"Tae, get the Christmas tree!" I exclaimed as I pulled the ornaments out of the box. I smiled. I opened another box and I pulled out the stockings.

It's Christmas time. Me, my parents, and Taehyung have been decorating all day. Tomorrow is Christmas. We're so late because of everything that has been happening. Taehyung's dad and everyone in the gang got arrested. His mom got a new job and is doing awesome on her own. My bullet wound healed up perfectly and now is hardly visible. And finally, Taehyung and I have taken a shower together ever since that day at the hospital, however, we still haven't had sex. Which, I would love to have but Taehyung says that he 'doesn't want to hurt me'.

"Kookie!" I blinked. Taehyung was in front of me, waving his hand in my face.

"Why are you spacing out? I've already put the tree up." Taehyung chuckled.

"Sorry, I'm just thinking." I smiled. I started to decorate. My parents walked into the living room. They smiled.

"Hi, lovebirds." My dad said. I rolled my eyes playfully and looked at them.

"Where did you two go?" I asked.

"The store to get presents." My mom answered.

"Me and Tae did our Christmas shopping last week." I said. My parents nodded. They put their gifts under the tree.

"Well, you kids sure got the house looking festive." My dad said, looking around. I nodded.

"Yep." I said.

"The maids helped us out." Taehyung added. I nodded.

"Well, it looks great. Finish decorating the tree and we will have some hot chocolate." My mom said. Taehyung and I nodded. My parents walked away. We continued to decorate.

"So, what do you want for Christmas? You never told me and I never picked up on anything you said... I still have time to run and get you something." Taehyung said, putting lights around the tree.

I thought. What do I want for Christmas? All I've ever wanted is friends. I've got that. Taehyung to get out of his father's house. I've got that. I don't really need or want anything, to be honest.

"You don't have to get me anything Tae, thanks." I smiled.

"Oh come on, there's something you have to want, Kookie." He chuckled. He started to help me with the ornaments.

"Not really. I'm fine." I replied.

"Do you want... " Taehyung named off a billion things, to each I gave a small head shake.

We were soon done decorating. The house was looking great. I smiled and picked up the boxes and I carried them to where we were storing them. Taehyung followed me, carrying other boxes. When we finished, we got hot chocolate and we walked to my room. We walked inside and I closed the door. We sat down on my bed and cuddled while we drank our hot chocolate.

"So, what do you what?" He asked. I looked up at him.

"I told you, nothing." I smiled. He sighed. He placed his now empty cup on the nightstand and lightly grabbed mine, placing it on the nightstand as well. He looked at me and kissed me.

"What *kiss* do *kiss* you *kiss* want *kiss*?" Taehyung asked, pulling away. I giggled and grabbed his shirt. I pulled him closer to me.

"I *kiss* don't *kiss* want *kiss* anything *kiss*." I answered. He moved to where he was on top of me.

"Well, if you don't want a materialistic thing, what do you want from me?" He asked. I looked up at him and shrugged. He sighed.

"C'mon, Kookie. Please tell me something you want. I feel bad not getting you anything." He said.

"I don't know of anything I want." I said. He sighed and then smirked. He leaned down to my ear.

"You want sex?" He whispered, kissing my ear. I giggled and pushed him away.

"I dunno, maybe." I answered. Taehyung sighed and he rolled off of me.

"I only have a couple of hours to figure this out and you're not helping." He groaned. I smiled and cuddled into his side. He wrapped his arm around me.

"Sorry." I whispered. He kissed my forehead.

"I'll figure it out." He sighed.

"What else do you want to do?" Taehyung asked. I shrugged.

"I kinda want to cuddle. I'm cold so you need to keep me warm." I said. Taehyung smiled and pulled the blanket over us. He turned onto his side and wrapped his arm and leg around me. I cuddled into his chest and buried my face into the crook of his neck. Taehyung rubbed my back.

"Are you going to take a nap?" He asked.

"Yep." I answered. He chuckled.

"I love you." He said.

"I love you too." I replied. I then drifted off into a light slumber.
