Jaemin smiles watching the small figure in front of him nervously waiting for the elevator's door to open as she swings on her tiptoes nonstop. The door finally opens after going up some floors, since he lived in a high apartment. It's your first time in his house since you started dating, which is not so long ago, and is also the first time spending the Christmas with him.
The excitement is huge inside your heart, and also your nervousness. You had talked to his parents before, but now you're really going to spend an important date with them, so everything must be perfect. You must show them why you're a good choice for him, the same way he is for you.
You walk to the door just to look back, waiting for him to open it. Jaemin chuckles of your cute behavior, even if he had said you don't need to worry about formalities. At the same time, he knows very well who his girlfriend is. Of course you would worry about these things, that's why he fell in love to begin with. You were always like that. Cute, polite, careful, affectionate and lovely.
He smiles patting your head, making you a little confused by his sudden action, but it quickly vanishes away when he opens the door. Getting in first, he pulls you by the hand, telling his parents he got home.
-Mom! Dad! We are here! – He says and you gulp, taking a deep breath.
Even feeling nervous, you could notice how this apartment is awesome. Detailed decorated in each part of it, taking your breath away. Your eyes shine, not even knowing where to look, but then his parents come walking in fat steps, with a wide smile on their faces.
-Y/n! We were looking forward for you to arrive. We are so happy to have you here. – Jaemin's mom says, and you chuckle shyly. Having them receiving you so well is a relieve, but at the same time they are always like this. Just like Jaemin. People with a beautiful heart.
-Thank you for calling me to spend the Christmas with you. I'm very glad. I wanted to bring something for the dinner, so I made a dessert... - You say handing to his mom a platter.
-Ooh... thank you. You didn't need to. It looks very good. – His mom says, quickly putting it on the table to give you a hug. – And what are those bags in your hand, Jaemin? – His mom asks Jaemin who laughs.
-Presents from Y/n to us. I told her that she is the guest tonight, but she wanted to buy something for us too. – He says, going to the Christmas tree and placing the presents next to the others, making it even fuller than before.
And just like that, the night started. At first you were worried if you were saying everything right, wanting to impress Jaemin's parents, but as the time went by, you were feeling at home. Talking to them was never so easy, and specially his mom couldn't be more excited to have another woman in the family. And in the middle of all this party, your eyes are also on him, on Jaemin. He is particularly handsome tonight. Maybe it's the atmosphere of love and peace that Christmas always brings to you, or maybe because he is happiest as ever. Even when you tried to keep your focus on the conversation, his gaze firmly checking out your face doesn't fail to make you shy.
His hands would intertwine with yours, listening to you talking with his parents, telling them stories of your childhood. His fingers caressing your skin, the warmth of his arm around your shoulders, his little enchanted smile. Everything is so perfect that it looks like a dream. Such sync between you two even had his parents laughing, finding so cute how his son was so in love with a cute girl he met some months ago. Jaemin wasn't the type of boy to bring many girls to meet them. On the contrary, he used to say he was waiting for the one with a good heart and a good soul, until he finally met you.
At the end of the night, after the dinner, the conversations, family stories, games and presents, the house is quiet. Quiet in a peaceful way. Warm as the chimney's fire burns calmly. You let out a long breath, snuggling closer to Jaemin on the coach. Leaning on his shoulder never felt so good, making you even a little sleepy as his essence feels so close.
-Wanna go outside for a bit? - He whispers to you in a calm tone, and you raise your head, looking at the window. Through the glass you can see little flakes falling. It's snowing beautifully. You turn your eyes to him nodding in pure excitement, making him chuckle.
You two go out feeling the chill of temperature breaking in your body. It's cold, but it's still so beautiful. The roofs of the houses are painted in white with little dots in yellow of the streetlights. You stretch out your hands, trying to get a snowflake, seeing it melting when touching your skin. A pair of arms suddenly wraps you in a back hug as Jaemin touches his cold cheeks on yours, now already red by the shyness of having skinship on his parents' house. You turn around, meeting his face only a feel inches of yours, checking your face out as if it the first time he had seen it. He remembers each little detail of it, yet he never gets tired of looking.
-Should we be doing this here? If your parents see it, I will be embarrassed. - You say, hiding in his chest, and he smiles, finding your shyness so cute and so innocent.
-They are inside. I also wanted to spend some time with my girlfriend. - He says as his eyes switch from your eyes to your lips.
-As if you hadn't spent time with me the whole night. - You joke, and takes his hand to your face, caressing your cheek.
-Some time alone. Just you and me. A moment just for us. - He says, and you smile. Of course he was talking about that, but still, hearing him saying it is a perfect way to make your heart flutter. - Look. - He points up. - A mistletoe. - He says, and you frown seeing a tree branch with white berries in it. - Do you know the Christmas tradition of mistletoe? - He asks, and you look at him, shaking your head. - It says that whenever someone stops under a mistletoe, you have to kiss. - He says with a naughty smile, and you laugh.
-You're messing with me, right? Just to get a kiss. - You say getting suspicious, and he laughs.
-Of course not. It's a tradition. I swear. - He says as his hands go to your waist, slowly pulling you closer. - So...? Can I get a kiss?
He always uses this tone of voice, knowing it never fails to get what he wants. What could you do when he is the combination of everything that enchants you? And just like that, you see his face slowly getting closer. Your eyes unconsciously shut and a smile takes place in his lips. He plays with you, brushing his nose on yours, affectionately pecking your cheek first.
What first felt so cold, now starts to get warm as your heartbeats go faster, feeling his lips connecting with yours. Your hands rest on his shoulders, as you feel his mouth opening, making you forget anything else. He has this warmth within his soul, something that captivated you from the first touch, and now he is even closer than before, sharing every single piece, melting you in his arms.
You get carried away, kissing his lips deeply. Giving in totally, letting him explore all of your love, diving even more as you switched sides. Long breaths form heavy steams in the air. It's even frustrating how good he can be on that, leaving you no space to say no and push him away. Your hands slightly pull his neck, and you feel him smirking in the middle of the kiss, making you realize he did it again. He will surely brag about that later, that he knows you love his kisses so much, but now it doesn't matter (not when his fingers hold your chin, making you stay still for him to bite your bottom lip).
-I think they are outside watching the snow- Oh! - You suddenly hear someone opening the door, startling your heart out of your chest. You look above his shoulders and his mom is there, giggling and covering her mouth in shyness. - Sorry! I interrupted. I will come back later. - She says quickly closing the door and running inside.
You whine, hiding on Jaemin's chest as she starts to laugh again.
-Argh...! See? I knew it would happen. - You say hitting him on the chest. He chuckles, holding your hand, intertwining it.
-There's no problem, love. It's ok. They don't mind it. - Jaemin says, still not seeing your face.
-I'm so embarrassed. - You mumble, feeling him pecking you in the head.
-No, don't be. How's it gonna be when you have to kiss me in the altar in front of everyone, ugh? - He says, and you look up fast, seeing a smile on his face.
-That's... different. - You say in a low tone as your gaze deviates from his. Jaemin grins, stealing a peck from your lips.
-Good, because I want everyone to see us. To see you with me. - He says, and you smile, coming back inside again.
