You reached into the box to pull out your gift. A bark escaped the box. "He got you a puppy?!?" Yoosung exclaimed, standing up suddenly.

"Not exactly..." Seven rubbed the back of his neck nervously.

"It's awesome!" You said happily as you held it up. It was the robot puppy Seven had made before the party. It was blackish-grey with a tan belly, ear stripes and spots above it's golden, glowing eyes. As you held it up, it wagged it's tail and moved it's legs. "I love it! Thank you so much Seven!" You exclaimed.

"I took out the fire-breathing feature so it wouldn't burn down your house, " He explained, "But it has teeth... so it can still protect you when I can't..." As he looked down at you, you saw a heat and intensity in his eyes that you had started to notice in the past few months. Most of the time you tried to ignore it, mostly because it made you nervous. Nobody had ever made you feel that way before. Zen cleared his throat from across the table and Seven looked away. You tried to calm your racing heart, sure that everyone could hear it.

"Should you name it? It IS a robot..." Jaehee muttered

"O-oh! I guess I should name it shouldn't I?" You stuttered "I think... I could call him..." Unable to think of a name, you glanced around the restaurant. Spotting a Christmas sign, an idea popped into your head. "I will call him 'Chris'!"

"Chris?" Asked Jumin

"Yeah! Chris! I got him as a Christmas gift... so Chris!"

"Makes sense." Jumin shrugged

Seven took the box off the table and put it in between you and him. "[Y/N], we should put Chris in his box."

"Huh? Why?" You asked, still holding Chris.

"Pets aren't allowed in the restaurant." He replied, matter-of-factly.

"Awww... okay. Bye Chris." You cuddled him to your chest and he leaned into you. After putting him in the box, you turned and looked at everyone. Most of them were looking at you and Seven weirdly. You felt your face flush as you fumbled for something to say. "Uh..."

Seven suddenly burst out, "Let's order food! I'm starving!" and buried his face in his menu.

"Yeah let's." Zen replied

Was it just you, or was Seven blushing? It was probably just you. Ignoring it, you turned to your own menu.
