60: Christmas Eve

All I Want For Christmas is You - Mariah Carey

_______________

It's Christmas Eve.

And to say Jungkook isn't feeling the Christmas spirit would be an understatement.

Being grumpy and sullen sounds like the perfect way to go.

Another week has passed after Woosung and Taehyung's fight and it felt as though the soul was sucked out of Jungkook's body. It's not like he was in the same shoes as Jimin to how he was after his break up with Joshua, but he used that time to reflect on a lot.

On himself.

On Taehyung.

Just on everything around him.

He felt the pieces of his heart still shatter but he was not one to be easily knocked over because someone in his life isn't there because of certain circumstances. It's not like he isn't use to it already.

Yeosang has been growing better after the beating. The following morning, Jimin made them a big breakfast and bought Yeosang a bag full of pain killers and cream for the bruises. It was slightly suspicious at first, Yeosang growing slightly panicked that Jimin saw him in his state but they took the kind gesture from the healing man. Jimin spoke more openly to Jungkook now, talking about things that would light up the room just as his slow smile would, anything to cheer the hallow ravenette.

It worked, definitely, but Jungkook was still in his heartache so those moments of joy always faded away whenever he opened the door to his room, alone.

Yeah maybe Jimin is right.

A change of scenery is definitely needed after all the fucked up shit that's been going on here.

Now in this Christmas Eve noon. Jungkook had to roll out of bed lazily because of Jimin demanding for him to come to the kitchen while blasting Christmas music, clearly feeling the Christmas spirit.

It seems as though Jimin has been growing better and better around the two brothers. He smiles wider at them now and is comfortable enough to  do gentle taps on their shoulder as physical contact, a sign of comfort in his way.

And that's definitely an improvement.

"WHAT!" Jungkook whines, swinging the door open to his room to be blasted with the full force of the pop Christmas music and the scent of hot chocolate and.... Cake?

Jimin is practically floating around the room like a pretty butterfly as he hanging up Christmas decorations, setting a few presents on the Christmas tree, and setting a Santa hat to Yeosang's head as the child sits on the couch with eyes ready to explode.

There's no denying he's getting intense flashbacks of the Christmas tree falling on him three times while they were decorating it. He was just always in the line of direction when it would collapse until Jungkook managed to set it at a good angle. Jimin went crazy decorating it with silver and gold ornaments in such an elegant way that made it feel almost as if it was cut out from a fancy magazine.

Truth is.... Jungkook and Yeosang obviously never had that home type of environment as Jimin has been displaying lately, especially on Christmas. They never celebrated anything. So being here, seeing Jimin's efforts in having the full Christmas spirit is almost exciting but so weird.

In a good way.

"Help me frost the cake!" Jimin yells back, emerging from the kitchen with a plain one level cake on a flat plate with his baggy chick onesie.

That's another thing too, Jimin has been wanting Jungkook out of the room often. It could be for the most simplest thing in the world and he would be calling out his name to help him with something or just for anything. Maybe he just doesn't want Jungkook to be stuck in his room all day, or it's possibly because he wants to spend more time with his roommate.
