βsero stop eating the filling!β you scold, shaking his head with the handle of the spoon you were holding, turning it back around to continue spreading the masa on the corn husk.
he winced at the pain and rubbed his head, the bits of the filling de puerco around his mouth.
βsorry babe! i cant help it though, itβs really good.β he says eying you as you wipe the food off his mouth with a napkin. he hummed at the attention and placed his hands on your hips,
βyou look beautiful, you know?β he says, making you blush, looking down at your food stained apron and christmas outfit. βi donβt think itβs all that.β you mumble, going back to preparing the tamales, adding the filling and rolling it up.
sero suddenly connected to the speaker the two of you had brought, the loud music scaring the shit out of you.
βturn that down! itβs late!β you scold, watching him stumble to lower the volume, βsorry, but itβs too quiet.β he says almost unapologetically. you flicked your santa hat back into its proper spot and continued working.
both of you were kinda right, it was a bit late, about 10 oβclock, and due to the two of you being the only ones up in the dormβs kitchen, it was pretty quiet.
but why were the two of you up so late? well, it was christmas eve! that usually wouldnβt warrant the actions, but you and sero grew up with the tradition of waiting till midnight to open gifts.
also the two of you had missed home and the cultures, so you thought, why not bring home here?
so it was just the two of you, making tamales in the dimly lit kitchen. he handed the ready ones to you while you placed them into the large pot you were going to cook them in.
βdonβt burn yourself.β sero teases, noticing how you need to stick your arm in to place them. nudging him with your foot, you both laughed and carried on.
not long after, the champurrado was ready. searching some for sero and yourself, you two sat on the couch. staring at the brightly lit christmas tree, a fuzzy blanket over your laps, and a warm drink in your hands really set the mood.
without a word, sero turned to look at you, smiling and lowering his head to kiss the tip of your nose, making you giggle and rub your nose against his.
after about a half hour, the two of you lightly jumped in surprise when you heard the elevator doors open, turning to see who walked out, you both laughed.
βwhatβs so funny?β a sleepy kaminari asked, rubbing his tired eyes and squinting at the two of you.
βnothing.β was all you two could respond before he bound over to the two of you, holding over the back of the couch and sitting in between you.
βwhatchu guys doin 'up?β he piped up, snatching the drink out of your hands and taking a few questioning sips. βthis is pretty good!β he exclaims.
βyou want some?β sero asks, laughing at his friend who nodded excitedly and made himself comfortable under the blanket and against your side.
kaminari had whipped out his phone quietly, your peripherals picking up him typing a few words before shoving it back in his sweatpants pocket.
he only smiled at you with faux innocence when you glanced down questioningly at him.
right as sero came back with another mug, the elevator doors opened up again, this time revealing kirishima and bakugou. kiri looked way happier than bakugou did, he looked like he was ready to bow up all of you.
βwhat are you two doing up?β you ask him, laughing knowingly when kirishima holds up his phone, revealing a message from kaminari.
βnow, we could ask you two the same question.β kirishima asks, throwing bakugou onto the other couch. you heard a quiet, βiβll get more drinksβ from behind you, making you laugh.
βwell, itβs christmas eve, and sero and i are used to waiting up till midnight to open gifts.β you explain, watching kirishima and kaminariβs eyes light up.
βwoah! you mean you donβt wait till the morning?β the blonde asks, bouncing in his seat, however careful as to not spill the hot drink.
βpretty much, we also made some food.β sero says, this time bakugou perking up, βwhat kind of food?β he asks gruffly.
as you went to go check on the tamales, the elevator doors opened up again, this time revealing the entire deku squad.
βwhat?..β you trailed off, βkiri.β they all said holding up their phones. you giggled, βyou want some?β you ask them as they run over to see what you were serving for drinks.
βoo that smells good!β midoriya, uraraka and asui all exclaimed, todoroki and iida curiously looking into the pot of tamales.
βwhat are these?β shoto asks, βtheyβre called tamales. theyβre corn dough and filled with corn and beef.β you explain in a simple way.
not even 5 minutes later, the whole common room was full of your classmates, all dressed in their pjβs and their custom christmas hats. everyone was either sitting on the couches, on the floor around the three with a christmas movie playing, or helping you in the kitchen.
once sato arrived with his baking stuff, you got to work on making various pan dulces to go along with the hot chocolate and champurrado.
everyone was chatting and even singing a few different versions of christmas songs that made you all laugh. at about 11:40 a voice rang out that made you all freeze.
βwhat are you all doing at this hour?β aizawaβs voice boomed, effectively scaring all of you. before you could stand up to take the blame, sero placed a hand on your shoulder and stood.
βuh, mr. aizawa, this was all me, i got homesick and, sir itβs christmas eve,β he says, getting nervous under his teacherβs glare, βiβm aware.β aizawa cut him off, making him stutter.
you looked up at him reassuringly and took his hand, βand for us itβs traditionally celebrated on christmas eve, and the opening presents starts at midnight.β sero finished explaining, his charming grin slightly wobbling.
the tired man groaned and pinched the bridge of his nose. with a defeated sigh, he waved his hand and looked up at all of your waiting faces, βfine, continue. but you all are cleaning up.β he says as you all cheer, thatβs when he smells the food in the kitchen.
you smile at him as you approach, offering him his awaiting cat mug and a pan dulce, βmerry christmas mr. aizawa!β you say cheerfully, smiling even wider when he takes the offerings.
all might also burst in at some point, the two teachers now with their own santa hats and christmas snacks.
you and sero were so preoccupied with one another that you didnβt notice uraraka floating above the two of you, her giggles and the whispers in the room alerting you.
looking, you and sero saw she was holding a bundle of mistletoe above the two of you.
βfeliz navidad, hanta.β you say lovingly, sighing in content when seroβs hands come to cup your cheeks.
βfeliz navidad, mi amor.β sero says with equal amounts of love as he leans down to press a kiss on your lips, both of you smiling when you hear the cheers and whistles of your classmates.
βhey, itβs midnight!β a voice says, the two of you pulling apart and staring at one another while the sounds of joyful voices, wrapping paper tearing and laughter.
βhappy holidays everyone!!β
