As promised to Silver I gave him a tour in the school and on my treat we ate foods in stall then watched the puppet show. Yet my mind is not fully invested in our time.

It drifts away somewhere back to Jace blank expression before she stood up to grabbed Jade hands and spent 7 minutes in the room.

"We can still visit the zoo if you're still up for that" Silver interrupted those thoughts.

I lightly scratched my nose in guilt of drifting away "But it's almost midnight" stating the obvious

He shrugged but smiling "We can always bend the rules" the suggestion is twinkling in his grey eyes "Then ghost hunting in that place is like hitting a bird with one stone"

I love distraction, anything that will make me palpitate in nervous, my way of reminder that I'm still fucking alive "Only if I'm the cameraman"

"Sounds even better" he extend his hand to me, I look at it, smiled then grabbing, he pulled me up to stand then walked in his car.

It was an hour drive from the town. The car ride is fitting to this troubled thoughts while enjoying the cold wind brushing in my cheeks as I leaned my head out the window and letting it fly my hair.

Midnight drive when you have lot of things in mind to sort out helps so much better. Just exactly what I needed, to be away and give it a break.

We arrived in the zoo but had to parked the car somewhere safe and far. Of course it was a gated with one guard slouching, his head keeps on falling down until he no longer bare it. And that's are cue to silently climbed over the fence. This isn't the first time breaking in, we done this couple of times in private park, 56th corporate building to watch the city views and closed amusement park to play tag.

The place is kind of dim with only the lamppost to every corner of the cages and long pathway.

"Why is this giving me the feeling of 'Deliver us from evil' zoo scene where we will see a woman throwing her kinds in Lion cage and the possession starts there" I say to Silver walking next to me "and I like that idea"

He chuckled at me but the idea of something paranormal will appear is very liking. I snatched the phone to his as he start filming my face "Remember I'm the cameraman" I said to him and giving back his phone and used mine.

The first cage is the birds that's now making loud noises because of our sudden presence. Both of us flinched but laugh it out eventually for seeing our off guard reactions and had it filmed.

Silver grabbed my hand as we decided to run before the guards wakes up. We laughed all the way of running and seeing other cages, like the scary snakes, lion and crocodile.

"Wait, stop!" I say as I'm gasping for air because we've been running for 10 minutes now and remembering how I hate cardio and being sweaty "I thought this is going to be a chill walking in the zoo" I said between gasping for more air to enter my lungs.

"Riri look" Silver points the big dome not far from us "Wanna check if fish sleeps at night?"

I rolled my eyes and playfully push his chest and walk towards it, still catching my breathing thou.

We entered inside the massive dome aquarium. First step and it's already breathtaking "Wow" I muttered while wandering in the dome watching different species of fish swimming to different directions.

I spin around as they're everywhere, on top and both our sides and to everywhere we look. The blue lights and this night is giving the aquarium a whole new vibe. So this is how it feels huh? To be inside their world...it's so fascinating and the feeling is magical.

"It's beautiful" then look to Silver who's eyes were on me.

"She is" He muttered, both his hand behind his back.

I heard it but pretend not to. I don't want to ruin our friendship, I like Silver and I'm not going to lose him. Friends breakup but they make up but when your relationship break, it's hard to repair.

My phone vibrates inside my sweatpants pocket, I teared off my gaze to his and check the notification.

It's our group message.

Evee: Wow! 1:28am and looks who's on a date this hour!

She sent a screenshot of Silver instagram account. He posted a photo taken a minute ago. It's me spinning around while looking to the top and every sides like a fascinated kid.

Evee: I guess someone literally found her Noah Flynn :D
Stephy: Shut up Eve let me sleep stop tagging me in your tweets :I

I look to Silver, he's walking ahead with his both hand in his pocket while watching the school of fish swimming away.

"Hey you two!" I blocked my hand to my face when a blinding lights is directed to me.

Fuck we're busted!

****

"Hello Harley Quinn and Joker" Ross greets sarcastically the moment we step out from Silver car.

And Jace-She's standing behind of fuming Ross without much expression and just staring unreadable.

"Sorry Ross. But don't worry, I settled everything to the guard, it's all my fault it wasn't Riri idea" Silver taking all the blame to his.

Ross folded his arms trying to look tough over Silver "You're lucky nothing bad happened to my sister or you have to face my rage and trust me you don't wanna go there" Ugh. Ross is such a baby and it is all words anyways.

He can't even kill bug, he's always the first one to runaway.

"Sorry, that won't happen again" Silver sincerely apologized.

But being Ross he just can't keep his mouth shut "dating my sister is fine. But not like 'let's date, wanna break in to the bank and rob them?' Type of shit dude. That's not cool" the way I'm squinting my eyes over Ross after hearing his girls rants wants me to sewed his lip together "And riri? She's our Reeses" he said that pointing to my face.

"Okay that's enough" I cut him then shifted to Silver "Thanks for-"

"For almost giving us a heart attack when the police called" Ross butted in and I gave him a deadly glare to shut up "You know what? From now on if you're taking my sister to some weird date? It's either me or Jace coming with you two"

My jaw dropped in his suggestion then glanced to Jace but she's still keeping that nonchalant "That's not fair! I didn't ask to be there while you're doing deeds with Cassy and not nagging Jace when she's probably eating Jades face in that stupid kissing booth room!" the last sentences blurted out spontaneously and either me, I wasn't expecting that.

Heaving a sighed after what I just said, I pressed my lip into thin line before shifting to Silver "Goodnight Silver"

Then walked inside without looking back to any of them.
