christmas cookies
pairing: zhang hao x fem!reader
genre: (childhood) best friends to lovers
in which: you and hao bake christmas cookies together even though you are both fire hazards in the kitchen.
warnings: reader chokes, kisses, lowercase intended !! in love and concerned hao, fluff fluff fluff, not proof read !!
series masterlist !!
“hao stop it!” you shout shielding yourself from the flour which is currently being thrown at you.
“nuh uh, this is payback!” your best friend says back while grabbing another handful of flour to throw in your face.
as of right now, you are about an hour into your baking experience with hao and it’s been eventful to say the least. in the time that you have currently spent trying to make cookies together you have:
1. remade the dough
2. dropped three eggs on the floor
3. got butter everywhere
4. remade the dough again
5. thrown flour at hao
6. finally put the cookies in the oven
7. gotten flour thrown at you
8. fallen even more in love with your best friend (and you didn’t even know that was an option)
to be completely honest you’ve been harbouring feelings for hao ever since you became friends when you were kids. he was just so charming even at the age of 5 (he gave you his spade in the sandbox) and you just couldn’t resist the cheeky little prince that the universe so graciously gave to you.
even now, at the ripe age of 23, the two of you continue your tradition of baking christmas cookies together without somehow burning the kitchen down and you just can’t seem to take your eyes off of your best friend.
he is always so kind and thoughtful towards you, although it may not show in times like this where he’s attacking you with flour, and with each passing day you find yourself falling for him more and more.
you wouldn’t exchange this for anything in the world. what more could you want during christmas other than laughing with your best friend (read; the love of your life) while making sugar cookies with christmas songs playing in the background and the fairy lights-
and apparently a coughing fit to interrupt the moment. (it turns out that breathing in flour isn’t the brightest idea.)
“woah are you okay?” you hear the laugh in hao’s voice immediately disappear as he puts down the bag of flour and runs over to you while patting your back. “i’m sorry i didn’t mean to make you choke” he says sheepishly as you catch your breath again. he fills up a glass of water and hands it to you.
“no it’s okay” you say while taking the glass. “thank you” you say after taking a sip. you look at hao only to find him staring back at you already. you notice he starts to move towards you holding out his hand which you soon feel resting on your flour-covered cheek.
he wipes away the tears which you didn’t realise have formed while you choked on the flour but doesn’t take his hand away while you stare into his eyes. his eyes flicker down to your lips momentarily as he starts leaning closer to you. you close your eyes and lean up towards him. you can almost feel his breath on your lips when-
beep beep
the cookies are done.
he immediately pulls away and you turn away from him thankful for the flour on your cheeks for covering the redness which has bloomed on your face.
“sorry, i’m sorry” he says and massages his neck. “you go and get cleaned up i’ll get the cookies” he says and you leave as quickly as possible.
you hop in the shower quickly to get rid of the flower in your hair. did that really just happen? did i really almost kiss my best friend.
that is all you could think about during your short shower along with what do you do next? do you bring it up? do you stay quiet? do you go up and kiss him?
despite all of your rushing thoughts you threw on one of the shirts hao gave you and walked back into the kitchen.
“the cookies are basically cooled now so we can decorate them soon” you heard hao say as if nothing had happened.
“oh that’s great” you said a bit disappointed that he decided to ignore the situation. you thought that maybe this could have finally been the time where you could have done something about your feelings for him. “you go clean yourself up i’ll get the decorations out” you said with a forced smile and he left the room but not before shooting you a slightly worried look.
you let out a small sigh after he left the room and your eyes teared up slightly at the thought of him basically rejecting you. you got all of the decorations for the cookies out and set them on the table. you blinked away your tears quickly as you heard him coming back into the room.
“i got all of the decorations so we can start now” you said trying to put a slightly cheery tone in your voice.
“finally, this is my favourite part” hao said with a smile.
now it’s been about half an hour of cookie decorating time and you decided that you want to tell hao about your feelings outright to get a straight answer.
you’ve come to your decision because these past thirty minutes have been filled with nothing but subtle and not-so-subtle touches from hao some of these consisted of:
1. his hand brushing yours while reaching for the sprinkles
2. him putting his arm around your shoulder while grabbing something on the other side of you
3. him holding you by your waist to move you over so he can stand where you stood
4. wiping icing from your cheek (and staring lovingly into your eyes)
so with the final cookie you had you wrote across it as neatly as you could in icing ‘i like you hao. christmas date with me?’ and waited for the right moment to give it to him.
what you failed to notice is how hao started at you the entire time you were decorating the last cookie. he saw what you wrote and smiled the widest smile anyone could have ever seen.
next thing you know you see a cookie being slipped towards you with ‘yes :)’ written on it messily. you look over at hao to find him staring at you yet again with nothing but love in his eyes.
you smile at him and burry yourself in his chest after putting your cookie down. he reciprocates the hug and wraps his arms around your waist.
“i cant wait to take you out” he whispers and you lift your head to look at him.
“i cant wait to go with you wherever you take me.” you say with a soft smile. “i’ll always be happy wherever you are. you press a light kiss to the corner of his lips and before you could even pull away hao places a hand on the back of your neck and pulls you back in for a proper kiss.
