Preparing for Christmas (AU)

Preparing for Christmas (AU)
------------------------------------------------

Thomas:

Thomas woke up to an empty bed. You were in the kitchen, preparing a to-do list with all the stuff you had to do to he ready for Christmas, which were in one week. He called out for you. "IN THE KITCHEN!" you shouted without stopping writing. Soon, you heard his heavy footsteps ,getting himself downstairs.

You turned your head in the exact time to face a sleepy Thomas, with his pajamas and a thick pullover on him, entering the kitchen. "Good morning. " He said and kissed your cheek. " 'Morning " you greeted back, without taking your eyes off the list. "What are you doing? " He asked. "I'm writing a list. " you responded. "'Bout what?" He asked again and took the paper. "Christmas things." You said.

You watched his eyes rolling from the one edge of the paper to the other, while reading aloud. "Bake cookies, buy candles, make invitations, search for recipe, buy new decorations for the Christmas tree,... wait ; what happened to the old ones?" Thomas asked.

You hesitated a smile full of guiltless and pointed out to the trash can. Thomas headed there and looked inside it. "Oh, (Y/N)!" He gasped. "I'm sorry, it was an accident. "You defended yourself. He pouted sadly at his favorite ornaments and turned back to you. "It's fine, I guess. " He said and kept on reading your list. "Clean the whole house, throw away old stuff, sent cards with wishes, buy presents. .., how the Maze are you gonna do all that in five days? I mean, clean the whole house?" He seemed to believe it was impossible. "But,.." you say and reveal to him a duster that you had been hiding behind your back, ".. you are gonna help me." You laugh at him pouting.

Newt:
"(Y/N), sweetheart, I can't find them." Newt says as he runs down the stairs from th attic to the living room, where you were setting the Christmas tree. "They must be there, somewhere." You say.

I can't belive he can't find three big, red boxes!

"I told you, I looked everywhere. The decorations are not in the attic." He told you. "Then where are they!? We always store them there when Christmas are over, every year for three years now!" You complained annoyed. "Well, I can't find them. I swear, I looked everywhere. There are no boxes like that in the house. ". "So what are we gonna do? Not decorate? You must find them, quickly. " you told him . "I'm the one who should search for 'em? Why don't you do it?", "As you can see ,I'm busy setting this damn tree up. "

You had been trying to do it for half an hour but it was so heavy. And although you knew you couldn't do it, you didn't want to ask for his help. Every year it's the same: He sets the tree, you bring the ornaments from the attic. This year, you wanted to be different.

"Then let me do it and you go find the bloody boxes." Newt suggested. "No." You denied. "(Y/N)..." He looked at you straight in your eyes with that i-know-you - can't-set-the-tree-up-admit-it look on his face and you gave in. "Fine." You surrendered and run up the stairs to the attic.

You were ready to dig in the storing chests and search for the boxes, when you noticed the three red ones on a self, above the window. "Jeasus Christ, that's too obvious. " You mumbled and get to go get Newt to reach the tall self.

Minho:

You guys were unpacking the boxes with the Christmas decorations in your garage.

"Found them!" You stated playfully when you found the garden ornaments. "I go place them. Minho, do you mind untangling those?" You told him and passed him a big mess 9f tangled Christmas lights. "Okay, I'll do it." He starts untangling them and you exit the garage from the car opening to be found in the garden.

You start placing the fake deers and the little Santa Claus. After a bit you hear something from the garage falling and hitting on the ground, then boxes with things in them fall too and Minho's voice screaming your name.

You run in the garage to find a tangled Minho laying on the floor and several boxes being turned upside down, with the content of some rolling all the way down to Minho.

"Minho!" You gasp and help him up. He is still so tangled with all those lights and they are lighting ! "Why did you plugged them? It's dangerous, you might get an electric shock! " you say.
"I thought it would be easier to unscramble them by seeing what colours they light. Look! These are white and these are blue and here are some colorful. " He acted like a child and you giggled. "Come on, let's free you from your fetters. " you joked.

You both tried hard and you made a little progress. "Damn, I can't belive you made this happen!" You question. "Well it isn't really that hard." Minho says and you both burst out laughing. He then pulls you in his arms and kisses you. "Merry Christmas. " He whispers. "Merry Christmas. " you whisper and kiss his lips again.

Gally:

"Gally, honey, could you please help me?" You ask Gally who had been watching TV the whole time you were placing the last Christmas decorations. "In what?" He asked without taking his eyes off the screen. "Here." You say and give him a paper. "What's that? Chicken, pork, sauce, potatoes, wine,.. what's all that?" He looks at you. "What do you think? It's a list. Go shopping, Gally, I don't have enough time to do it myself." You said sarcastically the first sentence.

Gally looks again at the list. "How many are they? I bet more than fifty products. " He says. "Yeah, they ain't gonna be cheap." You say. "Why all this? Are we having guests? " Gally asked. "Of course we are. We're having our friends for Christmas dinner,which is tomorrow, so you gotta hurry. ", "Isn't Minho the one who invites us for Christmas dinner every year?" Gally asked confused. "Yes,but this year we're doing it. Minho will have us there for New Year's Eve and Thomas and Newt has the celebration of Newt surviving the Flare and Thomas not pulling the trigger that day. Oh Gally, it's the same every year, five years now, don't you remember? " you say.

Gally stands up and kisses your forehead. "Of course I remember. See ya in a couple of hours." He tells you ,grab his coat and the car's keys and leaves.
