ø: Our muses cuddle by the fireplace with hot cocoa.

Careful footsteps made their way to a female figure, sitting by the fire; hugging her knees, cuddling them if she could. They came to a halt, Jieun crouching down to hand the girl the long awaited dose of hot chocolate, which Sulli graciously accepted. The former female sat down right next to the younger, stretching out her legs with a croaky sigh that sounded almost as if she’d aged 40 years. As if on cue, they both shared a glance and burst out laughing. Ah, Jieun and her ahjumma ways. Slowly, frail fingers found themselves wrapping and unwrapping around their hot mugs as both girls tried to desperately find warmth. Since these attempts seemed to be failing, Jieun extended her arm and draped her shawl around the younger.

“It’s so cold.” Jieun thought out loud, stating the obvious.

“No kidding. But I like it.” Sulli mused along with that signature smile, her eyes like two adorable crescents. She shifted closer to her unnie, gently bumping the other’s shoulder. “You know what this means?”

“Mm? No, what?" 

"It’s going to be a white Christmas.”

And with that they broke into another string of giggles, one hand warming on the hot cocoa and the other warming each other as they sat bundled up. Jieun poked an arm out towards the fire, finding it’s dimmed crackles inviting. But surprisingly, she found better warmth among the arms of the girl beside her, hence she quickly cuddled back with her. 

“It sure is, Snowflake. It sure is.”
