Of Holibae Dates and Chistmas: A Confession

Mist only wanted one thing for Christmas.

He scanned his room, looking at all the anime merchandise he owns—posters plastered on his wall, and the BL mangas stacked on each other on his study table, and also filled his shelf.

He didn't want a "thing", to be exact. Mist wanted to be with the person he likes on Christmas eve.

He wanted to celebrate it with Chad.

Chad was a courier for Hokage Express, so he would always see him because Mist ordered a lot of (weeb) stuff online. At first, he was really addicted in buying merchandise and mangas he sees online, but later on it became an excuse to see Chad. It was also the time Mist realized he had a crush on him.

Mist stood up from his bed and took his phone from the table. He browsed his contacts, and stopped at Chad's name.

Mist was socially awkward — he finds it difficult to start a conversation to anyone, even to his friends. He always waits for the other side to approach, which is why he is in a dilemma right now. He stopped ordering online because he was saving up for the holidays so he hasn't seen Chad ever since. He wanted to go out with him, maybe take a walk in the park or watch some move, but Mist couldn't do it. He was shy, and he felt that Chad would just reject him.

Still, he had to try.

This is no time to be afraid, he told himself. Looking at the mangas on his shelf for support, he clicked on Chad's name. However, before he was about to press, a name popped on his screen: it was Chad calling him!

Mist, not expecting that he would get a call from Chad, panicked and accidentally ended the call. He cursed at himself, and prayed that Chad would call again.

The screen brightened—Chad was calling him again. This time, Mist didn't hesitate.

He answered the call.

"Hello?"
"Hey, Mist."

Silence. Mist was clueless on what to say next, so he waited for Chad to say something.

"So...uhm...I'm sorry I called. Didn't realize it was this late."

Mist looked at the time: it was three in the morning.

"O—oh. Haha, I didn't notice! W—why did you call?" Mist asked, blushing.
"You see, it's only a few days 'till Christmas and I was planning on giving you something...but I couldn't decide on what you would like. I mean, I could buy you the usual things you order online but I didn't want to buy something that you may already have. So..."
"Oh! Ah, anything's—" Chad's face came to his mind. He continued, "Anything's fine with me! W—would you l—like to exchange gifts? This way I think it'll be more fun."

Although Mist did not see this, Chad gave a sigh of relief and smiled.

"Sure, that would be great. So I'll see you—"
"A—actually, wait!"
"Yes?"
"D—do...do you think we can go out before Christmas? Just...if ever you're free! We can also look around for gifts, if that's okay with you."
"That sounds good to me, Mist. Let me know when you're available."
"Okay!"
"Okay, you should sleep now, it's late. Good night."
"Good night, Chad."

That night Mist slept well.

The next day his Granny woke him up and told him they had to start decorating the house. He took the box full of Christmas decorations from their storage room, and planned how they would decorate the house. Since the house was really small, it was easy to decorate. However, with just the two of them, Mist felt that it would be hard, especially since his Granny is a bit old. He doesn't want his Granny to do anything which may cause an accident, so he decided to call Chad for help. Chad said it was okay, and that he will be here in a few minutes.
