💏 Our muses meet under the mistletoe - Accidentally or on purpose is your choice!
Christmas/Winter Starters | Meme Day Dec. 13
It was a silly little Christmas party for the individuals of Rosewood Dorms, but it was still a fun chance for an excursion with Haruhi’s friends. It was honestly fun, just knowing these were the people she would have memories of as the years began to pass. Even though she hadn’t made the definitive decision to be here--and she didn’t believe in fate--she was thankful for whatever led to her being in Wonderland.
As Haruhi talked to someone, the girl had been sure she felt a hand in the middle of her back as she stumbled forward, quickly catching her balance as she fell into someone. “Sorry,” she muttered as she glanced up and found herself staring up at Mei, a blush creeping onto her face. “Ah, Mei. I-uh.” Her eyes widened as she saw a small decoration above the two. The snickering behind her was enough to quickly confirm her suspicions.
“There’s mistletoe,” she said, she closing her eyes as she laughed. Haruhi looked back at Mei before the embarrassment caused her eyes to shift down. “You know, it’s just a silly little tradition.” Her eyes locked back with his. “We don’t have-”
Despite her reluctance, Haruhi found herself leaning onto the tips of her toes as her lips touched Mei’s. There was a warm fluttering in her chest as she felt her eyes close for the very few seconds that the kiss lasted. It was small, it was fleeting, and it was enough for Haruhi to dream a little that everything could happen and be good.
When she finally pulled away, her face was hot as she landed back down onto the flats of her feet. She was aware of how quickly the time had passed, and her heart tugged as she wished it could have lasted longer. “I’m sorry. But it’s, you know... for the tradition,” she finally finished. There was no time for false hopes.
