Zen(With MC)
Zen stood at the front door and hesitated. He had a bad feeling about this.
MC tightened their grip on his hand. “You can do this.” They smiled.
Zen sighed and rang the doorbell.
It was his first Christmas with MC, and they convinced him to leave the RFA Christmas party early so that he could spend time with his family. It wasn’t like it was the first time he’d be meeting his family again, he’s visited them several times since he first called them again, and it wasn’t the first time they were meeting MC either, but things were still a bit tense, and Zen felt as though something was going to go wrong.
His brother was the one to open the door, “Hyun, you’re here!” He turned to MC and smiled. “And it’s always good to see you as well, MC.”
He let them in, and ushered them into the kitchen where his brother’s spouse was helping his mother cook dinner.
His mother smiled and went up to greet them as soon as they entered. He still wasn’t used to seeing her act like this, but he knew she was trying her best, and he appreciated that.
The day was amazing. Zen really didn’t need to worry at all. Everyone congratulated him on how well he was doing. His mother was on her best behavior, never mentioning the scandal he was involved in, once. She even talked about how they watched the most recent production he was in, and they bought a few DVDs of the old ones. Zen never thought he’d see the day.
It also helped how supportive MC was being. When they weren’t playing with his brother’s kids, they were always there to make him feel better when he got too anxious. Whenever he felt stuck in the conversation, MC was there to the rescue. His family actually loved them, and Zen couldn’t have been happier.
There was only one thing that he needed to do to wrap the day up, and he was really quite excited. He led MC away from the others, and went to one of the doors he saw when he arrived. He was lucky that his brother was as much of a romantic as he was, because it meant he wouldn’t have to put one up himself.
MC smiled at him, “What’s this about, Zen?”
Zen just grinned and pointed up at the mistletoe.
MC blushed. “Oh, w-well I guess we have no choice.” They giggled.
Zen looked around to make sure no one was around before he bent down and kissed them. It was his idea, beet red when they were done.
MC couldn’t stop smiling. “I’m really glad to see you so happy, Zen.”
“It’s all because of you, MC.” He stole another kiss. “We should do this again next year.”
