Y/N's POV
Ever since December started I have been in the holiday spirit. I went over to target and bought some christmas decorations to decorate my room. I bought some lights, a small christmas tree, some small ornaments, and a cute stocking to hang on my wall. I even picked up a mistletoe just for the heck of it.
Once I got home I called b/f/n to invite her over to help me decorate my room. She of course said yes. A few minutes later she was knocking at my door. I walked to the door and opened it.
"Heeeyyy girlll" we both say and embrace each other in a tight hug. I let her in and shut the door behind her. She heads to my room and plops down on my bed.
"I thought I invited you here to help me decorate, not lay on my bed." I say and also lay down next to her.
"I am gonna help, it's just your bed is too comfy to not lay in it." she says.
"Yeah well we better get started, Marcel is coming over later and I don't want him to see my room half decorated" I say and begin take out the decorations from the bags.
"Hmm you and Marcel have been getting really close lately" she says and begins to untangle the lights.
"Well yeah but we're just friends" I say and look for a place to hang my stocking.
"That's what you say, but I see the way you both look at each other, there's something else there and you know it" she says.
I stayed quiet for a bit, taking in what she said. I have been seeing Marcel as more than a friend lately, but I could never ruin our friendship like that. (LETS RUIN THE FRIENDSHIP... sorry little demi lovato intermission)
"Okay maybe I do have feelings for him, but I just don't know if he feels the same way" I say and turn towards b/f/n.
"Hmm" she says and thinks about it. I see her eyes look around my room until they land on the mistletoe that was laying on my bed.
"Aha, you use this" she said and picked it up and held it up in front of her.
"Mistletoe? How is mistletoe gonna help me find out if he likes me?" I say and run my hands through my hair.
"It's easy. You hang it up. And if he kisses you on the cheek, he sees you as a friend. If he kisses you on the lips, he sees you as something more." b/f/n says and wiggles the mistletoe around.
"That's absolutely ridiculous I am not doing that" I say.
30 minutes later, after b/f/n has left. I find myself hanging the mistletoe above door.
"I can't believe i'm doing this. I can't believe i'm doing this." I whisper to myself as I pin it to the door margin. Once I finish putting it up, I check my phone and see a message from Marcel saying he's on his way. I quickly reply and put my phone down to fix my appearance.
I go to my full length mirror and run my fingers through my h/l hair. I look over my outfit, making sure it looks good. I'm wearing black leggings, a cream colored knit sweater, and some fuzzy socks. I'm brought out of my trance by the doorbell ringing multiple times. I race to the door and see that it's Marcel. I open the door, but he keeps ringing the doorbell.
"Real mature" I say and look at him with an unamused look.
"You know me, always mature" he says and steps through the door and into my house. I close the door behind him and lead him to the kitchen.
"No hello or anything" I say and pull out two water bottles from the fridge and place them on the counter. I turn to the cabinet to pull out some snacks for us when I suddenly feel arms wrap around my waist. I let out a small laugh and turn to face him and give him a proper hug. I wrap my arms around him and burry my face in his chest. He slowly pulls away from the hug and looks down at me.
"Happy now?" he says and smiles at me.
"Very" I say and turn to get the snacks I was gonna get. Once I get them I hand them to Marcel along with the water bottles. We head to my room and I stop at my door.
"Prepare to see the amazing work b/f/n and I did in decorating my room." I say and slowly open the door. I stop at the door frame and hope he sees the mistletoe above us.
"Wow you guys did a really good job" he says and walks into my room like nothing. I stand at the door feeling like a total failure. I notice he's busy putting down the snacks so I take the chance to hurry up and take it down.
I reach up and try to pull it off but i'm surprised by Marcel wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me into a kiss. I'm left stunned for a bit, but I then realize what's happening and I close my eyes and gently place one of my hands on his neck and the other on his cheek and kiss him back. The kiss only lasts a few seconds until he pulls away slowly. I open my eyes and look into his brown ones.
"Wh-what was that for?" I ask.
"Well there is a mistletoe above your door, it's kind of like a law or something" he says.
"Oh" I say and pull away from his embrace.
"But it's also because I finally had the chance to kiss you, something i've always wanted to do" Marcel says and moves closer to me.
"Really?" I say and look up at him.
"Yeah, I noticed that the closer we got as friends the more I started to catch feelings for you, I just didn't want to ruin our friendship" he said and grabs my hands to pull me closer.
"This whole time I didn't say anything about how I felt because I thought you didn't feel the same way" I say and place my hands on his chest. He laughs and leans in to kiss me again. I kiss back but then pull away.
"Wait, what does this make us" I ask.
"Well, I would love for you to be my girlfriend" he says.
"I'd love to" I say and give him a small peck on the lips.
"Now let's cuddle and watch some movies and eat some snacks" I say and pull him to my bed.
Hmm I need to make sure I thank b/f/n for the mistletoe idea.
