As the year comes to an end, the nights now longer, darker and colder had set in.

But, the love shared for each other kept them warm..

As everyone became settled in their respective new homes, they all shared their first Christmases together..

The snow had begun to fall and it was something more beautiful than before..

Jeongyeon and Nayeon..

Things had still been great for them, they were just happy to be together.. Although, they still heads like they always had..

Everything can't always be perfect, but they wouldn't have it any other way..

Nayeon remembers her last Christmas.. it was pitiful..

She spent it crying.. with a bottle in hand.

All she wanted was to spend the day with her girlfriend. She wanted to introduce Yeri to her family.. 

But it didn't pan out that way..

Yeri had been to a Christmas party the night before and got trashed. She was meant to attend a Christmas lunch at Nayeon's family home.

Nayeon couldn't contact the girl..

She called.. she messaged and got nothing..

Nayeon stopped trying.. she had to turn up and explain to her family "Oh sorry.. Yerim couldn't make it today, she had a change of plans.."

That humiliated her..

All she wanted was to have a nice day, and exchange the gift she had brought for Yeri, that she painstakingly went out of her way to get..

And she couldn't even enjoy the simple pleasure of seeing Yeri open it..

After lunch, she returned to her house in the afternoon...

She thought she would try calling Yeri again

"Hrm.. Hello" says the half asleep Yeri as she answers the call 

"Hi.. Merry Christmas.. or did you forget Yerim?.." says Nayeon coldly 

"Oh.. don't be like that Nayeon.. I'm sorry.. and I don't think it would have mattered to your parents whether I was there or not.." says the apologetic Yeri

"That's not the point Yerim.. you matter to me.. and you meeting my parents matters to me.." says Nayeon

"Ah.. well.. sorry.." says Yeri with a half hearted tone in her voice

"No you're not.. if you were, you wouldn't be saying it because you would have been there.. is this relationship even of any importance to you? I just wanted to spend the day with you.. is that too much to ask?" says Nayeon

"I'm too hung over for this Nayeon.." Yeri's says as she ends the call

Nayeon just threw her phone in a fit of rage and sits on the floor and cries..

As she was pissed off about Yeri's inconsiderate manner, she had already had a bit to drink at her parents house that she started to feel the effects of more now..

She went to get a bottle of something from the kitchen..

And that's how she spent the rest of that Christmas. 

Alone.. on the couch crying and drinking..

But not this year..

She has Jeongyeon who actually cares.. who's actually considerate.

She woke today with a kiss on the cheek.

"Merry Christmas Nayeon.." says the up and ready Jeongyeon 

"Merry Christmas Jeongyeon" she says with her bunny toothed smile 

"I made breakfast.." says Jeongyeon 

Nayeon just smiles and gets out of bed, but suddenly Jeongyeon comes and hugs her from behind and kisses her on the back of her neck, she moves her hands up to cover Nayeon's eyes.

"You can't peak" says Jeongyeon 

"Why.. I know what it looks like.." says Nayeon with amusement 

"You knew, what it looked like.." says Jeongyeon 

She leads Nayeon to the lounge room and uncovers her eyes.

Before, they just had a present each for each other.. that sat under the tree.

Now there is many more..

"Jeongyeon!" Says the astonished Nayeon

"Here open this one first" she says as she hands a small gift to Nayeon 

Nayeon unwraps the small gift.. it's a box..

"I felt you needed a new one that actually meant something..

This is only our first Christmas together.. but I promise there will be many more.." says Jeongyeon as she lifted her hand up and pointed at a ring on her finger

Nayeon opens the box, inside is a ring..

They now have couple rings..

"Check the inside Nayeon.." says Jeongyeon with a smile

J♡N

Was inscribed

Nayeon puts it on and then wraps her arms around Jeongyeon and kisses her.

"I love it... I love you, Jeongyeon.." she says happily with her bunny toothed smile

"I'm glad.. and I love you too.. But the other gifts can wait for now.. let's eat!" says Jeongyeon with a smile

Jeongyeon knew about what happened for Nayeon last Christmas..

And she had made sure this one would be one she would want to remember..

Again Nayeon was going to attend Christmas lunch at her parents, she'd introduce Jeongyeon to her family..

This year would be different..

She was happy..

She had someone that was really worth bringing home to meet her parents.

And she got to share the joy in watching her girlfriend open the gift she had got for her.. even if it was a joke..

(She had another surprise gift to give after this)

"A vacuum.. no wayyy"

Nayeon got all she wanted for Christmas this year..

And it's safe to say Jeongyeon did too..

Momo and Dahyun..

Were still just as smitten as ever..

They were to spend Christmas with Dahyun's family as Momo's was back in Japan .

But Momo had said to Dahyun that next year she wants them to spend Christmas in Japan with her family..

(And she only hoped that they would be spending it next year, how she plans for it to be soon..)

Dahyun was excited to introduce Momo and she was excited to meet Dahyun's family..

It was a lovely time..

Dahyun had small talk with her parents.. and they could only say how much they understood why she adored Momo..

And if there was any thing that Dahyun had wanted for Christmas.. it was that..

As they leave they make their way home, and enter the door hand in hand.

"So what did they think of me Dahyun?.." asks Momo

"The same as me" Dahyun says softly with a bright smile as she then places her free hand on Momo's cheek and kisses her.

Momo wraps her arms around her waist and walks Dahyun slowly down the hallway with a kiss every step till they find themselves in the bedroom..

Momo pushes Dahyun on the bed and begins to trail kisses down her neck, each touch and kiss becoming more wanting.

But she stops herself, again...

They'd been together now for 7 months..

And they hadn't crossed that line yet..

Momo couldn't.. she wanted to.. but wouldn't..

Dahyun never said a thing about it, anytime it happened..

She just didn't know why Momo stopped doing what they clearly both wanted to do..

"Momo.." says Dahyun softly as Momo pushes herself up off of her with her arms

"Sorry Dahyun.." she says as she removes herself and sits on the edge of the bed

Dahyun holds Momo's hand as she sits next to her.

"I haven't wanted to make you feel bad, so I have never asked.. but, why do you do that? " asks Dahyun

"Beacuse of your religion.. I want to respect that.." admits Momo

"Momo.. that's so sweet.. but I think everything we already are and have already done has broken pretty well every rule.." says Dahyun softly 

"I know.. I just feel you should at least keep one, one rule.." says Momo softly

"Just know I'd break every for you.. My idiot.." says Dahyun as she kisses Momo on the cheek

Momo just smiles.

Momo had something in a box for Dahyun.. she would have loved to have gave it to her today.. on the perfect day for doin
