Felix and Hyunjin walked hand in hand into the arcade, Felix's eyes growing wide at the large number of games they could play. 

Hyunjin smiled down at the boy, loving how excited he was. Felix happily led them inside to the front counter where they could get their game card. Deciding to follow the classic saying "go big or go home," Hyunjin purchased the largest and most expensive option so that they could play games for as long as they wanted. 

They quickly made their way around the arcade, playing games like Pac-man, air hockey, pin ball, and even a weird taxi driver game that Hyunjin was surprisingly good at. 

A/N: My friend and I went to an arcade yesterday and her favorite game with legit a game where you are a taxi driver... She beat me :| 

Hyunjin laughed softly at Felix dragged him towards the food court area. "I'm telling you! I could definitely be a taxi driver!" Hyunjin declared competitively. 

Felix rolled his eyes, "Hyunjin, you hit 62 people. And one of them was a police officer!" 

Hyunjin shrugged, "They were in my way." 

The shorter boy shook his head once more, however now focused on the large menu of ice cream flavors in front of him. 

Thinking back to that first time they hung out, Felix turned towards Hyunjin with an amused look on his face. "So, tell me Hyunjin," Felix started to speak, smiling brightly at the older boy beside him. "What flavor are you choosing today?" 

Hyunjin let out a small laugh as he remembered that day in the convenience store. "I was thinking about getting chocolate again, what about you?" 

Felix nodded his head softly, "You know, as appetizing as Tropical Pineapple Lemon Surprise sounds... I think I'm going to stick with Vanilla as well." 

Hyunjin smiled softly, pulling out his debit card as they finally reached the counter to order. He glanced down at his watch as Felix ordered his ice cream, realizing how long they had been at the arcade. 

As they got their ice cream and went to sit down, Hyunjin spoke up. "I know were doing this kind of backwards, but after we finish our ice cream do you want to head to dinner? There's a really good restaurant just 10 minutes away from here." 

Felix shoved a spoonful of ice cream into his mouth as he nodded his head happily.

Hyunjin led the younger boy up to the large entrance, however suddenly being stopped by a nervous looking Felix. 

Hyunjin turned around to face the younger boy, reaching up and crushing some of the hair out of his face as he asked, "What's wrong angel?" 

Felix bit his lip softly as he glanced inside the large restaurant. "Hyunjin, I think we're too under dressed. This place looks very fancy." 

Hyunjin smiled softly, leaning down and pecking the younger boy's forehead, "Don't worry, it'll be okay. Just wait and see." 

Felix teared his gaze away from the window, now looking up at Hyunjin with a small nod. 

Hyunjin grabbed the boy's hand, gently leading him inside and up to the host stand. "Hi, I have a reservation for 6:00 under the name Hwang." 

Felix looked over at Hyunjin, softly questioning, "Reservation?"

"Ah, right this way Mr. Hwang." The girl at the stand spoke calmly, motioning for the pair to follow her. 

Hyunjin glanced down at Felix with a smile before following after the girl, still holding onto Felix's hand.
