BTS MOMENTS: OT8 - CHRISTMAS COOKIES

It was difficult to plan Christmas around being a member of BTS. Their diaries were planned to the last second, December being the worst month with performances and award shows, two members' birthdays in between and barely getting to see your family. In the early days, there was no money to do anything, now there was no time.

Christmas was important as well. Grace had grown up in a mixed household in England where Christmas was all about spending time together, eating food, Christmas shopping and presents, and decorating the tree. Koreans did things a little differently but her mother made sure that was Christmas still the same until Grace entered the idol world.

And from there Grace had to take what time she could.

The dorm always had a tree, stuck in the corner near the large windows, decorated in a mix of red and gold. There would be a hint of Christmas in every room including the bathroom where she swapped out the towels for Christmas themed ones. Every bedroom door had a wreath hanging from it, decorated and designed to match who it belonged to.

Dinner and presents were never an option as they didn't have time so it was always done at the company where they could spend time with staff who had given up their own Christmas' for whatever BTS was doing.

This year, Grace was determined it was going to be different.

They had three days off where they could enjoy Christmas, albeit a little early.

She had gone into full Christmas mode - starting with her mother's famous gingerbread cookies.

"Oh it's started," Jimin grinned as he came out of his bedroom, still looking half asleep as he wandered into the kitchen. "Ooh gingerbread."

"Don't even think about it," Grace gently slapped his hands away from where some gingerbread cookies, shaped like stars, were chilling on the counter after being in the oven. "I've got plenty to make and I've got some decorating things if you wanna decorate them."

"Let me call in the reinforcements then," Jimin spun around and headed back down the hallway.

Taehyung was first, already awake and showered with a Christmas jumper on then Hobi followed soon after, pulling a ridiculous Christmas hat. They turned on the music speaker that was near the TV, putting on the classic Christmas playlist they found on Spotify.

The two of them soon cleared off the dining room table, Jimin joining them after taking a quick shower himself.

Namjoon clambered out of his room at the sound of the noise coming from the kitchen, taking one look at the chaos before grinning and soon returning dressed and ready to go.

And finally, the last three slowly crawled out of their pits to join in on the Christmas cookies. Most of the cookies went into six mouths while Seokjin and Grace took over the kitchen, getting more cookies out and starting to organise their Bangtan dinner.

It wasn't much in terms of a Christmas weekend but it was enough for them to spend time together, Christmas cookies, dinner and movies and do nothing for three days until their manager came knocking.
