“you have to promise that you won’t laugh when you open your gift.” jaesu’s voice was as deadpan as usual, even while holding the bright neatly wrapped present in his hand. he had never been a fan of valentine’s day as a whole but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t at least attempt to get into the spirit for his girlfriend’s sake. it helped that he had chansol’s assistance in selecting the perfect present. although he wasn’t entirely sure how he managed to talk the other into getting something like this. “i bought a backup present just in case you didn’t like this one.”

a loud scoff could be heard on chansol’s end as he shot the other a glare, “what are you talking about? she’s going to love the one we picked out together because it was a team effort.” inside the bright pink wrapped box was a calendar they had made for joonie featuring pictures from various dates and vacations the three had gone on since they had begun dating, each month capturing a special moment from the life they had started together. “open it! open it! i’m so excited to see what you think.”

jaesu couldn’t help but chuckle as he shook his head slightly, “you’re certainly right about that. that’s the reason i treasure these moments we get to spend together. the temporary distance makes it feel all the sweeter.” he stated with a firm nod of his head. “although, distance also gives me headaches considering just how much chansol whines whenever you’re not around. it’s a wonder i haven’t murdered him yet.” he teased, nose scrunching up slightly.

chansol chuckled as he shook his head slightly in amusement, “note to self: a burlap sack with our faces painted on them next year.” he joked. he was buzzing with excitement when joonie offered up the gift bags, feeling like a kid at christmas. despite that excitement, he reminded himself to slowly open the gift bag and take out the contents carefully. the moment his gaze locked on the socks and the small box, his heartbeat began to quicken. “did you make these yourself, baby? these look so comfy!” he chirped.

jaesu was opening his own gift bag, carefully pulling out the small box and opening it up. his mouth fell agape as he looked the engraved ring over, tears almost threatening to well in his eyes due to the thoughtfulness of the gift. “joonie… this is…” his words trailed off, almost embarrassed that he was getting choked up. “this is perfect — just like you.”

feeling the physical affection from both of the boys had joonie melting in both of their embraces. a soft happy sigh leaving her lips she looks form one to the other just in total awe wondering how it could be possible to just be so in love with two people. "it really is just such a perfect gift.. it means the world to me." she smiled to jaesu when he said that he loved the sentimental value. "ah chansol has the right idea, what i would give to be with you too all the time. though i suppose distance makes the heart grow fonder hm?" she giggled.

feeling the nuzzle from chansol she giggles and smiled warmly. "you could give me a burlap sack and i would be happy." she laughs when he said they had to pick another gift for next year. "i'm sure you two will out do yourselves again." she giggled and looks to him when he asked if they could open their gifts and she nods her head grabbing the two bags. inside contained a pair of socks for each hand knitted, and a small box with a ring for them engraved with 'i love you to the moon and all the stars'. "i hope you both like it..." she said nervously.

jaesu couldn’t help but chuckle as he allowed his arm to drape across joonie’s shoulders despite the other holding her, enjoying each little bit of contact between their bodies. “despite my cynicism, i can’t help but love the sentimental value of the gift. especially if it keeps us on your mind at all times.” he mused, a chuckle following his words. “although, i’m sure if chansol had his way… he’d make sure you’d never leave us. or that we come everywhere with you.” he teased, nose scrunching up slightly.

chansol was quick to nuzzle his cheek against the side of joonie’s head as he leaned into her, “i think the pressure is on next year for when we have to pick another gift. if this is the best one you’ve received, we’ll have to find some way to top this one.” he chuckled softly. “luckily, we have all the time in the world to make new memories together and from that… maybe a new gift idea will pop up.” he wet his lips before shaking his head in response to the other’s worries. “i’m sure your gift is perfect! we’ll love anything you got us because it’s from you!” he chirped. “can we open it now?” he was practically bursting with excitement.

"your silly present ideas could never.. because you put thought and love into it i'd treasure it no matter what but this - this is really oh so special." she says softly unable to look away from the gift her heart melting and feeling like she was falling in love all over again. she smiled leaning into jaesu for a moment as he kisses the top of her head she turns to press a kiss to his cheek smiling. "it's really the best gift ever.." she said dreamily.

feeling chansol's arms around her had her giggling as she melts into his arms happily. "i like that, being able to have a piece of you guys with me." she nods liking the sentiment he thought of. "i miss you guys when we aren't together so it's perfect." she assures. "the that just means we can make many more for years to come!" she giggles as she presses a kiss to her cheek she then takes her turn to press one to his. "oh now i'm embarrassed .. mine isn't nearly as amazing!"

“i want today to be special for you. i didn’t want anything possibly ruining that… even our silly present ideas.” as easy as it had been for jaesu to tease chansol about the gift idea and how potentially corny it was, that didn’t stop the nerves that he can feel washing over him as he keenly watches joonie’s reaction. but the moment she opens it, those anxious feelings melt away almost instantly. relief. even though he knows deep down she deserves so much more than this. “we’re so glad that you love it, darling.” he easily presses a kiss to the top of her head.

chansol is quick to light up with glee the moment she opens the gift, arms easily encircling joonie’s waist as his head comes to rest upon her shoulder. “i thought it might be nice. even when you’re not with us, you’ll have a little piece of us there with you.” it might’ve sounded clingy, but he desperately missed the other whenever she was even at work. “there were so many favourite memories of ours to pick from, we could’ve easily filled about a dozen calendars with them.” he chuckles softly before pressing a kiss to her cheek. this was the purest form of love.

joonie used to dread the love filled holiday - having lacked it for so long. but jaesu and chansol changed all that when the three got together. now she looked forward to it, a time to show them her love. "laugh, why would i laugh?" she smiled looking to jaesu smiling reassuringly. when he tells her that he had a back up gift too she giggles. "oh you sweet baby of mine - you didn't need a back up gift." she sighs shaking her head gently.

she giggles when chansol chirps up saying how she would love it. "he's right! i really will." she smiled happily looking from one to the other. she had their gifts in bags off to the side just as excited to give them to them as well. when she was encouraged to open the gift she stares in awe silent for a moment. "oh my god.." she said as she started to look through. "this.. is the sweetest most thoughtful gift i have ever gotten.." she said he eyes swelling up with tear. "i love it.."
