"Thanksgiving"
CW: holiday smut ;)

KAI HELD UP a bag of sour patches towards Valentina as they walked over to the brunette in Hemlock's hellish math class. It was the last day of school before winter break, and you could practically feel the happy anticipation as the hours trickled closer and closer to the end of the day.

Midterms were an utter pain in the ass, and Valentina was overjoyed that hell ended yesterday.

She raises her brow suspiciously, wondering why Kai was offering her sour patches. As she opened the bag, she couldn't help but ask, "What's the occasion, Milkovich?"

Kai smirks as they sit at their desk next to her, saying, "I just uh need your help with something."

Valentina snorts as she rips open the bag of candy. "No shit, really? And here I thought you just felt generous to your friends today."

Kai rolls their eyes, leaning their elbows onto the desk as they keep their heads tilted towards her. "You're not my friend."

Valentina cuts them off with a dramatic gasp: "I'm hurt."

Kai chuckles. "You're not my friend, asshole; you're one of my best friends."

Valentina smiles, dimples and all, with eyes full of tease as she tilts her head sideways. "Aw Kai."

The red head rolls their eyes once more, giving her a playful shove. "Can you please shut up and listen?"

Valentina brings her thumbs and index finger to her lips and pretends to zip her mouth, lock it, and toss a key. Kai smirks, shaking their head. "As if that would ever keep you quiet,"

Valentina shrugs, an amused glint shining in her mudpie eyes.

Kai huffs a laugh before starting again: "I need you to help me pick out Alessia's Christmas gift."

Valentina raises her brow as she rips open the bag of sour patches. "It's not even December yet."

Kai grimaces a bit, and Valentina takes it as embarrassment: "I know, but things take time to arrive, and what if I have to make something instead, and I just want to be sure it's perfect for her?" Valentina chuckles, popping a sour patch into her mouth.

"Well, I suppose I can't argue with your dedication." Valentina then smiles and adds, "She'll lose her shit if she finds out you care this much."

Kai hums, smirking a bit at the thought. They liked seeing the blonde all flustered and seeing her smile in excitement about things she loves, and they really wanted to see her like that, ten times over on Christmas.

"So you're going to help me or not?" Kai asks, looking at her expectantly as Valentina pops a few sour patches in her mouth.

She hums in fake contemplation as she chews before saying, "You know, I still would've said yes if you didn't bring me candy."
