Suthiluk Family
Rain loved Christmas.
Since he was a baby, he would get excited once December came and with that his favorite celebration.
Uea and King weren't sure what made their adorable son love said day so much but they always made sure that they would celebrate Christmas and make it an amazing day for Rain.
Of course that some years it was hard to think of a gift for Rain but their little boy was always happy and grateful with anything they gave him.
He was their little angel and even now that he could be celebrating his favorite day with his siblings or lover, Rain was at home with his parents.
Exchanging gifts and talking about everything and nothing.
Uea and King got lucky with having a wonderful kid like Rain and they hoped that their son would visit them often once he completely moved in with his boyfriend.
"Merry Christmas dad, papa!" Rain says grinning at his parents as the couple smiles soflty at him
"Merry Christmas, Rain" they say and bring their son into a hug before King asks if they want some hot chocolate
Wang Family
Lian didn't love many things outside his family and friends so it isn't surprising that he loves celebrations where the people he loves are gathered in one house.
Christmas is one of those celebrations and he came to love it even more after little Mek joined the family.
Him and Kuea always wanted a kid especially after Diao and Yi adopted Vee so when one day they found a little kid lost and come to find out that he had lost his parents and his blood aunt abandoned him, they didn't lose time in asking him if he wanted to be adopted by them.
Mek came to their lives on Christmas day and since then that day became even more special for the couple.
"Mek! Hia! Can you two set the table?!" Kuea asks from the kitchen, it was their turn to house the gathering of their families and friends for Christmas
"Of course, love" Lian says getting up from the couch where he was reading a book
"Coming, papa!" Mek says as he puts his guitar down and follows Lian to the kitchen
Pitakjiti Family
With a family full of doctors, it was rare for everyone to be able to meet up but one celebration they all tried to celebrate together was Christmas.
So, like every year, Nuch and Metha's house started to be filled by their family as they arrived.
First it was Bohn with little Ben, then Tuaphee and Prakan, then Oat and M, then Nathee and Kheeta and lastly Pond and Mew.
Once everyone had arrived, Nuch and Bohn went to prepare the food while the rest decorated the dining room and put any presents that had been brought into the tree that was in the living room.
"So, you guys finally found a good house and a good workplace?" Pond asks his oldest cousin and his husband
"We did" M answers "We will move in at the beginning of next year but we have already started our new jobs" he adds
"It's good that you have finally found a house" Prakan comments
"Why do you say that, papa?" Oat asks confused
"Some people have been thinking that Bohn is Ben's father with how often they see them together" Tuaphee answers for hia husband
"Really?" Metha asks not having expected that
"Well, it was thanks to Bohn that we decided to adopt Ben" M says
"And he does babysit him much more often than anyone else" Oat says with a small smile
"I imagine that when Bohn gets his own kids that he will spoil them to hell and back" Nathee comments and the others nod in agreement
"The food will be ready soon!" Bohn shouts from the kitchen
"Come on, Ben" M says picking up Ben who had been playing on someone's phone ignoring everyone "We have to wash our hands" he adds before they both leave to the bathroom
"Can one of you come help bring the food to the table?" Nuch asks with her head peeking out of the kitchen
"I will go" Kheeta says making his way to the kitchen and Metha follows him to help his wife and nephew
It would just one out of many more Christmas that their family would spend together and maybe in the future more people would be added to the family.
Kunanon Family
King will admit that he missed passing Christmas with his whole family.
Having his parents and grandparents asking him about everything and nothing, his uncles being chaotic, his sisters gushing about their husband and kids, his nephews playing around and his brothers-in-law just watching the chaotic they joined.
So, when he received a call from Baiboon about his parents' flight going to arrive before Christmas and that he planned to organize a family dinner for Christmas, King could only grin and hope Christmas would arrive soon.
He thinks that even if in the future he marries and has kids of his own, he would still choose to spend Christmas with his parents because otherwise he would miss it...but then again, if he marries King is sure that said person and their future kids would also join in the Christmas family dinner since rarely is anyone able to say no to his papa and Baiboon.
Paramaanantra Family
Sarawat loves his parents, aunts and uncles(even if never got to meet Uncle Kavin and Aunt Kaning) but sometimes they were too much.
Especially when they reunited on the Paramaanantra(he was so happy he was given his mom's last name, unlike Phukong who had their dad's) Mansion to celebrate Christmas together.
So, it isn't surprising that at some point of the night you would find Sarawat, Phukong and their uncle Glakao in some corner just listening to some music as their social battery was at its limit.
And it was even less surprising when Thyme ended up picking his sleeping sons and taking them to their beds as they fell asleep and Glakao called him and Gorya so they could take the kids to their rooms and ask everyone to keep it down.
It was much different from how they used to celebrate Christmas but once they grew up and started their own families, these small celebrations meant everything to them.
Wanichkanchanakul Family
After their father's job gained more recognition and he started to go to parties with their mother to get more allies, the three brothers ended up spending many Christmas without their parents there.
Thankfully they had their nanny, who their mother had saved when she found him behind a collapsed and burning building looking like he went to hell and back, who since he had been contracted as such had become someone really important for the three brothers.
If there was someone that Waan, Win and Wiew idolized it was their nanny, Big.
Big didn't organize anything big to celebrate Christmas but he would have there three brothers help him prepare the food and play games with them until it was time for them to sleep.
And he always bought one present for each of them since they were like his own kids and he didn't have anyone else to spend his money on beside himself.
It was something small but no matter how many years pass by, the three brothers will always cherish those Christmas and choose to do something similar once they start their own families.
Panitchayasawad Family
Christmas was one of the best celebrations for Wayo.
It was one of the times where he could see his three parents, his uncles, his brother and Ming at the same place and time.
With them all living in different places, it was hard for Wayo to be able to see all of them but any family celebration was always spent with all of them in the same place, especially Christmas.
"Have you decided about what will be this year's special activity?" Miw asks approaching her son as Wayo was simply observing everyone who was at the bar Miw and Neo owned
"Hmm, not yet" Wayo says and goes to hug his mom who shakes her head amused
"You are certainly your father and dad's son" Miw teases because Neo and Shin were the most affectionate and clingy of the three of them
"And proud of it!" Wayo grins making Miw laugh
"What did you say to make Miw laugh?" a voice asks from Miw's back and when mother and son look they see Neo there
"Just how proud he was to be as clingy as you and Shin" Miw says just as Wayo runs to hug Neo "Will Shin take too long coming down?" she asks
"He is just taking a shower and then he will go pick up James" Neo answers as he ruffles Wayo's hair
"Father!" Wayo whines and Neo just grins since he loved to tease his son
"This is why I don't visit you often" another voice said and when they looked they saw Pete and his boyfriend
"P'Pete! P'Kao!" Wayo says and jumps at them which the duo easily catch him already used to this whenever they visit him
"Shin will be happy that you have arrived" Neo says and Pete smiles at that because if there was one thing everyone knew was that Wayo and Pete were Shin's little babies and both adored him just as much
"Where is Ming and Uncle PP?" Kao asks curious since rarely was anyone able to find Wayo and Ming separated
"They are just finishing some things and will be here soon" Shin says, finally making his appearance
"Dad!" Pete and Wayo say before running to hug Shin
"Hello, my babies" Shin says softly and kisses both of them in the forehead
"You spoil them" Miw says shaking her head
"I spoil all of you and Wayo has only became more spoiled thanks to his new siblings" Shin says amused and Wayo grins proudly at the mention of his adored siblings
"How about we four go think of the special activity for this year as you tell us about your soulmates, Yo?" Miw asks pointing to herself, Pete, Kao and Wayo as Shin had to go pick up his friend and Neo promised to deliver some food for Luang who was sick and would be unable to join them this year but who had already came to make sure Wayo knew he was alive and desire everyone a happy Christmas
"Okay!" Wayo says excited because he loved to talk about his siblings to anyone
Jirawarakul Family
Arthit was excited.
The last time he and his father, Pisaeng, had gone to his papa's concert was when he had been 10 and Kawii had been unable to change the date for his Christmas concert so Pisaeng decided to surprise his husband by taking Arthit to the concert so they could be there to support Kawii but also that at the end of the day they still ended up spending Christmas together.
So, after many years this was happening again and Arthit had another opportunity to watch how his normally introverted papa shined more than anything on stage, especially with him knowing that Pisaeng and Arthit were among the many people watching the concert.
"Are you sure you don't mind our Christmas being like this?" Pisaeng asks Arthit since his son could have been disappointed that the three of them weren't able to spend their Christmas with the rest of their family like they did most years
"Yes, I love to watch papa on stage" Arthit says giving a smile to Pisaeng "And even if I did, at the end of the concert we will go have dinner together and exchange gifts like papa promised" he adds and Pisaeng sighs
"I don't know how me and Kawii were able to raise such an amazing kid like you" Pisaeng says and Arthit blushes a bit
"I'm not that amazing" Arthit says embarrassed and Pisaeng laughs as he pats his son's head "And I was raised by the best parents I could ask for" he adds with a little smile but Pisaeng is unable to say anything about how adorable his son was since the concert began
Saran Family
Khabkluen sometimes questioned how his family came to be with how different everyone's personality was.
Really, it wasn't surprising that Khabkluen ended up being so awkward and introverted with two tsundere parents(with one also being quite the hot-headed), a cousin who he once thought he loved that was ambivert and many uncles with a diversity of personalities.
Being sincere, maybe the only normal person in his family was aunt Nook and that was him being nice.
"Someone take the drinks from Gun and Por, we do not need them to serenade their husbands and ask them in marriage a gain" Win, one of Khabkluen's parents, asks looking like he was seriously thinking of kicking everyone out of their home
"Come on, Win!" Jorn says "It is pretty adorable to watch that all the times" he adds amused and Win just glares at him
"Say that when you don't have to listen to them simp over their husbands all the time" Win says
"Like you are any different!" Gun says glaring at his friend
"Yeah! You talk continuously about Sound too" Por adds and that starts a fight between the trio
"Sometimes I question why I married Win" Sound sighs but he looks fondly at his husband and friends fight
"Gun may have grown up put he hasn't changed much from his school days" Tinn says also looking fondly(more like lovesick) at his own husband
"My Por just becomes even more amazing with the years" Tiw adds his own part about his husband
"Hey kids" Phat calls and Khabkluen and Gia roll their eyes but look at their uncles "Wanna join us in the terrace eating and telling stories this year?" he asks
"That sounds lovely!" Gia says getting up from the couch she had been while Khabkluen was still thinking which things he preferred, watch his parents and uncles be lovesick simps or give opportunity to his other uncles, his aunt and Gia to ask him anything they wanted to know
"Come join us, Kluen" Yo says appearing out of nowhere with Nook, with both having many snacks in their arms "We miss talking to you" he adds
"And we would love to hear about your crush and your moonlight" Nook adds and that is what sells it to Khabkluen
"Papa, dad we are going to be outside!" Khabkluen says and Sound looks at him and offers a smile before going back to watch the fight
Maybe not a normal Christmas, they weren't that into celebrating it, but it was just one more opportunity so the family could reunite and talk about anything and everything.
