Who falls for the mistletoe trick? feat. mk1 Liu Kang, Johnny Cage, Tomas, Mileena, Kuai Liang
author note: another severe case of "I'll die if I don't post them today" LOL. Hope you'll like them!
Liu Kang
-He falls for it.
-For real? The creator of this timeline didn't expect a mistletoe from his partner at the entrance of their shared house?
-Yes, Liu Kang knew from day one that this would happen, and he waited, breath itching and hands tingling in front of the doorstep each day since December started.
-You point up, a knowing smirk on your face and Liu Kang acts surprised, white eyes widening a bit before looking down at you.
"What a surprise, dear one." His voice is steady, like always, but your ears twitch, a mischievous undertone you can hear thanks to the time you spent together.
"You knew this would happen right?" You said now in his open arms, steps lulling you, door closing thanks to Liu Kang's graceful kick.
"Maybe" He looks up smiling like a fool "Now it is time to celebrate traditions."
-You are the first to get closer, your lips pressed against his soft ones, his right hand finding peace in the back of your head, pushing you closer, the other on your lower back, moving in slow circle, his fire slowly enveloping you, his tattoos hidden under the bandages glowing faintly.
-Liu Kang loves Earthrealm traditions.
Johnny Cage
-He doesn't fall for it, but you do for sure.
-Not like you had any chance when all the ceiling is filled with mistletoes.
-He welcomes you with open arms, smiling from one ear to the other knowing perfectly well that you won't avoid celebrating the tradition.
-He asks for a kiss each step you make, they are fast, simple smacks.
-Till, one step at a time, the back of Johnny hits the table, your body now laying on his one, not a single breath of air to separate your bodies.
-His kisses trail down your neck, his moist lips leaving you warm all over, his right hand lifting one of your legs.
-It's time to take the matter in a more comfortable place…
-Bonus: How could you not expect Johnny to have mistletoe-themed boxers?
"Since you have been so loyal to the tradition it would be bad to break them now, no kitty?"
He says smirking, while you don't know if you wanna die or laugh at the situation.
Tomas Vrbada
-He falls for it! Congrats, it's not easy to surprise a ninja.
-Tomas knows what a mistletoe means, he remembers when he watched with his sister Christmas movies, disgust plastered on his face.
-Tomas feels giddy, a warmth that envelopes him completely.
-He feels like a fool, a dumb kid during Christmas, a giggle escapes his mouth "So, don't I get a kiss?" His arms are open.
-'It should be the other way around' you think, but it doesn't develop further, more excited to kiss your lover.
-He is so overjoyed his legs become jelly, Tomas could only dream of being so loved by someone.
-A simple gesture that brought him immense joy, fingers tapping on your back, playing your skin like a piano.
-"Why so happy Tomas? Did I do something funny?" You question, lips barely apart.
"You just reminded me of happy memories."
He replies, hands now steady on your hips, grey eyes twinkling with joy.
Mileena
-She…doesn't fall for it. Not because she knows what a mistletoe hanging from the ceiling means, but because of her observation skill.
-"Dear, why there is a plant on the ceiling?" Voice rasped, head bending slightly.
"Well, it's a long story…"
-You explain to her what it means, never looking at her in the eyes, worried she find the tradition (and you) stupid.
-She smiles, 'thank god' you think, her plush lips finding yours before you can finish the explanation, making you stutter. The kiss is fast and for sure not satisfying, leaving you aching for more.
-"Is this fine, dove?" her arms lay on your shoulders, keeping your bodies close, lips so close, but also so far away…
"I think I'll have to show you how to do this, Empress" You finally close the distance, courage finally sparked your soul.
Mileena grunts, a shiver runs down her spine thanks to her fave honorific.
-You didn't exchange just one kiss that day.
Kuai Liang:
-He totally did notice the mistletoe but also doesn't know the meaning behind it so he just walks by.
-"Ah, mister! Stop right there" Index finger touching his chest, hidden by so many layers of clothing "It's time to pay up." one hand caresses his cheek, while the other glides in his onyx locks, smirk plastered on your face.
-But…he doesn't move? His brown eyes look at you questioning.
"So you don't know about the mistletoe tradition, mh baby?"
"Care to explain, fireball?" His eyebrows furrow, way more focused than he needs to be.
-And so you do, looking at his face getting softer and softer at each phrase, just to end up snickering, a familiar sparkle in his brown eyes.
-"You really find any occasion to get a kiss from me."
"Are you saying you'd rather not?" You pull away, watching him in fake annoyance, eyes glued to his to notice if he takes the bait.
-He does, a kiss fierce as he is, a kiss that leaves you breathless but that you wish it to be neverending.
-"Is this fine?" Kuai Liang asks, a hint of jolly in his voice.
"Yeah, but I think you should do that again, you know, just to be su-"
-You won't need to finish the phrase.
