Could I request a headcannon of the RFA+Saeran+V getting caught under the mistletoe with MC. Maybe they get a little flustered when MC kisses them or maybe they initiate it (it's up to you) ps I love your writing!
Right, I lovethis, but I have absolutely no idea how mistletoe lives in the wild, so, ifthere are any factual inaccuracies what am I say, there’s 100% some pls letthem slide and don’t yell at me, I’m sensitive and just wanna write cuteromance
Also some ofthese might not be 100% REAL mistletoe but like, mistletoe shaped, hope that’sokay :)
The two ofyou are throwing a holiday party at Jumin’s condo
It’s a smallparty, just RFA members and close friends
You’re havinga fun time, but still, you’re running around keeping track of food and how theguests are
You take amoment in the kitchen, eating some food, sipping some wine
You’re notstressed, but it’s nice to step back and just breathe, watch your guests enjoythemselves
You feelJumin approach you from behind, his warmth a comfort
Leaning back againsthim, you feel one of his arms stretch up and around you
You glance upand see a small, dark green sprig, adorned with soft white berries
“Mistletoe?”You ask, tilting your head back to smile at him
“Tis theseason” He hummed, a soft smile spread across his face
His handtugged on your hip gently and you turned around to face him, leaning up to kisshim
Your lipshave barely met before you hear Zen fake gagging
You chuckleas Jumin pulls you closer, starting to argue with the actor
You’rejogging with him one winter morning
The sun’sstill rising, its rays glinting off of the thin coatings of ice along branches
There’s alight layer of snow across the ground, though the path the two of you arerunning on is clear already from even earlier morning joggers
Zen suggestsa pause at an upcoming sitting spot along the trail
It’suntouched in the brisk air, snow lining blades of grass, a bench topped withsnow
You pull yourwater bottle out of backpack, enjoying the quiet beauty of the woods thatmorning, your cheeks stinging and your nose warm
“It’s gorgeousout this morning,” You comment, turning to look at Zen
“Everymorning with you is gorgeous,” He says while stepping closer to you
He smiles,tucking a strand of hair that had come loose from your ponytail behind yourear. “Wanna know why I suggested we pause here?”
Your cheeksare red for more than your run or the chilled air. “Why?”
He leans hisface in, pausing centimeters from your face as his eyes dart up above you
Turning yourhead slightly, you see a bushel of thin, green leaves poking out from beneath asnow coat
You have timeto identify the plant before Zen tilts your chin up and your mind is occupiedby the feeling of his lips against yours
“So, what doyou think?” You ask, glancing at him
He squints,thinking. “I think,” He nods his head subtly, raising his hand to point. “Yeah,let’s go with this one.”
You grin,picking up the fuchsia plant from the garden store’s shelf
“What’s next?”He asks, leaning against your shoulder to get a glimpse of the “to-get” listyou wrote up together last night
“Let’s see,we’ve gotten a good amount of flowering plants, wanna check out some herbs orfruits?”
While walkingpast the row of herbs lined up, thinking about which ones you and Yoosung usemost in cooking, you pause, recognizing the bundles of freshly cut branches beingdisplayed above the potted herbs
You grin,grabbing a cutting of mistletoe and going over to Yoosung on the other side ofthe cart
You tap hisshoulder, pressing a kiss to his lips as he turns
His face goesflush and he goes to adjust his glasses. “Wh-what was that for?”
You wave themistletoe as an answer. “Found some mistletoe, I had to.”
He breaks outinto a grin. “Don’t you have to be underneath the mistletoe to- you know?”
“Ah,” youglance at the plant then back to Yoosung, raising your arm to hold themistletoe over your heads. “You’re right, I guess we’ll have to try again,” Humming,you lean close to him once more
You’rehumming along to the radio, the kitchen lit with a warm glow from the lightsabove and out in the main room of the café
Jaehee comesback in, tying an apron around her waste
You laugh, “I’mjust about to finish up, you don’t need an apron.”
“It’s bettersafe than sorry,” She responds, flashing you a smile as she steps closer
She inhales throughher nose, the air full of sweetness
“They smelldelicious, right?” You say
“Hopefullythey’ll taste just as good,” She responds, flicking on the oven light andbending down to look at the cookies
“Your recipesare always amazing, don’t worry so much.”
The two ofyou continue chatting, you crack open the oven every minute or so to check onthe cookies before deciding they’re done and pulling them out to cool
“Oh!” Jaeheeexclaims, “You shaped them!”
“Yeah, I thoughtit’d be good; you know, ginger cookies during the winter, might as well have atheme, right?”
Jaehee nods,smiling as she looks at the mistletoe shaped cookies. “It’s a perfect idea”
“I have aneven better one,” You announce, picking up one by the edges and blowing on itbefore holding it out to Jaehee.
She leansforward, her face flushed ever so slightly, and takes a careful bite
She nods,chewing, and you can see her thinking of ways to improve on her recipe already
You leanforward, kissing her cheek softly
Her eyeswiden as she looks at you, and you decide she’s never looked more beautiful,with gentle golden light falling on her face and hair, a few crumbs on the cornerof her mouth, her eyes full of you
“Goodcookies?” You ask, leaning back a bit
She nods,trying – unsuccessfully – to hide the smile spreading across her face
The doorbellchimes and you lean back to glance at the door monitor
You grin,jumping out of your chair and navigating past the security to the entrance, signingfor the package and running back inside
You open thesmall package as soon as you shut the door, glancing around to make sure Seven hasn’tmoved
Holding thegift behind your back, you make your way into Seven’s computer room
His back istowards you, computer alert noises coming from one screen, game notificationsfrom another, some kind of radio can be heard faintly from the earbud danglingfrom its partner in Seven’s ear
“What came inthe mail?” He asks, the clack of his keyboard barely audible through the restof the sounds
“Oh, there’ssomething for,” You answer, walking up behind him
You lean overhis back, keeping the object behind your back for now
He tilts hishead back, smiling up at you. “Oh? What is it?”
You grin, movingthe small plushie you bought up and over your head
The plushiewas a mistletoe sprig, but the berries were little cat heads
“A kiss,” Youhum, moving to kiss him
Upside downkisses are always awkward, but worth it
You’re on awalk together during a fall afternoon
For someonewith so much information, he knew little about plants
You, on theother hand, had been a plant lover since you were small
So, the twoof you like to take walks, Saeran will point out different plants and you tellhim about them
It’s a funtest for you, getting to practice what you know, and he likes listening to you
At this point,there’s not many plants that you haven’t talked about – well, not that many alongthis path
The walks arestill good though, you talk and get to be alone together
The two ofyou are passing some woods, his hand keeping yours warm
The coldearthy smell of fall surrounding you
You’relooking up at the sky and the trees next to the path when your eyes light upand you tug on Saeran’s hand
“Oh! See thatbundle of leaves along the branch there?” You ask, pointing towards the plant
Saeran nods,looking at you in confusion
“Well, it’scalled mistletoe, have you heard of it?”
He nods again.“It can help with arthritis, right?”
You blink,having forgotten that. “Yeah, yeah that’s true! I forgot that, good job.”
He smiles,glancing down. “Well, if you weren’t thinking that, what were you going to say?”
“Right~ Yousee, there’s a tradition around mistletoe,” you start, tugging him closer to beingunder the mistletoe. “It’s supposed to represent love, so, when underneath anymistletoe, two people are supposed to kiss.”
As soon as youfinish your sentence, his eyes go wide and he glances up, then back to you. Hiseyebrows lower. “Really?”
You nod,miming an “x” on your chest. “Cross my heart.”
He seems tobe having trouble deciding if he was nervous or suspicious. “I mean – you saythat, and have just walked us underneath this plant…”
“Uh huh,” Yousay, stepping closer and leaning towards him slowly
His face wasstarting to match his ginger hair
“Are – isthis, do you want –?” He stammers, eyes now darting up and down
“If you wantto,” You hum, lowering your gaze to his lips
He gulps,staring at you before yanking you close and presses his lips to your, eyessquinted shut
You’re startledby his sudden movement but smile into the kiss, sliding your arms around himand holding him close
You’ve neverseen him this red before, and you can’t but chuckle, kissing his check
The two ofyou continue your walk, both smiling, your hands holding each other tightly
You frown, pickingthrough the bin full of props
“I don’t know,”You call out to V, who’s standing a few meters away at the photo stage fussingwith the set. “If you want a dappled shadow like that, I still think getting anactual branch and leaves would work best.”
He smiles atyou over his shoulder. “I’m sure you’re right, but I’d like distinct shadowsthat the faux plants make.”
Nodding, youplunge deeper, exclaiming as you find something that might work. “How aboutthis?” You ask, heading back over and waving the prop over your head
“Perfect!” Hesaid, taking the fake plant from you as you get to him
He hums, examiningthe mistletoe before eyeing with a soft smile. “This is good for more thanphotos, you know?”
“Oh? How so?”You ask, leaning against him as he wraps a hand around your waist
You giggle asV pulls away from the kiss, his face suddenly nervous and shy
You placeyour hands on the sides of his face, pushing his glasses up to the top of hishead. “You’re right, that has many uses.” You hummed before pulling him back
