49. The Good Doctor. Series, BDSM, Dom-Sub relationship. Very well written on Wattpad.

Chapter 3: THAT

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

~20th December : 4 Days to Christmas 🎄 🎁~

You must admit it, if an award for the the person with the most bad luck existed, you would be the sole winner of it. There was nothing better than being stranded in snow in the middle of nowhere with the sun almost setting taking away half the portion of light you had, note the sarcasm.

You wouldn't even had left your apartment if it wasn't for your grandmother's phone call, she fell down from a wooden stool while decorating the house, thankfully there wasn't much damage done to any of her essential body parts as the sweet neighbours said but it wasn't enough for you to stop yourself from leaving your house early in the morning in such a haste, and forgetting the fact that it had snowed heavily yesterday which meant that the roads were covered in a thick blanket of white frost, and that wasn't even the worst part, what worse was; you hadn't gotten the tyres of your car changed with the winter ones.

In a hurry you left home with nothing but your cellphone and a charger, but now even your phone has become nothing but a simple black box, the area didn't offer any reception which was why you couldn't even call anyone for help. The only thing you would be thankful of would be the fact that you didn't get hurt while your car crashed in the ditch of snow that was covering the side of the road, however for a minute your life had flashed before your eyes, when the tyres of your car slipped on the asphalt of the road making you lose control of the steering wheel. There wasn't much you could do after that, when you went out of your car to examine the damage done, you saw that the tyres were stuck in an awkward position in the snow.

Your hometown, where your grandmother lived wasn't more than five to six hours of driving, but because of the snow it took you two hours more to reach at the place you were in. When you were only two towns away from your hometown, Mistletoe Plains, you met with this accident, which further delayed your travel.

Your hometown was nothing big compared to other towns, though it has its own charm. The town comes alive during the holidays, it has been a tradition for a hundred years to celebrate Christmas with so much joy and enthusiasm in Mistletoe Plains. People prepare for the celebration immediately after Thanksgiving.

The last time you spent your Christmas there was when your parents were alive, after that grandma always visited you in the city, because of which you've always felt guilty. Grandma loves Christmas and because of you she couldn't even celebrate it with the people she care about, her whole life is in Mistletoe Plains, while yours is in the city.

The town used to host a variety of events throughout the holidays and the last one was the tree lighting ceremony. You always attended the tree lighting with your parents, but now they were not here and the whole town is just a huge reminder of them not being alive, which was why you never visited throughout these years and after your breakup you just felt that you were meant to stay alone, stuck with yourself just like how you are stuck in your car right now.

The sun disappeared completely from the sky, taking away the little warmth it provided. You rolled down your window for the nth time to look for a vehicle passing by but just like the other times the road was completely empty. You reached for your cellphone and tried calling the emergency number but again the computerized voice said the same thing, no network available. Twisting the keys you tried to ignite the engine, but except for the loud roar of the engine nothing else happened, the car stayed still in its place. The cold was starting to worsen with chilly wind blowing because of the nightfall and the heater in your car could only keep you warm for so long before it turned off on it's own, great.

With a deep sigh you groaned and rested your forehead on the steering wheel, only the heavens can help you now, you released another long sigh. There was nothing you could do except for crying at your ability to attract bad luck all the fucking time, tears started filling your eyes, threatening to fall any minute and just like that day infront of Seokjin, you started crying again but this time for an entirely different reason. This wasn't the first time you were having a mental breakdown today, after being stuck in the snow for two hours now, this was your third mental breakdown. This one lasted for only a few minutes though. You wiped your tears quickly and got out of your car, however, before you could do anything your leg slipped on the melted ice. Everything happened in slow motion, from your one hand on the door handle opening it further and your whole body gravitating in the opposite direction. You fell on your side, one hand splayed on the ground and the other one that was holding the handle now in the air.

The impact wasn't much except now you couldn't feel your ankle in your boots. The cold was seeping in your clothes and the melted ice was wetting your clothes and boots, great, fucking great. This was just the cherry on top. This was the reason why you hated the holidays, it always brings out the worst in your life. You tried getting up, but your hand slipped and you fell down again in the same position. Frustration, anger, regret everything was coming to you at once feeling overwhelmed all of a sudden, you shouted at the top of your lungs while lying on the cold ground. Maybe you would die here from frostbite or pneumonia or maybe a wild animal will come from within the forest that was on the sides of the road and devour you, your whole body was trembling from the cold, teeth chattering. This was not how you imagined your death, another breakdown was on its way but before you could cry, you heard the screeching of tires and the lights of a vehicle, coming to a halt from the darkness.

A truck stopped at a little distance from you, for a moment you thought it was going to crush you. From how much you can see from your position, you found a pair of legs clad in leather boots, coming out of the car and walking in your direction, you immediately thanked the heavens for finally listening to your prayers and sending you a saviour.

"You okay there." You heard a masculine voice. He stood infront of you.

You lifted your face a little to make out his features and holy shit, you realised this was another one of those dreams or crazy moments whatever you were going through for the past two days, because men who are as hot and handsome as him only appeared to you in those moments.

"Here." He offered his hand for you to take. Without wasting a second you grabbed his hand and he pulled you up but before you could fully stand on your feet, you realised that you may have sprained your ankle and without any warning you were falling again but this time a strong arm wrapped around your waist stopping you from going down again.

"Thanks." You wanted to reply confidently but your voice betrayed you by coming out bashful. Despite the cold, your face was heating up from his close proximity and the warmth his hand on your waist provided.

Now that you were not lying on the ground and can see him properly, you scanned him from head to toe, he was beautiful, his whole face looked so devastatingly perfect from his heart shaped lips to his razor sharp jaw line that could cut through your heart any moment. He was wearing a brown overcoat and an ugly sweater, which didn't looked ugly on him at all, he looked like someone from those Christmas movies, the man who knows everyone in the town.

"Well someone's on Santa's naughty list this year." He joked, while balanced yourself on one leg.

"Yeah I guess he hates me." You answered.

"So what's the crisis, you're dealing with." He questioned, the guy looked extremely cheerful and friendly from the few minutes you stood next to him.

"Well if you could call it that." You gestured towards your car, as he peeked behind you to take a look.

"Well it could've been worse." He said while examining the awkward position of your car.

"So what are you going to do."

"I don't know actually I've been stuck here for the past two hours, trying everything I could but to no avail, and there's no reception in this area either." You replied, even you could hear how defeated your voice sounded.

"That's too bad. Well why don't you hitch a ride with me, I own a pub a few miles from here if you want you can warm yourself up and spend the night there and I could get someone to pick up your car in the morning." He suggested.

His suggestion sounded tempting, however you can't just hitch a ride with a stranger no matter how hot he was. The rational part of your brain stopped you from saying yes immediately. But a part of you felt a little at ease knowing that you weren't all alone stuck in your car at night in the middle of nowhere.

"I promise I'm a good guy." He replied with a smile as though he could sense your hesitation.

His smile was so contagious that you couldn't help but smile back. There wasn't anything else you could do in the situation you were in except for accepting his offer.

"Okay I'll believe you but only because you're offering me a ride." You joked.

"Well can't leave a damsel in distress, in the middle of nowhere." He replied while chuckling.

"Oh heavens, how could you say that." You replied feigning a false hurt expression.

"I apologise m'lady." He said laughing.

"I'm Jung Hoseok, and as I told you earlier I own a pub in the nearest town." He said while helping you walk towards his old truck, the paint was chipped off from the sides showing its silver metal. He opened the door for you and helped you settle down and then took his seat on the driver's side.

"I'm Maria Snow. I live in the city."

"Yeah I could tell from the looks. So if you don't mind me asking, what were you doing here in the middle of nowhere, Miss Snow." He asked while switching on the heater and then igniting the engine. As soon as the heat reached you, your body relaxed immediately.

"Oh, I was visiting my grandmother actually, for the holidays but before I could reach her, well you saw what happened."

"Where does your grandmother lives?"

"Mistletoe Plains." You answered.

"You're from Mistletoe Plains? The famous Christmas Town?" Well that explains your name, then." He said, with surprise.

"Yeah I get that a lot." You answered chuckling at his reaction.

The ride with Hoseok was fun, and like you predicted he was a cheerful and friendly guy. The drive with him went by so fast that you were a little disappointed that it was over already. Both of you joked about stuff and you found yourself opening up to him so quickly, you even surprised yourself when you told him what had been going on with you for the past two days. He laughed and said that maybe you should just go with the flow.

Maybe he took it as a joke, but before you could question it, the truck came to a halt in front of the pub.

"I should warn you beforehand, there is a Christmas quiz game going on inside, so the pub would be pretty much crowded, if that's not a problem with you?"

"Oh, no worries I've been alone for the past I don't know how many hours I think I can handle a little bit of human interaction." You joked, but from inside you were a little uneasy with the thought of a place filled with strangers.

You weren't much of a people person that's why you never had public book signing events and stuff like that for the fans of your writing. However all the uneasiness quickly faded as Hoseok held your hand and helped you inside.

The pub was charming as you would like to say. The architecture and the the fittings were all Victorian styled. There was no trace of modern architecture. The grained woodwork, the ornamental mirrors behind the wooden bar counter, the fireplace, the florid ceiling stained dark yellow by tobacco and smoke and the Christmas decoration was just the cherry on top, garlands, wreaths, sleigh bells, tinsel and a gigantic Christmas tree, everything was giving it such homey and christmassy feel that for a moment you forgot that you hated Christmas. Near the fireplace was a black board that had a couple of writings on it, some of which actually made you laugh. Like the one 'Why is the Grinch such a good gardener? He has a green thumb.' and 'What’s Tarzan’s favorite Christmas song? Jungle bells.'

The pub was roaring with laughter and cheers. There was a man at the front with a microphone in hand, calling out the questions and joking in between. The tables and chairs were arranged in circles for all the teams and a paper was placed on top of all the tables. Most of the people were focused on what the man with the microphone had to say while some were busy in their own world chatting and drinking.

Hoseok took your coat and hung it close to the fireplace so that it could dry and ushered you towards the bar where the both of you took a seat on the wooden high stools.

"Are your clothes still wet? If you want I can arrange you something to change into?" He offered.

"Oh that's really sweet of you but I'm okay actually, my clothes have pretty much dried in the truck. Thanks though."

"No problem. Let me get you a drink though. And before you say no, it's bad manners to decline a drink while sitting near a bar." He said with fake strictness to his tone.

"Really, well thank you for stopping me from making a mistake then." You replied while chuckling. He handed you the menu and to be honest you weren't surprised, the bar offered classic Christmas cocktails only.

"So what would you like." He asked as the bartender made his towards the two of you.

"I can't choose, I haven't tried any of this before, why don't you suggest something." You said while placing the menu back on the counter.

"Well since you are asking the owner himself I'll suggest you one of the specials. How about you try the Grinch's Heart?"

"Seriously there's a drink named Grinch's Heart? Are you sure you're not just making fun of me?" You asked squinting your eyes playfully.

"I wouldn't even dream of it, Maria." He said while placing his hands on his chest, feigning a false hurt expression.

"Fine, I'll trust you on this. It better be good though."

"Oh you don't have to worry about that." He said, chuckling.

The bartender left after that to prepare your orders, you and Hoseok went with the same drink, since he was asking you to trust on his taste so it was only fair as you told him to which he only shook his head and laughed.

The pub was still packed with people who were getting more and more competitive as the time went by. The quiz questions were based on Christmas traditions and went all the way to Christmas dad jokes. The atmosphere was getting more and more livelier. You and Hoseok were on your third rounds and to be honest you actually liked the drink he suggested, you were a little skeptical when it arrived because of the green colour but Hoseok assured you that it would taste amazing and he wasn't wrong at all as soon as you took a sip you absolutely loved it and the drink had a little bit of a citrus flavour because of which it tasted more fantastic. Hoseok told you that the cherry that was placed on top of the drink represents the Grinch's Heart before it grew three sizes that day.

After finishing your third round you could feel the buzz in your head a little, you weren't completely drunk just a bit tipsy, it had been a while since you drank and went out like that. You had so much fun and felt such comfort after meeting Hoseok that you couldn't help but feel a little attached or maybe it was the alcohol. From the past two days whenever you felt like this you always woke up in your bed all alone after the experience maybe it was like that today too.

"Maria about what you said in the truck back there, the crazy thing that's been happening to you for the past two days. I wanted to ask something related to it if it's all right with you." Hoseok asked suddenly turning serious.

The pub was calming down a little as people started leaving slowly.

"Woah, Are you mind reader or something because I was actually thinking about just that." You questioned surprised.

He laughed at your cuteness but urged for your permission."Yeah, go ahead." You replied.

"Well I was wondering if this thing that has been going on with you for the past two days, why don't you just accept it. Maybe it's something good, maybe it's because of the Christmas magic?"

You laughed at his question but stopped immediately when you realised he wasn't joking.

"I thought you were joking." You replied, with an awkward chuckle.

He just shook his head and urged you to answer his question.

"To be honest I don't believe in these things, Hoseok. Christmas magic, give me a break, there is nothing magical being stranded in the middle of nowhere with no network and anyone reliable." You said with bitterness.

"But I came to rescue you, didn't I."

"You did and I'm very thankful for that."

"Then isn't this considered Christmas magic."

"Maybe it is." You replied trying to avoid his gaze and glancing at the ceiling. "Oh it's a mistletoe." You said trying to change the subject, but realised that you got yourself into another awkward position. Your whole face started heating up from how flustered you were feeling.

Hoseok stood from his seat and offered you his hand, confused you looked at him and he smiled giving you butterflies in your heart.

"It's getting late, let me show you to your room."

"Oh, alright." You hate to admit it but you were a little disappointed but nevertheless took his hand.

He lead you to the second floor which had two guest rooms. Hoseok informed you that the guests who came out of town like you often rented these rooms.

The two of you reached to the room where you were going to spend the night. Hoseok stood in the doorway, listing away the things that the room contained that'll help you feel comfortable along with a first aid kit for your sprained ankle, you totally forgot about which, before now and as a punishment for which you felt a sharp pain in your leg and started losing your balance. However just like before, Hoseok immediately grabbed your waist stopping you from falling again.

"Jeez what is with you and falling."

"What can I say even the ground loves me." You joked, but internally you were cringing with how corny that sounded.

Hoseok placed his other hand under your calves and picked you up bridal style, surprising you and leaving a burning sensation where his hand was. It was the alcohol you tried telling yourself. He placed you on the bed and went inside the bathroom, coming back with a first aid kit in hand.

"You know I can do that myself, you don't need to worry about it." You offered but internally you didn't wanted him to leave you alone.

"Oh it won't take much time." He said while gently applying ointment on your ankle and started wrapping the bandage around it. "So just out of curiosity if this is just like one of those of those crazy moments that's been happening to you since two days and if you know that you'll never get a chance to live it again since it'll disappear tomorrow, what will you do?"

His question made you still in your place and only one thought came to while your whole body started heating up from desire, you knew you were gonna regret everything in the morning, but what if, what Hoseok said was true, what if he too disappeared in the morning then you'll only regret not doing anything when you had the chance. So instead of holding back you decided to answer his question.

"Well I would like to avoid the bad luck that I'll get by not following the tradition of kissing under the mistletoe." You even surprised yourself. After answering you grabbed Hoseok by his collar and immediately smashed your lips to his, kissing him urgently and to your shock he kissed you back with the same passion.

You were not a one night stand kind but, after so long you cannot deny the needs of your body.

The both of you kissed each other with such passion that it didn't felt like that this was the first time you two had met, it felt like you two had a connection. Stopping to catch your breaths, you both rested your forehead together when he pulled out a box gift wrapped in green out of his pocket. You were busy undoing his clothes but stopped as your gaze landed on the box.

"This is for you, open it on the Christmas morning." He said and placed the box in your hand. Your mind was too hazy to comprehend what he said after that because of his hands that were now undoing the buttons of your shirt, while his lips placed themselves back on yours.

From what you could decipher he said something like ' I wish you believe in christmas.' However, you didn't get much time to ponder over it as his gaze demanded your attention. You fell on your back as he hovered over you while kissing and biting your lower lip, you opened your mouth as he slipped his tongue inside your mouth. You closed your eyes while kissing him with urgency.

...….................................

You didn't woke up in your bed or your apartment, so that was a good thing.

But to your disappointment there was no Hoseok lying beside you on the bed. You weren't wearing your clothes, only your underwear but from the looks of it nothing like that really happened last night.

Groaning you realised, it happened again, the only difference, instead of waking up in your apartment this time you woke up in a different place so maybe half of the things did happen just not the part that involved a guy named Hoseok.

Chapter 2: Wish

..................................................................................

~19th December : 5 Days To Christmas 🎄🎁

It was not making sense to you, whatever happened was it really a dream or your mind playing a trick on you or did you just hallucinate about the whole scenario of meating a handsome man and making out with him. But how can the latter be possible, sure you had not been in any kind of relationship after the past incident but that does not mean that you are this much desperate to make a whole fantasy about it.

Whatever it was you pushed it at the back of your mind because it was already 19th and you have to visit your grandmother tomorrow which was why you left the warmth of your appartment and decided upon buying her a Christmas gift in this freezing weather. The shops were at a walking distance from your appartment complex so you decided on walking rather than driving which now you realise was a very bad idea.

You had checked the weather news and it showed a snow storm approaching. You didn't had a choice but to take shelter in a nearby store since you were not in the position to go back home. However, to your bad luck there wasn't even a single store in sight. You let your feet take you and it was like they had a mind of their own and to your surprise you found yourself standing at the same place where you went to have coffee yesterday. The surroundings were same as yesterday, only thing that changed was that instead of a coffee shop with a handsome barista, there was an empty plot. The other shops were still at it's place.

The storm was approaching quickly, the snow falling and covering the surroundings. The thing that you found bizzare was, like yesterday the whole Street was completely empty not a single person was in sight, you didn't think anything much about it yesterday since it was morning but now in the middle of the day you found it a little peculiar.

You pushed these thoughts aside since you could feel yourself shivering and freezing from the impact of the storm. Therefore, you didn't waste any more time standing in front of the empty plot and made pace towards the only shop with an open sign which happened to be a gift shop, just your luck .

As you went inside you were greeted by the warmth of the shop. The first thing you noticed inside the shop was that the interior was not much different than the coffee shop, with an edition of a fireplace and a set of stairs leading to the second floor, instead of the coffee tables there were several shelves filled with gift items, however you did notice that the gifts were only based on Christmas, maybe the store was restocked for Christmas you thought and made your way towards the fireplace to get rid of the cold.

There was no one in sight when you went near the fireplace, the counter was empty which was a little weird.

The sudden warmth from the fire managed to releive you a little from the bone chilling cold and your body stopped shivering, but your hands were still ice cold even with the gloves on. You took off your gloves and extended your palms towards the fire in an attempt to warm them, but all of a sudden you heard the creaking of the wooden floor, when you turned around there was no one in sight so you shrugged it off since it could be a rat too and continued with what you were doing.

The shop was decorated for Christmas and just like that coffee shop this gift shop also had dim lighting giving it a cosy look.

"Do you want me to get you something warm to drink?" A masculine voice asked from behind, you dropped your gloves that you had been holding from the sudden shock and immediately turned to see a man coming down the stairs.

"I wasn't trespassing, sir. There's a storm outside which is why I came here and since you weren't there I couldn't ask for permission. I'm really sorry." You explained, now regretting your choice of coming inside without asking, but to your defence it was a desperate measure.

" That's fine. No need to apologise." He said.

When he came in your line of sight you saw how young he looked maybe your age or even younger than you, he had a boyish grin on his face which resembled a bunny. His doe eyes shone as he stood infront of you, you couldn't help but feel mesmerized by his eyes alone, his muscular body was another story. He had a handsome baby face with a muscular built. The man wore a white oversized sweater and had his hair parted in the middle, you were squealing inside from how cute he looked, but stopped yourself from showing any hint of it on your face, you had already embarrassed yourself yesterday even if it was a dream, you don't want to repeat it again. You quickly cleared your throat and looked away from his eyes.

"I'm Jeon Jungkook. And just call me Jungkook no need to call me sir, I'm not that old." He replied with the same smile still plastered on his face.

"Jungkook, nice to meet you. I'm Maria Snow."

"Nice to meet you too Maria." He replied while he extended his arm which you thought was for a handshake but he surprised you by bringing your knuckles to his lips and giving it a peck. You couldn't help but feel flustered. The area where his lips touched felt warm and sent sparks straight to your heart which started beating loudly, your ears started heating up spreading the warmth till your cheeks. He then gently dropped your hand. And gestured for you to follow him.

You felt the same way you felt yesterday. It was like you were bewitched by this man, without thinking twice you followed him to wherever he was taking you.

Jungkook took you to the second floor of his shop which you noticed wasn't a lot different from the first, however instead of the bill counter there was a sofa placed in between and the walls had shelves filled with Christmas gift items.

"Make yourself at home. I'll be right back." He said and disappeared downstairs. Instead of sitting you thought it would be good to have a look at all the gifts that were in showcase. You went near the shelves to find something that would suit your grandmother.

The various wooden shelves were covered in a glass showcases, most of them contained china items like mugs, tea sets all printed with Christmas themes. Some of the shelves had Christmas decorations for gifting and some were filled with Christmas cards. There were various other items but the ones that caught your eye was the shelves that had Christmas decorations, which were filled with various ornaments used to decorate a Christmas tree.

"Do you need help in choosing?" You heard his voice and turned to find him coming upstairs with two mugs in hand.

"I just want to give something to my grandmother but can't decide on any of these." You answered.

"Here some hot chocolate, it was really cold outside. Good thinking that you didn't waited and came inside." He said while handing you a mug filled with hot chocolate, as soon as the sweet aroma of the hot drink hit your nose you couldn't help but take the mug from him, instead of refusing.

"Thank you. That's really thoughtful of you." You answered, courteously.

"It's nothing." He said nonchalantly.

"And about the gift, do you need my help or do you have something in mind?" He asked.

"I'm not sure I was thinking about gifting her something with sentimental value this year, that shows I had put in some effort in finding her a Christmas gift, and because she's the only family I have. But I don't know what should I get." You explained, maybe you shared a little too much, you thought but his presence was making you feel the exact same way you felt yesterday.

You couldn't describe it, you felt really comfortable around him, you finally felt like you don't have to be on edge with him, because of the vibe he was giving.

"If you're looking for something sentimental why don't you go with white turtle doves. I have a really good collection of them and they hold a good sentimental value."

"Turtle doves? What sentiments do they give?"

"You don't know?" He asked in disbelief.

"Should I?" You asked, a little unsure. To be honest you really don't know what sentiments do turtle doves have.

"Haven't you seen Home Alone?"

"No." You said unsure of where this conversation was going.

"You haven't seen the Home Alone movie." He said his voice full of disbelief.

"There is basically no Christmas without watching Home Alone with your family wrapped in a cosy blanket." He said now relaxing a little bit.

"Not everyone has that privilege." You answered, now looking back to why you had always avoided watching these holiday movies.

"This won't do. Come with me." He said while holding your hand in his and taking you towards the sofa.

"Where?" You questioned.

But instead of answering he made you sit on the sofa and he himself hurried downstairs.

"You won't be able to leave since the weather is still bad so instead of wasting time in explaining you the sentiment of turtle doves let me show you." He said while coming back with a laptop and a blanket in hand.

"You really don't have to I can watch the movie myself, seriously."

"Oh no no I insist I was getting bored here myself, through you I can also enjoy this movie again, please." He said while giving you an expectant look with a small pout. How could you resist such a face.

What the hell is happening to you why are you feeling so relaxed in the company of strangers since yesterday.

"Ok fine." You finally complied.

What started as a single movie turned into a movie marathon of three holiday movies, which were Home Alone and it's sequel and a movie named Happiest Season to be honest you liked the last one better.

You yawned and stretched out your limbs as soon as the movie ended. Beside you Jungkook was snoring lightly. You couldn't help but giggle at how cute he looked.

You stood up and noticed both of yours forgotten cups of hot chocolate that were still lying on the small coffee table placed near the sofa and to your surprise the steam was still coming out of the drink and since you were thirsty you drank your hot chocolate. As soon as you finished you found Jungkook waking up from his nap and rubbing his eyes.

"Did I fell asleep?"

"Yes and you were snoring." You replied and chuckled.

"Sorry, didn't mean to fall asleep." He replied rubbing the back of his head, feeling embarrassed.

"No worries. I had fun. Thank you for doing this." You said, gratefully with a genuine smile. You really liked watching some of these holiday movies maybe you should give it a go sometime yourself, you thought.

What you understood by doing this was; even the smallest things could make a person happy, maybe you should look for happiness in these small things instead of chasing after something that is never going to be yours and to be honest what could you lose, you already have an established career, you wondered to yourself.

"My pleasure." He replied with his beautiful smile, snapping you out of your thoughts.

"So did you now understand why people give turtle doves to one another?" He asked with an expectant smile.

"Turtle doves are a symbol of friendship and love. Keep one, and give the other to a very special person. As long as each of you has your turtle dove, you will be friends forever and always love each other. Right?" You answered with a smile.

"You got it, hon. So will you get it for your grandmother? You can give her one and tell her that you are keeping one for yourself so that your love and friendship will be bound to each other for forever." He said.

"I think I should." You answered, contemplating whether your grandmother will like it or not.

"Should I gift wrap it." He asked.

"Yes please."

He went downstairs after taking two white turtle doves in hand from one of the shelves.

"Here you go." He said coming back with two gift boxes in hand. One was a little bigger than the other, the bigger one was surely your grandmother's and the second one which was a little smaller from the first was gift wrapped in purple with a purple ribbon tied on it.

He handed you your grandmother's present carefully and lifted the other infront of you.

"This present is for you. But you have to promise me that you will open this on Christmas morning." He said with a smile and extending his pinky finger towards you. Why do you feel a sense of déjà vu at this, you wondered.

"For me, but why?"

"Because you are special. " He replied while sticking out his pinky towards you even more. You giggled at his cuteness and interlocked your finger with his.

"Fine I promise I'll open it on Christmas morning." You replied with a smile. He handed you the gift and smiled.

"Oh dear, will you look at the time." He said while looking at the wall clock.

"What's wrong?"

"Oh I just realised that so much time had passed. It's already time to bid you farewell." He said, while tucking a stray lock of your hair behind your ear and staring straight into your eyes with those mesmerizing orbs of his.

"Maria Snow I wish that you believe in Christmas." He said with an expectant smile on his face and the sense of déjà vu hit you again but before you can question him the same feeling of being drifting away took over you and you were surrounded in darkness.

............................

You woke up in your bedroom again. And this time you were certain of one thing; this was not a dream, it felt too real to be a dream. Maybe all of this was happening magically but you were sure if you told anyone, they would never believe you and would call you crazy.

So that leaves you with only one option if this happens one more time you really need to see a shrink, you thought.

.........................

"One can find ways to feel happy even in the smallest of things."

Chapter 1: I

..................................................................................

~18th December: 6 days to Christmas 🎄🎁~

Nothing better than a morning where you don't have to think about going to work and just have to relax. Since it's the holiday season you thought of giving yourself a holiday too, doing nothing till the end of the whole week leading to Christmas Eve.

Now that you were on a much needed vacation you thought it would be a good idea to treat yourself this morning. Which is the reason why you stood infront of the door of a coffee shop so early. Actually you were a little surprised that this place was even open, you were an early bird and it was pure luck that this cosy looking café was open at seven in the morning.

The exterior was all wooden like one of those bars in the Harry Potter movies, overall the place looked really inviting so without giving it much thought you went inside.

If you thought the exterior was cosy looking then the interior of the café actually gave you a homey feel, everything was wooden like the old shops or bars in the country with all the Christmas decorations.

Being inside the café you immediately spotted the barista, his back facing you, maybe he was getting ready for the day ahead. There was no one in the café apart from you and the man working behind the counter.

You took off your coat and hung it on the coat rack and then went towards the counter to order.

As you went closer, you noticed that the man was humming to himself while swaying along with the melody. He had a nice voice. As soon as he sensed your presence he turned towards you with a cheerful smile on his face, and boy were you flustered. The man looked like a Greek god, he was so handsome, you couldn't help but stare. His rosy cheeks probably due to the cold weather, his plump lips and those broad shoulders with a lean yet muscular body, he was perfect. He was wearing a white button up shirt with black slacks and an apron tied around his back.

You felt enchanted just by looking at him, as soon as your eyes landed on him you felt like you were in a daze.

You didn't realise you had been staring him with your mouth wide open this whole time until he snapped his fingers infront of you.

"Yes." You asked quickly closing your mouth and avoiding eye contact as much as possible, you were so embarrassed you felt like burying yourself in the ground. Your ears started warming up and your heart it went crazy beating inside your chest.

"You know I always get these types of reactions you don't have to feel embarrassed, I'm quite used to it now." He said, his voice sweet as honey, with a hint of cockiness.

"How can I not I was practically drooling while looking at you." You replied, dying from the embarassment.

"There is nothing wrong in admiring what you like." He said, winking at you.

You knew you were a goner now.

"So what can I get you." He asked politely.

"A caramel machhiato, please." You replied with a big smile on your face, you wondered how much long it will take for your cheeks to start hurting from the way you were smiling. It was your first time behaving and feeling like this in front of a stranger, you yourself couldn't understand why or how this was happening to you.

"A caramel machhiato coming right up." He said with the same enthusiasm as before.

You paid the bill and sat at one of the coffee tables. While he was working on your order you couldn't help but stare at his figure, but when he caught your eye you immediately turned your head and started looking at the decorations, since the whole café was empty you couldn't help but feel awkward, should you start a conversation with him or just leave him alone, following thoughts were invading your mind.

"So, you work here alone?" You asked, unable to take the silence any longer.

"You can say so. I own this place." He replied, still working.

"Must be tough then, managing everything yourself."

"Not really, only a few special people know about this place so there is no work load." He replied turning towards you with a smile. He brought your drink at your table which wasn't too far away from his counter.

"One minute." He said as he kept the cup infront of you and rushed back towards the counter.

He came back with a croissant in hand.

"It's on the house." He said placing the croissant in front of you.

" Thank you so much. You didn't have to."

"I had to. Can't let a pretty girl like yourself leave this place without tasting my special." He replied giving you a wink again with a playful smile.

"Do you mind if I sit with you." He asked already pulling the chair for himself.

"Not at all." You couldn't believe you were flirting with a stranger. Your cheeks started hurting from how long you were smiling. What was happening to you?

"I'm Kim Seokjin." He said while offering his hand.

"Maria Snow." You shook his hand and it was like sparks filled inside your body. You then immediately took a sip of your caramel machhiato to hide your flustered expression. It felt like you were a drunk teenager who felt flustered everytime she did or said anything around her crush.

"Beautiful name, reminds me of Christmas."

"Yeah my parents loved Christmas so they came up with a name that would remind them of it." You replied.

"And you?" He said

"What?" You asked, a little confused.

"Don't you like Christmas?" He asked with genuine curiosity.

"Not really."

"What? You don't like Christmas?" He said raising his voice which was filled with disbelief.

"It's not like everyone has to like it." You replied, shrugging your shoulders.

"Why don't you like it?" He inquired.

"Well it's a little hard to explain." You replied hesitantly.

"Try me." He said

"Well firstly because I think that Christmas is overrated. If people want they can be cheerful and happy throughout the year why need a specific time to feel happiness. Secondly, people talk shit about their families and friends for the whole year and then suddenly on Christmas they want to spend it with their loved ones, again you could've done this at anytime of the year why on Christmas day?" You replied, with pure annoyance.

However the look on Seokjin's face was entirely different, something you couldn't understand.

"Are you sure these are the only reasons why you don't like Christmas?"

"What else would there be?" You replied, avoiding eye contact with him.

"Maria I've met a lot of people in my life and I can tell when someone is in pain and trying to hide it behind a mask." He said with a look of sympathy.

It felt like he struck a chord in you with his words and everything that you had tried to hide came pouring back to you. You have always tried to hide your vulnerable side from everyone but you couldn't understand how can a stranger make you feel all these things with just his words.

Again you wondered why were you being like this.

"It's not. I'm not, trying to hide any pain." You replied with the last bit of strength you had to hide your vulnerability from him.

"Is it not? Is it not true that you don't like Christmas because you're always alone? Seeing everyone with their loved ones you feel jealous, you envy their happiness. Tell me is it not true."

He said. To which you were about to defend yourself but he interrupted you.

"I'm not trying to accuse you of anything, love. I just want you to understand that you should never be ashamed of what you are feeling." He said, his voice sweet and soft as a feather.

You couldn't control your tears at his words it was like a dam broke. You couldn't stop your tears . Has this man casted a spell on you why couldn't you stop yourself, you couldn't help but wonder.

"It's ok darling. Everyone feels like this, everyone has felt loneliness more than once in their lives. It doesn't matter why you are lonely, what matters is how and what you do to get rid of it." He said while taking your hand in his, as a gesture to comfort you. He then took out his handkerchief and offered it to you. You quickly took it from him and wiped your tears. You then took a sip of your drink which was surprisingly still hot to calm yourself.

"You're right. God this is so embarrassing. I don't even know why I'm telling you this." You said, your face heating up because of your outburst, just a moment ago.

"Probably because you don't know me and it feels better to open up to a stranger you don't know than talking to a close one, with whom you feel that you'll be judged." He replied.

"And to your good luck this stranger is not only a good looking barista but also a very good listener." He said playfully, probably to lighten up the mood. You gave him a smile and continued your story.

"My parents loved Christmas. It was so nice, spending the whole holiday season with them, until that accident occurred and they died. It just felt so wrong, celebrating Christmas after that." You stopped to take a sip of your coffee.

" But I did try to get over it and move on. I met a man, fell in love and then on Christmas Eve when I went to his place to surprise him, I found what heartbreak felt like, he cheated on me and that too with my best friend. After that I just gave trying to feel happy, especially in this season." You answered letting your tears fall down your face.

Seokjin shifted his chair towards yours so he can be closer to you. He held your hand in his. You felt his warmth radiating off of him and onto you, it felt really comforting. He met your eyes and gestured for you to continue.

"I just felt like I don't deserve to feel happy and seeing everyone around me happy and enjoying the love of their loved ones I just felt more miserable." You replied, closing your eyes while the tears flowed down your cheeks.

You felt Seokjin's hand on your cheeks wiping away your tears, the warmth of his hand and his touch igniting a strange type of spark in you.

"Everyone deserves to be happy Maria, especially you. After everything you have been through, happiness is not something you have to envy or long for. It will come to you on its own." He said, his thumb grazing the apple of your cheek.

His voice, his close proximity was driving you crazy. You knew what will happen if you opened your eyes right now. You were trying so hard to resist it, but then Seokjin's words came to your mind and every second thoughts, every bit of resistance went out of the windows. You opened your eyes and looked at him, his eyes mirroring the same look as yours, of desire, need and want. At that moment you knew, you were caught up in whatever spell Kim Seokjin has casted on you and there was no going back from it.

"How? How can I be happy? If I don't have a reason to be." You asked, voice as soft as a feather.

"Do you want me to give you that reason." He asked, his eyes turning dark probably the same as yours. Without even hesitating, you nodded your head and it was like he had been holding himself back this whole time.

As soon as you gave him your consent he intertwined his fingers with yours and traced your jaw with his other hand that was earlier on your cheek and settled it on your chin tilting your face so that your lips were at level with his. Your heart skipped a beat and you felt butterflies dancing in your stomach, you closed your eyes shut as he started leaning closer, painfully slow. As soon as he closed the gap, tingles went down your heart. His lips soft and plump took control of yours. You traced his shoulder blades with your free hand, you have been wanting to do that since the moment you had laid your eyes on him. Then you went to his hair, tangling your hands in those soft ebony locks. He left your chin and wondered his hand down your waist and let it settle their. Then he licked your bottom lip and you opened your mouth for him to let his tongue inside, the two of you got lost in the sparks of your own desire.

When you parted from the intense make out, his face made you want to pull him again but the need to catch your breath was much more. His face was flushed red, hair dishevelled, he looked marvelous and to think that you were the reason behind, made you feel proud and happy after such a long time.

"I have a present for you." He said, as he took out a small box, gift wrapped in pink and a red ribbon tied.

"Did you just get that box from out of thin air." You asked, surprised from the box appearing out of nowhere.

"No silly, I had it with me all this time maybe you would've noticed it if you looked around instead of only focusing on my face." He said and chuckled. On any other day you would have argued more and wouldn't stop questioning until you were proven right but today it was as if you have lost your reasoning all of a sudden.

"You have to open this on Christmas morning. Promise me." He said, handing you your present and holding up his pinky finger, you laughed at his cuteness but interlocked yours with his.

"Wow, time went away so fast. I didn't noticed it's already time to bid you farewell."

"What?"

"Maria I wish you start believing in Christmas." He said with an expectant smile on his face, what he was expecting you didn't knew but you felt as if you were drifting away from him. And then suddenly felt everything turn black.

..................

You opened your eyes as the sunlight from your window fell on your face. You immediately sat up and noticed your surroundings. You were in your appartment sitting on your bed.

So that means you were dreaming everything?

How could that be a dream though? You actually felt everything as if it was really happening with you. It wasn't making any sense, you checked the date on the calendar and it was another day. You had slept for a whole day? You couldn't believe it but what other explanation you had.

........................

"Happiness is not something one has to ask for. Everyone deserves to be happy in their lives."

THIS CHRISTMAS

Author: @loveyourself007

Pairing: BTS x O. C. (Original Character)

Genre: Holiday!! AU, rom-com, fluff, magic, magical powers, Small Town!! AU

Ratings: 13+

Status: ongoing

Synopsis : Maria Snow, an aspiring writer with a life long reputation of being called a Grinch was living her life as the way she always wanted, but what she always lacked was the spark of magic that kept her from celebrating the most wonderful time of the year, The Holidays.

Seven Days, Seven Strangers and lots of Christmas Magic, with an advice:

" Do not get attached; Just enjoy the ride."

..................................................................................

"'By the end, the transformed Grinch goes so mushy that he utters a profound apology to the citizens of Whoville for his past wicked ways. "I'm so very sorry for everything," he says as he returns all the toys and decorations he has stolen to ruin their celebration.'

The End." You announced with a fake cheerful smile on your face.

"End of another classical masterpiece. You know the Grinch reminds me of someone I know." Bob said while looking at the other elderly folks present in the room.

"Really? Reminds you of who?" You asked, a little curious yourself.

"You ofcourse." He said and started laughing along with the others.

However, you couldn't find anything funny in that statement, and it was visible on your face.

"Sorry Maria. Couldn't help it. Since the time we've known you, you have been such a spoilsport, that I had to say this." Bob said in between his laughter.

"Guys I know I'm not the ideal person to be around during this holiday season but I always try to sound cheerful through these storytelling sessions. Don't I?" You tried defending yourself. But you weren't fooling anyone and it was clear from the look of pity you saw on their faces.

"Ok fine. Maybe I am like the Grinch. I don't see why I have to believe in the magic of Christmas. There is nothing magical in my life."

"Maybe because you haven't given it a chance." Said Mrs. Andrews.

"No offence Maria but you've been despising this season so much and it spoils the spirit of others around you too. Maybe it's time you actually start seeing the magic and joy of Christmas." Carla said with a look of sympathy.

"Fine. But only because you asked nicely." You said sighing and giving her a genuine smile, which she returns with her own.

"Miss Snow. Your shift is over." The receptionist announced from the door.

"And that's my cue to leave. Wish you all a Merry Christmas. I hope you enjoy your holidays." You said while giving a hug to all the members of the old age home. All of them wished you the same and started chatting among themselves. Lastly you hugged an elderly woman who stood near the door.

"I wish you the same sweetheart and I wish you start believing. Don't get too attached and just enjoy the ride." She mumbled in your ear. You didn't understand what she meant by it, but before you could question her she went towards the others. Now that you think about it you haven't seen her before. Maybe she was new, you shrugged the thought away and went to grab your coat and car keys.

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

Christmas was a joyful season for everyone but you've always thought that cheerfulness as overrated and sometimes fake. It's just another way of people showing off that they can be happy at any point in their life, exchanging gifts with your family and friends, you talk shit about the whole year, is just another way showing off how rich and kind hearted they are. Because of your beliefs you've always been called a Grinch, a spoilsport, a party pooper. You were quite used to it now.

Nothing surprises you in this season, life has always been monotonous and unchanging for you, an aspiring writer and a part time storyteller at an old age home. Not much, but it pays the bills and brings food on your table.

Why you despise Christmas so much is another story, maybe because you don't have anyone to spend it with, maybe, but you'll never admit it infront of anyone, especially not your grandmother whom you love so much, she's your only family left after your parents died in a car crash.

You slept with these thoughts still lingering on your mind, not minding the star twinkling so brightly on your Christmas tree placed in the living room of your apartment.
