.

"Yes, yes, I'm fine. Just a little mishap," replied Chaeyoung, laughing slightly to mask her embarrassment.

Dahyun looked into her eyes with a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, it's normal. Even the most experienced skaters fall every now and then. The important thing is to get up gracefully."

Chaeyoung appreciated Dahyun's understanding, and together, hand in hand, they continued to skate. The momentary incident had added a touch of intimacy to their time, strengthening the bond between them.

The lantern lights along the rink began to shine more brightly, creating sparkling reflections on the ice surface. Dahyun guided Chaeyoung gracefully, almost dancing to the festive music. The momentary mishap was now forgotten, replaced by the beauty of the shared moment.

As the sky colored in nighttime hues, Chaeyoung and Dahyun continued their skating, suspended between the magic of Christmas and the joy of sharing every moment together. The cold December breeze seemed to carry away every worry, leaving only the warm embrace of their emotions. And so, hand in hand, they skated towards the nighttime horizon, immersed in the enchantment of a Christmas that had given them an indelible memory of love and companionship.
