Hyunjin x Felix series 2

Where Hyunlix met X-mas

(If you know Roman numerals you'll get the pun in the title<3))

"Our first Christmas together. Are you excited?", Hyunjin asks.
"I never celebrated it."

"You haven't?"
"Nope. My parents didn't, so I didn't."

"Well, I'll make sure this Christmas is the best one you'll ever have."
"You don't have to go through so much trouble."

"Nonsense. I love you and I plan to make this special.", he kisses the younger's forehead.

Next sunrise Felix wakes up in the bed alone and hears noise coming from out the room. He made his way to the living room then halts his steps when he saw Hyunjin decorating the tree.

"Woah."
"Morning, babe."

"What's- you decorated the whole house?", he looks at the kitchen and saw it was decorated too.

"You like it?"
"It looks..great. Are you sure you're not overdoing it?"

"Of course not. This is how I always do it. Is it too much for you?"

"No I like it. I can tell you worked hard."
"Not really but thanks."

The older finishes the tree then plugs in it.
"What do you think?"

"It's looks amazing.", Felix walks over and the older wraps his arm around him.

The younger smells something strange. "Is it real?"
"Yep.", he smiles.

"You bought an actual real life tree?"
"Yeah. What's wrong?"

"What if there's a squirrel in there or something?"
"I assure you there's no squirrel. I checked."

Just then something moves inside the tree branches and the younger takes a step back.

"You were saying?"
"It's probably the wind."
But neither windows were open nor the ac was on.

"Really?"
"Don't be afraid. I'll look."

The older takes a cautious approach towards the tree then takes a peek between the branches.

"I don't see anything." He checks up top.
"Anything?"

"Uhm..", he backs up.
"What? Is it a squirrel?"
"Maybe. Or...a bird."

"What?! You can't tell the difference between a bird and a squirrel?"

"Well I didn't get a good look."
"Sigh. This is what happens when you get a real tree."

"I don't understand. That bird or squirrel had its chance to leave. Why didn't it?"

"Well, while you ask it I'm leaving.", he walks back into the bedroom.
"You can't leave me. Babe."

"I don't want to be in a house with an animal that has diseases."
"Please stay, Lixie. I need you."

"For what?"
"In case it attacks."
The younger was unmoved.

"How about I'll put it in the backyard, so it can leave."
"Fine."

Felix assisted him with moving the tree, but remains cautious.
"Wait. I have to unplug it. Gasp! Felix."
