Jaehee x MC/Reader.

Christmas, Jaehee's Surprise; Final Update

Christmas day seemed to arrive in a blink. You awoke to Jaehee kissing you awake. "Time to wake up, it's Christmas!" Jaehee smiled excitedly, getting up. You stretched, sitting up, and looking at the time.      
       "7:00AM?! The RFA is gonna be here any minute!" You jump up, and hurry to brush your teeth and comb your hair, before rushing downstairs to start the Christmas cookies. "Ugh, why didn't my alarm go off..? Damn..." you cursed under your breath as you rolled the cookie dough into small balls, putting them onto a pan. Jaehee came down and began brewing hot chocolate.
"Oh, what kind of cookies are those MC?"
     "Peanut Butter! We already made so many sugar cookies, I figured some peanut butter would mix it up a tad." You smiled, putting the cookies in the oven before washing your hands. Just as you dried them, a firm knock could be heard. "Oh, they're here!" You hurried to the door and allowed everyone in. "Hello everyone!" You hugged Yoosung- the first one in, then 707, Zen, and you looked at Jumin for approval. Jumin had his arms full, both with presents and his beloved cat. He set them both down, before sighing a bit, and opening his arms slightly. You grinned, wrapping your arms around him. "Finally warming up to me, huh?" You looked up at Jumin, grinning, and he rolled his eyes, but otherwise didn't answer.

Everyone put their presents under the tree, and by the end there was a stack of gifts probably four ft. high. You could tell who's were who's by the wrapping. Yoosung's wrappings were lolol themed, Zen's had- well, himself on them, 707's had Honey Buddah chips on them, and Jumin's were unsurprisingly, covered in Elizabeth the Third. There was one small, flat present, wrapped in white paper, but you couldn't tell who it was from.

"I'm so happy you all are here!" Jaehee said happily, putting a tray of cookies down before making her hug rounds.
     "You've decorated quite nicely." Jumin said, looking around.
"Ah, thank you, Mr. Han." Jaehee said, using Jumin's formal name out of impulse.
     "Call me Jumin." Jumin smiled softly, before taking his shoes off, then seating himself on the reclining chair. Elizabeth meowed, rubbing her body against Jaehee's leg and purring.
"Ah, hi to you too, Elizabeth." "
     "No one said the cat would be here..." Zen groaned, sneezing. Everyone laughed, and even Elizabeth seemed to take notice, and went to pay her attention to Zen. "Ah! Keep your cat away from me- ACHOO!" Jumin just smirked.

You handed out mugs of hot chocolate, topped with marshmallows and whipped cream, while Jaehee passed the cookie plate around. You eventually took your peanut butter cookies out of the oven, allowing those to take the rounds. It took over an hour for everything to settle down enough to open presents.

"Oh, you shouldn't have!" You said, holding up a beautiful dress that Jumin gifted you.
     "It's no issue, I assure you. Thank you for this beautiful collar, Jaehee."
"It's no problem at all, Mr- I mean... Jumin." Jaehee smiled.
     "Woahhh! 10 bags of Honey Buddah chips?! Thank you, Seven!" Yoosung beamed.
"Eat to your heart's content!" 707 grinned.
      "Okay, who got me a mirror...?" Zen said, glancing up, holding the ripped up white wrapping paper. 707 started laughing hysterically.
"D-Do you like your gift?" Zen just sighed, then continued opening his gift from Jumin, which was a clearly expensive leather bike jacket.
     "Jumin... Thank you." Zen grinned, then picked it up to get a better look at it. From the bottom opening, a picture of Elizabeth the Third fell out. Zen looked down at it, and chuckled, letting it go because he did appreciate what Jumin got for him.
After a while, everyone had opening their gifts, and there was a huge pile of torn wrapping paper off to the side of the room. As everyone carried casual conversation and thanked each other for the gifts, you excused yourself to get the final present. The ring.

You returned, and cleared your throat to get everyone's attention. "Everyone, I have, one final gift." Your cheeks burned hot, but you continued. "Uhm, it's actually a Christmas gift, and a birthday gift..." You took a breath, before seating yourself next to Jaehee and handing her a wrapped box. It was big enough to fit some other small gifts, because you didn't want to make it too obvious what it was. Jaehee smiled and tore the wrapping paper, unlocking the box, and pulling the top up, gasping.

The ring sat in the middle of the box on a silk cloth. Jaehee picked it up, the ring now visible to everyone else in the room. You gently put your hands on hers. "Jaehee," you began. "This has been, by far, the best time of my life. Meeting you, moving in together, opening the shop... I thought I had a friend for life, but I've realized... This is so, so much more than a friendship. You agreed, and over these past months, our relationship has grown, and my passion for you has grown so greatly. I love everything about you, your smile, your laugh, the way you get so focused while kneading dough, every little thing... Even the way you snore while you sleep. I... I wanna hear that snore for the rest of my life, I wanna share the same bed for the rest of my life... I wanna share the rest of my life, with you... Jaehee, would you do me the incredible honor, of becoming my wife..?"

Jaehee-- and everyone else in the room for that matter, stared in utter awe at you. Jaehee smiled, tears beginning to well in her eyes. "Yes, of course I will!" Jaehee embraced you, kissing your lips with more passion than you've felt before. You kissed back, beginning to feel the burn of tears in your own eyes. Everyone began to clap, but only after you finished your passionate kiss with Jaehee.

The rest of the day was spent celebrating many things- Christmas, Jaehee's early birthday, and your engagement. You opened champagne and spent hours talking with the people who meant most in your life. These
people weren't just friends, these people... They were your family.
