Tales of Christmas Day 16 - cc!Karl Jacobs x gn!reader

Genre - strangers to lovers, Christmas, pen pals kinda

Word count - 718

We made it! It’s the last day of the 2022 edition of Tales of Christmas. I’m sorry if this one isn’t detailed enough, I kinda ran out of time 😅Thank you for coming on this journey with me and hopefully you enjoyed the festive imagines! I’ll probably take a little break over the festive period but I’ll still be working on stuff, I just probably won’t release anything for a lil bit. 

- 🌙

At the start of the year, you made a New Year’s resolution to be in a relationship for Christmas. It was mid November and you had pretty much come to terms with the fact that it most likely wasn’t going to happen if it hadn’t already. However, your best friend was ready for a last ditch effort. 

“You could always pull a Dash and Lily” you sit up from your position on the couch to make sure she knew how stupid you found that suggestion. 

“Yes, b/f/n because writing a note in a book and it coincidentally being seen by someone my age actually works in real life” she rolls her eyes at your sarcasm before replying. 

“Then why not try it and prove me wrong? You’ve got nothing to lose if you think no one will see it” you knew she was saying that to get you to do it, but you couldn’t pass up the opportunity to be right. 

“Fine, if it’ll get you to shut up” her excitement makes you smile slightly. Although you knew it wouldn’t work, you still had a slither of hope. 

The two of you get to work soon after and it doesn’t actually take as long as you thought it might. She ends up suggesting you use a manga book since it was your favourite genre, and had the largest likelihood of attracting someone suitable (in her words at least). You decide to task the reader with leaving a bookmark with their favourite manga or anime written on it, to make sure they had good taste. Immediately after you’re done, she makes you drop it off at the library and inform the librarian of your plan. 

After a week of refusing to check it even though you were curious, you finally give in. Pulling out the book, you see something sticking out the top and see that someone actually responded. Not only did they give you answers to their favourite manga, they also wrote down their favourite anime as well as a task for you. You were tasked with going to your area’s MrBeast Burger and leaving what your favourite video game was, you wondered why they chose that location but you did as they asked. 

This back and forth continued for the rest of the month as well as into December and you had caught feelings, much to your chagrin and your best friend’s excitement. You knew an ‘I told you so’ was due any day now and you were not happy about it. 

Adding to your piling up emotions, Karl (as you had found out your pen pal’s name was) and you had agreed to meet at a specific café at 2pm today. Although part of you was excited to finally meet him after about a month, the majority of you was terrified. What if you didn’t like him? What if he wasn’t what you thought? Or worse, what if you did like him as much you thought?

By the time you calmed yourself down enough to prepare, you had to leave. Reaching the café at 1:52pm sharp, you walk in and survey the people sitting by themselves. As you’re doing so, you realise that you hadn’t even thought of the possibility that he mightn’t show up. What would you do then? You’re brought out of your thoughts by a guy about your age with fluffy hair coming up to you. 

“Are you y/n?” there was no way this was Karl. He was way too cute to even be near you, let alone asking to meet you. 

“I am. You Karl?” he gives you the prettiest smile you’ve ever and will ever see and leads you to a table. 

It was clear about 20 minutes into your meeting that he was exactly who you thought, but somehow better. The two of you got along great and you realised you had nothing to worry about, except the ‘I told you so’ from your best friend that you hadn’t received yet. 

“Do you want to go on an actual date nest time?” Karl asks you this as your meeting reaches it’s natural end. You quickly agree and you swap numbers so you’re able to schedule and continue talking. 

You weren’t sure how, but you actually achieved your New Year’s resolution.

Because it’s close to the holidays, you were staying with your parents. You’d been there almost a week now and it was nice to spend time with them after moving out. However, it wasn’t the holidays with the family if there was nothing that went awry. 

After finishing a Christmas themed stream with Tina, you went to grab a drink from the kitchen and ran into your mother. She doesn’t notice you until you open the fridge and grab a can of coke. 

“Guess what, honey?” you turn to face her with a look on your face urging her to continue. While waiting for her to say whatever she was so excited for, you take a swig of your drink. 

“One of my friends is bringing their kid to the party so you’ll have a date” you almost spit out the mouthful of drink you had in your surprise. 

This honestly wasn’t at all what you were expecting her to say, so you didn’t have much time to think of something to get out of it. 

“Mum, I have a boyfriend, I can’t have another date” that definitely wasn’t the right thing to say, nor was it the truth so you had to hope she wouldn’t pry. Of course you wouldn’t be so lucky. 

“Why didn’t you tell me? What’s his name? What does he do? How long have you-” you cut her off before she starts a full on investigation into your made up boyfriend. You didn’t want to have to think of lies you’d have to try and remember. 

“We haven’t been dating long so I didn’t want to rush things” perfect, now she wouldn’t tell you to invite him because it was early on in your ‘relationship’. 

“Honey, you have to invite him! I’m sure we’d love to meet him and we’ll be on our best behaviour” you were screwed. 

You couldn’t say no because she’d just push until you were exposed so you had to try and convince one of your friends to do you a huge favour. Quickly finishing the conversation with your mother with a promise to ‘see what you could do’, you head back to the room you were staying in. After spending a few minutes thinking of who you could possibly ask, you find the solution. You dial his number and wait just a few seconds before he picks up. 

“Hey, y/n!” his voice fills your ears and you find solace for a brief moment. 

“Sam! I need a massive favour” your panicked voice seems to worry him based on his response. 

“Anything you need. What’s up?” he’d soon regret the first part of that sentence you think. Taking a few seconds, you think of the best way to ask. 

“Well, my mum said that she was trying to set me up with one of her friend’s kids so I told her I already have a boyfriend. Obviously I don’t and she told me to invite him so can you pretend to be my boyfriend for a night?” you quickly realised there wasn't a good way to say it so you just ended up blurting it out. He mulls it over for a little before speaking again. 

“Okay. When is it?” you release the breath you didn’t even know you were holding and thank him profusely. The two of you spend the next hour planning out the basics and telling him the details of the party. 

*that weekend*

The party was tonight and you were extremely nervous. Nervous because your lie could exposed, nervous because there was so many things to remember about your ‘relationship’ and nervous because you had to pretend to date your best friend who also happens to be your crush. 

Fast forward several hours and you were doing final touches to your outfit. Taking one last look in the mirror, you take a deep breath and text Sam to make sure he’s almost here because he was meant to help your family set up before everyone else arrived. He confirmed he had just pulled up so you went to meet him outside. 

As soon as you brought him inside, you were swarmed by your parents who were excited to meet your ‘boyfriend’. 

“Oh, y/n didn’t tell us you were so handsome!” your mother was clearly impressed by his appearance (and I mean she wasn’t wrong but it was still awkward). 

“Nice to meet both of you” Sam was as polite as possible as he greeted your parent’s and shook their hands. 

Just as you expected, Sam was bombarded with questions as the 4 of you set up for the holiday party. He answered all of them with ease and it was clear to you that your parents loved him. Thankfully the first few guests were starting to arrive so you were saved for now. 

Most of the party went by with little to no trouble. Once people started feeling the effects of the alcohol and holiday spirit, things went downhill. People had taken it upon themselves to bring mistletoe and hold it above unsuspecting couples who would then kiss just like the age-old tradition. This was fine (albeit it cringe) until you and Sam became the victims of it. 

“It’s the newest couple’s turn!” you and Sam exchange subtle looks of panic before trying to politely decline citing it was embarrassing in front of so many people. 

“No one will mind, you guys make such a great couple!” 

This was literally the worst thing to ever happen to you and you wanted to crawl in a hole. Sam exchanges another look in which you seemed to reach a consensus. It might be better to do it and deal with it later, after all you both knew it didn’t mean anything. Right? So you do it. You hated how much you wanted to do it again but it got them to leave you alone. 

The night ends soon after that and you thank Sam while walking him out to his car once you had helped return the house to it’s preparty state. Once he had left, the overthinking started. You quickly came to the decision that your feelings were wrong and you shouldn’t talk to Sam ever again because he hates you now. Of course this wasn’t true but your brain convinced you so regardless. 

A day goes by and then 4 and you hadn’t responded to any of Sam’s messages and he had given up by day 3. or so you thought. You get a text at about 10pm telling you to meet him outside and as much as you wanted to continue playing your game of one sided hide and seek, you knew if you didn’t then he’d knock on the door and alert your parents. 

As you close the door, your eyes find Sam quite quickly with a bouquet of flowers and a cute polar bear wearing a Santa hat soft toy. He waits for you to get a bit closer, not wanting to raise his voice any louder than he needed to.

“Thank you for coming out” you don’t say anything, wanting to play the unaffected angle. 

“Are you okay? You haven’t been answering any texts or calls” trust him to worry about you first rather than the lack of response. 

“I’m fine” this was when he truly knew something was up because who ever means it when they say they’re fine?

“I wanted to talk to you about the night of the party” the way your stance adjusted told him that was the reason you’d been acting this way by the way he made a face of understanding. 

“I liked kissing you, a lot. I’ve had feelings for you for ages now and so I jumped at the chance to be your boyfriend even if it was only fake” one half of your brain was cursing itself out and the other was spamming question marks at the surprising confession. 

“I- this wasn’t how I pictured this conversation going. I’ve also had feelings for you for ages, too” he smiles at your words while you try and wrap your head around what was going on. 

“Can I kiss you for real this time?” you nod enthusiastically and the kiss was somehow even better the second time. 

That night, you both made a pact to never tell your parents that you weren’t always a couple because you knew you’d never live it down.

Tales of Christmas Day 14 - cc!Dream x gn!reader

Warnings - mention of crafting table joke

Christmas was coming up quick and with it came festive activities, including Christmas MCC. MCC was one of your favourite times of the month, so you were beyond excited for your favourite holiday’s edition.

Today you were teaming with Dream, George and Sapnap, so you could say you had the dream team for the event. The only problem being Dream. Not because you didn’t like him, but because you liked him a little too much. Knowing he was on your team was a little worrying, you weren’t sure how well you’d play knowing he was watching.

You’d started streaming a mere few minutes ago, doing a quick intro before talking with chat. Not wanting to spoil your MCC costumes, you were currently only showing your starting soon screen. After a couple more minutes of chit chat, you get a message from Sapnap telling you to join the vc so you can reveal your costumes.

“This is it chat, you ready? Our costumes are sick!” you click the join button after ending your sentence, instantly being met with greetings from your teammates and friends.

“Alright, on the count of three we reveal. 1, 2, 3!” All of you start sharing your screen to show the 4 of you standing in a line.

The 4 of you decided to go as components of a costume rather than match. Each of you were dressed as part of a Christmas tree; Dream as the actual tree, George as the star, Sapnap as the baubles/ornaments and you as the lights. You see your chat spamming how much they love your costumes and how excited they were for this year’s Christmas MCC. A few minutes of chatting with your team goes by before an abrupt exit.

“George call me real quick” George agrees and the two leave the vc to do God knows what. You’re silently cursing them as soon as you hear the disconnect noise.

“What the hell are they doing?” You laugh at Dream’s tone before also voicing your confusion.

“I literally have no idea” you glance at chat to find them talking about a so called ‘SNF ritual’ they do before every MCC.

“Apparently there’s a ritual they do before any MCC so I assume they’ll be back soon” you let Dream know of the info you received while he hums to let you know he heard.

Wanting to pass time until your friends returned, you ran around looking at and rating everyone’s costumes. There were some reindeers, cute matching scarves and hats and Christmas sweaters. Once you’d rated everyone costumes, you realised Sapnap and George weren’t back yet.

Curiosity getting the better of you, you pull up George’s stream to see what exactly they’re doing while you wait. The stream opens to Sapnap standing in front of George while he stands a block higher. Sighing you close the stream again, not sure why you expected anything different from your two friends.

“What’s wrong?” Dream had clearly heard your sigh by how worried he sounded.

“I decided to check George’s stream to see what they were doing and saw Sapnap simulating a crafting table scenario” Dream wheezes and you couldn’t help but laugh along with him. A minute of silence passes.

“If we have to play build mart then I’m gonna cry” you had to agree with Dream’s admission because build mart sucked.

“Honestly me too” you both laugh before getting interrupted by your teammates rejoining.

“What are you two laughing about?” There’s a certain edge to Sapnap’s voice but you couldn’t place what kind.

Unfortunately for the returnees, the countdown to the start of MCC rings out. The four of you cheer in unison and make your way to the decision dome. All the players pour into the decision dome and enter their respective areas. Your team decided to try and get build mart over with, so that your better performing games could be played when more coins were up for grabs. Luckily other teams seemed to have had the same idea as build mart got the most votes.

The game ends and your team- the red rabbits- comes in 5th, which is better than you were expecting. The next couple of games went by smoothly with your team getting second in both. Throughout the games, you and Dream had exchanged more than just friendly banter. This resulted in not only teasing from your other teammates which just got worse each time, but also your face to put the red in red rabbits. It was now time for the next game which ended up being battle box.

“Ooh we got this, we got this” Sapnap was certain your team’s pvp skills would win it.

The first match was against the yellow yaks. Each of you chose your tool and got ready to fight. Shortly after the round starts, you’re cornered by two members of the opposing team.

“THERE’S LITERALLY TWO, DREAM HELP” you call for Dream automatically and your request is granted soon after as Dream runs up and helps you kill them both.

During your scuffle, both Sapnap and George had been killed so it was up to you and Dream to finish them off. Although they’d managed to take down one of the yellow yaks with them. Your team emerges victorious and this pattern continues for about 70% of your rounds.

Your team was sitting in 2nd place quite comfortably and there was only one game left, the final. Being in 2nd meant the red rabbits were facing off in dodgebolt.

“Okay, we funnel. Funnel to Dream everyone” nodding to yourself you hear the others agree. Getting ready, you adjust your sitting position and take a sip of water.

“This is it, chat!” Your chat is almost as excited as you are, nerves at an all time high.

When the game starts, your team lets the other team grab the arrows. One of the arrows hits you and you shift your focus to cheering on the remainder of your team. They manage to win the round and you all break out in a cheer. Unfortunately the next round results in a loss, meaning it all came down to the final round.

“We can win it, guys! Funnel!” Agreeing with your statement, you all take your positions.

The opposition’s arrows all miss the first time round and George manages to hit one of them. Eventually it was just you and one member from the other team left, an old fashioned standoff with one arrow each.

“You got this, y/n!” Dream’s words calm your nerves a little.

“Do I shoot or wait for them?” The Dream team tells you to wait so you do. They shoot soon after and you dodge it easily.

“AHH OKAY THIS IS IT” laughter sounds from your headphones at your panic.

Taking a deep breath you aim the bow. You follow the opposing team member for a second with the bow before taking the chance. Before you can register if your shot hit, giant words are displayed on the screen showcasing your victory. The team call erupts in excited screaming, while you’re just shocked. Glancing at your chat you see them spamming tonnes of different emotes.

“Y/N I COULD KISS YOU RIGHT NOW” you didn’t think you could get more shocked but you were proven wrong.

“Please do” it unfortunately doesn’t register that you’ve said it out loud until your teammates react.

“Y/n?” George’s voice is what alerts you to your mistake. Your hand quickly slaps over your mouth, followed by your head falling into your hands.

“Look, just pretend that never happened” your voice comes out muffled through your hands.

“Well, I mean I’d like to” your head shoots up at the sound of Dream’s voice and you quickly wrap up your stream upon seeing Dream had already done so.

Your phone rings soon after and you and Dream excuse yourself from the team vc, with knowing laughs from the other two. Dream takes the opportunity to ask you out properly.

This MCC will always be your favourite.

Welcome back for day 13! I hope everyone is having a great December ❤️

- 🌙

It was 3 hours until your shift was over and it couldn’t end any sooner. The retail store you work at had been super busy for the past week in the lead up to Christmas, with people leaving their festive shopping until the last minute. 

There was only one thing getting you through your shift today, and that was the cute guy that came into the store almost an hour ago with his friends. The group of 3 seemed like they were in their own world, showing each other items the other would then cuss them out for. The one you had your eyes on was an average height brunette with a little beard who you had seen enter the store and you were down bad. 

Throughout their time in the store, you had seen the other boys either look or not so subtly point in your direction. They had also come up to you asking for recommendations despite walking past your coworkers on the way to you. 

“Excuse me, do you know where I can find the nerf guns?” you're brought out of your train of thought by a fluffy haired, tall guy who is also a part of their group. 

“They’ll be in aisle 15, let me know if you need more help” you return the smile and point towards the direction of aisle 15. He thanks you before approaching his friends and leading them to where you pointed. 

*With Sapnap*

On the other hand, Sapnap had been teased relentlessly by the other 2/3 of the Dream Team. He looked at you just a little too long soon after they arrived, it was picked up by Dream and he hadn’t been left alone since. 

“Just ask her out, Sapnap” George had repeated this sentence in different ways at least 20 times by now and the answer was always the same. No. 

“What’s the worst that could happen? They say no and then you’ll probably never see them again” Dream had a valid point but Sapnap deemed it too much of a risk regardless, not wanting to be rejected. 

Because Sapnap wasn’t willing to ask you out or even talk to you, the other 2 took it upon themselves to at the very least get you to notice him. However, they were unaware that you were just as interested in him. 

After what Sapnap regarded as one too many times they went up to you, he gave in. 

“Okay, fine. I’ll fucking ask them out just stop” Dream and George share a look before almost pushing Sapnap in your general direction. 

He hesitates for a few seconds before deciding it was better to get it over with. Approaching you, he clears his throat causing you to turn around. Once you’re face to face, you give him a smile even though you’re freaking out on the inside. 

“How can I help?” he was even better looking up close, something you didn’t think could be possible. 

“I’m sorry for my friends asking you like a million questions earlier, they’re assholes” you laugh at his word before replying. 

“It’s okay, that’s what I’m here for! Anything else?” it was normal for you to ask a customer they needed anything else but you were hoping this guy would ask for your number or something. Your wish is answered soon after. 

“He thinks you’re cute” Dream walks by. clearly unimpressed with how the conversation was going. His statement causes the both of you to blush. 

“I told you they’re assholes. Could I get your number?” your laugh returns and you nod before giving him your number. He tells you to text him when you’re done with work so you can make a plan and they leave soon after.

Today’s shift was most definitely worth it.

Tales of Christmas Day 12 - cc!Punz x gn!reader

Warnings - reader has long(ish) hair, language, mentions of drinking and throwing up (and kissing someone after)

Word count - 815

Most of your friend group were in Florida for an irl stream you’d planned months before. George was finally in Florida so it was your first Christmas all together. The idea was to have a Christmas party with some drinks, food and party games (all Christmas themed of course).

You, Punz, Dream, Sapnap and now George all lived in Florida so you guys were the main planners. The rest of the boys had tasked you and Punz (probably because they knew of your feelings for each other) with going and picking up all the food and drinks while they decorated the room you’d be streaming in.

Punz was the driver for the day while you’re in charge of the checklist. Arriving at the grocery store, the two of you exit the car and you grab a trolley as you walk past the trolley bay. You consult the list and make a mental plan of the order you should grab the snacks and drinks in.

“Okay, Punz. We’re gonna make sure we get everything because we are not coming back” he laughs before saluting you and taking control of the trolley.

The two of you go aisle by aisle, making sure to get everything you need. Shopping with Punz like this seems so domestic and it makes you crave more times like this. You guys manage to finish the shopping with no hiccups so you make your way back to the house.

Walking in, you set the shopping on the counter and venture into the lounge to see what the boys have done in your absence. You were pleasantly surprised with the amount of progress they’ve made. There were lights, a Christmas tree, stocking and various festive inflatables scattered throughout the room. You and Punz help them finish and everything is decorated in no time.

*the next day*

It was almost time for the Christmas party stream and you were beyond excited. You were one of the first to arrive so you help set up the food and put out the drinks (some alcoholic some not) meaning you got to see everyone’s reaction as they walk. Because it was a Christmas party, all of you were dressed in different levels of festive spirit, ready for the chat to judge them later and pick a winner. Once all of you are ready, the stream is started and you and your friends start to pick away at the food on offer. 

You pour yourself a drink, not paying much attention to what you were drinking. Because you’re part of a stream, you found yourself talking more than usual so you always made sure you had a drink to soothe your voice. Over time, you became more talkative and affectionate with your friends. something that you eventually get called out for. 

“What’s up with you, y/n? Did you drink too much?” Hannah has a concerned tone as she guides you to a chair. Quackity and Karl come over to the two of you, a similar look on their faces. 

“I haven’t had any alcohol, I was drinking this” you confidently make your way to the table and point at the bottle you’d been pouring your drinks from. 

Karl picks up the bottle and starts laughing, informing you it was wine and was indeed alcohol. Punz comes over after seeing the laughter erupt from the group. Quackity gets him up to speed and he joins in the laughter before promising to get you some water. He comes back shortly after, with ice water in hand. Your other friends make sure you’re okay before leaving you with Punz. 

“I don’t feel well” after learning of your predicament, you soon start to feel like you were going to throw up. He widens his eyes slightly before helping you stand guiding you to the bathroom. 

He holds your hair, a comforting hand on your back which would have given you butterflies if you weren't busy throwing your guts up. When you’re done, you make sure to wash your face and use a bit of mouthwash (that you almost spill everywhere). You turn to thank Punz, not expecting him to already be looking at you and you make direct eye contact with him. A few seconds go by and you’re not sure if he’s leaning in, if the alcohol is making you sway or both. Your question is soon answered when you feel his lips on yours, there was no way the alcohol could do that. 

“I just threw up” he laughs at your utterance before gesturing towards the way you came. 

The rest of the party went by without a hitch, and thankfully without any more alcohol. You and Punz shared lingering looks with each other that didn’t go unnoticed by your friends. You knew that you had to talk to Punz after the stream and that you had to kiss him again.

You were currently sitting on your couch scrolling through TikTok. Quackity was on his way to pick you up and you’d finished getting ready a little earlier than expected so you had some time to kill. He has been your boyfriend for almost 2 years now and you’d vowed to make your date tonight a tradition.

The year before last you asked Quackity if he wanted to take a drive and look at Christmas lights displays. Later that night, you ended up confessing your feelings to each other so it was a special time for both of you.

A knock on your door puts your reminiscing on pause. You quickly make your way to the door, flinging it open to see your boyfriend holding a bouquet of flowers. He hands you the bouquet while you gesture him inside so you’re able to put the flowers in some water. Once that’s done, you follow him out to his car, soon finding yourselves at your favourite food place. 

The two of you have been here countless times so it wasn’t a surprise he pulled into the drive through and ordered your regulars. Receiving the items, he hands them to you before driving to a lookout area which was the same place you’d confessed your feelings almost 2 years ago. Quackity parks the car before helping you carry the food and drinks to the bench overlooking the scenery, placing it down as you both take a seat. 

Eating your food with your boyfriend while being able to look at a breathtaking view just before Christmas was euphoric. Ever since you and Quackity started this tradition, it was always your favourite part of the year and you couldn’t wait to see all the Christmas lights displays. 

While finishing your food, you and Quackity talked about which displays in what order you’d be visiting. He had put you in charge of directing him since he was driving but you knew you’d get lost pretty quick. You study the map as you walk to the car and tell Quackity the first location. 

Your directions manage to get the both of you to the correct display so you mentally fist pump before jumping out of the car and joining hands with your boyfriend. 

This routine continued throughout the night and somehow your directions didn’t get you lost once. Corny festive remarks were thrown back and forth but you wouldn’t change it for the world. You couldn’t wait for next year.

Tina is currently keeping you company in a Discord call that has been active for a couple of hours now. The two of you had been chatting about anything and everything, including your crush.

“I really think you should tell Foolish, y/n” Tina’s suggestion is easier said than done.

“I can’t, Tina. It would fuck everything up for the whole friend group” your sigh is loud and frustrated.

“It’ll be fine, it won’t fuck anything up” Tina’s words were comforting although you didn’t believe them.

The call falls into silence for a few minutes until Tina’s gasp rings out causing you to jump slightly.

“Are you okay?” Tina laughs at your worried tone before explaining.

“You should test him” this wasn’t what you were expecting.

“Test him how? This isn’t an exam”

“We’re doing that Christmas sweater stream tomorrow, right?” Her question results in a quiet hum from you, urging her to continue.

“I’ll make sure you’re making one for Foolish and you make it bad on purpose” even after her explanation you still failed to see how this would prove anything.

“Okay but what is that supposed to do?” She scoffs slightly but explains again.

“If you make it absolutely awful and he still wears it happily then he definitely likes you” you were hesitant but agreed to appease Tina.

Arriving at Karl’s house the next day, you’re greeted enthusiastically by Tina. She opens the door and pulls you inside before she pulls you into a hug. She leads you to the rest of your friends where you all share greetings.

Getting started, a quick intro is done and Tina is successful at making Foolish the receiver for your sweater. Those participating sit around in a semicircle ready to design. You had no idea how to make it so bad he wouldn’t wanna wear it, but not bad enough that it was obvious what you’re intent was.

It takes a few minutes for you to think of a design but once you do, the rest flows pretty quickly. You finish around the same time as the others and take a look at your creation. Looking it over you��re convinced you achieved your goal but you show Tina regardless.

“Hey Tina, what do you think?” Only the two of you knew the ulterior meaning behind your question.

“It’s great” she laughs and nods her head, clearly impressed with your attempt.

You make sure to hide Foolish’s sweater while everyone else is giving their’s to their respective person. Eventually it comes to your turn and you can hear Tina giggling next to you, knowing what was coming.

“I just wanna preface this by saying that I’m not a very good artist” you tried but you couldn’t get through your sentence without laughing.

You hand the sweater to Foolish who was sitting two seats to your left. He grabs it from your hands tentatively, scared of what you had made considering the reactions from you and Tina. He flips it towards him while his eyes widen slightly.

“I love it, thank you” he was lying through his teeth, it couldn’t be more obvious.

The stream is quick to end after that and you hang out for a little more before deciding to join Tina at her house. Saying goodbye to your friends, you follow her out to your car since she’d ridden with another friend from the group.

“Well, do you believe me yet?” She’s looking at you while you mull over you’re answer.

“He didn’t say he hated it, but he’d never say that anyway. It literally didn’t prove anything” she sighs gently at your response.

The rest of the night was uneventful, but it was the next day that took you by surprise.

There were plans for the same group as yesterday to do another stream so you once again found yourself at Karl’s house. You facing away from the door chatting to Sylvee and Tina when Tina cut her sentence midway through. Shooting her a questioning look, she only points behind her in response. Turning quickly you see Foolish wearing the sweater you designed for him the day before.

You whip your head around again to face Tina in disbelief. She looks just as confused as you do this clearly wasn’t what she meant by ‘wears it happily’.

“You have to tell him now. What other reason would he wear the sweater for?” She spoke in a hushed whisper but you were still worried he’d hear.

Sylvee was looking between you and Tina with a confused look so Tina fills her in quickly.

“Oh my god, y/n. You have to tell him!” you roll your eyes out of instinct, but you were considering it since two of your best friends were pushing for it. They wouldn’t lie to you.

Sighing you reluctantly agree and make your way towards where he was sitting with Karl and Punz. You nod your head towards the door, gesturing for Foolish to follow you out the room and away from prying eyes.

“What’s up?” Unsurprisingly he’s confused at what you could possibly want to talk to him about. 

“Nice sweater” he laughs and thanks you while you gather the courage to confess. You clear your throat before speaking again. 

“I have something to tell you and I understand if you want me to leave after I ju-” he interrupts you, the confused look now replaced with a concerned one. 

“Woah, it’s okay. Why would I want you to leave?” you sigh deeply to try and calm your nerves. 

“I like you, Foolish” you’re not sure what to make of his initial reaction. His eyes widen slightly and his mouth parts, jaw dropping in surprise. Before you can stop, you find yourself spilling the plan concocted by Tina.

“Oh. That is- that’s interesting. Well, I really like you, y/n” your eyes that were avoiding his, are now quick to snap towards his. 

It was safe to say that Tina was right, telling him didn’t fuck anything up.

Tales of Christmas Day 9 - cc!George x gn!reader

Genre - friends to lovers, Christmas!

Warnings - language

Word count - 827

Day 9 is here! For the sake of the story George has a backyard and this is before he moved to Florida. Hope you enjoy!

- 🌙

You had been looking forward to today for just over a week. The reason for the excitement is because you and George (your best friend who you also have a massive crush on) had made plans to build a snowman, an activity the two of you had done for years. Building a snowman with him was one of your favourite festive things to do over the entire period.

You’d just finished getting ready, choosing a warm but cute outfit and because he can’t drive, you go to his place. Once you get to George’s place, you knock. He comes out shortly after with a small bag and the two of you get to work finding a suitable place to build.

“Ooh what about here?” You turn to see where George is suggesting and agree with the spot.

As you’re walking to the spot, George empties out the bag he was carrying and you see a range of decorations for the snowman. He’d already gathered a couple sticks and stones for the arms and face so you were ready to get to it.

“You’re prepared, George” he gives no notice to the teasing tone you use.

“Of course, there’s no way I could trust you to do it” you roll your eyes at the joking jab.

You spend the next 20 or so minutes constructing the perfect snowman with George, leaving only the decoration to go. After admiring your work, you join George at the pile of decorations.

“What should we start with? We should probably do the arms before the coat, right?” He nods at your suggestion and grabs the sticks, ready to get started.

He puts the arms on the middle of the snowman before taking the coat you’re holding out to him and placing it over top. While he was doing this, you were grabbing the stones and carrot for the face. You start to place them on just as he finished placing the coat.

“Alright, now we’ve just got the hat left” you nod at his words before handing him the hat which he places on almost immediately.

Stepping back, you take a photo of the finished build then tell George to pose with the snowman for another photo. As you’re making sure you have some good photos for Instagram, you’re hit with something cold. Looking down, you see your coat covered in snow and hear a cackle coming from George. This idiot just threw a snowball at you.

“What the fuck, George?!” You try to sound angry but the smile made its way onto your face anyway. He laughs at your inability to stay mad at him.

Wanting to prove you actually were annoyed with him, you gathered some snow and launched it full force at his chest. He watched you gather the snow but still acts shocked regardless before throwing another snowball. This then turned into a full blown snowball fight.

George and you threw countless amounts of snowballs for about 10 minutes before he got a phone call. The two of you call a temporary truce while he deals with that while you wait patiently. However, the phone call had now been going on for almost 10 minutes and you were getting bored. Picking up a snowball, you sneakily creep up to George who had his back to you. Taking a running start, you jump up and dunk the snowball on his head. As soon as the snow makes contact with his head, he turns to face you.

Unfortunately, you put a little too much power into your jump and you ended up falling forward causing both you and George to fall into the snow behind George. You’re now very close to his face and the two of you hold eye contact for what feels like forever. You see his gaze flicker down to your lips and he leans in. The kiss is brief but you didn’t care how long it was, only that you were kissing the person you had feelings for.  

Pulling away, you avoid George’s eyes in fear of his reaction. There was no way your friendship would ever return to its previous state. You were terrified yet excited at the possible new direction it could take.

“I like you” you gather up courage and seize what seems like the perfect opportunity to confess the feelings you’ve been harbouring.

“I like you too” neither of you have moved from the position you fell into. He gives you a smile which you return.

Not being able to resist, you grab a handful of snow and mix into his hair causing you to giggle at his surprise. Your antics cause your truce to be called off and the snowball fight to continue.

Eventually you call for a truce which causes George to poke fun at you for ‘losing’, but you think you both came out as winners.

Tales of Christmas Day 8 - cc!Dream x gn!reader

Genre - established relationship, meeting the family!, Christmas

Word count - 504

You’re currently in the room you shared with your boyfriend, Dream trying to help him choose a suitable outfit. You’d already chosen your outfit so it was now Dream’s turn and he was analysing every option.

“Babe, you’ll look great no matter what” you giggle at his determination to find the perfect outfit.

“But I need to look perfect, they need to love me” he was so nervous for tonight, it was sweet.

Tonight is the first time Dream is meeting your family and it just so happens to also be Christmas Eve. Christmas is your favourite time of year and you looked forward to your favourite person meeting your family on your favourite holiday. It means a lot to you that he was trying to make it go as well as possible.

“They will because I love you” he smiles at your words and returns the words before returning to his closet.

It takes another 10 minutes but eventually you’re both good to go. Once you’re in the car, it takes about 20 minutes to get to your parent’s house. You knock on the door and only need to wait several seconds before the door is flung open and you’re pulled into an almost crushing hug. Pulling back you see it’s your mother and she gives the same treatment to Dream before gesturing you both inside.

“They’re here!” Your mother’s yell causes you to hear the pitter patter of feet heading towards you.

Soon you see the rest of your immediate family appear in front of you. There are more hugs for both you and your boyfriend and you see him shoot you a look while you send him a thumbs up. Shortly you’re all ushered to the dining room, with you staying back with Dream. You smile reassuringly before nudging him gently, he returns the smile and grabs your hand. After making sure no help is needed, you sit down at the table, Dream directly to your right.

“So Dream, what do you do?” Dream takes a deep breath before explaining his job as a content creator.

After a short good intentioned interrogation, it was time to eat. There was a mouthwatering turkey along with sides and drinks. Conversation continued over dinner with more questions being thrown your boyfriend’s way. The further into the night it got, the more you could see how much your family loved him.

Dinner eventually came to an end and the two of you were sent home with leftovers. As soon as you get in the car, you turn to Dream expectantly. He pulls out of the driveway before speaking.

“That went a lot better than I expected, I think” you nod at his words.

“I know you were nervous but you did great and I can tell they love you, baby” your words seem to ease his nerves a little more and he nods.

Both of you chat about the night and your family and you couldn’t be more certain that Dream was the perfect fit.

This one isn’t really Christmas focused but it’s mentioned!

- 🌙

Karl was currently sitting cross legged on your bed watching you sort through your wardrobe. Sapnap was picking you up in an hour and all you had left to do was change.

“What if you wear something orange?” His suggestion comes after a sip of monster. You consider it briefly.

“You don’t think it’s too much?” He shakes his head and you look to see if you have anything suitable.

Taking another look, you spot a long sleeved orange turtle neck. Bold, but it’s orange and it’ll keep you warm while you’re outside in the cold weather. Turning to Karl, you hold it up to your body.

“If you wear that with your black coat, I think it’ll be good” nodding, you place the turtle neck next to Karl on the bed before getting the coat.

After choosing the rest of your outfit, you change while Karl covers his eyes. You tell him you’re done before showing off your outfit, ending in him giving his approval. Satisfied with your outfit, Karl gives you one last pep talk and tells you to call him after, before leaving. You scroll through TikTok to distract yourself until you hear a knock at the door. Before answering you make sure you have everything you need, taking a deep breath for good measure. You open the door to find Sapnap standing on the otherwise. Making sure to shut the door behind you, you follow him to his car.

“How you doing y/n?” His attempt at small talk makes you smile.

“I’m good, how’ve you been?” His reply is similar to yours. By this time, you’re both situated in his car with him in the driver’s seat.

“I like your shirt, it’s orange” you mentally thank Karl for the idea before replying.

“Thanks, it was for you” he laughs before the car returns to silence. But this time a comfortable one.

Getting to the fair ground, the two of you exit the car and head to the ticket booth. Sapnap pays for the both of you, grabbing your hand after you thank him. You could slightly see the blush on his face that you’re sure mirrors yours. Entering the grounds you come face to face with multiple carnival games that no doubt rigged, but you were willing to try anyway.

“You wanna win some games?” your suggestion peaks Sapnap’s interest and he nods happily. Choosing a game took a few minutes but you eventually agreed upon a classic. Knocking over a block tower with a ball.

Heading to the booth, you buy tickets and compete with your date to see who can do the best. After a competitive match, you come out victorious and you pick a panda stuffed animal as your prize. A bit predictable but you thought it was cute and you wanted to give it to Sapnap. Turning to him, you clear your throat before speaking.

“Hey Sapnap, I won this for you” he smiles before accepting your offer.

“I’m gonna win one for you too” your face heats up at how determined he sounds.

It takes a few tries but Sapnap is eventually able to win you a stuffed animal. The worker asks which one he wants and thinks for a minute before making his decision.

“I’ll take the puppy one, please” he thanks the worker as they hand him his desired prize.

“Here you are! A puppy that’s almost as cute as you” the compliment catches you off guard and your cheeks turn a rosy pink.

“Thank you. Did you wanna get some food?” He smiles before nodding and holding out his free hand. You take it with the hand not holding the puppy plush.

Sapnap leads you to an area filled with food stalls and food trucks and you feel your stomach rumble quietly seeing all the options available. Sapnap seems to be in the same predicament as you, everything just looked so good. Hot food and drinks were a must because it’s freezing and fits the Christmas spirit. On that note, you decide on a hot chocolate and a freshly baked gingerbread cookie. Sapnap pays for the both of you and you smile, thanking him. He gives you the cutest smile in reply before nodding towards a surprisingly empty table. Sitting down you realise the sun was starting to set.

“Woah, the sun’s setting already” you couldn’t believe how fast time had gone.

“Oh it is, what the hell?” the time has clearly gotten away from him too.

While taking a sip of your hot chocolate, your gaze drifts towards something big in the near distance. Your eyes light up upon realising it’s a Ferris wheel.

“Look, it’s a Ferris wheel! Can we please go on it?” he seems a bit hesitant but gives in to your puppy eyes almost instantly.

You try to finish your drink and cookie as quick as possible without burning your mouth, causing Sapnap to chuckle at your excitement. He finishes his food, with you not far behind him. Once you’re both done, you stand up and throw your rubbish away before heading for the Ferris wheel. In your excitement you unknowingly grab his hand and almost pull him the rest of the way. You quickly stand in line chat to pass the time.

This was most definitely the best first date you’d been on. You knew you liked Sapnap beforehand but this just solidified it. He was everything you wanted in a potential partner and the more you talked to him, the more you discovered how close to ideal he was. Before long the two of you were next in line. Sapnap let’s you in the capsule first, with a hand on your waist for good measure. Even after sitting down you could still feel your waist tingle where he touched.

Soon after you sat down, you feel the capsule begin to move. Sapnap stiffens a little next to you and in a moment of courage you grab his hand. You feel him relax again and you smile seeing the effect the little gesture made. The view from the capsule was breathtaking, especially with the sunset peaking out from behind the clouds.

“Look at the sunset! It’s so pretty” your eyes are wide, staring at the setting sun and oblivious to the eyes boring into the side of your head.

In that moment, Sapnap could have sworn you shone brighter than any star, including the sun. You thought the world of him too, and the view made you look at Sapnap in delight. When you turn, you make eye contact with him, with neither of you choosing to break it. A few seconds go by before his eyes flick to your lips then back to your eyes as if asking for permission. Silently you nod, his hands cup your face almost instantly. The kiss is sweet but brief as he pulls away too soon for your liking. He smiles at you as he readjusts his seating position, which is difficult due to the uncomfortable seat in the capsule. Your specific capsule had reached the top, giving you the ultimate view somehow making it even more romantic. Silence takes over for a couple of minutes, the two of you enjoying the view and the company.

“I had an amazing time tonight, thank you” you turn to him again, your words breaking the comfortable silence.

“Me too, you wanna do it again sometime?” he laughs at your enthusiastic nod while you smile at him.

The Ferris wheel ride may have ended soon after, but you couldn’t wait to kiss him again.

It’s mid-December and everything was well and truly in full swing for Christmas in your home state of North Carolina. You were excited to decorate, watch Christmas films and do everything festive. Even if it was in the lead up to Christmas, you still had to do your regular routine.

Checking the mail you see a red in colour envelope sitting the in the mailbox. You open it, careful not to rip the contents inside.

Day 1 - Kinoko Kingdom

The message inside the envelope contains details on how to get into a specific Minecraft world. You walk quickly to your computer, putting on your headset while your computer turns on. You input the details and load in to see a sign with writing on it, telling you to make a mushroom stew and put it in the hopper. Completing the task, you’re dropped underground into a room with a lectern in the centre with a book. Opening the book there’s a message saying that whoever built this was a secret admirer of sorts and that more was to come.

Day 2 - Frequented Cafe

Day 2 led you to a cafe nearby your house. Walking in, you’re greeted by your normal barista who hands you another red envelope and your usual order. Sitting at the table you take a sip before opening the envelope. It contains a short poem about Christmas and spending it with your significant other.

Day 3 - Mutual Friend

You wake up and check your phone to see that Tina had sent you a link to a song along with a message. Clicking on it, you sit up as ‘You Make It Feel Like Christmas’ by Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton plays through your phone speakers. Reading the message it says that every day is related to something about the friendship you have with the secret admirer or something that reminds them of you. 

Day 4 - Narrowed Down

Today you received another red envelope but today’s contained a film title. The film is one you watched with your friends the first time you all met up after Dream’s face reveal. This was your first real clue because it had to be someone in that group, narrowing it down to DTQK plus Punz and Foolish. 

Day 5 - You Are My World

The 5th day you received a package as well as the regular red envelope. You first look at the envelope and see a Twitch link. Entering it into your computer you see it’s a link to a vod for a stream you were in last year with Foolish, Karl, Tina, Sylvee and Punz. It was a stream where the 6 of you made snow globes and it was one of your favourite streams. Opening the package you pull out a snow globe, except this one was expertly made and extremely beautiful. Inspecting the globe, you see the words ‘you are my world’ etched into the front.

Day 6 - Colourful Hint

On day 6 you received a hand decorated Christmas ornament in the colour purple along with the token red envelope. The message hints at the fact that the ornament gives a hint to their identity.

Day 7 - Playlist That Reminds Me Of You

Waking up on day 7, your phone shows a YouTube link sent to you by Quackity. Following it you see it’s a playlist on YouTube called ‘Reminders of y/n’, you hit shuffle get ready for the day.

Day 8 - Supermarket Shenanigans

On day 8 you received an envelope guiding you to a supermarket 15 minutes or so away with instructions to buy a few snack foods. Thinking back you remember coming to this supermarket with Punz ,Foolish and Karl because it’s the closest to Karl’s house. Now it was down to Foolish, Punz or Karl.

Day 9 - When He Realised Feelings

The envelope for today contained a list of well known Christmas lights displays along with a picture that was taken last year. You connected the dots realising that the picture was taken when you, Foolish, Punz, Karl and Tina drove around to several of the locations on the list. You’re thankful for the hint since there was only 3 days left. 

Day 10 - Ducks At The Park

As expected, you receive a red envelope in your mailbox on day 10. There’s a picture of some ducks and a message. It’s another location, this time leading you to a beautiful park close to your house that you visited with Foolish, Punz, Tina and Karl. You remember feeding ducks with them before taking heaps of photos. Following the message, you take some bread and go to feed the ducks just like you did that day.

Day 11 - Christmas Spirit

It was the second to last day and you were anxiously awaiting the next red envelope. When you finally receive it you almost tear it open and see a message. It’s another playlist link, this time to a Christmas one called ‘I Don’t Give A Fuck About Spirit’. The title no doubt being a nod to Dream’s horse on the SMP.

Day 12 - Gingerbread Message

It was the last day and you were hoping you’d get an answer to the secret admirer’s identity today. Instead there’s a knock at your door around lunchtime. You open the door to a delivery man holding a cute festive box with the expected red envelope. Thanking the delivery man, you take the box inside and open the red envelope. All it said was to enjoy the cookies so you open the box and see an assortment of beautifully decorated gingerbread cookies. What catches your attention, however, is the writing telling you a place and time to meet your secret admirer.

It was finally time to find out the identity of the secret admirer after what felt like an eternity. Following the instructions on the cookies, you turn up to the designated place (the same park from day 10) and see someone standing at the gazebo. Getting closer you’re able to see it’s Karl. You’re relieved as you have feelings for Karl, however, you’re also happy because this means your feelings are returned. It doesn’t take long until your face to face with your now not so secret admirer in the gazebo.

“You came” Karl’s words are the first to break the silence.

“Of course I did, how could I not? The entire thing was so sweet, Karl. Thank you” he smiles at the compliment and you grab his hand.

“I really like you, y/n” instead of answering, you decide to lean in.

Meeting you halfway, your lips touch. This was definitely the best gift you could receive.

Christmas was right around the corner and your friends had decided to host a Christmas party. All of you were currently sitting in a Discord vc trying to decide who was able to plan it. It was already established it would be held in Florida at the Dream Team house since a few of you already lived in Florida, you included.

“How about we get y/n and Punz to do it?” You had barely been paying attention but this brought your focus back to the conversation. Dream had some really great ideas, however, this wasn’t one of them.

“What? That’s literally the worst idea ever”

The reason this was such a bad idea was because of your relationship with Punz, or better yet, lack thereof. The two of you had just never gotten along for some reason, which made it a little weird for the rest of your friends. It was never too bad, just a few comments here and there. It sucked, though because you had feelings for him.

“I hate to admit it, but they’re right” it was a rare occurrence for Punz to agree with you so you took the little victory.

“That’s exactly why the two of you are going to plan it” Dream’s idea was met with agreement from everyone except for you and Punz so it looked like you didn’t have a choice.

The vc was active for another hour after that, and you message Punz soon after it ends.

‘we should meet tomorrow to get the planning over with’ you see his name pop up as he types a reply.

‘okay, you wanna come over at like 2pm?’ you react with a thumps up emoji.

*the next day*

Glancing at your phone, you see the time is 1:02pm. You had just finished your lunch and thought it was time to get ready before you had to leave soon. It takes a few minutes to survey your wardrobe and pick an outfit, which you put on before grabbing your bag and heading out the door.

As you approach Punz’s door 20 or so minutes later, you knock twice. Soon after he answers and gestures you to follow him inside. He leads you to his living room where he sits on the couch, you following right after.

“So, where should we start?” Your question comes out at the same time as his.

“Do you want anything to drink?” Both you laugh slightly, with you choosing to answer his.

“A water would be great, thanks” he nods before leaving to return several minutes later, 2 glasses in hand.

The two of you get to work, starting on solidifying a guest list.

“Do we have to invite those idiots? They are the ones who forced us to be in this situation” your light suggestion gains a laugh from Punz.

“So you’re saying you want me all to yourself?” You scoff, playfully rolling your eyes. If only he knew how true that was.

“What if that is what I’m saying?” Although it was true, you couldn’t let him be the only one making comments like that.

You seem to have hit the nail on the head because of his reaction. His eyes widened slightly and a slight blush appeared on his cheeks before he responds.

“Then I would say that I want you all to myself too” your flirty facade was broken by his admission and it was your turn to blush.

“I- we can’t tell them that they were right, we’ll never hear the end of it” you flop backwards dramatically, resting your head on the top of the couch. He agrees, knowing as well as you do that this was their plan in the first place.

After learning your feelings are reciprocated, the two of you go back to planning the rest of the party now finding it easier to agree. Now that your feelings were out in the open, you and Punz flirted freely back and forth.

Needless to say, your friends were pretty happy with the the results of their plan (and the party the two of you planned).

I’ve never been ice skating before so I apologise if anything is wrong!

- 🌙

One of the best things about winter time is Christmas and one of your favourite winter/Christmas activities is ice skating. This meant it was a no brainer to ask your favourite person to do your favourite activity with you. At first he was a little hesitant due to his lack of experience, but he knew how much you loved it so he agreed.

“I’m so excited, Alex!” You pulled Quackity through the car park towards the skating rink.

Getting closer you see an array of Christmas decor paired with a cute little cafe. Quackity smiles softly at the way your eyes light up upon seeing the Christmas wonderland. You’re not sure whether to go to the cafe first, take a look around at the Christmas decorations or go skating.

“What do we do first?” You turn to your boyfriend and he thinks for a second before offering his suggestion.

“We could take a look at the decorations first, then do some skating and finish off with a hot drink?” You nod excitedly at the order before grabbing his hand and dragging him towards the big tree.

The tree is several feet tall and covered head to toe in lights and ornaments. Blues and whites made up the majority of the colour scheme, matching the ice and light snow that had fallen on the ground. Scattered around the grounds were different Christmas themed statues from reindeers to an inflatable sleigh. You and Quackity spent the next 30-40 minutes looking at and taking pictures of and with different parts of the display, continuously in awe of its beauty.

“I think it’s time for the main event babe” you agree with your boyfriend and both you make your way to the rink.

The two of you pay the worker and tell them your size, taking the skates to a nearby bench. The rink had a few people already skating but it wasn’t as busy as you thought. After putting on your skates, you make your way onto the ice. Quackity is unsteady so you take the chance to hold his hand, helping him keep his balance.

You go through the basics with him, continuing to hold his hand when he loses his balance. Eventually he gets the hang of it and is able to skate slowly around the rink with minimal help. He grabs your hand again, this time not out of necessity but because he wants to. Skating around the rink together, you talk about other festive activities you want to do together. The two of you get off the ice shortly after to seek a hot drink after removing your skates.

Heading towards the little cafe you take a look at the menu. Not only did they have a few hot drinks available, but there was also an array of syrups and whipped cream as well. You and Quackity spend a few minutes perusing the menu before he makes sure you’re ready too. Quackity tells the barista his order before turning to you, you follow suit and make your order.

While the barista is making your drinks, you Quackity walk over to the pick up area and continue chatting about your festive plans. Your names are called and you grab your drinks, thanking the barista before finding a place to seat. Quackity points to a booth in the corner with a nice view of the rink outside.

You spent the next hour or so in the little booth in the corner, talking about anything and everything. The day had cemented your desire to spend every Christmas from here on out with your boyfriend, Quackity.

This one is a little different but I really liked the idea!

- 🌙

You and Sam had plans to complete a Christmas film advent calendar of sorts this December and you were beyond excited. Christmas was the best time of year so who better to spend it with than your best friend? The only problem, however, was that you had a huge crush on him. Sam had come to you with a list of films he’d picked out and you couldn’t deny him. You both planned out the days you’d get together and what Christmas activities you’d do together.

A Wedding for Christmas, I’ll Be Home for Christmas, Love Actually and Let It Snow

Day 1 consisted of 4 films playing in succession whilst decorating Sam’s tree. You’d already decorated yours so it was decided his tree would get the festive treatment. It was so sickeningly domestic, watching movies together while decorating the tree was something you wanted to do every single year.

You Make It Feel Like Christmas, Operation Christmas Drop and Unlocking Christmas

The next time you meet is a few days later for films and baking/decorating. Picking a basic sugar cookie recipe, you and Sam spend almost 2 hours baking and then decorating using an array of festive designs. The films played in the background but the two of you were too engrossed in a mini flour fight.

Bad Santa and El Camino Christmas

Activity number 3 was writing cards and wrapping presents you’d bought. Because it’s such a menial task, you wanted to make it fun and get a Christmas chore out of the way at the same time. It turns out that Sam was actually skilled at wrapping presents, so he taught you an easy method while you laughed along to the Netflix playing on the tv.

Merry Madagascar, It’s a Very Merry Muppet Christmas, The Noel Diary and Elf

Because this was the last batch, you and Sam bought a whole bunch of Christmas snacks to eat while watching the films. The variety of genre kept you entertained enough to not cause a food fight like the cookie debacle. After the films, Sam turns to you.

“How’d you like my movie selections, y/n?” Even though the majority had been played in the background, you’d enjoyed what you’d seen. Plus you were with Sam so you didn’t really care what you did.

“They were great!” He seems pleased with your answer but there’s something else to his smile.

“Good, because there’s something else” you’re not sure what he’s referring to which is evident by the confusion on your face.

“I picked the films for a reason, y/n. Check the first letters but leave words like the out” now you were really confused but you take the list he hands you and do what he says anyway.

“W, i, l, l, y, o, u, b- Sam what the hell does this mean?” He laughs before telling you to continue. You sigh before doing just that.

“Where was I? Oh- b, e, m, i, n, e. Will you be mine? What?” This was so sweet and almost felt like you had been sucked into one of the romcoms.

“I really like you y/n” hearing him say it out loud was a whole different feeling.

“Sam! This was so sweet- I- I like you too!”

The rest of the day is spent watching more Christmas movies and eating snacks. However, now you could cuddle up with your boyfriend.

Tales of Christmas Day 2 - cc!George x gn!reader

Genre - friends to lovers, Christmas

Word count - 1157

Back for day 2! This one is only a bit Christmas related but hopefully it’s still good.

- 🌙

Being a part of the MrBeast crew had its perks. Not only were you able to help deserving people, you also made more friends at the same time. One of those being a certain man by the name of George. You’d met him and the other DTQK members through Karl and you all got along well so you’d quickly become an honorary member.

Although you’d become friendly with the boys almost instantly, George was a little bit different. Pretty much as soon as you met him you knew you’d like him more than a friend. Yes, he was attractive but he was also funny and you loved being around him.

You were currently sitting at your computer waiting for a Discord call from George and you were super nervous. He had messaged you yesterday asking if you wanted to film a video and you agreed straight away. You weren’t sure what exactly you were filming but he had told you it was Minecraft based. While thinking of different ideas, you’re broken out of your thoughts by your Discord ringing. Waiting a few seconds just to make sure he didn’t think you were waiting, you pick up.

“Hey George!” You greet him happily and smile as he returns it. The two of you chat for a few minutes before getting into the recording.

“Alright, today’s video is going to be a Christmas themed ‘Minecraft but my friend is…’” now you were excited. These videos were your favourite to watch so you were ecstatic to be a part of one.

“Sounds fun, what’s the Christmas part?” Not a lot of ideas were obvious as to how Christmas could be related so you were curious.

“You are going to be a reindeer” somehow you were even more excited than before and you couldn’t wait to see how cute you’d be.

You load into the seed you’re using for the video and gasp excitedly at your newly acquired reindeer status. George chuckles fondly at your reaction before trying to record the intro.

“In today’s video, we will be trying to beat the game while y/n is a reindeer! They’ll be unable to break blocks and won’t be able to heal themselves. Can we beat the game before y/n dies? Keep watching to find out!” The entire time George was doing his intro, you were running around enjoying your new reindeer abilities.

“You ready to go?” You run back to George upon hearing his question.

“Yes, let’s go!”

George spends about 25 minutes gathering necessary materials for the nether while you just try to slow him down.

“Y/n, stop! You’re such an idiot” he’s pretending to be annoyed but you can hear the laughter he’s trying to hold back.

Soon after this little exchange it was time for George to head to the nether. Because the nether was dangerous enough, you felt you should chill with the messing around a little. Entering the portal spawns you in a basalt delta biome eliciting a groan from George.

“This is literally the worst biome” your statement is quickly confirmed by George and reluctantly the two of you begin to look for a fortress.

It takes about 10 minutes to finally find a fortress but luckily you found the blaze spawners quickly. While George was collecting blaze rods, you were instructed to stay out of sight so you weren’t harmed. It would have been sweet had it not been to make sure you weren’t killed in a video game.

After he managed to collect the needed blaze rods, you both made your way back towards the portal. You had run slightly ahead of George and made what you thought was a little jump. However, it turned out it was a larger jump than you thought and you took a lot of damage.

“Y/n! Be careful!” George’s scream makes you laugh before you realise that you’re dead after one more hit.

“George I need food, I’m gonna die” you see him slowly descend the cliff you jumped off before making his way to you.

Healing you back to full health, the two of you continue the journey back to the portal. Safely reaching it you travel back and George makes the ender eyes. It takes a while to travel to where the eyes lead you and the trip was full of banter and close calls. The two of you enter the stronghold and search the chests you find to try and get extra pearls, fighting mobs along the way. Eventually you find the portal room and excitedly call for George.

“I found the portal room George!” He follows your name tag and emerges from the hallway.

George breaks the silverfish spawner before putting all the eyes in the portal and handing you a few beds. You follow him in and watch as he shoots the crystals.

“Please don’t look at the stupid endermen” his plea came a little too late as you were currently being chased by two.

“Too late, GEORGE HELP” he groans before coming to help.

After dealing with the angry endermen, he shoots the remaining crystal waiting for the dragon to come down. It takes a few bed explosions and a few hits with the sword but the dragon was almost dead.

“You got this George!” not being able to do much else, you cheer him on from the sidelines.

Once the dragon comes down for hopefully the last time, George runs to the middle and beats the game. The dragon erupts in particles and the end achievement is visible in chat. You and George cheer in unison at being able to beat the game.

“I was kinda worried we weren’t gonna make it because I almost died like a million times” your laughter sounds at the end of your sentence and you hear George join you.

“There were way too many close calls” he agrees.

“How’d you make the skin so cute?” Your question was one that you’d been thinking about, because it was super cute.

“It was modelled after Callahan actually. But don’t worry, you’re a lot cuter than he is” that was potentially the last thing you were expecting to hear so you were shocked.

Your face was almost as red as your character’s nose and George was just as silent as you. Clearly he was just as shocked he’d said that out loud. Eventually you composed yourself enough to speak again.

“You think I’m cute?” You weren’t sure what else to say and you were kinda hoping he’d say it again.

“Maybe” he has a teasing edge to his voice.

“You’re an idiot” he laughs at your reaction and you can’t help but join in.

“I think you’re pretty cute too, I guess” your voice takes the same teasing tone George’s had just a minute ago.

The fact the two of you were still recording was long forgotten, with you and George talking for the rest of the night.

Tales of Christmas Day 1 - cc!Foolish x gn!reader

Genre - established relationship, Christmas

Word count - 957

Welcome to day 1 of this year’s Tales of Christmas, I’m super excited for this edition and hopefully you guys love it! Unlike last year I have a plan of what imagine is being released when so hopefully it’s less stressful lmao

- 🌙

It was late November and the weather was getting colder. It hadn’t snowed yet but it was definitely sweater worthy. You’d recently moved to North Carolina with your boyfriend of 3 years, Foolish which made this your first Christmas living together. Christmas was one of your favourite holidays and you were excited to do all the stereotypical holiday activities with your boyfriend in your own home.

You were currently getting ready in your shared bedroom while Foolish was taking a shower. Today was the day you were picking out your house’s Christmas tree. Just as you were putting on your coat, your boyfriend walks past after exiting the bathroom. He kisses your cheek quickly before he starts his usual routine. Leaving your room, you head to the kitchen to make yourself a drink while you wait for him to finish getting ready. Once the drink had been made, you scroll through TikTok while taking a sip of your drink occasionally.

“You ready, babe?” You lift your head upon hearing your boyfriend’s voice. Because you were so engrossed in your scrolling, you hadn’t heard him enter the kitchen.

“I’ve been ready since I woke up” he giggles at your response before heading to the front door. You smile softly before catching up to him and grabbing his hand.

He locks the door behind you while you let go of his hand to unlock the car. You hop in the drivers seat, putting on your seatbelt with Foolish following suit. Driving to the Christmas tree farm, you and Foolish talked about the kind of tree you wanted to buy. Thankfully, you’d remembered to measure the area it was going to go, meaning you didn’t have to worry about dimensions.

“It has to be a nice shape” Foolish nods along with your statement before adding his thoughts.

“But it also needs to be kind of weird” that sounded perfect for the two of you, traditional enough but also unique.

“Perfect! I’m so excited” Foolish smiles fondly at your excitement before agreeing.

After 40 minutes and a Christmas compilation album, you’d arrived at the farm. You were bouncing in place while waiting for Foolish to exit the car so you could lock it, unable to contain your excitement once the smell hit your nose. He laughs at your excitement before walking around the car and taking your hand. One of the workers approached you as you entered, asking if you needed help to which you politely declined.

Feeling Foolish tap your shoulder lightly, you turn to face him as he points to the cafe. You nod enthusiastically before following Foolish. Deciding what you want to order, you ask Foolish what he wants before heading to the counter. After ordering, you pay and go to meet Foolish at the pick up area where he plants a kiss on the top of your head to thank you. The two of you chat mindlessly until you hear your name signifying that your order was ready. Taking the drinks, you thank the barista and hand Foolish’s to him before taking a sip of your own. You and your boyfriend exit the cafe and return to the entrance to where your future tree resided.

“Okay, where do you wanna start?” His question stumps you as you briefly skim the lines of trees in front of you. Deciding to start from the left hand side, you gently pull your boyfriend towards that direction.

Reaching the far left, you let go of Foolish’s hand to touch the different trees lining the farm. You take a sip of your drink, deciding this tree wasn’t right. Crinkling your nose, you shake your head before turning to Foolish.

“This one isn’t right” he gives the tree a once over before nodding in agreement.

This commentary continues for the next 40 minutes, both of you holding out for that perfect tree. You weren’t entirely sure what the prefect tree would look like but you were sure you’d know when you saw it. By now, your drinks had long been consumed so you were able to link arms with your boyfriend and get a feel for the trees at the same time.

“Babe, look at this one” you have a cheeky smile on your face as you point out one that was clearly not what you were after. He laughs before shaking his head at your joke.

“What about this one?” His grin matches yours as he gestures to a different one. The laughter dies off and you smile happily at your boyfriend. He kisses you briefly before retaking your hand and getting back to the matter at hand.

Approximately 10 more minutes passes before you and Foolish both point out the same tree. Both of you are excited to not only find the perfect tree, but also to agree. It takes about another 20 minutes to buy your tree and fit it to the car but you’re happy it’s finally time to head home. Getting situated in the car again, you look back at the tree once more before making the journey home.

It was difficult getting the tree through the door and into the lounge but you got there. Making sure it was situated exactly how you wanted it, you turned to Foolish to get his thoughts. He gives you his approval before you nestle into his side and marvel at the tree.

“I think we should decorate it tomorrow” you agree with Foolish’s idea, thinking it was better suited for a new day. You’d spent enough time on the tree already.

“Good idea, you wanna order food?” He smiles, nodding.

The rest of your evening was spent eating takeout and watching a movie in front of your new Christmas tree.

Drunk on Each Other - cc!Quackity x gn!reader

Genre - friends to lovers

Warnings - language and mentions of alcohol/drinking

Word count - 2013

THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR 50 FOLLOWERS! ♥️♥️

This was very much inspired by Karl and Quackity’s drunk Roblox stream they did a month ago because that’s one of my favourite streams ever!

-🌙

Your friendship group’s dynamic was about to change for the better. Nerves were high among your friends but the accompanying excitement trumped it all. The reason for this was because George was in Florida. Finally, after years, he was in Florida. You and Quackity decided to stream together to hype up the vlog release then end when George said he was uploading it. You’d just finished Quackity’s stream in which he tried on outfits chat had chosen for Twitcon, unsurprisingly they weren’t exactly suitable but they were funny.

Quackity is getting your drinks ready in the kitchen while you set up your stream and open the game so it was all ready to go. You start the stream and do a quick wave to your chat.

“Hi chat, hope you’re having a great day! Today we’re going to be drinking and playing a Roblox horror game before a certain upload” your chat starts freaking out at the cryptic mention of the vlog. Once you’ve done your little intro, Quackity walks over and joins you in frame.

“Hello, hello chat” Quackity does his iconic voice and you smile at how excited your chat is despite most of them having just seen him on his stream.

“Okay, so we’re going to be playing a game called Doors today. The point is to get through as many doors as possible and any time we get scared, we have to take a shot” after explaining you make the game visible to chat and gesture for Quackity to go first. He stares at you for a second before sitting down.

He manages to get the controls down pretty quick and gets through almost 5 doors until the first jumpscare.

“What the fuck was that?” He grabs the headphones while you laugh and shoo him away to take a shot.

“I don’t know why I’m laughing cause I’m probably gonna be just as bad” you whisper to your chat, starting your turn.

By the time Quackity has returned a minute or 2 later, you’ve gotten past his record. He sits down and you notice that he brought his drink with him.

“Look, I’m already better than you” he glares at you before rolling his eyes and telling you focus on the game. You manage to get all the way to door 23 before jumping out of your seat. Quackity bursts into laughter, clapping at the little scream you let out.

You take off the headphones before standing up and heading to the kitchen. You take a deep breath before downing the shot and pulling a face. You hear Quackity laugh quietly (presumably from the reaction to the shot) before you take his place at the computer. You’d both been at the game for about a half hour now and the alcohol was starting to hit you both, although it seemed to hit you more than Quackity.

You watch in amusement as he gets in and out of the wardrobes scattered throughout the rooms.

“Alex don’t stay in there too long” You laugh softly while shaking your head as he hums but continues anyway.

“I’m serious, they’ll literally kill you if you’re in there too long” you glance from him to the screen to make sure he’s not dying unnecessarily. He got out of the wardrobe and continued to the next door.

“Oh shit okay” he continues through the next 9 doors before dying again. His death was around the hour mark and even in your drunken haze you see your phone light up with a notification.

‘Having technical issues, it’ll be a bit longer’

“Uh oh” Quackity whips his head towards you upon hearing you speak. You don’t say anything, instead opting to show him the message. It’s now you realise that you’re too drunk to play a game and the fact that Quackity hasn’t restarted tells he feels the same.

Quackity stands up and puts his hand on your shoulder before speaking.

“Talk about a topic, I’ll be back” you clearly didn’t quite take in what he had said which was evident by your next sentence.

“Topic? What’s the topic?” You look confusedly at chat, finding that you have to squint because of your cloudy vision. You end up chatting about random things before Quackity comes back a couple minutes later with another drink in his hand.

“You’re drinking still?” You have a slight slur in your speech which doesn’t go unnoticed by Quackity. He hums before sitting down again.

“Where’s my beanie?” His question causes your head to turn towards him before you shrug silently. He stands up again and heads to the kitchen. You read a chat message saying that his beanie was on the chair he was just sitting in.

“Alex?” He turns to you and tilts his head.

“Your beanie is on your chair you idiot” he laughs before coming up behind your chair and wrapping his arms loosely around your shoulders. Your cheeks heat up from the contact and almost as soon as you register it, it’s gone.

He picks up his beanie and instead of replacing the stupid hat he has on, he puts it on your head instead. He retakes his seat while you use the stream to move the beanie so the logo is to the side. He leans over and faces the logo towards the front like normal but you’re quick to move it again.

“What’re you doing? It faces forward” you shake your head at his insistence for something so minimal before explaining.

“I’m hiding the logo” he makes a face acknowledging your reasoning before speaking again.

“Can I tell you something?” The tone of his voice makes your heart race a little bit because of how it changed. You nod your head before blankly staring at the computer desk in front of you, trying to mentally prepare for whatever he could possibly say.

“When I first met you in person, something changed” your eyes widen slightly while you wonder what he could possibly mean by that. Unfortunately for you, he doesn’t give any further context and you’re not quite drunk enough to try and prompt it out of him. He quickly moves onto another topic after getting sidetracked by a message in chat.

After an hour of talking about nonsense and touches that set your skin on fire, you clear your throat before walking to the kitchen to pour another drink. You can still hear Quackity faintly while you lean against the counter. Taking a second to breathe, you realise just how drunk you are. Deciding this would be your last alcoholic drink, you return to the stream.

“You know what, y/n?” You hum, encouraging him to continue before averting your gaze back to the same spot on the desk as before.

“You’re great and I missed you” his words catch you off guard and you wonder how drunk he must be to say this on stream. In your periphery you can see the speed at which chat moves increase significantly.

“What the fuck” this is the only response you can muster as you breathe out a laugh. He giggles before continuing.

“I feel like I don’t tell you enough” a blush creeps up onto your face but you’re not sure how much is due to the alcohol. You see your chat spamming about your red face and you hope he doesn’t see it. Somehow you seem to get away with it for a second time.

10 minutes later and you’re talking about comfort content and comfort creators. You’d never said your favourite comfort streamer to your chat before, but the liquid courage currently circulating around your body made you want to.

“Mine is actually uh-“ you stop yourself abruptly, wondering what his reaction would be.

“Y/n?” You briefly make eye contact with him causing a lump in your throat. Against your better judgement you take another sip and continue.

“My comfort streamer is actually you” you see a look of surprise plastered across his face out of the cornier of your eye.

“You’re so cute what the fuck” you knew you were done for now. There was absolutely no way you were getting away with your reaction this time. Right on cue, chat starts spamming about how your face is as red as a Minecraft poppy. This time he takes notice of the rate that chat is moving.

“What’s wrong chat? Why are you all freaking out?” You get ready to say goodbye to your friendship with Quackity.

“Oh, you’re blushing. Why’re you so flustered y/n?” you know he’s looking at you, but you can’t bring yourself to look at him. You don’t want to the see the look on his face. The way you can hear your heartbeat in your ears combined with the chat messages and the feel of Quackity’s eyes boring into the side of your head was too much.

“It’s hard not to be flustered when the person you have feelings for calls you cute in front of thousands of people!” Your voice is raised only slightly, not in anger but in fear. His eyes widen at your confession and you don’t even want to think about how chat is reacting.

At this point you don’t care if George is almost ready to upload the vlog. You just want to stop the stream and deal with this away from the prying eyes of your viewers. The stream ends suddenly due to Quackity pressing the end button, he could tell you weren’t in the right space to stream right now.

“Hey, look at me, okay?” You shake your head softly, wrapping your arms around your chest as a last ditch to try and shield yourself. By now, there were silent tears streaming down your face at the prospect of having ruined your friendship with one of the most important people in your life.

“Y/n” he gets up and approaches you from the other side. He crouches down to look up at you like you do with a small child. Now being able to see your face, this is when he sees your tears. He pulls his right sleeve over his hand and dabs at your face gently in an effort to rid your face of tears. His efforts prove fruitless when new ones instantly replaced those he wipes away.

“I’m sorry” your voice is small, half hoping he didn’t hear you at all. He smiles softly, half that you were now responding. The alcohol amplified the emotions you were feeling and left your head reeling trying to catch up to the thoughts in your head.

“I shouldn’t have said that. I wasn’t thinking and I got too drunk” he clears his throat, giving up on catching your eye.

“No, I’m glad you did” his words surprise you and without thinking you tilt your head to face him. It takes a second to process that he was really saying this, that it wasn’t your drunk brain trying to turn the situation positive.

“What?” Your posture changes slightly with a quick wiggle.

“I like you, y/n” it was clear to you that Quackity had sobered up quite a bit at this point. He was still feeling the effects a little but he was in a much better state than you.

Having him so close, gazing up at you while under the influence proved to be a fatal combo. Cupping his face gently, you tilt it up towards you so you can kiss him. You pull away soon after and he laughs before pulling you back in. The second kiss lasts seconds longer and when you pull away he reiterates his feelings for you. You’ve never felt so many emotions in such a small amount of time but you wouldn’t change it.

You wrap your arms around Quackity, feeling him return the gesture before realising how tired you are.

“I’m tired” he rubs circles on your back while you speak.

“Let’s go to bed” he smiles and grabs your hand, leading you to his bedroom. It isn’t long before you fall asleep, nestled into Quackity’s side.
