Sitting down at a large table within Baekhyun's house, Minseok glanced around to his friends.

          Sehun was sitting to his right while the Chinese boy named Yixing sat to his left. A little ways away was Junmyeon and Jongdae who sat side by side and kept giggling at their own little inside jokes. And then there was Jongin and Kyungsoo who were being cute and laughing at something Baekhyun and Chanyeol had said. A lovely atmosphere that felt very much like a literal family gathering.

          Kibum had texted Minseok earlier telling him Happy Thanksgiving and that he'd be eating with his friends if he happened to want to come over. Of course he turned him down and ended up staying here to keep Yixing and Sehun company. Their the only three people without someone else there with them. In other words, they're the only single men present.

          Sehun has Zitao and Minseok has Luhan, but their idols couldn't make it because of schedules and so they're alone on this day. At least they have their friends to keep them company. Though Yixing keep occasionally bringing up Yifan here and there and Minseok always sees Jongdae and Junmyeon tense up slightly at the mention of his name.

          Baekhyun knows something about Yixing and Yifan and is just keeping silent with that knowing smirk he always does when he holds information that others don't. It's quite annoying, but everyone's learned that he probably won't reveal anything untill he's ready to and so no one pesters him to speak.

          Glancing to his phone, Minseok saw that he had a message from Luhan.

          7_LUHAN_M - Happy Thanksgiving Baozi! Sorry I couldn't be there but I hope you're having a nice time with the others!!!

          99_XIUMIN_L - Haha I am, wish you were here though.

          7_LUHAN_M - Aw~ Is my Baozi finally missing me?

          99_XIUMIN_L - Shut it Lu.

          7_LUHAN_M - Love you~

          99_XIUMIN_L - Love you to. What are you doing right now anyway?

          7_LUHAN_M - Another live broadcast, turn on the tv ^^

          Sehun's obnoxious laugh broke through the air like a knife as he showed his phone to Baekhyun. With the loudest laugh Minseok has ever heard, Baekhyun ran to the TV that was placed near the dining table and turned it on right to the exact Chinese channel Luhan is doing the interview on.

          Oh no.

          Right there was Luhan and Zitao with the widest smiles on their faces as they both looked down to their phones, waiting for replies from both Minseok and Sehun. They put both their conversations on two separate screens. Stupid technology and nosy interviewers.

          99_XIUMIN_L - You seriously put mine and TaoHun's chats up on live television?!

          7_LUHAN_M - Yup~

          99_XIUMIN_L - You're horrible.

          7_LUHAN_M - I know.

          99_XIUMIN_L - Ugh, what is Sehun saying? I'm not watching the tv.

          7_LUHAN_M - Stuff about how you're old and that we're an old couple because him and Zitao are young compared to us.

          99_XIUMIN_L - I'm siting at the dinner table with him right next to me, should I kill him?

          7_LUHAN_M - NO! MURDER IS BAD BAOZI xD

          99_XIUMIN_L - Fine... Why is ours and TaoHun's convo on the screen anyway? It's Thanksgiving so shouldn't everyone be with their friends and family?

          7_LUHAN_M - Yeah, but Zitao and I are our fans family and you two are also apart of that now so this is our way of spending time with them ^^

        99_XIUMIN_L - Oh. Hello my new family!!!!

        A a loud chorus of "hellos" sounded through the tv, causing everyone at the dinner table to laugh as they watched the broadcast.

          7_LUHAN_M - They said hi back lol

          99_XIUMIN_L - I heard x3 Bacon turned on the tv and everyone is watching as Sehun and I text you two.

          7_LUHAN_M - xD We're probably interrupting your dinner

          99_XIUMIN_L - Yup.

          7_LUHAN_M - So honest -___-

          99_XIUMIN_L - Love you~

          7_LUHAN_M - Love you to (^з^)-☆

          99_XIUMIN_L - So, remember that interview you did a while back when I was brought up and you said that there was a surprise for me around Christmas time? Care to explain this to our family :3

          7_LUHAN_M - Sneaky. I'm not saying anything.

          7_LUHAN_M - And now the crowd is booing me look what you started Baozi!

          99_XIUMIN_L - I'm proud of this. They're on my side.

          7_LUHAN_M - Shut up and go back to eating your dinner.

          99_XIUMIN_L - I will.

          7_LUHAN_M - Who's there anyway?

          99_XIUMIN_L - Bacon and his boyfriend Yoda, Dancer and Owl couple, Unicorn, Me, Sehun, and Dinosaur with his not-yet-boyfriend Guardian Angel.

          7_LUHAN_M - Lots of nicknames, I like it. What's my nickname? :D

          99_XIUMIN_L - Lu.

          7_LUHAN_M - That's not creative at all Baozi.

          99_XIUMIN_L - Fine, Deer.

          7_LUHAN_M - MY NAME LITERALLY TRANSLATES TO DEER AND THIS IS WHAT YOU SAY?!

          99_XIUMIN_L - Yes now go bug Zitao and let me eat.

          7_LUHAN_M - Fine fine, I'll be nice and just message you later. Say bye to our family!

           99_XIUMIN_L - Goodbye everyone and I hope you have a wonderful day even though you had to listen to these two doofuses on stage for a literal interview.

          7_LUHAN_M - Our family says they love you to xD

          99_XIUMIN_L - Love you guys and love you Lu, Bye~

          7_LUHAN_M - Love you Baozi, txt you later!~

          99_XIUMIN_L - ♡

          7_LUHAN_M - ♡

          Jongdae laughed as everyone turned towards Minseok with wide smiles. "You gave us all great nicknames Minnie." He laughed.

          "Bacon and Yoda." Chanyeol burst out laughing as he repeated that.

          Kyungsoo and Jongin nodded their heads in approval. "Dancer and Owl couple, it's perfect."

          "Unicorn." Yixing mumbled under his breath. "I'M A UNICORN?!"

          Everyone laughed at him as Sehun finished his conversation with Zitao. It ended almost identical to how Minseok's and Luhan's did. Him saying goodbye and their "family" saying it back happily.

          The dinner finished not long after that with everyone saying their own goodbyes, hugging, and then leaving to head back to their everyday lives. After an evening of being win each other and spending time with the whole group instead of just a few people here and there, everyone was surely tired by the end of it. Thankfully the next couple of days wouldn't be too hectic...

          Hopefully.
