"By the way, Where's Maki?" Sooyoung asks Sungjae who's now picking something to buy at the convenient store. "Maki, is at the animal hospital. I left him there for awhile, gonna fetch him this Christmas." Sungjae responds as they proceeded to the corner where the cold and sweet ice cream is to be found. "Want some ice cream?" Sungjae let's her choose and "Vanilla is for me!" Sooyoung says and grabs the ice cream. They then proceeded to the cashier.

"You know, sometimes it's weird." Sungjae mumbles. Lining up at the cashier. "What's weird?" Sooyoung asks and Sungjae responds to pointing at her wrist. "Your tatto is weird.", "Why is that weird?" She asks with a grin. "Cuz, we have the same tattoo. That's what you meant of—weird." She guesses as Sungjae agreed for it.

Its been quite long since they first met, then the second time they met, third and fourth, already doubting either if it was coincidence or fate. It's been long also since they are entangled to each other's business and even made crazy ideas and done crazy stuff.

Going back to when they first met and their first kiss. Well, it's an accident—maybe. It all started there. The day they got inked theirselves with a heartbeat tattoo. Then everything flows unstoppable. They meet again and again and now here. Talking to each other as a girl and a boy who's broken and wounded, comforting each other.

Friends slash best buddy they call each other.

"So how about you, this Christmas?" Sungjae asks her, now sitting in front of the glass window of the store. "Well..." She sighs, and sticks her tongue to her ice cream. "Same as you." He quiets for a moment as he did the same, just eating his ice cream.

Quiet they are as the sun slowly sets and the pinkish sky is seen vividly from where they sit. No one can beat this beautiful ending. The ending of the day followed by the night. And it goes on and on.

"I have some suggestion." Sungjae motions to her direction and sees her, with glistening eyes. "Will you celebrate Christmas with Maki... and me?" He asks her full of seriousness and sincerity with that question as she just smile wide and tried to tease him. "How come you became warm these days mister cold?" She playfully ask as he too, to be real, doesn't know the answer for that. He got offended a little but he let it pass, he just let her be. He shrug her off and looked away from her. "Tss. It's okay if you won't." He says coldly and Sooyoung besides him is grinning.

"Fine, fine. I'll do it." She confirms as he looks back to her. "I'll go with you, this Christmas Eve." She repeated, smiling. As he is more happy.

SOOYOUNG POV

Now, Sungjae and I are entering the dormitory's lobby. I told him that I'll see him around and that I'll go to my room first as he nodded and goes to his spot. I walked my way to my room and as I walk closer, I could already hear voices from outside of the room. Are the girls inside?

I grab the doorknob and slowly opens the door to be surprised with:

"WERE HAVING A SLUMBER PARTY!!!"

These girls, really. I sigh.

"Woah!" My reaction as I go nearer to them, gathering in the small bed. Yeri throwing me pillows. I could just smile and worry at the same time. "What's this?" I ask full of uncertainties. "Yeri, can't wait for the slumber party, look at her wearing what she bought." Wendy tells as Yeri as the little girl among us happily shows off her pajamas. "Unnie, It's pretty, right?" She asks as Sooyoung agrees no more. "Actually, we're going back to our room." Irene stood up from the bed and grabs Yeri.

"Sorry for this mess Joy" Seulgi added grabbing Yeri on the other side as the girl cries. "Unnie!!! We're still having a conversation!" I just laughed at this moment. I don't know anymore, these girls are the craziest person I know living. And I love them for that.

"Okay, Okay... sleep well, Yeri! We'll have the slumber party soonest!"

And let's go fast forward to that day!

> > > CHRISTMAS SLUMBER PARTY

I am now at the backyard of our dorm. Now that it's Christmas, the surrounding is decorated with lots of Christmas stuff. Color blue and silver is the motif. Me and my friends are gathered together in one corner wearing our pajamas and the other students were wearing different kind of sleepwear plus don't forget the pillows. Cuz will be having a pillow fight later. Another thing that will happen later is that we'll be having a gift giving or gift exchange.

Yesterday, we chose one person to give gift and the person I got is someone I didn't expect to get her name. Yes it's a her. You'll know it later.

But now, I'm back to the present. Irene left us for a moment as she goes in front to speak something as she is the president of this dorm.

"Merry Christmas everyone!" She shouts as the students greets her back. On her side is Changsub, he's one of the most trusted guy in the dorm also. Irene and him got to be the person in charge of our dorm.

"Hey!" I received a tap from the back. "Oppa!" It's him, wearing a fish slippers, he looks like someone who just woke up. "What's up!" It's Ilhoon, his friend. "Hello!" Wendy joins as we all greeted each other. Socializing and having conversations.

We had lots of conversation with the six boys

We had lots of conversation with the six boys. As they share to us that they have a band called BTOB and they sing and rap and composes songs. I didn't know also that Mr. Cold had this side. It's a weapon to tease him soon.

"Woah! So you all can really do that?" Wendy asks and amazed with their talents. "Yeah, we have the vocals here, Changsub Hyung, Hyunsik Hyung, Sungjae and Eunkwang hyung— he is having a business now. A cafe. Then our rappers, Peniel Hyung, Minhyuk Hyung and the best among them, it's me!" Ilhoon proudly says as the girls were awed at them. "We play instruments as well." Hyunsik furthermore added as the girls were just truly amazed.

"Daebak! You guys are amazing." Seulgi comments as the boys felt glad. "How about you girls? What's your jam?" Peniel asks them as the conversation goes along.

The night was filled with laughters and different activities and games

The night was filled with laughters and different activities and games. It was also fun, the pillow fight game. The game Yeri suggested. She knows really what's fun.

Now, it's almost midnight. The boys helped each other to build fire at the center of this backyard. Then we got ourselves something to sit on, making a big circle around the fire. With our gifts with us, it's time for the exchange gift.
