Christmas was coming up quick and with it came festive activities, including Christmas MCC. MCC was one of your favourite times of the month, so you were beyond excited for your favourite holiday’s edition.
Today you were teaming with Dream, George and Sapnap, so you could say you had the dream team for the event. The only problem being Dream. Not because you didn’t like him, but because you liked him a little too much. Knowing he was on your team was a little worrying, you weren’t sure how well you’d play knowing he was watching.
You’d started streaming a mere few minutes ago, doing a quick intro before talking with chat. Not wanting to spoil your MCC costumes, you were currently only showing your starting soon screen. After a couple more minutes of chit chat, you get a message from Sapnap telling you to join the vc so you can reveal your costumes.
“This is it chat, you ready? Our costumes are sick!” you click the join button after ending your sentence, instantly being met with greetings from your teammates and friends.
“Alright, on the count of three we reveal. 1, 2, 3!” All of you start sharing your screen to show the 4 of you standing in a line.
The 4 of you decided to go as components of a costume rather than match. Each of you were dressed as part of a Christmas tree; Dream as the actual tree, George as the star, Sapnap as the baubles/ornaments and you as the lights. You see your chat spamming how much they love your costumes and how excited they were for this year’s Christmas MCC. A few minutes of chatting with your team goes by before an abrupt exit.
“George call me real quick” George agrees and the two leave the vc to do God knows what. You’re silently cursing them as soon as you hear the disconnect noise.
“What the hell are they doing?” You laugh at Dream’s tone before also voicing your confusion.
“I literally have no idea” you glance at chat to find them talking about a so called ‘SNF ritual’ they do before every MCC.
“Apparently there’s a ritual they do before any MCC so I assume they’ll be back soon” you let Dream know of the info you received while he hums to let you know he heard.
Wanting to pass time until your friends returned, you ran around looking at and rating everyone’s costumes. There were some reindeers, cute matching scarves and hats and Christmas sweaters. Once you’d rated everyone costumes, you realised Sapnap and George weren’t back yet.
Curiosity getting the better of you, you pull up George’s stream to see what exactly they’re doing while you wait. The stream opens to Sapnap standing in front of George while he stands a block higher. Sighing you close the stream again, not sure why you expected anything different from your two friends.
“What’s wrong?” Dream had clearly heard your sigh by how worried he sounded.
“I decided to check George’s stream to see what they were doing and saw Sapnap simulating a crafting table scenario” Dream wheezes and you couldn’t help but laugh along with him. A minute of silence passes.
“If we have to play build mart then I’m gonna cry” you had to agree with Dream’s admission because build mart sucked.
“Honestly me too” you both laugh before getting interrupted by your teammates rejoining.
“What are you two laughing about?” There’s a certain edge to Sapnap’s voice but you couldn’t place what kind.
Unfortunately for the returnees, the countdown to the start of MCC rings out. The four of you cheer in unison and make your way to the decision dome. All the players pour into the decision dome and enter their respective areas. Your team decided to try and get build mart over with, so that your better performing games could be played when more coins were up for grabs. Luckily other teams seemed to have had the same idea as build mart got the most votes.
The game ends and your team- the red rabbits- comes in 5th, which is better than you were expecting. The next couple of games went by smoothly with your team getting second in both. Throughout the games, you and Dream had exchanged more than just friendly banter. This resulted in not only teasing from your other teammates which just got worse each time, but also your face to put the red in red rabbits. It was now time for the next game which ended up being battle box.
“Ooh we got this, we got this” Sapnap was certain your team’s pvp skills would win it.
The first match was against the yellow yaks. Each of you chose your tool and got ready to fight. Shortly after the round starts, you’re cornered by two members of the opposing team.
“THERE’S LITERALLY TWO, DREAM HELP” you call for Dream automatically and your request is granted soon after as Dream runs up and helps you kill them both.
During your scuffle, both Sapnap and George had been killed so it was up to you and Dream to finish them off. Although they’d managed to take down one of the yellow yaks with them. Your team emerges victorious and this pattern continues for about 70% of your rounds.
Your team was sitting in 2nd place quite comfortably and there was only one game left, the final. Being in 2nd meant the red rabbits were facing off in dodgebolt.
“Okay, we funnel. Funnel to Dream everyone” nodding to yourself you hear the others agree. Getting ready, you adjust your sitting position and take a sip of water.
“This is it, chat!” Your chat is almost as excited as you are, nerves at an all time high.
When the game starts, your team lets the other team grab the arrows. One of the arrows hits you and you shift your focus to cheering on the remainder of your team. They manage to win the round and you all break out in a cheer. Unfortunately the next round results in a loss, meaning it all came down to the final round.
“We can win it, guys! Funnel!” Agreeing with your statement, you all take your positions.
The opposition’s arrows all miss the first time round and George manages to hit one of them. Eventually it was just you and one member from the other team left, an old fashioned standoff with one arrow each.
“You got this, y/n!” Dream’s words calm your nerves a little.
“Do I shoot or wait for them?” The Dream team tells you to wait so you do. They shoot soon after and you dodge it easily.
“AHH OKAY THIS IS IT” laughter sounds from your headphones at your panic.
Taking a deep breath you aim the bow. You follow the opposing team member for a second with the bow before taking the chance. Before you can register if your shot hit, giant words are displayed on the screen showcasing your victory. The team call erupts in excited screaming, while you’re just shocked. Glancing at your chat you see them spamming tonnes of different emotes.
“Y/N I COULD KISS YOU RIGHT NOW” you didn’t think you could get more shocked but you were proven wrong.
“Please do” it unfortunately doesn’t register that you’ve said it out loud until your teammates react.
“Y/n?” George’s voice is what alerts you to your mistake. Your hand quickly slaps over your mouth, followed by your head falling into your hands.
“Look, just pretend that never happened” your voice comes out muffled through your hands.
“Well, I mean I’d like to” your head shoots up at the sound of Dream’s voice and you quickly wrap up your stream upon seeing Dream had already done so.
Your phone rings soon after and you and Dream excuse yourself from the team vc, with knowing laughs from the other two. Dream takes the opportunity to ask you out properly.
This MCC will always be your favourite.
