"Oh, over here!" Sapnap exclaimed.

Sap ran to a lit-up, vine-filled archway that was glimmering in the darkness of the late evening.

"Wait, this is actually such a cool spot!" Tina said.

She got her phone out of her pocket, cleaning the back camera off with the end of her sleeve to make sure the pictures turned out crystal clear.

"Okayyy...scooch in closer, guys! Scooch, scooch." Tina said, narrowing her eyes to envision the picture setup.

Sapnap moved behind George and Karl so they could all fit in the frame, poking his head out between their two heads.

Karl turned his head to the side briefly, eyeing George from the corner of his vision. Karl then sneakily lifted his leg up in the air, pressing it up against George's leg.

George looked down, attempting to gauge what Karl was trying to accomplish.

"Hold my leg up." Karl said, grinning at George.

George shook his head, smiling now too. Karl was ridiculous- of course he'd want George to hold his leg up like in a classic wedding picture.

But that felt weird, especially since they had just met, and there would be photographic evidence of this moment on the internet probably for forever.

"I'm not doing that." George said light-heartedly, but gave Karl serious eyes.

Sapnap scoffed behind them, and George could hear Sap's attitude and frustration with that one sound.

"Come onnnn, bro. It's freezing out, let's take these pictures." Sapnap said impatiently.

Sap picked one foot up at a time off the ground, shaking them in the air one after another in attempt to get more blood flowing to his toes.

Very hesitantly, in slow and cautious movements, George placed his hand on Karl's inner thigh, and held Karl's leg up for the picture.

George made sure not to get too close, staying away from the inner seam of Karl's jeans and holding his hand more towards Karl's knee.

George took his hand away right when Tina said:

"I think I got it!"

After the trio took a few more pictures, they decided it was way too freezing out for the photoshoot to go on any longer.

They walked for a few minutes across the windy London streets, stumbling upon a high-end clothing store that seemed to be almost deserted.

"Let's check this place out." Karl suggested, and Tina, George, and Sap all followed Karl's lead.

Instantly Sapnap, Karl, and George began to cause a scene, touching every expensive piece of jewelry in sight and tossing bedazzled handbags at each other's faces.

Eventually two of the employees came over and spoke to them, telling them off for fooling around in the store.

"If you continue to disrespect the merchandise, we're going to have to ask you to leave." The employee said, giving the boys a condescending stare.
