#misahyo au

[onceuponaloonatic]

a little jihyo centric misahyo post i've had floating around since i watched jihyo in i live alone! sorry if it seems a little disjointed, the angst wrote itself into this without my consent 🙄🙄 lots to come from this au soon!

Park Jihyo was not the type to ignore her alarm clock.

It just wasn’t in her nature. She kept a strict schedule, and to accomplish her goals, she couldn’t start her day late. Even on the weekends or when she wasn't feeling great or went to bed late, Jihyo tried to wake up at the same time everyday. There was always something she had to do, and that thought alone kept her more than motivated.

The biggest disruption to Jihyo’s routine comes in the form of one Minatozaki Sana.

Sana loved lazy mornings. Even if Jihyo would move to get out of bed, Sana would immediately pull her back down into a hug and complain that it was too early, no matter what time it was. As adorable as it was, there were times it was annoying to have to negotiate her freedom.

Mina, on the other hand, left her alone most mornings. Mina hated waking up in the mornings, and dealing with Mina’s later schedule had been an adjustment at the beginning of their relationship. Thankfully, after many negotiations, Jihyo had been able to talk Mina into getting out of bed at ten at the very latest. Sana usually wasn’t picky what time they got out of bed, just that they had filled her “daily morning hug quota” as she called it.

But two wives who hated getting out of bed in the morning were nothing compared to a child who refused to wake up on time.

Nico’s birth threw an entire new layer of complications into Jihyo’s mornings. Nico had taken after Mina, and hated waking up in the morning about as much as she hated bedtime. However, every parenting book Jihyo read stressed the importance of routine with children, and Mina’s inconsistent sleep schedule was not the ideal role model for Nico. Mina herself even admitted it, and would even go as far as to drag herself out of bed early just to show Nico that waking up early was good. It took some time, but Jihyo was eventually able to establish daily and weekly routines for all of them, Nico included. Jihyo had to adjust to the fact Nico insisted on having ten minutes of cuddle time with at least one of them every morning, but it just meant her day had to start ten minutes earlier.

Mina’s depressive episodes usually would throw everything to shit. Mina would refuse to get out of bed, and Jihyo would respect her space, but Sana would get all concerned and try to stay with Mina. Nico would see that only Jihyo was waking her up, and she would get pouty. She wasn’t getting her morning kisses from Sana and wouldn’t get to do her morning routines with each of her moms. Jihyo would sigh, offer to give Nico kisses, and just pray they weren’t going to be late for Nico’s preschool. Eventually, she would get Nico dressed and fed, and then Nico would insist on saying goodbye to Mina and Sana, which would then upset Mina because she hated when Nico saw her like that, and then things would spiral again until someone cried.

Jihyo knew it was a sticky situation all around. She loved and respected Mina, and she did feel bad Nico was so adamant about seeing her every morning, but she also knew that Nico was just trying to get her daily time with all three of her parents in. Nico was a shy kid, and didn’t have many friends at preschool. Her moms were her favorite people, and she just wanted to see them and spend time with them. Plus, given her age, she couldn’t understand why Mina didn’t want to see her.

As Mina’s depressive episodes get longer, Nico stops insisting to see Mina. She even stops asking for Sana’s kisses, just getting ready quietly with Jihyo. Jihyo finds it very unsettling.

“Sorry.” Was the first thing Jihyo found herself muttering that particular morning. She had meant to turn the volume on her alarm down, it had been a late night last night, and while they had an amazing productive talk about their feelings, Jihyo had intended to let Snaa and Mina sleep in. They deserved it after crying their hearts out the night before.

“Jihyo-ya turn it off.” Sana whined, curling into a little ball by Jihyo’s side.

“I am.” Jihyo reached for her phone, quickly swiping the alarm away and checking the time. Jihyo gently moved Sana’s arm off of her, Sana whining as she moved to get up.

“Where are you going?” Sana whined.

“Nico will be up soon, I need to make breakfast.” Jihyo smiled as Sana rolled into her previous space. “I’ll leave you and Mina something.”

“Where are you going? It’s Sunday.”

“I’m going to do some errands. I’ll take Nico with me.” Jihyo muttered, already planning out everything that needed to be done. They were running low on groceries, and the light bulb in the hallway needed replacing, so she would need to stop by the grocery store. Plus, with the cooler weather coming in, Nico would need some new jackets. Given her age, she was growing too rapidly to fit into her clothes from the winter before. So that meant they would need to swing by the department store. Finally, there were a couple loads of laundry that needed to get done, so she aimed to be home before lunch to start on all of it. “Is there anything you want from the grocery store?”

“Mmm… Maybe some yogurt?”

“Of course. Text me if you think of anything else, or if Mina needs anything.” Jihyo kissed Sana’s forehead before moving to the bathroom. Once she brushed her teeth and went through her skin care, she moved to make breakfast. Nico loved eggs, and they had some extra toast lying around from when Tzuyu had come over and made garlic bread, so she decided on a more western style breakfast.

“Mama?” Jihyo was surprised when she turned to see Nico, still in her pajamas. Her hair was messy as she held her favorite stuffed polar bear by its paw.

“Oh Nico.” Jihyo smiled at her daughter. “Good morning. I didn’t expect to see you awake so early.”

“I wanted to see mama.” Nico pouted. She looked adorable, standing in the kitchen half awake. Jihyo didn't allow herself to get distracted though, keeping her attention on the task at hand while her daughter yawned.

“Well hello, why don't you go get your toothbrush and toothpaste and mama can help you while she cooks breakfast?” Nico nodded, running off while Jihyo cracked a couple eggs in the pan. She quickly went through everything they would need from the grocery store again in her head, deciding to get Nico a treat if she was in a cooperative mood today. When Nico returned Jihyo helped her up to the kitchen cabinet and supervised Nico’s teeth brushing, getting her a glass of water to rinse her mouth out with when she was done. Once Nico was settled, she served their breakfast, the two of them eating in realities silence.

“Mama?”

“Hm?”

“Can we go to the park today?” Nico looked so hopeful, her little eyes shining as she looked at Jihyo.

“Let me check the weather,” Jihyo knew she had a lot to get done, but she could move some things around for a quick park trip. “Sorry kiddo, rain all day.” Nico’s face fell at Jihyo’s report, her hand instinctively fidgeting with her polar bear.

“Oh.” Nico stared at the half finished toast in front of her. “Okay.” Jihyo could feel the tension in her daughter. Nico really wasn't having the easiest time, and Jihyo felt guilt tug at her heart as her daughter played with her food.

Ideas ran through Jihyo’s head, playing out any scenario that could possibly improve Nico’s mood. Mina and Sana were out of the question, and obviously anything outside would be out with the weather. Momo and Nayeon were busy, and she was pretty sure Dahyun mentioned them having to do something today. Chaeyoung and Tzuyu were probably out too, considering the fact Tzuyu worked on Sundays and Chaeyoung likely scheduled some clients to fill her free time. Jihyo smiled when an idea came to her, quickly sending a text. She waited until she had a response to turn her attention back to the glum looking toddler in front of her.

“Hey kiddo, why don't you go grab your rain jacket?” Jihyo checked the weather one more time, an idea forming in her mind. “I have a surprise for you.”

“Really?!” Nico immediately looked up from her food, a smile on her face.

“Yeah, let me get a few things and then we can go.”

xx

Jihyo usually wasn't very impulsive.

She really shouldn't be doing what she had planned, there were so many chores that needed to get done at home. Sundays were really the only days she could get chores done, and while Mina and Sana had been doing their best, they had all fallen behind on a few things. However, she would do anything to make Nico smile. And if she had to stay up a bit later that night to finish her to do list, that was okay as long as Nico was happy.

“Mama!” Nico had the biggest grin on her face when Jihyo finally parked. The whole car ride, Nico had been pestering her, asking where they were going and why it was taking so long. When they finally got there however, Nico immediately realized where they were.

“One sec kiddo.” Jihyo laughed, watching how Nico was eagerly unbuckling herself from her car seat. Jihyo moved to help her out, happy to feel the sun on her skin. The rain really had been relentless, but now that they were out of Seoul, the sun was shining brightly.

“Grandpa!” Nico immediately ran to her grandfather when Jihyo opened her door, and Jihyo barely had time to turn around before her daughter was practically mauling her father.

“Nico-ya!”

“Dad, be careful!” Jihyo panicked as her father spun Nico in a circle. “Your back…”

“Jihyo, I’m fine, you worry too much.” The older man laughed. “I've missed you Nico! You’ve gotten so much bigger.”

“Mama said I grew three centimeters!”

“I believe it. You're growing so well.” Jihyo’s father set Nico down. “Why don't you go say hi to Bbuyo? Last I saw, he was near the garden.” Nico nodded, eagerly setting off toward the garden.

“Hi dad, thanks for letting us come out here so last minute” Jihyo smiled when her dad gave her a hug.

“Of course, you are always welcome here.” Her dad looked at her with loving eyes and Jihyo felt like a child under her dad’s gaze. “You look tired.”

“I’m okay.” Jihyo nodded, watching as her daughter looked around for the cat.

“Are Sana and Mina doing okay?” Jihyo took a deep breath, that was a more loaded question than her father probably realized.

“They are doing better.” Jihyo forced herself to smile. She could tell from the look on her father’s face he didn't believe her.

“Well that's good. Tell them I miss them.” Her father smiled. “I was just about to start making some lunch, why don't you help me?”

“Yeah.” Jihyo watched as her daughter finally found her father’s cat, a huge smile on her face as she addressed the animal. “I would love that.”

xx

Jihyo had originally intended the trip to be for her daughter. Nico needed to get out of the house, and she deserved to do something fun. But the longer Jihyo stayed, the more she realized the trip was just as much of a selfish gesture as it was a selfless one.

Her father wasn't super talkative as they made Kimbap together. Just small comments about the task at hand and how adorable Nico looked playing with the cat, who barely seemed interested in her.

“He’s good with her.” Her father smiled as Nico attempted to play fetch with the cat, who was looking at her with his signature annoyed expression.

“He looks annoyed.” Jihyo laughed. “But he isn't trying to scratch her, so that's something.”

“You know he doesn't scratch.”

“He scratched Sana,” Jihyo laughed at the memory. To be fair to the cat, Sana had tried to hug him.

“He would never scratch Nico.” Jihyo’s father nodded. They fell into silence after that. Jihyo made a couple extra rolls of kimbap, wrapping them up to take home with her. Her father always had the best vegetables, and Sana and Mina would be jealous if she didn't share. “Hey Hyo?”

“Hm?”

“Your mom would be really proud of you.” Jihyo feels her entire being freeze at the mention of her mother.

“Dad…” Tears rushed to Jihyo’s eyes at the thought. She didn't normally cry very easily, at least compared to Sana and Mina (who cried at everything), but this topic had that effect on her.

“I'm proud of you too.” Her father grabbed her hand, giving her a gentle squeeze. “You have a good head on your shoulders, and I can tell you love that girl with your whole heart, just like you love Sana and Mina. Just, don't take on too much, okay?” Tears poured down Jihyo’s cheeks as her father looked at her.

“Okay.” Jihyo took a deep breath, trying to stop her tears.

“It's okay to cry Jihyo.” Her father squeezed her hand one more time. “It doesn't make you any less strong. You never want to ask for help, or let people take care of you. But, you can't do everything alone. Let your dad take care of you for a bit, okay?” Jihyo nodded, squeezing her father’s hand back as more tears gathered in her eyes.

“I-I” Jihyo felt choked up as all of the pent up stress and emotions from the past few months rushed to the surface.

“You don't need to tell me, unless you want to.” Jihyo took a deep breath, trying to gather her thoughts as best she could. She couldn't remember the last time she let herself fall apart.

It felt nice to let someone take care of her.

xx

“Are you sure you can't stay the night?” Jihyo smiled as her father looked at the two of them. Nico had fallen asleep hours ago, it was well past her bedtime and Jihyo knew they were already going to get back super late. But she had a class to teach tomorrow, and Nico had day care.

“We’ll come stay for longer next time.” Jihyo had meant to leave after lunch, but she had been swept up into a nap with her daughter when Nico insisted Jihyo lay with her.

“Bring Satang and Mitang with you next time.” Jihyo smiled as she buckled Nico into her car seat.

“I will.” Jihyo nodded. “Speaking of them, Sana says hi.” Sana had texted her when she didn't come home before dinner, concerned something had happened to them. A quick call reassured Sana they were fine, and they would be home later.

“Tell her she needs to come visit soon.” Jihyo’s father answered. “Oh! I almost forgot, take this with you!” Jihyo’s father handed her a large grocery bag. One glance inside showed a bagful of fresh produce and packaged food.

“Dad, you don't have to-”

“You know I have too much. I made some food for you two as well. Take care of yourself okay?” Jihyo’s father opened his arms for a hug, Jihyo easily falling into the hug.

“You too dad.”

“I will.” Jihyo felt like she could cry again in her father’s arms.

“Say hi to mom for me.”

“I will. Be safe driving home okay? Text me when you get there.”

“Okay.” Jihyo sniffled, taking one last look at her father before finally waving, climbing into the car.

Her heart felt so much lighter than when she had woken up that morning.

xx

“Mama.” Jihyo was momentarily surprised when she heard her daughter’s sleepy voice. She didn't allow it to distract her though, keeping her attention on the road in front of her.

“Morning Nico.” Jihyo giggled. “We still have another hour until we are home, you should go back to sleep.”

“I had fun today.” Nico muttered. “Grandpa is always really fun.”

“While I’m glad you think so.” Jihyo giggled. “It would make him really happy to hear that.”

“Was grandma fun too?” Nico had never asked about her grandmother before. They had taken her to visit her grave, but Nico had never really asked about her.

“Yes.” Jihyo muttered. “She would have spoiled you rotten.”

“Do you miss her?”

“Yeah…” Jihyo felt herself grip the steering wheel tighter at her daughter’s question. “I miss her a lot.”

“I miss ka-san.” It was so tiny, Jihyo didn't almost hear it. But Jihyo felt like her heart was breaking at Nico’s admission. “Will she be better soon?”

“Nico…” Jihyo couldn't think of anything to say. Her brain was turning over any possible explanations or reassurances, but anything she tried to say died on her tongue.

Nico falls quiet after that, and when Jihyo glances back at Nico in the rear view mirror, she sees her daughter is fast asleep.

okay so i’ve had three very loose ideas for fics and i really want to get started on writing one of them! so i’m going to write out three really rough synopsis of them and if anyone has any preference, comments, questions, ideas to make something better or anything at all please let me know ! i also want to note side ships/characters are very very underdeveloped so if you have any suggestions for them i’d love to hear them !

option 1 - twice band au (insp. daisy jones & the six) - in 1996 the all female pop-rock band ‘fatal flaw’ took the world by storm. their edgy style, seductive lyrics, and catchy sound made them impossible to ignore. critics thought they’d be a flash in the pan, after all they were just a group of friends who started a band in a garage. but the critics severely underestimated how much appeal a group of six beautiful women with captivating chemistry would have to the masses. their debut album ‘feels so good’ helped them get their name out there. however, their sophomore album ‘insatiable’ is what skyrocketed them to levels of fame they could have never prepared for. the group had the potential to go all the way, become a band that would inspire generations to come. but during their infamous world tour for their third album ‘glory days’ things came to a shocking end. halfway through the tour the band announced their last performance - and what a performance it was. their legacy has long surpassed their actual career. for years fans have wondered what caused the band to break up. and for years the members have wondered if any of it was worth it.

members: jihyo (vocals) jeongyeon (vocals + lead guitar) nayeon (vocals + bass) momo (drums) sana (keyboard) mina (vocals + rhythm guitar) content warnings for the story: drug/alcohol use, smut, profanity, addiction, cheating. (more may be added)

option 2 - misana!vampire x slayer!jihyo au (insp. buffy the vampire slayer x vampire diaries universe) - in every generation there is one human destined to protect the world from vampires, this human is known as they slayer. this generation’s slayer is park jihyo. at the age of fifteen jihyo killed her first vampire and since then her world has never been the same. forced to grow up at a young age, jihyo can hardly remember life before defeating the supernatural and keeping balance in the world. with training and guidance from her mentor, jihyo takes the duties of her role as slayer very seriously. one day she will rid this world of vampires, she just has to figure it out first. 

mina is one of the world’s original vampires. in the early years of civilization, there was a small village in what is now modern day japan that is known to be the origin of the vampires. in a last ditch effort before an invasion, a group of powerful women gathered to sacrifice themselves to the gods to protect their village. mina doesn’t know what made her the way she is now, if it was truly the gods answering their prayers, some sort of witch craft, or some greater evil cursing them. all mina knows is that after the sacrifice she and a three other women had been reborn as creatures the world had never seen before. they gifted (cursed) with powers no being should possess. they were faster and stronger than any human could ever become. their bodies were regenerative, every wound would mend itself in just moments. they were the perfect soldiers and when the time came they defended their village with ease. but their new forms were unpredictable and the blood lust and eternal life were a surprise that cost the villagers their lives. the girls were insatiable and ripped through not only the attackers but their own people. over the years as they honed in their abilities and realized death would not come the original vampires drifted apart. as far as mina knows they’re all still alive-or whatever this state of life was called- and have since created several lineages of vampires that now infest the world. for centuries mina has isolated herself from the world after creating her biggest mistake: sana. now, desperate to find a way to end her life mina seeks out the slayer. mina wants to end her suffering, she’s tired of being alone, unchanging, and reminded of all the atrocities she’s committed. however, no matter how many times she tries to kill herself, nothing will work. on the other side of the world sana gets wind of mina’s plan and is dead set on stopping her. sana was the first person mina ever turned, their love so strong they wanted to spend an eternity in each other’s arms. however, when sana turned her humanity was switched off and she became someting unrecognizable. she has since built one of the strongest vampire clans in the world and can’t lose this empire she’s made. no original has ever died and she fears what may happen if one does... especially when it’s her creator. 

jihyo is skeptical of mina’s intentions since she’s never had a vampire willingly hand themselves over to her. but she quickly realizes mina’s sincerity and agrees to help her with this crazy task. mina would be the first original vampire to ever die.

content warnings: smut, blood, death/murder, violence, profanity, probably alcohol, more tba.

option 3 - 3mix soulmate au (insp. soulmate countdown) - everyone is born with timers on their wrists counting down to 0 until they meet their soulmate. jeongyeon’s went off when she was performing at her first trainee showcase and she heard “finally now i have a same age friend” from the audience. her heart felt like it had stopped for a moment when she met a pair of big sparkly eyes and a bright smile a few rows down. jeongyeon and jihyo have been soulmates for ten years now. with the huge market that kpop is growing into, a sense of closeness and attainability is one of the biggest marketing tactics of the industry. no idol is to disclose their timer to give off the illusion that they could be anyone’s soulmate (though companies say it’s to protect their idol’s privacy). fans flock to fansigns and concerts with dreams of locking eyes with their idol and their timer stopping. others like to fantasize about members of groups having their souls intertwined and ship members as ‘soulmates hidden in plain sight.’ most shippers resent anyone close to their idol in fear they might be connected by fate. as one of the most famous kpop groups, ICON is closely monitored to make sure there is never any slip ups with their timers.

unfortunately all hell breaks loose when dispatch releases a photo showing jeongyeon’s timer: “00:00:00:00″. fans react as expected: shock, anger, resentment, support but most of all fans react with curiosity. in a frenzy fans try to determine who jeongyeon’s soulmate is. it doesn’t take long for several theories to pop up, but one theory seems to have much more traction than the rest: jeongyeon’s soulmate is nayeon. the ship had always been popular among fans as the duo had been close since their trainee days. plus, the had a certain allure with their push-pull dynamic that made fans go crazy. for years fans had theorized about their relationship, only now they were sure they had been right all along. ICON’s company realized the marketing potential of the pair and quickly pulled nayeon and jeongyeon into a meeting. the two would come forward as a couple and they would be able to push the soulmates angle, 10 years of friendship, they’d been through everything together and been in love through it all. despite jeongyeon’s protests and advocating for the truth because jihyo was still a member of the group and after all, it was THEIR story the company was trying to market - the company wasn't going to have it. before the meeting even ended the company already confirmed 2yeon’s relationship to the world despite it being completely fabricated.

members of ICON: jihyo (main vocalist, lead dancer, leader) nayeon (lead vocalist, center, face of the group) jeongyeon (lead vocalist) sana (vocalist, lead dancer, rapper, visual) momo (main rapper, main dancer) content warnings: tba.

There are tears on her cheeks that Jihyo wipes at.

"I don't think so." Sana replies. It's more like a question.

As a response, Jihyo kisses her forehead, smiles, then she's gone.

misahyo update time! if you haven't caught up on this au, i updated the masterlist for this one (here) so please try to read it in the order it was posted in (at least the misahyo stuff)

tw: anxiety, bullying, anxiety in children

Jihyo sighed as she felt her phone vibrate in her pocket again. While she normally tried to be on top of answering her phone, now was absolutely not the time.

“These are our main components of aspects and form when considering sustainable designs, now as you may remember from the assigned reading last night, we have many other considerations in architectural design…” Jihyo willed the persistent buzzing in her pocket. She never really considered herself an overly anxious person, but she could feel her impatience and irritation slowly raising while she lectured. What if her father was hurt? What if Nico had an asthma attack at school? What if Mina was having a bad day? What if Sana was having an anxiety attack? All these thoughts swirled around Jihyo’s mind as she scribbled on the board. Truthfully, lecturing to a class of thirty completely checked out students was about the last place she wanted to be. But, this was her job. And she had to stay on track with her lesson plans.

She just wished the time would go by faster.

Eventually, the buzzing stopped. At first Jihyo was relieved, but that quickly turned to stress as her thoughts got increasingly darker. What if Nico was in the hospital? Her asthma could be quite severe, especially when she was sick. What if her dad was in the hospital? He had no one else to look out for him, and being more than an hour drive away meant that Jihyo wasn’t able to check in on him as much as she would like. What if Mina was pushed to a breaking point? What if Sana was?

Jihyo just wished the words would come out faster, and wished the time would tick by faster. She just wished to be out in the hallway, lecture done for the day, and checking her caller id for whoever was blowing up her phone with calls.

She holds it together through the rest of her lecture, answering questions as best, and as quickly, as she could. The minute Jihyo answers the last question, she starts gathering her stuff. She immediately grabs her phone out of her pocket, and her heart sinks when she notices the calls have all been from Nico’s school. The thought of Nico getting sick, or hurt, or worse just made her feel even worse. Thankfully, she didn’t have any panicked texts from Mina or Sana, but considering they also had classes at the moment, she expected they also hadn’t had the chance to check their phones.

As she’s processing her call history, another call comes through. She immediately answers it, her anxiety peaking as the line connects.

“Hello?”

“Hi, is this Mrs. Park Jihyo?”

“Yes.”

“Hi, I’m Lee Seungmin from Sunshine preschool, and I’m calling about an incident your daughter Nico was involved in today.” Nico wasn’t normally the type to act out, so Jihyo was confused at the call. “We would like for you or another parent or guardian to come by as soon as possible to come speak about her behavior and to come pick her up.”

“I can come now, but it should take me about twenty minutes to get there.” Jihyo checked her watch. It was almost one in the afternoon, which meant she had another two hours before her next class. She could cancel it, but she did worry about keeping to the course schedule.

“Okay, perfect. Could you also possibly bring Nico a change of clothes?” Jihyo became even more confused with the question, but given Nico’s age, she chalked it up to a simple spill or mess. Thankfully, she kept a spare outfit for Nico in her car. It had come in handy more than once, and keeping extra clothes around was one of those parenting tips she refused to thank Nayeon for.

“Sure. Talk to you later.” After a pleasant greeting from the other end, Jihyo settled her stuff and set out. It was a bit of a hike to get back to her car, and her mind spent the entire time coming up with possible reasons Nico would be in trouble. While normally a little angel, Nico could get quite grumpy when she was woken up too early in the morning or from a nap. She could also get a little grumpy when she wasn’t allowed to play outside. She could also be a bit antisocial if Jihyo was honest. Her teacher had expressed concern over Nico multiple times, saying she was struggling to form friendships in her class, and that she was quite shy for her age. But, Jihyo’s dad told her that her teachers said the same thing about her at Nico’s age, so she tried not to worry about it too much.

The entire drive to Nico’s school, Jihyo thinks about all the scenarios Nico could have gotten herself into. Nico seemed normal that morning, so that ruled out the sick possibility. Nico had never gotten into any fights before, but Jihyo supposed there was a first time for everything. It could be another child's fault, and Nico could have just gotten caught in the crossfire. Jihyo really hoped that was the case.

When she got there, Jihyo's finds anxiety weighing heavier on her than usual. She always tried to be the calm one in these kinds of situations, tried to be the one Mina and Sana could rely on. But truthfully, she was just happy they weren't here to see her at the moment. She was barely holding herself together, and that was a terrifying feeling.

Jihyo gets quickly ushered into Nico’s classroom the minute she gets there. Nico’s teacher is there, but her daughter, and all the other kids for that matter, are suspiciously absent.

“Hello Mrs. Park, please take a seat.” Jihyo nodded at the instruction, sitting at the only other adult sized chair in the room. “I’m sorry to have to call you like this, but unfortunately, there was a bit of an, incident, today.”

“An incident?”

“Well… It all started when Minji took Nico’s stuffed polar bear she brings from home during playtime.” Jihyo immediately knows this story is not going to have a good ending. “And well, Nico did not take kindly to that. So she asked for it back, and when Minji said no, she tried to take it back. I was dealing with another student at the time, so I didn't notice it until it had already escalated a bit, but they got into a bit of a physical altercation. I could tell Nico wasn't the aggressor, well at least she was being less violent than Minji, but she was trying to fight back and she did push Minji to the ground. This led to Minji retaliating and she got a pretty good scratch before I could separate the two of them. After, I had a talk with both girls to see what happened and while I was talking to the office about calling their parents, Nico somehow ended up in the little pool of water we set out for the demo one of the teachers was going to do for the kids today.” Well, at least that explained the extra clothes. “Anyway, I wasn't personally there to witness what happened, and Minji said she didn't do it. Nico didn't say anything either, but she’s been quiet since the incident earlier.”

“Thank you for letting me know. I’m sorry she acted that way, she’s never done anything like that before.”

“I tried to explain to her that pushing people wasn't nice, and if someone was doing something she didn't like it was best to ask an adult for help, but I think in this particular case, Nico just felt cornered.”

“What do you mean?”

“Well Minji has always been a bit… Mean to Nico.” Oh no, Jihyo thinks, did her three and a half year old already have a bully? “It's never been physical before, and I’ve tried to step in when I see it happening, but I’m not watching every single child all the time, so there could be incidents that happen behind my back.”

“Wow okay, she's never mentioned anything about it at home.” Jihyo sighed.

“It's been a somewhat recent shift. Minji is fairly new to the school.” The teacher explained. “I have talked with her one on one about being mean to Nico, but she had never done anything. to warrant parent involvement until today. Even then, the school's policy states that any child that hurts another must be disciplined. And since Nico pushed Minji…”

“Yeah, I understand.” Jihyo sighed. “So I need to take her home?”

“Yes, that's the policy. She can return tomorrow, but please bring her in a little early so I can have a discussion with her and Minji about today.”

“Sure.” Jihyo nodded.

“I would like to talk to her with your present a little bit before you leave. I had her wait in the hallway, all the other kids are at recess at the current moment. Let me go get her.”

“Of course.”

Jihyo was not prepared for how absolutely wrecked Nico appeared when the teacher brought her in. Her clothes were soaked, and she had a little towel wrapped around herself to keep her from dripping all over the ground. Her arm had a large bandage around it, and she refused to even look at Jihyo. Once the teacher sat her down next to Jihyo, Nico buried her face in her towel, absolutely refusing to look up at either adult.

“Nico, can you please tell your mama what you did today?”

“Was bad.” Nico muttered it so quietly, Jihyo was surprised she was able to hear it. Her teacher certainly didn't.

“Nico, can you please look at adults when they are talking to you?” Nico nodded, burying herself further into her towel. Jihyo wasn't sure if it was her mom senses, or just a general understanding of how people act when they are upset, but she was immediately alarmed with Nico’s behavior. Nico had never acted like that, even when she was mad or upset, she never refused to look at them. “Nico…”

“Hey buddy.” Jihyo rested one hand on Nico’s back, whispering to her daughter. Nico was trembling under her hand. Jihyo felt the alarm bells get even louder. “Nico, sweetie, it's okay. We just want to talk.” Nico’s shaking got worse, and Jihyo could hear barely contained sobs from her daughter. “I think it's best if I take her home right now.” Jihyo addressed Nico’s teacher, who seemed to have noticed Nico’s distress.

“Yes, I… Do think that's a good idea.” The teacher nodded. “Nico, we can talk tomorrow.” Nico stayed in her little cocoon while Jihyo went to collect her stuff. Once she had Nico’s belongings, she addressed her daughter.

“Nico, it's time to go home.”

“Don't wanna.” Nico mumbled.

“You don't want to?”

“M’ gonna be in trouble.”

“Well maybe a little bit, but not until you are feeling a little bit better.” Jihyo knew she could just pick Nico up and carry her home, but she was scared that would cause Nico to get even worse. “Right now, I promise you won't be in trouble.” Nico didn't say anything, but opened herself up enough to take Jihyo's hand. Jihyo led her first to the bathroom, changing Nico out of her wet clothes as quickly as possible. She left the towel with the other dirty ones, and when she turned back to Nico she had pulled her sweater over her face. Jihyo didn't say anything more, taking Nico’s hand again and guiding her out of the school. Once they are in the car, Nico curls into her car seat, her sweater still on her face as Jihyo starts off home.

Truthfully, she has no idea how to handle this. Nico being unresponsive was new, and she seemed genuinely terrified of something. Whether that was punishment, or her parents, or Minji, Jihyo wasn't sure.

What she was sure of was that something was very very wrong.

When she gets home, Sana and Mina’s cars are both there. She's surprised to say the least, but she guessed they had also gotten calls from Nico’s school.

“Alright buddy, we're home.” Jihyo unbuckled Nico as best she could, gently picking her up to carry her inside. Nico didn't seem angry about it, but she didn't say anything to Jihyo as she carried her inside.

Mina and Sana are both on the couch, worry spelled across their faces. It only intensifies when they see Jihyo.

“Nico?” Sana ran up to them the minute she spotted them. Jihyo could tell she also sensed something was wrong. Mina was right behind her, her beautiful face marred with worry and dark circles. “What happened? Is she hurt? Why is there a bandage on her arm?”

Nico started shaking again as Sana talked. Jihyo’s heart sinks when she realizes they are at least a partial cause in Nico’s distress.

“She’s going to be okay. There was a little incident at school today.” Jihyo made a mental note to explain the situation more later, when Nico wasn't shaking in her arms. “Nico, you aren't in trouble. You can come out now.”

“No!” Nico buried herself further in her sweater.

“Sweetie, are you scared we are going to be mad at you? Cause we’re not, I promise.” Sana gently rubbed Nico’s arm.

“Nico, we just want to help you feel better.” Jihyo added to Sana’s comment.

“I was a bad girl.” Nico muttered. “I was bad and now mommy mama and ka-san and going to get rid of me.”

“What?” Jihyo feels her heart shatter at Nico’s statement. She absolutely never wanted Nico to feel unwanted, and the fact it was coming from them made it even worse. She watched Sana’s face fall, and she could feel Mina tense next to her. “Nico, we are never going to get rid of you.”

“Yes you are.” Nico muttered. “Mommy, mama, and ka-san have a lot, Auntie Momo told me that you guys are busy and I have to be good, and I wasn’t good. I was bad. So I have to go away.” Nico cried. Jihyo heard her breathing get shallower, and immediately handed Nico’s backpack hanging on her arm to Mina. Mina immediately understood, digging into Nico’s backpack for her inhaler.

“Nico, please take a deep breath. We are not going to get rid of you.” Jihyo gently pulled on Nico’s sweater, trying to get her to pop her head out so she could get more air, but Nico resisted.

“Nico please, just look at us.” Sana rested one hand on Nico’s arm, just trying to comfort her. “We would never get rid of you.” Sana’s tone was extremely serious. Jihyo rarely heard her wife that serious, and she was sure Nico wasn't used to it either.

“Even when I’m bad.”

“Yes Nico, even when you are bad.” Jihyo responded.

“We’ve never even thought about it.” Mina added, holding Nico’s inhaler in one hand, tensing when Nico started coughing. When Jihyo tried to pull Nico’s sweater down a second time, she didn't resist. Her face was a mess of tears, and her breathing was shallow, but Jihyo, and she suspected her wives as well, poured all of their love towards Nico.

“We will never ever in one million years get rid of you.” Sana whispered, gently kissing Nico’s forehead. “We love you so much, we will always, always be here for you.”

“Take some deep breaths okay?” Jihyo whispered as Mina moved closer, Nico’s inhaler in one hand. Nico struggled with her breath, tears trickling down her cheeks. Mina moved Nico’s inhaler closer, and the little girl immediately opened her mouth.

“In.” Mina whispered. Nico did as instructed as Mina used her inhaler. None of them could speak as Nico slowly got a better grip on her breathing. Jihyo didn’t know what to say, what to do. All she really felt like was a failure. As a parent, her main job was making sure Nico was safe, healthy, and knew how loved she was. Jihyo felt like she had failed at that. Here her daughter was, panicking that they were going to get rid of her over some minor dispute.

They were all silent as Nico slowly became even again. Jihyo moved them all over to the couch, rubbing a hand on Nico’s back as she slowly calmed down. Once Nico was calm, she laid against Jihyo, utter exhaustion written all over her face.

“Baby, I know your tired, but we just want to know so we can tell them how wrong they were, who told you we would get rid of you?” Sana whispered as she gently drew circles on Nico’s back.

“Minji was telling us that her brother was bad, so her parents had to get rid of him. And she told me that if I was bad, mommy, mama, and ka-san would want to get rid of me too.” Nico explained. “And since mommy, mama, and ka-san are busy, they don't have time to punish me so they are gonna get rid of me if I’m bad.”

“Oh baby.” Sana had a heartbroken look on her face as she tried to comfort Nico. Jihyo felt just about the same. “We are never ever going to be too busy for you. And we would never want to get rid of you.”

“Never ever?”

“Never ever.” Sana confirmed. Nico nodded, seemingly comforted by the reassurance and she settled into Jihyo’s arm. “Why don't you take a little nap, and we can have katsu curry when you wake up.” Nico nodded, her head resting against Jihyo’s shoulder as her eyes closed. It wasn't long until she was asleep, and Jihyo carefully carried her to her bed. Once Nico was settled into bed, Jihyo gave her a kiss to the forehead before leaving to go talk to her wives.

“That was rough.” Sana was the first one to speak up, her head curled into Jihyo’s side as Jihyo wrapped one of her arms around Sana and the other around Mina.

“Your telling me.” Jihyo muttered.

“I-I had no idea she felt like that.” Mina muttered. “Did we do something wrong to make her feel that way.” Jihyo knew Mina well enough to know the unspoken follow up question to that. Did I do something wrong?

“No, I think this Minji girl was the one who got the idea into her head.” Jihyo reassured.

“It does expose some greater issues though…” Sana trailed off. “Well, first, I think we need to take Nico to a therapist. Her reaction was, rough to say the least. It was like she was terrified of us. And while she's always been a sweet girl, I think she has a fear of punishment in general, like worse than most kids. The second is, we need to spend more time with her. Maybe she would have told us about Minji before if we had been around her more often.” That is easier said than done Jihyo internally added to Sana’s statement. She had spent plenty of time with Nico, and she had never mentioned Minji. But, then spending more time with their child was always going to be a good thing. She just hoped Mina and Sana don't start forcing themselves to spend time with Nico when they aren't emotionally ready.

“I do agree about the therapy.” Jihyo left her thought about spending time with Nico out for the time being. Her feelings were too complicated to talk about that at the current moment. “I can ask Nayeon Unnie who they sent the twins and Zumi to. I know they had a lot of success, especially with Jae. I know they were all around Nico’s age when they started.”

“Sounds good.” Sana cuddled closer to Nico. “And Mitang?” Mina looked at Sana at the question. “You did absolutely nothing wrong. Do not blame yourself for this.” Sana spoke before Jihyo could, and all she did was gently squeeze Mina to show her agreement. Tears came to Mina’s eyes as she cuddled closer to Jihyo. “Thank you…” Mina muttered.

“We love you Mitang.” Sana kissed Mina’s hand, holding it across Jihyo’s stomach.

“I love you too Satang, Hyo.” Jihyo smiled, kissing Mina’s head before Sana whined. Jihyo tried to give her the same, but Sana jerked her head up for a kiss on the lips, though it landed more on her cheek. Sana giggled, before moving for a proper kiss. Jihyo pulled away before she could get her tongue in.

“Hornball.” Jihyo teased. “Nico could wake up at any minute and here you are, trying to slip some tongue into an innocent kiss.”

“Guilty as charged.” Sana had a devilish grin on her face. “You know I can't help myself when you are all dressed up for work.”

“Well, save your horiness for later.” Jihyo gently pinched Sana’s nose, causing Mina to erupt into laughs beside her at the interaction. “We have a special dinner to make for a special girl.”

“Boo, you know I’m banned from the kitchen.” Sana poured. “Mitang you want to come upstairs to help me grab… Something?”

“Nope. Not falling for that one.” Mina grinned at Sana, giggling even more as Sana’s kisses started trailing up her arm. “Hey, come on. I’ll temporarily lift your kitchen ban.”

“Really?” Sana asked excitedly. “I get to help Mitang and HyoHyo cook?”

“As long as you don't call me HyoHyo.” Jihyo muttered. “Come on, we have to hurry if we want to be done by the time she gets up.”

xx

After a nice dinner, and a long night of reassuring Nico how loved she was, Jihyo finds herself alone on the balcony. For all Sana’s bravado earlier, she fell asleep quite quickly after Nico is asleep. Mina wasn't far behind her, and while Jihyo had laid with them as they fell asleep, she found herself unable to join them. It was already late, almost midnight as she sat on the freezing cold balcony bundled in her parka, but looking at the night sky was calming her mind, at least a little bit. She was also calmed by the single can of beer she had brought with. She wasn't one for drinking her sorrows away, but she did enjoy a nice drink from time to time.

Jihyo knew the alcohol was the only chance she had at getting to sleep.

She honestly wasn't sure what possessed her to pick up her phone, but she finds herself holding her phone to her ear while the other line rings. She can feel her nerves building, and half of her is tempted to hang up before the other had a chance to answer, but instead she found herself stuck listening to the ringing sound.

Just as she was about to give up, the line connected.

“Jihyo?” Nayeon's voice was quiet, Jihyo’s guessing she was in bed already. “What could possibly need right now?”

“Hey Unnie, could we possibly meet up tomorrow, to… Talk?” Jihyo tried to convey the seriousness of her tone. Nayeon would understand her. She knew she would.

“Is something wrong?” Nayeon’s voice took on a concerned tone. “Do you need me to come over now?”

“No.” Jihyo sighed. “No, we can do this tomorrow with Jeongyeon Unnie.”

“Okay.” Nayeon seemed reassuring. “Yeah, how about lunch tomorrow? I’ll get Jeongyeon to come.”

“Sounds great.” Jihyo nodded. “I’ll see you then?”

“See you.” As the line disconnected, Jihyo stared at the night sky. She had no idea how much longer they could all last like this, but it seemed like the cracks were already starting to show.

Hi!

Did you see the GQ interview where they said Mina should star in a horror movie, with Nayeon saying that the twist is that Mina is the killer? I think Twice would be all for your ghostface au, too!

Your Twice band au reminds me of Fleetwood Mac and all the behind the scenes drama they went through making the masterpiece that is Rumours. As a Fleetwood Mac fan, I'm all for this idea!

But...I'm an even bigger Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan, so option 2 is it for me. So...would Jihyo and Mina go down the Buffy and Angel path of falling in love? Is Sana solely interested in stopping Jihyo from killing Mina to save her empire and herself, or is there some love still there for Mina (you said her love took a backseat, not that it went away entirely)? Could there be a juicy love triangle? Haha. All I know is that Sana sounds scary as hell. Would Jihyo have a Scooby Gang to support her? I hope so, I don't like the idea of her only having a Watcher and having no other support system. :( I could definitely see Nayeon and Jeongyeon as Cordelia and Xander. Bickering all the time but that sexual tension is lingering under the surface.

You have so many great story ideas that I don't think you could go wrong with any of your options.

-😱

omg i literally saw that the other day! i love that twice are accidentally pushing my ghostface!minayeon agenda. nayeon was actually just trying to spoil the fact i’m directing the next scream movie where i hire mina to be ghostface.

daisy jones & the six was actually based off of fleetwood mac so technically so is the band au! since you’re a fleetwood mac fan i 1000% recommend you check out daisy jones & the six. the show is pretty good if you haven’t read the book. but i would suggest you listen to the audiobook, it’s relatively short but god it’s soooooo good. it’s about a band from the 70′s who becomes super successful and then splits up after their tour and for 40 years they don’t speak about the group until someone makes a documentary. there’s a lot of drama, sexual tension, and drugs. it’s super fun! plus the characters are *chefs kiss*. like i really can’t recommend this story enough!

i love buffy too! it’s such a phenomenal show, i just re-watched it not too long ago and thought it would be cool to make a crossover with the vampire diaries universe. hence, this fic idea! you might be onto a few things *cough* love triangle *cough* i’m really considering writing this since people seem to be on board with the idea! i’m not sure how much i should give away right now. in case some people want the direction of the story and the characters motivations and stuff to be a surprise! so what i will say is humanity is unpredictable and love can make people do a lot of things :) i was contemplating adding a little slayer gang to the mix! since she started her journey as the slayer so young, she didn’t really have too much time to make friends or get to be a normal teen. plus, with her always being thrown into dangerous situations it would be hard to have friends. knowing that your presence will attract danger to them no matter how hard you try to protect them from it. but it really would be cruel to make her go through the motions (get it?? i made myself giggle) of being a slayer by herself. so maybe the watcher recruits some novice vampire hunters (aka 2yeon) to help them out. 

and thank you so much!! i appreciate that you think so  😭 these are like several ideas i’ve come up with over the years but i’ve never actually gotten around to writing since i’m not a very strong writer. but i’m trying to develop my writing skills so hopefully this will help and these stories turn out decent!

“Hey.” Sana barely even looked up when she heard Momo’s voice. She really should be more concerned about how she has no memory of Momo coming over, but she was so used to Momo in her life she didn’t bother pulling her attention away from the drawer she was intently staring at. “What are you doing?” “Huh?” Sana broke out of her trance to look at Momo.

“Oh nothing.” Sana nodded quickly, another wave of nausea hitting her as she thought about what she had just shoved in the drawer. “What are you doing here?” “A friend can’t have a friendly visit?” Momo joked. “No, I just… Wanted to see how you were doing.” “You know Mina is making dinner don’t you?” “No!” Momo protested, her face relaxing when Sana glared at her. “Fine. Nico told me Mina was making Katsu Curry and the kids and Nayeon are all out, so I’m going a bit crazy.” “Nico told you?” “When I picked her up from school?” Momo filled in. “Did you forget about that?” “Oh right, right.” Sana nodded quickly, trying desperately to calm her heart rate. “Anyway, Mina isn’t even home yet.” “I know. I texted her to let her know I would be here, to make sure there was enough food you know? Anyway, that somehow turned into her convincing me to do ingredient prep for her.” Momo sighed. “Wasn’t expecting to see you waging a war with one of your drawers.” “I told you, it’s nothing. It’s just a drawer.” Sana rolled her eyes. “If you say so.” Momo giggled, moving to the kitchen and quickly tying her hair back. Sana moved to sit down at the breakfast bar attached to the kitchen, her brain still somewhat focused on the content of their “mail” drawer. It wasn’t officially a mailbox, far from it. But anytime they had mail, it had a way of ending up there.  “What are you thinking about kiddo?” “You are one month older than me.” Sana rolled her eyes. “And what’s your point?” Momo joked, taking out some vegetables from the fridge.

“Nothing.” Sana sighed. “I know you called me that when we were little and I was smaller than you, but I’m taller now.”

“A fact I refuse to accept.” Momo moved to get out a cutting board as well as some bowls and all Sana could do was stare in awe, the fact Momo might know her kitchen better than her was honestly terrifying. “Seriously, did anything happen?”

“No.” Sana could almost see how much Momo refused to take her lie. “It’s really fine.”

“Well then, why don’t you make yourself useful?”

“I’m banned from the kitchen.”

“I’ll supervise.” Momo giggled. “Come on, we are making your family dinner.”

“Fine, fine.” Sana rolled her eyes, but still moved to help her longest friend. Truthfully, she just hoped it helped keep her mind off of the drawer.

[onceuponaloonatic]

Mina had to say, she did miss being around her daughter. Having Nico on her lap was always nice, but playing video games with Nico in her lap? That was the best. Mina loved that even at Nico’s young age, she liked to sit and observe while Mina played video games. She was always careful to pick age appropriate games with her, but Mina didn't play too many games she didn't want her daughter to know about. Kids, especially toddlers, were like sponges, absorbing everything around them and copying everything. Nico was no different, and she had gained Mina’s love for video games. Either that, or she just loved the animals in the games Mina played. She wasn't entirely sure, but whatever it was, she knew she was able to capture Nico’s precious attention when they played games together.

“Ka-san! There's a pig!” Nico pointed to the corner of the screen, Mina smiling and moving towards it. When she played minecraft around Nico, she tended to not kill the animals and instead go for farming. She knew Nico could be a little sensitive, which was partially her fault she will admit, and so she didn't want to upset her. “Hi Pig-san.” Nico waved at the tv screen. Mina used to mainly be a pc gamer, but with the fact Nico liked the tv and the fact the switch was just more convenient, Mina opted to play the switch version of a lot of games.

“Hello.” Mina giggled as Nico waved. “Should we have Pig-san join our farm?”

“Yeah!” Nico nodded eagerly, wiggling around in Mina’s lap. Mina smiled in response. She may have some things she was still working on, and those things might take her away from Nico all over again, but having moments like this with her little girl would always be infinitely better than being in bed.

xx

“What are you doing?” Jihyo giggled as she watched Sana stare at the living room. She kissed Sana’s cheek while her wife stared.

“Observing.” Sana answered, taking a bite out of the cookies Jihyo and Nico had made last week.

“Observing what?” Jihyo laughed.

“That adorable scene.” Sana pointed to Nico on Mina’s lap as the woman played Mario Kart. Nico was cheering “Ka-san!” over and over while Mina aggressively played.

“Oh that is adorable.” Jihyo couldn't stop herself from getting her phone out of her pocket and taking a picture. “We have the cutest girls, don't we?”

“We do.” Sana pulled Jihyo into a kiss. “Almost feel bed to announce bedtime.”

“She can stay up a little late.” Jihyo smiled. “She’s earned it.”

“True.” Sana smiled as Nico loudly cheered. She guess Mina won, from the smile on both of their faces.

“Mommy! Mama!” Nico excitedly waved towards both of them. “Ka-san won!”

“Did she?” Sana smiled at Nico, who nodded excitedly as Mina pulled her into a hug. “Good job babe.”

“Thank you.” Mina smiled. “You two want to play? Loser has to do the dishes?”

“Oh your on Myoui.” Jihyo smirked, letting go of Sana and moving to sit next to Mina on the couch.

“I’m down.” Sana knew she was going to lose. Her wives dominated at mario kart and Sana still didn't quite remember what buttons did what. But, she wouldn't dare miss out on quality time with her wives. It was both of their love languages after all, and even if she sucked she wanted to experience it with them.

“Nico can you be mama’s good luck charm this time?”

“But Ka-san gave me jellies…” Nico trailed off.

“If I win, I’ll give you more jellies.”

“Okay!” Nico immediately climbed into Jihyo's lap, cuddling up to her mama. Jihyo’s could feel Mina’s glare on her as Sana grabbed them two extra joy cons and put Mina’s switch in the doc.

“Tratior.” Mina scoffed.

“All is fair in love and mario kart my love.” Jihyo giggled as Mina started up the loading screen.

Needless to say, Sana got stuck with the dishes. They stopped playing when Nico was practically falling asleep in Jihyo’s lap, and that was when they noticed how late it was. Mina, the proper victor of mario kart for the night, got to take Nico to bed and give her a goodnight kiss. Jihyo stayed and played a couple round of mario kart by herself to keep Sana company while she did the dishes.

“Babe you know Mina is like, a god at that game.” Sana rolled her eyes as she heard Jihyo playing.

“I’ve beaten her before. I just need more practice.” Jihyo answered.

“Okay, but don't let practice time cut into Wife time. Mina deserves her reward, for winning.” Jihyo blushed at Sana’s statement as she finished her race.

“Only one more.” Jihyo pouted.

“Okay, well I’ll be upstairs with my wife having fun. You welcome to join us when your practice time is over.” Sana kissed Jihyo’s cheek before leaving her in the living room. Once Jihyo’s game was over, she practically sprinted up the stairs, making one quick stop to make sure her baby girl was fast asleep and to give her a little kiss.

“Mama?” Jihyo mentally cursed herself for waking Nico up.

“What is it?” Jihyo asked.

“Can I beat Ka-san at Mario one day?” Jihyo giggled, adjusting Nico’s covers and turning her star lamp back on.

“Of course.” Jihyo kissed her cheek. “But you need to get some rest first okay?”

“Mm.” Nico nodded, her eyes slipping shut again.

“I love you. Sweet dreams.” Nico didn't answer, already fast asleep as Jihyo snuck out of her room. She couldn't help the mounting excitement as she walked towards her bedroom. Rewards were always the best in their partnership, even if she wasn't the one receiving them.

[onceuponaloonatic]

part one because i wanted to post something before i fell asleep❤️

Jihyo smiled as she felt her daughter close her eyes. It wasn’t normal for it to just be her and Sana with Nico, but Mina was off at a conference for educators in literature and as much as Sana and Jihyo wanted to go and be proud of their wife for being a speaker at a big fancy conference, they had to take care of Nico. “It’s a little weird without Mina huh?” Sana giggled. Since they all worked at the same place, they typically had breaks at the same time every year. Because of that, it was rare for them to spend time apart from each other, especially late at night. “It is.” Jihyo smiled, adjusting Nico on her lap. “She seems like she’s having fun though.” “She does.” Sana smiled, swirling the wine around in her glass. “Since it’s just us though, shouldn’t we talk about her gift.” “Oh right. Her birthday.” Jihyo nodded, rubbing one hand on Nico’s back. “Do you think this is the year we do the thing?” “What-oh.” Sana giggled. “Do we have enough?” “I checked the other day, we have more than enough at this point.” Jihyo smiled. “This does seem like a good year for it. Her birthday is over spring break this year.” Sana nodded. “Plus, we all could deserve a break after the year we’ve had.” “I could not agree more.” Jihyo held Nico closer to herself in one arm as she took another sip of wine. “Nico, baby don’t you think it’s time to go to bed?” “Mm…” Nico answered. “Mama.” Nico was very clingy, just like her mom. There were phases where she almost refused to be put down. It was especially pronounced in the morning and right before Nico went to sleep. Every morning, they had a routine down. Whoever’s turn it was to wake up Nico had to get up ten minutes earlier than normal, and had to spend the first five minutes holding Nico. Sana would hold Nico close and rain kisses on her while Nico snuggled closer to her. Jihyo usually would go through her emails while she held Nico, one arm around her daughter as Nico snuggled with her. Mina on the other hand would just rest her head on Nico’s, both of them half awake as they cuddled and slowly woke up. “Mama will be here when you wake up my clingy girl.” Sana giggled, leaning over to kiss Nico’s head. “Let’s get you to bed.” Nico didn’t answer as she cuddled closer to Jihyo. “Okay, five more minutes.”

“She’s okay right here.” Jihyo smiled. “How about we look into our wife’s gift?” “That sounds like a great idea.” xx 

Mina smiled as she felt three kisses placed on her. She had just gotten home, and she was more than happy to be back. She liked spending some time by herself, but family time was always nice. She had missed them, and the immediate kisses she got were welcomed.

“What’s all this?” Mina giggled, picking up Nico after she tugged on her pants. “Welcome home.” Sana smiled. “We have a gift for you.” “A gift?” “Ka-san.” Mina adjusted Nico as her daughter handed her a gift. “Did you get me a gift?” Mina giggled. “It’s from me and mommy and mama.” Sana and Jihyo giggled at Nico’s comment, knowing their daughter had no idea what was even in the box. “We know it’s still a little bit before your birthday, but think of this like an early present.” “An early present?” Mina eyed them suspiciously. “You will need it before your actual birthday.” Sana explained. “Nico baby come here, ka-san needs to open her present.” Nico nodded, hopping down and running to Sana’s arms. Mina set her purse down before looking at the small box. She eyed Sana and then Jihyo, before opening the small box. “A key?” Mina asked. Of all the things it could be, a key was the last thing she thought it could be. “Let’s just say this gift is a little far away.” Both Jihyo and Sana giggled at the look on Mina’s face. Adorably confused. “You’ll find out next week.” “Come on.” Mina whined. “What is it?” “A secret.” Jihyo smiled. “Nico?” Mina turned to her daughter. “Do you know what it is?” Nico nodded, puffing her cheeks up like there was a bubble in it. “You aren’t going to tell me either?” Nico giggled as Mina tickled her, nodding her head no as she was swept up into Mina’s arms. 

“Trust us babe, it will be better as a surprise.”

hey guys i know it's been a while sorry! finals are coming up soon :( anyway thanks for putting up with my very random update schedule. i've been thinking about misahyo au a lot so there may be a rush of content for that ah. sorry i know you all love surrogate au. i will try my best to do both!anyway major tws for this so please read the tws.

tw: past child abuse, panic attacks, fear, ptsd, etc...

Nico was a sweet girl. Sana, Mina, and Jihyo had always thought so and they knew they could not have asked for a better kid. Nico didn’t cause a ruckus very often, she didn’t scream very much, and usually she would do what her parents said. Usually.

Nico getting an ear infection had not been fun for any of them. She woke them up crying at two am because she was in pain and she had a fever and after a quick doctor’s visit they got the prescribed medicine Nico needed to treat her infection. Since she was still running a low grade fever and she hadn’t slept very much, they decided to keep her out of school the next day. Given the fact Sana only had one class, she was the one who volunteered to stay home with Nico. The whole morning, Nico had been good. The doctor put ear drops in her ear before she left and they seemed to be helping ease her pain. Her fever was also steadily declining and by lunch she wasn’t even running one anymore. It was after lunch things got complicated. They had just sat down to watch a movie before Nico burst out crying.

“What is it baby?” Sana asked, pausing the movie and turning to her daughter.

“Hurts.” Nico tugged on her ear and Sana quickly moved to swat her hands away.

“I know. Don’t touch it sweetheart, it’ll make it worse.” Sana sighed, moving to grab the ear drops she had left on the table in preparation for the ear drops wearing off. “We can put some more drops in, okay?”

“They hurt.” Nico pouted.

“But they make you feel better.” Sana explained. “If you lay down, it will be a little easier for me to put them in.”

“Don't wanna.” Nico nodded, scooting away from Sana on the couch. “It hurts.”

“I know, but sweetie, you need to. It will make the pain stop.” Nico seemed unconvinced, staring at the ear drops apprehensively. “I’ll give you a cookie if you let me put the drops in.”

“Two cookies.” Nico argued.

“One cookie now and one cookie after dinner. Deal?” Nico nodded, laying her head in Sana’s lap, her bright red ear facing Sana. Sana took a deep breath and put the drops over Nico’s ear. Nico visibly tensed and Sana could feel the tears dripping onto her lap. “I know sweetie. I’m almost done. You're being so brave for mommy.” As Sana put the first drop in, Nico screamed in pain. Sana sighed, knowing she had five more to go. Sana really wished they had given them a bigger dropper so Nico didn't need six little drops. When Sana did the second one, Nico decided she was done.

“No more.”

“I’m sorry baby you know we have to.” Sana sighed, putting in a third drop.

“Mommy stop!” Nico wailed as the third drop entered her ear. She thrashed around in her lap and knocked the ear drops out of Sana’s hand, her hands going to cradle her ear while tears rolled down her cheeks. Sana felt her entire body tense at the response. Her heart rate increased as she no longer felt like she was on the couch in her house with her daughter. Instead, she was back at her parents house.

Sana tensed as she remembered herself yelling at her mother to stop hurting her. Her mother never listened, and Sana could feel the burning pain from scars she had thought faded years ago. She felt fear fill her bloodstream and she felt like everything was spinning. Tears clung to Sana’s eyes as her brain repeated the events of the first time her mom hit her. She couldn't even feel Nico on her lap anymore. She couldn't hear her sobbing. All Sana could perceive was her screaming thoughts and the pain echoing throughout her whole body-

“Hey Sana, it's okay.” Sana blinked when she heard Jihyo’s voice. She hadn't even heard the front door open, she didn't even know Jihyo was coming home early. “Baby, it's okay. You're here, at home with Nico and me. You're safe.” Sana ellet out a shaky exhale as everything came back into focus. Jihyo was holding Nico, who was clinging to her like a koala while Jihyo stroked her hair with one hand and silently offered Sana the other one. “Hi.”

“Hi.” Sana could feel the headache coming on from the rush of emotions. “S-Sorry.” Sana took Jihyo’s hand, and Jihyo gave her a gentle squeeze.

“Do not apologize. It is not your fault.” Jihyo nodded, bringing Sana’s hand to her mouth and giving her a small kiss. “Do you want a second? I can take her in the other room.”

“No! Uh no. Please stay.” Sana begged.

“Oh of course baby.” Jihyo squeezed Sana’s hand again. Sana gulped and gathered her thoughts enough to try and explain what was going on, even if she didn't want to.

“Nico… We were doing her ear drops and-”

“Hey, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to. We can talk about it whenever you feel comfortable. Do you want me to finish putting her drops in?” Sana nodded. “How many did you do?”

“Three.” Sana answered.

“Okay. Come on Nico. Only a bit more.” Jihyo picked up the ear dropper that had fallen on the ground. Nico whined in Jihyo’s arms, but she usually was a bit more behaved when Jihyo asked things of her. Sana suspected it had to do with the fact she was usually too scared to punish her daughter. Usually, that was Jihyo’s job.

Things went a lot smoother with Jihyo putting the drops in. Once she got them all in, Jihyo showed her how to tilt her head before they dried her ear. Nico was exhausted from throwing a fit, so she laid in Jihyo’s arms while Sana watched.

“You did so good, sweetheart.” Jihyo whispered to Nico. “I promise, this will make you feel so much better. We only have to do this a couple more times.” Sana would have expected Jihyo to take a bit tougher of an approach with Nico. She knew they shouldn't tolerate the fit she was throwing, but Nico was only three, and her ear infection seemed like it hurt. “It won’t hurt as much next time. So can you try and be an even better girl for me?”

“Uh-hum.” Nico hummed.

“Thank you.” Jihyo kissed Nico’s hair, her hand finding its way back to Sana’s. Nico yawned, snuggling closer to Jihyo’s chest before closing her eyes.

“I didn't know you were coming home early.” Sana whispered, conscious Nico was trying to sleep. She felt a bit better now that she had a minute to pull herself together.

“I forgot my lunch.” Jihyo giggled.

“Really?” Sana asked suspiciously. It wasn't very Jihyo like to leave her lunch at home.

“Really. I was so worried about Nico and tired from going to the ER at 2 in the morning.” Jihyo explained. “Plus, I just wanted to check in. I'm glad I did come home when I did.”

“Yeah- I’m sorry.”

“As I said, you should not apologize. You did nothing wrong. I’m sure it was scary for her to be screaming like that. I think by the time I took over she was tired.”

“I- It reminded me of my mom.” Sana sighed.

“You are nothing like your mom Sana.” Jihyo nodded. “You are kind, and sweet, and you love Nico so much. You would never hurt her. I know that, Mina knows that, and Nico knows that too.”

“I know, I know. I just- I don't want her to get hurt, like I did.” Tears rolled down Sana’s cheeks as she admitted it. “And- and I guess I’ve been thinking about my parents more, since they were released and stuff. And Hyo, I’m so scared.”

“I’m sorry baby. I know it's scary. But they cannot find us. There’s millions of people in Seoul and even if they do, which they won't, they will have to go through me and Mina before they can even look at you.” Jihyo squeezed Sana’s hand.

“Like you're so tough.” Sana couldn't help but giggle.

“I’ve been working out.” Jihyo argued. “Mina too. It was mainly to scare off anyone who tries to bully Nico. We could totally take anyone, your parents included.”

“Please tell me you aren't trying to intimidate four year olds.”

“I mean if they are mean to Nico-”

“You're so cute.” Sana giggled, leaning forward and pecking Jihyo’s lips. “Did I ever tell you I love you?”

“Maybe once or twice.” Jihyo smiled. “Hey, why don't I go put this little one to bed and we can watch a movie together. Mina should be home around four, and maybe we can have your favorite.”

“Okay.” Sana smiled. “Hey Jihyo?”

“Hm?”

“Thank you. For everything. You do so much for me and Mina and- I just feel the need to thank you.”

“Really Sana, don't worry about it. I love both of you so much, I don't even feel like I’m doing anything.” Jihyo smiled.

“Mama.” Sana was about to respond when Nico suddenly woke up and looked at Jihyo.

“Oh hi sleepy head, ready for a nap?”

“Mommy.” Nico nodded.

“I’m here, baby girl.” Sana took Nico’s hand.

“I’m sorry for being bad.”

“I know sweetie. I’m not mad. You did good.” Sana couldn't believe how sweet her daughter was. Really, she had gotten so lucky. With Nico, and with Mina and Jihyo. She doesn't even want to think about where she would be without them.

“Cookie?” Sana giggled.

“After your nap.” Nico whined, but didn't say anything as her fingers slipped through Sana’s and Jihyo carried her to her room. Jihyo wasn't gone for long, returning quickly and offering her arms for a hug. Sana quickly let herself fall into a hug with Jihyo, and the shorter woman rested her chin on Sana’s head.

“I’m so lucky.” Jihyo giggled. “First, I got a huge hug from Mina, and then Nico, and now you.”

“You are huggable.” Sana smiled. “Very comfortable.”

“I don't like where you are going with that.” Jihyo saw the way Sana eyed her chest at the comment. “Naptime isn't very long you horndog.”

“I’m joking.” Sana giggled.

“I know.” Jihyo kissed Sana’s hair. “I love you.”

“I love you too.”

That’s right. Sana was here, with the people she loved. She was safe, they were safe. Her parents were miles away, not even able to get to them if they tried. Everything was perfect.

Sana couldn’t help the giggle that bubbled up her throat when she felt butterfly kisses on her cheeks. She could tell from the gentleness that it was Mina. Jihyo was a lot more passionate in her kisses, and as much as she loved them, Mina’s style was preferred in the morning. 

“Morning.” Sana slowly opened her eyes. She didn’t remember falling asleep last night, and her brain was a little hungover from sleep as Mina’s face slowly came into view. 

“Good morning.” Mina smiled at her, handing her her glasses as she sat up. “Happy birthday.” Sana smiled back at Mina, looking over at the clock on their bedside table. “Ten thirty?” Sana asked. “I don’t think I’ve slept in that long since summer.” As Sana’s brain became less fuzzy, she realized she was so sleep hungover because she had actually gotten a decent amount of sleep for the first time in days. “I’m glad you enjoyed your first gift.” Mina giggled. “Once you were asleep, Jihyo and I moved to the guest room with the baby monitor.” Mina explained. “You didn’t have to do that.” Sana wrapped Mina up in a hug. “Part of the being a mom thing is waking up every three hours for our newborn.” “It’s okay, it’s your birthday.” Mina smiled at her wife. “How did you get her to eat?” Sana asked. “She hates bottles.” “It did kind of suck.” Mina giggled. “But she ate eventually.” Sana put her hand on Mina’s face, swiping her thumb across Mina’s cheek with a smile. “You look tired. You really didn’t have to-” Mina shut Sana up with a kiss. Sana smiled into the kiss, pulling Mina a little bit closer. “Shh. We did it because we love you and you deserve a proper night's rest on your birthday.” Mina smiled at Sana. “Jihyo’s making breakfast, come on.” Sana smiled as Mina took her hand, tugging her out of bed. Sana smiled when she saw Jihyo, wrapped her up in a hug from behind.

“Morning sleepyhead. Happy birthday.” Jihyo smiled as Sana kissed her cheek from behind. “Thank you babe. Pancakes? With chocolate chips?” Sana asked when she saw what Jihyo was making. “Of course.” Jihyo giggled when she felt Mina come up behind Sana. “My wives are so clingy.” Jihyo faked annoyance in her tone. 

“You married us, it was part of the agreement.” Sana giggled as Mina cuddled closer to her. “You get two wives we get a person to cuddle twenty four seven. It’s a win-win.” “Sure.” Jihyo giggled, giving Sana a chocolate chip. Sana hummed at the taste, smiling and kissing Jihyo’s cheek. They were interrupted when the sound of crying came from the living room, Mina letting go of the hug and moving. “I got it.” Mina sighed. “I’ll probably be done when you get back.” Jihyo informed Mina, flipping the pancakes. 

“Got it.” Mina left the kitchen, giving Sana one more kiss. 

“Was she fussy last night?” Sana asked.

“She always is a little fussy.” Jihyo giggled. “No, she was okay. We even got like a solid three hours of sleep at one point.” “Really?” Sana asked. “Impressive.” “I know.” Jihyo giggled. “We have lots of surprises for you today.” Jihyo turned the heat off and moved the pancakes to a plate. “Including a relivement from mom duty.” “Hey, I do kind of miss holding our little love bug.” Sana giggled as Jihyo turned in her embrace. “Well, you can hold her in a bit. Our fussy little love bug likes to be held.” Jihyo smiled when Sana pressed more kisses to her face. “I wonder where she gets that from?” 

“I think it comes from the donor.” Sana smiled. “Yup, just like her beautiful nose.” Jihyo kissed Sana’s nose. “And her adorable lips.” Jihyo kissed Sana’s lips. “All of that definitely came from the donor.” “One hundred percent.” Sana giggled, pulling Jihyo into another kiss. “What are the plans for the day?” “We’re going to eat some special pancakes.” Jihyo started. “And then we’re going to go on our morning walk with Nico and then we’re taking Nico to Nayeon and Momo’s to go on a special surprise date.” “Surprise date?” Sana hummed. “Yup. Mina planned the whole thing.” Jihyo smiled when she saw Mina come into the room, holding the baby. “Right babe?” “Uh-hum. And it will be ten times better than our christmas date.” Mina giggled. 

“Our christmas date wasn’t awful per say.” Sana laughed. “We just all couldn’t stand being away from Nico so gave up after ten minutes and spent the rest of the night watching her sleep.”

“Well, Momo and Nayeon Unnie have made us promise to surrender our phones so we won’t do that again tonight.” Jihyo smiled. “Anyway, breakfast is ready.” “Nico isn’t letting me put her down again, so we’ll have a guest today.” Mina sat down at the table, holding Nico closely. “I’ll take her.” Sana moved over to Mina and opened her arms. Mina handed the baby over and Sana cradled the two month old, kissing her hairline. “I was still supposed to be pregnant with you, you know?” “This is better though, isn’t it?” Jihyo smiled. “Much better. I would much rather be holding her like this than be stuck on bed rest and super uncomfortable.” Sana smiled as Nico cuddled closer to her chest. “Besides, she got an extra special first christmas. She got to come home and see her grandfather and her moms. Plus all her aunts.” Sana squeezed Nico’s tiny hand as the baby cuddled closer to her. “I do like getting to hold her.” Mina smiled, grabbing Nico’s other hand. “Me too. I’m happy the hospital let us take her home a little early.” Jihyo put the plate with pancakes on the table, smiling at the scene of her wives and her daughter. “Unfortunately though, she cannot have any special chocolate chip pancakes.” “I know, poor girl. When she’s a little older.” Sana giggled when Jihyo put a plate in front of her. “Aw, it’s a heart.” 

“Happy birthday.” Jihyo kissed Sana’s cheek. “I can take Nico if you want to eat.” “I can do two things.” Sana giggled as Nico tugged on her hair. “I’m starting to get used to it. She probably missed me all night cause I’m her favorite mom.” “Yeah right.” Jihyo scoffed. “I’m definitely her favorite, she let me give her a bottle this morning.” “It took you like thirty minutes and a call to Nayeon Unnie.” Mina rolled her eyes. “But I did it.” Jihyo nodded. “Anyway, let’s eat breakfast.” “Okay sure, but I’m definitely Nico’s favorite mom.” 

“Definitely not!” 

xx 

“It looks like it’s going to snow doesn’t it?” Sana asked as she looked up at the sky. They had been taking Nico on a walk every day since they came home, and only a few days in they were still enjoying taking it.  

“It does.” Mina nodded, readjusting Nico’s baby blanket. The baby was fast asleep, having fallen asleep while Sana was eating breakfast.

“It would be nice if it snowed, wouldn’t it?” Jihyo asked, Sana’s hand intertwined with her’s in her pocket. 

“Snow is pretty.” Sana squeezed Jihyo’s hand. “Mina I think she’s okay, she’s still asleep.” “Just making sure.” Mina giggled. “The last thing we want is her getting sick. She already barely sleeps.” “She’ll get better at sleeping. She slept for three whole hours last night.” Jihyo smiled at the sight of Mina.  “You know, I get why Nayeon Unnie says all we do now is think about her.” “She’s only seven weeks old, of course we’re obsessed with her.” Mina smiled when Sana rested her head on Mina’s shoulder. “It’s a healthy obsession.” Sana hummed. “Anyway, Nayeon Unnie can’t talk. Remember the time she made us look at pictures of the twins for three hours.” “She made a presentation.” Jihyo rolled her eyes at the memory. “We’re not that bad.” “Well, we have enough pictures of Nico to make a presentation.” Mina giggled. “We’ve only had her for three days.”

“Well, it’s been an amazing three days.” Sana smiled. “I hope they continue like this forever.” “I mean I could do with some more sleep.” Jihyo giggled. “But, otherwise, I wouldn't mind every day being like this from now on.” “Me either.” Mina smiled, moving to kiss Sana’s head, humming as they continued walking. While they knew they all knew they couldn’t be like this forever, they knew they wanted to hold onto days like this forever. xx 

After dropping Nico off, Mina drove them to Sana’s favorite restaurant. They ate the meal happily, both Mina and Jihyo raining compliments and praise on Sana. Sana giggled and accepted them, holding both of their hands and giving them just as much love back. After, Mina takes them home and Jihyo puts her hands over Sana’s eyes while they sing her happy birthday. Sana blows the candles out on the small cake they got and then they all cuddle up together on the couch. “We have to get Nico soon, don’t we?” Sana giggled as Jihyo kissed her cheeks. They were watching a movie that Sana picked, but none of them were really paying attention. “In a bit.” Jihyo answered. “We still have a while.” Mina muttered, checking her phone while she rested on Sana’s chest. “Oh Nayeon Unnie texted me.” “What did she say?” Sana pulled Mina closer to her, giggling as Jihyo squeezed her. “She said Nico is doing fine and that we should continue to have fun. I think she thinks were are having sex.” Mina answered. 

“Should we?” Sana giggled. “Too sleepy.” Mina muttered, cuddling closer to Sana. “A nap does sound nice, but I’m up for whatever you want, birthday girl.” Jihyo giggled.

“A nap does sound amazing.” Sana hummed. “Should we move to our bed?” “Nah, it’s comfy here.” Jihyo giggled as Sana moved against her, cuddling up to her with a smile. “Having a good day?” “The best.” Sana smiled. “Thanks for not giving me a huge party. I liked them in the past, but this year I think this is better. We saw everyone at christmas.” “We talked about it but we both just wanted to have you to ourselves.” Jihyo tapped Sana’s nose. “Besides, we can have big parties later. Now I would prefer to be alone with you and Mina.” “Couple time is the best.” Sana smiled, noticing that Mina was fast asleep on top of her. She grabbed a blanket, gently putting it over Mina.  “None of us are working for a couple weeks, and we have a baby sitter, so let’s cuddle and take a nap on the couch. Like the fun adults we are.” “Okay.” Jihyo kissed Sana’s head. “Happy birthday. I love you.” 

“Love you too.” Sana hummed in response, smiling as she got hugged tighter. 

Big birthday parties were fun, but this? This was better.

[onceuponaloonatic]

part two hehe ❤️ sorry if this isn’t the best, i’m pretty tired and just wanted to get it done. the writing does feel a little dry and boring, so i’m sorry. but anyway, happy mina day!

“Where are we going?” Mina whined as she adjusted her suitcase in her arm. Sana and Jihyo had woken her up super early, and grabbed her along with Nico and drove them to the airport. Nico was fast asleep, it was still an hour before she normally woke up. Mina was jealous of her daughter.

“Wouldn't you like to know.” Jihyo smiled as she took a sip of coffee. Sana had been sent to get their plane tickets, leaving the resst of them on a bench by the entrance. Mina wouldn’t call herself a morning person, and she didn’t loved getting dragged from bed so early on any day. When Sana and Jihyo told her they were taking a trip yesterday, They didn’t tell her much, just to pack a swim suit and they would take care of Nico’s luggage. Mina was almost a bit frustrated with how little she knew, but every time she tried to ask her partners would gently shush her and tell her not to worry. 

“Oh! There you are!” Mina groaned when she heard Nayeon’s voice. Mina loved Nayeon, she really did, but she was exhausted. She should have expected this, normally if they went somewhere for spring break Nayeon and Momo would tag along as well. Their kids were usually also on spring break and Momo would just request the week off. Since the rest of their friends weren’t educators, they were the only ones who got time off in March, so it would usually just be there two families going on vacation.

“Finally.” Jihyo giggled. “Thought you would never get here.” “We made it on time.” Mina looked up to see Nayeon with a half asleep Kazumi in tow. Jae was behind her, dragging both his own and Haneul’s luggage. Haneul was missing, along with Momo. “I see Nico is still asleep.” “She hasn’t woken up at all yet.” Jihyo giggled. “Her or Mina.��� “I’m awake.” Mina groaned. “I would like to know where we are going.” “You haven’t told her?” Nayeon asked. “No.” Jihyo giggled. “It’s more fun as a surprise.” “Your right.” Nayeon grinned. “Jae, can you go bring the luggage to your mom and sister.” “Sure.” Jae nodded, hauling the luggage off towards Sana and Momo. 

“Where are we going?” Mina asked, looking to Nayeon for help. 

“It’s a surprise.” Nayeon giggled.

“Everyone keeps saying that.” “Trust us.” Jihyo leaned over to gently kiss Mina’s head. “It’s better this way.” xx 

Mina did not remember the plane ride at all. She remembers boarding the plane vaguely, she was too tired to really pay attention and Jihyo and Sana seemed to be awake enough for all of them. Nico was fast asleep, and the minute Mina got into her seat she was out too. A couple hours later, she woke up on the plane and realized she still didn’t know where she was going. “Hi Ka-san.” Nico smiled at her as she woke up. She was in Sana’s lap, who seemed to be taking her turn napping. Jihyo had headphones in and was watching the new drama she had gotten into. 

“Oh hi baby.” Nico crawled into Mina’s lap, Mina wrapping her arms around Nico’s waist. “You look cute today.” Nico was wearing the little overalls Dahyun had gotten her for her birthday and a pink shirt. Mina couldn’t help but think whoever dressed her did a good job. She looked especially nice compared to her parents, who were all just wearing various combinations of sweatpants and hoodies. “Do you know where we are going?” “Mommy said it’s a surprise.” Nico shrugged. “Ap-ap?” Nico asked, Mina nodding and looking around for Nico’s bag. Nico loved apple sauce, she had ever since she was old enough to have it. They always kept lots of applesauce pouches around whenever Nico was going with them somewhere, they had learned that lesson the hard way.

“Well, hopefully the plane ride won’t be much longer.” Mina sighed, looking out the window of the plane. She had no concept of how long they had been on the plane, but given the fact they were over ocean she assumed they had been flying for a while. Nico didn’t answer, completely engrossed in her apple sauce as Mina decided to get her switch out. It could be a while after all, she might as well do something to pass the time.

xx 

“Hawaii?” Mina almost couldn’t contain her excitement when the pilot made the announcement they were landing. They had been on the plane for what felt like years, and Mina had guess it had to be somewhere like the US given how long they had been flying. “Happy early birthday baby.” Sana smiled at her. Mina couldn’t stop her smile. She loved Hawaii, and they hadn’t been in a while. Nico was still young and they just figured a long trip like the one to Hawaii would not be a good idea. Nico did fine though, she was mainly entertained watching Mina play Super Mario Odyssey and napping. “You could have told me.” Mina pouted. “I would have packed different if I knew we were coming to Hawaii.” “Don’t worry, I grabbed some of your extra swimsuits.” Sana smiled. “And Jihyo packed like three years worth of sunscreen and aloe lotion.” “Did you remember the towels? The bug spray-”

“Yes babe.” Sana giggled. “Don’t worry too much.” “Okay.” Mina smiled. “I trust you.” “Good.” Sana grinned. “Because there’s more.” “There’s more?” Mina asked. “But this is already enough.” “You’ll see.” Sana laughed at her confusion. “Just a bit logner now.” xx 

After getting off the plane and making sure they got everyone’s stuff and got through customs, they found themselves waiting for an uber outside the airport. Haneul and Jae were playing a mobile game while Kazumi tried to explain to Nico where they were. The adults couldn’t help but think it was cute, and Nayeon was trying her best to discreetly take pictures of the way her youngest and Nico were holding hands. 

Once they are at their temporary home, Mina falls in love with the view. The ocean is right behind the condonminun they were staying in and the warm air was making all of Mina’s worries disappear. 

“This is nice.” Mina commented as she looked over the condo. Sana and Nico had left to get grocerices, leaving Jihyo and Mina some down time to relax. Jihyo had already poured them both a glass of wine and they both had plans to go sit out on the balcony. “Yeah, we got a good deal on it.” Jihyo smiled. “Do you like the surprise? I know you don’t normally like leaving the house, but I figured you could make an exception for Hawaii.” “I love it.” Mina sighed blissfully. 

“I’m glad.” Jihyo took a sip of wine. “Oh look, it’s officially your birthday back home.” “It is?” Mina checked her phone. “Oh wow.” “Happy birthday babe.” Jihyo leaned forward and pecked Mina’s cheek. “I get the first kiss this year huh?” “Well you are the only one here.” Mina giggled. “Sana and Nico will both try and be the next ones though.” “I know. I just like being first.” Mina giggled at that, moving her chair closer to Jihyo’s. “Want to take a picture?” Mina nodded, both of them moving to take a selfie together. Once it was done, Jihyo smiled at the result. “Beautiful. I should get it framed tomorrow.” “Tomorrow? We should wait until we get home shouldn’t we? The glass will break in our luggage.” “Babe.” Jihyo giggled at her. “Why do you think we already had the key?” “Cause the rental let you have it early.” “Mina think back to eveyr vacation we have ever taken, they never send you the key early.” Jihyo giggled. “But- wait… Did you?” “Me and Sana yes.” Jihyo giggled at the surprise on Mina’s face. “You know how we always talked about retiring here. We’ve been saving up for this for a few years, Nico set us back a bit but we were able to find a good deal on this place.” “So your saying it’s ours?” Mina asked, excitement filling her.

“Yup.” Jihyo smiled. “Signed the lease last week. I know the furniture is a bit tacky, and Sana already has plans to redo it. The location is good though. This is our first time seeing it in person, glad it wasn’t far off from the pictures.” “We own a condo… In Hawaii.” Mina smiled. “Yeah.” Jihyo giggled at her. “Do you like your birthday present?” “Like it?” Mina asked. “I love it. Thank you so much.” “Of course, anything for you.” Jihyo pulled Mina into a quick kiss. “I love you.” “I love you more.”

“I really think we got her too many presents.” Jihyo giggled as she sat surrounded by wrapping paper. Nico was asleep, and given the fact Christmas was only a few days away, they decided to have a little wrapping session for all their presents for their daughter. However, shortly into the process Jihyo was realizing just how many presents they had gotten for their daughter. “She’s three, I don’t think she needs this many presents.” “I don’t think there’s such a thing.” Sana giggled. “She’s three, that’s exactly why we are getting her so many presents. It’s her first Christmas she may remember! It’s exciting!”

“I do kind of agree with Jihyo here.” Mina giggled, looking at the pile of presents they already had for Nico. “But, it is a little too late.”

“I suppose so.” Jihyo smiled at the two. “My dad is really bummed he can’t come this year. He told me to take tons of pictures of Nico.”

“I’m sorry he couldn’t be here babe.” Sana put the present she was wrapping down and held Jihyo’s hand, giving it a quick kiss. “It’s okay. I just wish he would let me help him out sometimes. Especially when it comes to money, he doesn’t let me contribute anything.” Jihyo sighed. “Anyway, enough of that, how many are going to be from Santa and how many are going to be from us?”

“Let’s wait until we see how many we have. Maybe half and half?” Mina suggested.

“Sounds good.” Jihyo nodded.

“Mitang, your bows are so pretty!” Sana smiled when she noticed her wife wrapping a box. “Maybe we should say the ones Mina wrapped are from Santa, her’s looks the best.” “I’m trying.” Jihyo pouted, but it quickly shifted into a smile when she saw the teddy bear she had picked out for Nico. “I forgot about this.”

“That’s so cute.” Sana smiled at the bear. “She does love stuffed animals.” Jihyo giggled. “She does.” Mina nodded. “And she hates dolls.” “I know. It’s so funny.” Jihyo laughed at the thought. Momo and Nayeon had tried to donate some of their kids' old toys, including the Barbie dolls Jae and Kazumi had been in love with. However, the minute they pulled them out for Nico she threw a huge fit and refused to play with them. They were in storage now, in case Nico’s opinion of dolls ever changed. “You know, did we ever tell her about Santa?” “I… Don’t think we did.” Sana giggled. “Oops?” “Well, we’re taking her to get pictures with Santa tomorrow, I guess we can explain it then?” Mina suggested. “Hopefully she’ll be okay with getting pictures taken. Remember that time Nayeon called me crying because the twins and Kazumi were all throwing fits when they tried to get them pictures with Santa?” Jihyo laughed at the memory. “That is the advantage of there being three of us and one of her, even if she does throw a tantrum we’ll probably be able to handle it.” Sana laughed. “Anyway, we still are going to leave her with Nayeon and Momo on December twenty sixth right?” “Right.” Jihyo nodded.

“Are we sure we have to leave her for a whole night? We can have a nice date when she’s here.” Mina looked at her two wives.

“Babe, we have literally never had a break from her since she came home from the hospital.” Sana pointed out. “I love hanging out with her, but we need Misahyo time sometimes too.”

“I’m just worried about her asthma.” Mina sighed. “It’s one night Mina, and she will be with Nayeon Unnie and Momo. They know about Nico’s health and what to do when her asthma is acting up.” Sana pointed out.

“Nayeon Unnie already told me we can call her before bedtime. She probably will forget all about us the minute we tell her she’s going to spend the night with Kazumi, Jae, and Hanuel.” Jihyo giggled at the thought. “And if she isn’t okay, it’s only a five minute drive.” Mina took a deep breath, leaning back on her hands and looking at both of her wives. She looked considerably calmer, something both of her wives were happy about. “Anyway, this is the last present we have for Nico.” Jihyo placed the gift bag she was working on next to the pile of presents they already had going. “Let’s just take half of these and stick them in our closest. We can label them all tomorrow.” Sana suggested. “I’ll take them up and check on Nico. And then we can have couple time.” Sana smiled, grabbing some of the presents and putting them in a laundry basket. “Sure.” Jihyo giggled when Sana winked at her. Sana took the presents upstairs as quietly as possible, Nico insisted on sleeping with her door open, but she was also a light sleeper. Sana swore she got that from Mina. Sana hid the presents in their closet, making sure to shut the door in case Nico joined them in bed. She then went to check on Nico, quietly pushing the door open a little more to see better. The toddler was fast asleep, cuddled with her favorite stuffed animal and her baby blanket. Sana always melted when she looked at Nico, but she looked especially angelic when she slept. When Sana was young, she honestly never thought she would be a mom. Sure, she loved kids and all, it was just never something she imagined herself doing. Even in her twenties, Sana still had no idea if she wanted kids. Mina was the same way, and for the first three years of their relationship kids weren’t brought up. It was Jihyo who brought it up in the first place. All of them knew Jihyo would make a great mom one day, and it really didn’t come as a surprise that she wanted to become one. Jihyo had reassured both of them though that it was something she wanted to wait for, and Sana honestly was thankful they had waited so late to have kids. Being the fun Aunts for a while was nice, and Sana genuinely thinks they were able to become better parents because they waited so long to have Nico. “Mommy…” Nico whined, and Sana realized she had probably let in too much light from the hallway. Sana instantly moved to Nico’s side, pressing a kiss to Nico’s forehead. “Go back to sleep baby.” Sana muttered as quietly as possible. Nico nodded in response, closing her little eyes again. Sana waited a bit to make sure she was actually asleep before skillfully leaving Nico’s room, making sure to leave her door how she liked it. She made sure to be extra quiet going down the stairs, finding her wives playing a video game together.

“Nico asleep?” Mina asked, not even looking at Sana as she sat on the couch.

“Yes.” Sana pouted. When her wives played games, they got really into it. Normally Sana thought it was cute, but they hadn’t had time to themselves in weeks and she wanted to cuddle them. They had just finished grading all of the finals and getting all their final grades in, so even if they had technically been off work for a couple days today was the first real day of their winter break. “That’s good.” Mina muttered. “We better still be quiet though.” “Probably.” Sana deepened her pout when they started another round. Neither of them had even looked at her. She didn’t mind them playing games, but she would prefer to watch them play while she was in one of their laps. Jihyo was the first to notice her struggle. The younger girl just giggled and pulled Sana into her lap, giggling when Sana kissed her neck. “Better?” Jihyo asked.

“Much.” Sana smiled, placing a couple more fleeting kisses to Jihyo’s neck. Mina moved to press against Sana’s side and Sana happily threw her arms around Mina, alternating giving her and Jihyo kisses while they played their game.

Really, one of them should have predicted that Nico’s first time taking pictures with Santa was not going to go well. Nico wasn’t around that many men, her male cousins were still teenagers and Jihyo’s dad only came over a couple times a year, so it made sense she was a little freaked out being placed in a random man’s lap. When they tried to explain that Santa brought her presents while she was sleeping, she burst out in tears, terrified of a stranger in their house.

Mina and Jihyo really admired Sana for her persistence. SHe wanted to get a nice picture of Nico with Santa, and she tried really hard. But even she broke when Nico almost had an asthma attack from how much she was crying. “Hey, hey you're okay.” Jihyo was holding Nico while Mina got them hot chocolate and Sana sat off to the side thinking about ways to make Nico not be afraid of Santa. “Santa won’t come if you don’t want him to.” “Scary.” Nico muttered, her breath unsteady while she held onto Jihyo for dear life.

“I know.” Jihyo sighed, kissing Nico’s head. “We won’t make you go see him again if you don’t want to.” Nico looked up at her and nodded frantically. “Okay, let’s get you all cleaned up.” Jihyo grabbed a tissue pack from Sana’s purse and began to wipe the snot and tears from Nico’s face. “Are you still pouting?” She turned to Sana, who was looking through the pictures on her phone. “I never thought of Santa as being scary…” Sana trailed off. “I don’t know. I guess I just wanted Nico to have the Christmas I always imagined when I was little, and Santa was a part of that. I’m sorry I tried to force you Nico-chan.” Sana sighed, putting one hand over Jihyo’s on Nico’s back.

“Can you forgive mommy?” Jihyo asked Nico. Nico sniffled and then nodded, quietly catching her breath in Jihyo’s arms.

“Hey.” Jihyo smiled when she heard Mina’s voice.

“Hi pretty lady.” Jihyo joked. She giggled some more when Mina rolled her eyes, handing her a Starbucks cup. “Nico look, Ka-san got you hot chocolate.” “Choco?” Nico pulled away from Jihyo and looked at the cup.

“It’s a little hot, let mama try it first so you don’t burn your tongue.” Mina smiled at Nico as she handed Sana a coffee, nursing her own iced coffee in her hands.

“So I can burn my tongue?” Jihyo joked, holding the bright red cup up to her lips. She took a quick sip, sighing pleasantly at the taste and the fact it didn’t burn her mouth. She decided to fake it though, and hissed like she had burned her mouth. “How could you do this to me Mina?”

“Not your precious tongue!” Sana grunted when Mina elbowed her in the side for the joke. “Mama hurt?” Nico asked her, looking at her with the most innocent and concerned eyes Jihyo had ever seen.

“No, no. It’s not hot. You can have some.” Jihyo nodded quickly, holding the cup up for Nico to take a sip. Nico took a quick sip, smiling at the taste. “I asked for kids temperature.” Mina smiled a ther, sitting next to Jihyo. “Do you like it?” “Yummy!” Nico giggled.

“I’m glad.” Mina smiled at Nico. “Do you feel better?” Nico nodded at the question.

“Mama said Santa won’t come if I don’t want him to.” Nico explained, tugging on Jihyo’s sleeve to get her to give her another sip.

“Yeah, if that's what you want.” Mina smiled at Nico.

“I guess this was for nothing then.” Sana sighed, looking at Nico’s Christmas dress. She had been looking forward to getting some nice Christmas photos of Nico to show her coworkers and friends.

“I mean, we could still take some pictures.” Jihyo suggested. “Nico, why don't we take some pictures with the pretty Christmas lights?” “Lights?” Nico had noticed the lights when they were coming in. She thought they were pretty, but since they were worried about the Santa line being long they didn’t really stop to look at them for very long. “Yeah. And we can take some pictures with the tree.” Jihyo suggested. “Does that sound like a good idea?” She turned to Sana, who nodded quickly.

“That sounds like a great idea!” Sana smiled. “You can finish your hot chocolate first though sweetie.” Sana giggled at Nico when she got hot chocolate on her upper lip. “Nico, let mama have some more.” “Nu-uh.” Nico nodded, moving Jihyo’s hand to help her take another sip. They didn’t entirely trust Nico to hold cups yet, especially ones that didn’t have straws. Normally, she wouldn’t get to use a cup without a straw, but hot chocolate was a bit of an exception. “Please?” Jihyo asked, giggling at the look on Nico’s face.

“Okay.” Nico pouted, watching Jihyo take a sip of her hot chocolate. “More.” “Sure.” Jihyo giggled at Nico, helping her take another sip. All the adults knew there was no way Nico was going to be able to finish an entire hot chocolate, even if it was the smallest size her stomach would start to hurt before she could finish it. But, they all felt a little bad about not preparing her properly for meeting Santa. They had tried to explain to her who Santa was in line, but looking back they realized they probably made it worse. Once they decide Nico’s had enough hot chocolate, they clean her up and go off towards the Christmas lights display. With the sugar from the hot chocolate, Nico is more than happy to pose for pictures. Sana giggles and encourages Nico before joining in the pictures herself. She eventually ropes Mina and Jihyo in and most of their pictures end up being selfies with one of them awkwardly having to hold a phone. They turn out good though, and really that’s all that matters.

As Sana looks through them later, she decides that they were better than pictures with Santa.
