your phone wakes you up at what you consider awful o’clock, largely because you’d been planning to sleep in today so who-
namjoon. of course it’s namjoon.
“what,” you whine, rolling so that you’re even further burritoed into your blankets.
“open the door,” namjoon’s voice sounds awfully close for someone on the phone. “i’m outside.”
your brows furrow. a cursory glance over your left shoulder indicates your roommate is still sleeping, looking like a lump buried under blankets on her bed, the way you would also like to be right now, if not for namjoon apparently being outside your room at - you squint at your phone - 10am on a saturday.
“why are you here?” you complain as quietly as you can when you open the door, but instead of responding, namjoon simply leads you to your window.
the gasp you let out is a little too loud, your roommate stirring, causing you to quickly slap your hand over your mouth to muffle yourself. “oops,” you mouth to namjoon, who snickers under his breath.
“hurry up,” he gestures to your dresser. “hoseok is trying to get yoongi right now.”
you frown. “i don’t think yoongi sleeps with his ringer on.”
“no, but his roommate is usually either not here or sleeps like the dead, so if hoseok knocks loud enough, he can probably force yoongi out of bed.” namjoon conveniently leaves out the part where hoseok will mention your name as many times as needed to get yoongi out of bed.
you usher namjoon out of the room to get changed, throwing on several layers before tucking yourself into boots and your heaviest winter coat. you snag a beanie and your keys and then duck outside, yanking the beanie low over your ears before beaming up at namjoon. “i’m ready.”
namjoon grins.

you love winter. people say you’re more of a summer kind of girl, so they’re always surprised when they find out winter is your favorite season. but you love the holidays, the hot drinks, the snow. you love the snow.
your eyes shine when you reach the doorway of your building, clear glass revealing the landscape of snow before you, still mostly fresh and untouched by students trudging around. namjoon taps the pompom of your beanie. “come on,” he opens the door, blasting you immediately with the cold air, making you wrinkle your nose slightly. “i don’t think hoseok’s strong enough to keep yoongi held outside for long.”
the snow crunches beneath your boots, crisp and clean. you and namjoon locate hoseok easily enough, hoseok bursting out the doors of the student center as soon as he spots the two of you, yoongi miserably trailing behind him into the cold. you giggle at the look on his face - or rather - in his eyes, seeing as he’s bundled head to toe, scarf covering the majority of his face and his beanie covering the rest.
“it’s cold,” he mumbles, voice muffled by the scarf.
“but it’s so nice,” you inhale deeply, enjoying the fresh air. it always feels cleaner after a recent snowfall, and there’s just something so satisfying about being surrounded by it, before it can get muddied by people and cars.
yoongi would disagree with you if he had what hoseok calls a backbone - “yoongi, stand up,” hoseok keeps telling him whenever he catches yoongi melting at the sight of you. but he just can’t help it. you look happy, and that’s really all that matters to him.
and then namjoon smacks you in the back with a snowball, and yoongi watches the way your expression drops, a dangerous spark in your eyes.
namjoon’s too busy cackling to notice the way you spin slowly, dipping down to gather snow in your bare hands, ignoring the way your fingers freeze immediately, skin turning red from the cold. none of it matters, especially when the snowball hits namjoon square in the face, snow still soft enough not to do any damage minus namjoon spluttering and coughing, pawing it off his face.
you smile pretty at your best friend, that sweet smile that’s won the hearts of half the campus. but they all know you too well, can see the way your eyes light up with a challenge - and the teams are decided without words, namjoon chasing after you as you scream, snagging snow as you run around, spinning around to launch it at namjoon whenever you get a chance. yoongi makes a despondent noise when hoseok gives him a wicked grin, turning and shuffling away with bare minimum effort even when hoseok drops a wet pile on his head.
it’s when you grab yoongi by the hands - tugging him out of hoseok’s reach, beaming up at him, that yoongi starts to actually move, letting you pull him along. “come on,” you giggle. “i don’t lose snowball fights yoongi, i’m not gonna start now.”
yoongi wants to whine, it’s so cold, but how is he supposed to be the one to deny you? so he ducks and dodges and even occasionally whips up a snowball and lands a couple hits on namjoon (he’s an easier target than hoseok) before eventually deciding he’s better off just making snowballs for you behind the mountain the snow plows had dumped off to the side, using it as a fort for protection.
“y/n,” he calls, drawing your attention, breathless when you spin towards him, glowing with happiness. he forgets for a minute what he wanted to say, but you tilt your head cutely at him and he beckons you over. you bounce over to him, full of energy, and he bites his lip, endeared. “hands,” he says, and you blink at him, putting your hands out in front of him while hoseok and namjoon are still preoccupied with trying to tackle each other.
he slips his gloves off, tugging it over your hands instead, pointedly staring down at your hands instead of your face. your eyes are on him, lips parting slightly in surprise at the way he carefully makes sure the gloves are tugged down as far as they can go, a bit big on you.
“won’t you be cold, yoongi?”
he shakes his head, shrugging. “i’ll be okay,” he finally looks up when he’s satisfied with his gloves on your hands, smiling gently at you. your heart flutters, a habit for whenever his lips curve upwards like that, gaze soft on you. you smile back.
both of your heads whip in the same direction when you hear a particularly loud yelp, to find namjoon on the ground, half covered in snow. hoseok cheerfully continues to bury his roommate, on his knees next to namjoon, glancing up to give you a big grin and a wave. yoongi watches as you run over immediately, launching yourself next to namjoon and kicking your legs out, making snow angels.
“i love snow,” you sigh, tilting your head towards namjoon. “you’re the bestest friend ever.”
namjoon, having given up on fighting hoseok, tries not to move too much from the pile he’s under. “i know,” he says. then, “nice gloves.”
you’ll blame your red cheeks on the cold, but you do hold your hands out in front of you, stretching your fingers to display the gloves yoongi let you borrow. you don’t even realize you’re smiling again until yoongi’s head pops into view, hovering over you.
your smile grows even bigger at the sight of him, and you wave. he pulls a hand out of his pocket to wave back, one corner of his lips tugging upwards. your hand twists to the side, yoongi taking the hint to tug you up. instinctively, he reaches out to brush the snow out of your hair and off your hat, making you feel shy.
“should we go back inside, yoongi?” you ask, but he keeps his concentration on getting the snow off you, shaking his head.
“we can stay,” he says, and despite the chill of the snow melting onto your clothes, you feel warm.
