Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence

i found the kayn tweet. i like the implication that the eastern part of the noxian empire is central asia coded, be it because it's always been like that, or if it was ever ( or still is ) part of ionia and it's something noxus acquired through conquest and expansion; because runeterra takes a lot of heavy inspiration from our world and geography ( as many fantasy elements do, because where else could it come from, you know. as we all know, fantasy geography and politics are very much inspired from real life things ).

but given michael and odin wrote him to be half white and half asian ( i choose to not say hapa here because i want to say hapa is exclusive for hawaiians, similarly as hafu is like for half japanese folk ), geographically it makes sense.

anyways i'm yapping and no one cares but my point is that ethnic representation in league of legends is actually so important to me and i will be very loud about any champion but sivir reminded me of this tweet too because like wdym people are using indian actresses for an egyptian character's face claim. yikes! when i say soo la voo this is not what i mean!

Merry Little Christmas (Baby John x OC) *Christmas Special* 🎄

Summary: Baby John invites his best friend to spend Christmas with him and his mother.

Usually the holidays are supposed to be a time to celebrate time with family. But when you’ve grown up being an orphan, family is a very loose term.

“No, no! For the last time, Jonathon Feld, no!” I argue as I try to see through the blinding snow, clutching my ragged coat around me.

“It’s no trouble, Kelly. Please!”

Here’s the trouble: I’ve known Johnny nearly my whole life, and he’s being overly generous. Every year I’ve usually had a family to spend Christmas with, whether it be through church, the orphanage, or even some-a the Jet families. But this year everyone’s either too busy or already has plans. At first I was disappointed, but learned to accept it. The problem is that once Johnny heard about my predicament he immediately insisted that I spend Christmas with his family.

“Johnny, you know I can’t do that!” I debate as we make our way through Central Park. “That’s your time with your mother! I’m not going to impose on that.”

“You won’t be!” The youngest Jet tries to assure me. “My ma would luv you, you know that! She’d never turn anyone down at Christmas.”

After we get past the next snowbank I turn to face him. “That’s my point, John. I won’t make anyone feel obligated to take me in just because they feel sorry for me. You guys deserve time to yourselves, especially since this is your first Christmas without your father.”

For a split second Baby John gets a somber look in his eyes, but then shakes it away.

“Yeah, it’ll be different this year. But you need to have someone to celebrate Christmas with. You won’t impose, I promise! I know just as much as you about all the different families you’ve hopped from, and I wanna give you a real Christmas. Please? It’ll be my gift to you.”

I open my mouth to keep declining, but he holds up a hand. “And before you say that you don’t need a gift, forget it! You always sell yourself short and give what you have to others without any thought of yourself.” He grabs my hand and starts leading me down the wrong side of the fork in the path. “You’re spending Christmas with me, no buts about it. For God’s sake, it’s a blizzard out here!”

I can’t believe it. I’m being forced into this?!

I try to tug away but John’s hold stays firm. “You can’t make me-!”

“Yes, I can,” Johnny says cockily and gives me a devilish grin. “You lost that card game to me last week, so you owe me.”

I scrunch my nose in confusion as he continues to lead me through the deep snow.

“So… I repay you by you forcing me to spend Christmas with you? That seems contradictive.”

“Too late! We’re already here,” Baby John smiles with glee as he leads me up the stairs to his apartment. It’s small to him, but to me it’s a mansion. I’ve always told Johnny how lucky he is to have a permanent roof over his head.

Before I can reject him again, Baby John pushes me inside and shuts the door.

“Ma! I’m home! I brought Kelly with me!”

In no less than 5 seconds, John’s mother comes rushing into the hallway to embrace me in a giant hug.

“Willkommen, dear child! Come in, come in!” She gushes and starts examining me top to bottom. “Are you hungry? Sweet child, you are freezing! Come here and sit by the fire.”

I can barely get a word in! “Thank you, Mrs. Feld. I’m sorry for showing up last minute, but your son insisted-”

“Ma, I invited Kelly to spend Christmas with us because she’s alone this year. Is that ok?”

Mrs. Feld looks as if Johnny’s just asked if snow is cold. “Is that even a question? Of course she can stay! You kids go warm up and chat, I will finish preparing dinner.”

Immediately I start following her to the kitchen apologizing for intruding and offering to pitch in, but she just shoos me away.

“Nonsense! You are welcomed here any time, child! You are Johnny’s dearest friend, and we are honored to have you here.”

She hurries back down the hall and I’m left with Baby John, who ushers me to the tiny living room. Inside there’s a humble tree set up next to the couch with a few decorations. One might say that this meager-looking household isn’t worth much, but to me it’s priceless.

“Here, Kelly! You can sit here.” John pats the couch and throws me a blanket. “Are you warm enough?”

Indeed, there’s a warm feeling spreading through me faster than wildfire.

I give him a smile and drape the soft blanket over my shoulders. “I- Yes, I am! Come on, you sit down too. You’s just as bushed as I am.”

Johnny obliges and jumps onto the small couch next to me, while I’m trying so hard not to get carried away. But it doesn’t help when he scooches in even closer.

“Thank you, Johnny.” I playfully ruffle his hair. “You- You can’t imagine how much this means to me! I just wish there was something I could give you.”

His childish face shows bright eyes and a kind smile. “Kelly, you’s my best friend. That’s as good a gift as anything in the world.”

I scoff. “Johnny, I luv ya dearly, but someday I’m gonna repay ya for this-”

I cut myself off, because Baby John has a new look that appears as if I just sprouted wings.

“Kelly, you said… Do you- You luv me?”

I stay quiet, letting an eerie silence settle in. What am I supposed to say? ‘Yes, John. I’ve luved you ever since you first said “hi,” and still can’t believe that a nice guy like you hasn’t got a goil yet.?’ I simmer over every different response in my head, and can’t think of a way I can squeeze outta this.

After taking a deep breath, I force myself to look over at my innocent friend.

“Yes. I do, Johnny. Is that wrong, since you’ve helped me out so much? How could I not?” I give a noivous laugh. “I mean, given how considerate and adorable I don’t understand how you’s haven’t had goil lining up just to meet ya.”

Usually I’s a fan of being blunt, but in this scenario it’s like my heart just got stabbed with an icicle. How could I say that? John invited me to spend Christmas with him and I gotta start gush’n ‘bout how luvsick I am!

 It doesn’t help that Baby John’s just sitting there, mouth opened wide and eyes nearly popping outta his face. Now I’ve ruined everything.

I give a heavy sigh and give him a pat on the shoulder before I start walking toward the exit. “I’m sorry, John. I understand if, uh, you don’t wanna talk now. Thanks again for inviting me here. Merry Chri-!”

“How could you ever think I didn’t already luv you?” Johnny interrupts, and my face freezes. “Kelly, I’ve invited you to every family event in the past year, get heated up whenever anodda guy so much as looks at you, and, heck, literally just got the blessing from my ma to ask you out yesterday!” He rushes over to me and blocks my path, meanwhile I have no inkling as to how to respond. But I don’t have to, because John knows exactly what I’m thinking and comfortingly takes my hand. “I’m noivous too, angel. So… here it goes.” He gulps and licks his lips anxiously. “Uh, Kelly… Would you maybe wanna go out sometime this week after Christmas? Maybe when it’s not a billion degrees below zero?”

My whole body is shaking, tears threatening to spill. Did I hear that right? 

“Is this real?” I whisper almost too quietly. “Not like one-a those movies? I- I donno what to say. No one’s wanted me enough to let me stay. Is… This is real?”

Baby John looks almost as out of place as I feel, but takes the foist move to bring his warm hands up to cup my face. “It may not seem so, but yes.” A wide smile spreads over his eager face. “This is real, Kelly. I didn’t know what it was until Riff pointed it out. I’ve luved you for a very long time now, and I’d like to properly ask you out.”

I respond by nodding repeatedly and a surprised but grateful “Yes!” And with that, Johnny desperately slants forward and presses an intriguingly soft kiss to my lips. Testing the waters. When he sees I’m ok with it, he leans in for a deeper, more determined kiss. In the span of 30 seconds, Baby John wraps his arms around my waist, guides me back to the couch, and helps me settle down next to him all without breaking the kiss. When we lean apart he rests his forehead on mine all the while his eyes never leave mine.

“Merry Christmas, Kelly.”

My face melts at the sight-a his soft eyes, and can barely speak. “Thank you, Johnny. For everything”

We both hear a hushed commotion coming from the hallway, and turn to see Baby John’s mother nearly jumping with joy.

“At last! At last!” She cheers as she comes over to pinch our cheeks. “You two go so well together, and I finally have the hope to have grandchildren one day!”

 Both John and I exchange looks of bewilderment.

“Jeez, ma! I just asked her out!”

“One thing at a time, please?” I ask shyly. “For now let’s focus on Christmas, and the tranquility that comes with it.”

“Oh, alright.” Mrs. Feld squeezes her son one last time. “Come, come! Dinner is ready!” She scurries away again, leaving us both dazed and frazzled.

“Johnny,” I chuckle and shake my head. “God, I luv your family.”

John groans. “Gosh, I’m sorry. She can be a little pushy sometimes.”

I arch an eyebrow. “If you’s ever willing to switch places, I’ll do so gladly in a heartbeat.”

He smirks and pecks one last kiss on my cheek before helping me stand up. “We better go before she starts announcing our wedding day.”

I nod in agreement. “Not completely against the idea…”

John’s eyebrows raise, and I pat his cheek to show I’m not as serious.

“Not yet, John. For now let’s enjoy our merry little Christmas and forget about any future problems. I’m just glad to be here with you!”

He smiles and softly rubs a thumb against my cheek. “I’m always here for you, Kelly. I’ll luv ya ‘till the end, and we’ll always muddle through somehow.”

Fic

Y’all the funniest thing in the entire world just happened. I’ve been going down a bellarke fanfic rabbit hole again lately. Mind you there’s over 14,000 fics tagged with bellarke. I open one that is an Umbrella Academy AU and I was like omg cool I like that show! I read the authors note at the beginning and almost threw my phone at a wall??? @octannibal-blake I am not sure if you’re still active on tumblr, but hi I am Alycia. Well, I don’t actually remember making this request because it would’ve been in 2017/2018??? But I’m going to guess I was the only Alycia in the fandom with this niche interest so… Thank you!!! I am doing well, and I’m going to read it now! Lot’s of love.
