Christmas shopping was just as stressing as you remembered.
If not more, now that you had a certain someone you wanted to please.
without even checking your pocketed phone, you could easily guess that evening had already fallen upon the shopping mall you had been running around all day, and that was mainly because you had felt every stressful minute slip by and add to the looming deadline that was slowly getting closer as the hours slipped through your fingers like sand. the crowd of people swarming around you, being in the same boat you had found yourself in only served as more of a reason to feel panic, but at the same time, what could you have expected from a holiday rush such as this? even still, it took all of your willpower to not break down then and there, after all Christmas eve was tomorrow, and you still hadn't gotten a suitable present for your boyfriend of one year, mondo oowada.
though you had some things to congratulate yourself on, by mid December you had gotten gifts for all of your close friends, taka, chihiro, and even Leon as particular as he was, and you felt confident that they would love what you had gotten. you had remembered things that they had said they wanted in the previous months but never actually got around to buying it. so you had them taken care of, which made you happy. you knew they would love it, and the smiles on their faces when they opened their presents would be enough of a reward for you. however, that was the problem you had been running into with mondos gift, he hadn't really said anything about things he wanted, even when you asked him.
mondo was never too keen on material things unless they held some sort of nostalgic or sentimental value to him. all he answered with when you asked him for gift ideas was: "awe i don't know, i aint even thought about it". then he would hug you and say that having you here for christmas was plenty for him. however, his comment didn't bring much ease to your mind. you wanted to surprise him with something he would absolutely love, he had been such an amazing boyfriend to you for a whole year, you wanted to at least show him your appreciation for all hes done for you. you knew nothing could really show him just how much you cared for him, but you at least wanted to try to get close.
"okay taka is trying to hunt down leon so that gives us enough time to look a few more places, ill help you" a voice beside you said, you looked over and saw your best friend and helper for the day, chihiro fujisaki, look over the mall directory once again.
"thanks chi" you said with a sleepy smile, "i couldn't have possibly done this today without you, you're the best"
a small embarrassed blush sprang to his face, "awe (y/n), you know id do anything to help you out! now come on, it looks like there's a few more places we haven't checked yet"
then, grabbing your hand, chihiro led you down the main mall corridor, past the food court, and down an area you haven't searched yet. to pass the time, the two of you made small talk on the way.
"so you haven't heard from leon, huh?" you asked chihiro
"no sorry, last i heard taka was going to look for him but i haven't heard from him either"
When you had first suggested going to the mall with chihiro, he also brought up the idea of bringing both of your and mondos friends, ishimaru kiyotaka, and Leon kuwata. He thought that since they were in pretty much all the same classes as your boyfriend and were really his best friends outside of the crazy diamonds that they could give a second opinion on gift ideas. However, knowing that Leon had the attention span likened to one of a fly, it didn't take long before he got sidetracked by a new guitar in the instruments store, and ran off to check it out. That was hours ago, and nobody had seen or heard from him since. Eventually worry consumed taka, and he also ran off to try to find Leon. So that left just you and chihiro, which now looking back was the more less stressful option.
"I'm sure we'll find him eventually, I mean we're his ride home so If we don't find him then he'll find us" you reasoned, "besides, Leon's the least of my worries right now, times running out, if I don't find something good I don't know what the hell im gonna do"
