When I was growing up, I spent every Christmas with my family.  Since SHINee debuted, I have spent the past three Christmases with my hyungs.  But this year was different.  This was the first Christmas that I was going to spend alone.  Well...almost.

My family went to visit my grandparents on the other side of Korea, and I couldn't afford the time off to go with them, since their visit was three weeks and we only had two off.  Onew, Jonghyun, and Key all went to visit their families.  As for Minho-hyung, I was sure he would leave me too, and I would be all alone.  That thought scared me.  So I wrote him a note and left it on his pillow, begging him to stay.

Minho-hyung wasn't satisfied with that.  He kept asking me what I wanted for Christmas, and each time, I answered with just one thing.  "I want to spend it with you."  He granted my wish, but he had much more in store for me than I ever could have dreamed of.  Each gift was given directly from his heart, and with each one, my heart became his even more.

And now, my friends, I am going to tell you about the most wonderful Christmas of my entire life.

This story is my Christmas gift to all of you: to my AFF family, my Skype crew, my friends, my fellow 2min shippers, and just my fellow Shawols in general.  I hope you enjoy it, and please leave a comment!

Merry Christmas!

Hiatus status: Not officially dropped, but don't know if/when I'll finish it.  If I do, it'll be during a Christmas season.
