EXO IMAGINES

Chanyeol

You paced back and forth in your room and checked the time.

"Oh where is he..." You mumbled.

It was 10 'o clock on Christmas Eve. Your brother was suppose to get a Christmas tree, but he has been gone for more than three hours. Your brother isn't that smart, but he gets the best tree every year.

You gasped as you heard a tap on your window.

"Ahh we're not rich! We have nothing for you to steal! Go away!" You cried as you tried to grab the nearest object. You heard a loud knock this time as your brother's face appeared in the window.

"I knew you weren't the brightest person ever..." You said to yourself as you hurriedly opened the window.

A rush of cold air greeted you as Chanyeol climbed into your room. His face was red from the cold and he was shivering.

"Are you okay?" You asked draping a blanket on his head. He sat on your bed rubbing his hands.

"Why didn't you open the window? I thought I was going to turn into an ice cube!"

"Why didn't you use the front door?"

"Cause the tree's out there!" He cried.

"Really? Why?"

"I got a huge one this year!!" He used his hands to imitate a big tree. "It won't fit through the door so I left it out there. I thought you'd be in your room so I just went in through your window. C'mon, ______ let's go decorated it! Wear some warm clothes all right?" He asked. He already jumped off your bed and was heading toward the window again.

"Put this on," you gave him an extra coat as you started to put on sweaters and a scarf.

"Let's use the front door this time?" You asked.

"Let's not be mainstream," Chanyeol said as he climbed out the window. You rolled your eyes as you started to head toward the door.

You heard a loud 'thump' as Chanyeol cried "OWW!"

You shook your head and sighed. Opening the door, you headed toward the outside.

"Let's start!" Chanyeol said as he opened the box of ornaments. He starts to put them on and you smiled as you did the same. This last minute Christmas tree will be a pretty one.

Chanyeol has been there for you ever since your parents died. It was hard for both of you, but Chanyeol worked hard to keep you safe and sound and out of the orphanage. He dropped out of high school to find work and he made sure you had your education. Chanyeol may be the world's cutest idiot, but at the same time the world's most protective brother.

You came across an ornament and cried a little. It showed a picture of your parents, Chanyeol, and you at your tenth birthday. It was the last birthday you had with them. Your tears must have dropped on Chanyeol who was putting on lights at the bottom of the tree. He looked at you and you quickly wiped the tears away.

"Haha did you tree bite you?" He ask. He sat down on a step and he pulled you down with him.

"Trees can be really mean these days," he broke off a branch and held it up to your face. "Like this!" He hit your forehead with the branch and laughed. You couldn't help but laugh with him. He started to tickle you and you got up to run. Chanyeol chased you down the street until you ran back to the house and both of you guys were out of breath.

After a while, you saw that the stars have come up. Chanyeol and you laid on the front yard grass and looked up at the diamonds.

"Ya know? You're not the only one who miss them. I was mad at first. I didn't know what to do. I had you and everything else to take care of. How could they leave me like that. But I knew they didn't mean to. Things happen and you have to except them. They're not gonna be happy up there knowing that their precious little daughter is crying on Christmas Eve. Don't let me get in trouble okay, _____?" Chanyeol finished his sentence and you saw a tear fall from the corner of his eye towards his ear. You didn't say anything, but took his hand and held it tight. The night was silent until Chanyeol hopped up and said "I tell you what,______! Let's finish decorating the tree and sleep outside! Under the tree."

"Haha okay! Only you would think of that!"

The two of you finished the tree as you put on the star while standing on Chanyeol's shoulders and you went in to grab blankets. Chanyeol took forever.

You turned on the lights and the Christmas tree sparkled.

"Good night dongsaeng," Chnayeol whispered.

"Good night," you said as you closed your eyes.

Even though the night was cold, you felt warm sleeping next to Chanyeol. You thanked The Lord for having a brother like Chanyeol before drifting into a deep sleep.

Next day

------------------------------------------

"Hey wake up!" Chanyeol was shaking you.

"Hmmm?" You rubbed your eyes and looked around. Your eyes widened and you jumped out of your blanket and spun on the street.

"It's snowing! Oppa it's snowing!" You cried.

"Noooooo! It's raining mold..." He said sarcastically. He ran after you and picked you up. He twirled you in circles like he used to do when you guys were younger.

Chanyeol pulled you into a warm hug and smiled into your hair.

"Merry Christmas, _____."
