Our Girl Book 1 {Stray Kids Fanfiction}

Chapter 54: We Have a Mission

Lily hugged her knees and gazed over the ocean with her men gathered behind her.

"Beautiful." She softly stated as the sun peeked over the horizon.

"Yes, you are." Seungmin replied as he snuck a picture of her.

She looked back at him and playfully scoffed, "The sunrise, babe."

"What sunrise?" Seungmin replied, gazing lovingly into her eyes before turning to the others. "Any of you see a sunrise?"

They all shook their heads and shrugged their shoulders dramatically, sharing the same loving gaze with her.

"Nope."
"I don't see a sunrise."
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"I see something bright and beautiful, but it definitely isn't the non-existent sunrise you speak of." Leeknow replied with an oddly stern expression behind his smile.

Lily rolled her eyes at their antics and covered her face, embarrassingly, "Yall stop. I'm not-"

"Don't even finish that fucking sentence, princess." Changbin interrupted as he and the others glared at her with narrowed eyes.

"Yea, we're not doing that, ma'am. Turn around and watch the sun rise before you get in trouble for talking about our girl like that." Chan scolded.

"I thought yall didn't see a sunrise." She sarcastically taunted as she fixed her gaze back on the sun.

"Watch yourself, Kitten." Leeknow warned teasingly.

Unable to control her comebacks, she turned and replied, "Well, now which is it? Watch myself or watch the sunrise?"

Suddenly, before anyone else was able to reply, Seungmin linked his arms around her and dragged her into his lap. Holding her tightly against him, he rested his chin on her shoulder. "You're missing it, smartass. Hush and watch."

Normally, they wouldn't have tolerated her sarcasm. However, they were oddly amused by her wit. They unsuccessfully tried to hide their chuckles and smirks.

Lily conceited and sunk into his embrace. The feeling of his arms wrapped snuggly around her was the comfort she didn't know that she needed in that moment.

When the sun's complete shape was visible ahead of her, she quietly stood to her feet. She fixed her ponytail as she watched the waves roll across the sand while everyone else studied her. They could all feel that she was struggling with her emotions and wanted to do whatever they could to help her.

Suddenly, she spun around and squealed, "I have an idea!"

"Oh lord, this can't be good." Hyunjin whispered under his breath.

"What is it, sweet girl?" Leeknow asked as he slapped Hyunjin in the back of the head.

With an overwhelming amount of enthusiasm evident, she exclaimed. "Ok, We have a mission!"

The boys arched their brows in confusion and hesitantly glanced back and forth at each other.

"We go to the arcade. Play whatever games you want, but the first person to win 500 tickets gets to decide the punishment for the losers!" She bounced and clapped in excitement, hopeful that they'd accept her challenge.

They stared at her with amused expressions growing on their faces. She lit up even more when accepting smiles appeared on their faces.

"Well, if mission briefing is over, I suppose we should get moving." Chan said through his laughter as he stood to his feet, followed by the others.

The competitive energy was flowing as the group of nine scattered throughout the arcade. Their laughter and yelling had drawn the attention of onlookers, yet they were too engulfed in their own chaos to notice.

They were given cards to load their tickets instead of the paper strips she had expected. After a while, they would check their ticket balances after each game. The competition was growing intense as they took turns taking the lead. The final check revealed that Lily and Felix were the closest, so they played a two player game in which someone would be declared the winner.

Confident that he would win, Felix suggested his favorite shooting game to determine the winner.

"You're totally on. I'm gonna smoke your ass." She taunted, making the boys laugh, yet again at her extreme competitive behavior.

The group gathered around the two, cheering them on. It was the final seconds of the game, and the tension was high.

Suddenly Lily leaped from her seat. "Yes! In your face, freckle boy!" She screamed having made the final kill shot, winning the game.

Felix stared at the screen with his jaw dropped in shock. The others hugged her, gave her high fives, and congratulated her on her victory.

Felix stared at the group, then laughed. "I don't know why yall are excited. We all lost to her, so we're all fucking screwed."

The mood suddenly shifted when realization struck them.

"Fuck. What kind of torture does the princess have planned?" Changbin asked hesitantly.

The menacing expression that blanketed her face made them all nervous.

"Let's go cash these out and go to the mall." Lily instructed with a wink as she lead the pack toward the prize counter.

"Mommy, I want that one!" The little girl beside them at the counter squealed, pointing to the large stuffed rabbit hanging on the wall.

"Honey, you don't have enough for that one. It's 4000 tickets and you only have 325." The mother sympathetically responded.

Overhearing the conversation, Leeknow stepped up with all of the group's cards in his hand.

"Yes sir, how can I help you." The employee behind the counter asked.

"Can I get that one please." Leeknow replied as he pointed to the wall.

Lily's heart melted at the interaction that followed.

Leeknow took the rabbit from the clerk and walked to the little girl. He squatted in front of her with a bright smile stretching so wide, that his eyes were almost hidden. "Hi there, is this the rabbit that you wanted?" He asked with a soft tone.

The child's joyous expression radiated as she took the rabbit and hugged it tight. "Yes! I love it! Thank you!"

"You're very welcome. Now you have to give him a name." He instructed, fixing the bow around the rabbit's neck.

The girl place her finger on her chin and thought for a second. "I know! Leebit!" She shouted with excitement.

Leeknow chuckled and said, "I think that's a perfect name. Now take care of him and always be good and eat well for your mommy, ok?"

"I will, thank you, mister." She bowed. Her mother bowed as well, expressing her gratitude.

As the group walked away, Lily hugged Leeknow's arm and said, "That was probably the most attractive thing I've seen you do."

He threw his head back in laughter. "It's that simple, huh?"

She giggled and nodded while gazing at him with adoring eyes.

He reciprocated her expression as he wrapped his arm around her and kissed her forehead. When they exited the arcade he said, "So, what are we doing at the mall?"

The malicious expression returned to her face as she said, "I'm picking your outfits for the day. Credit card please, daddy." She said in a falsely innocent tone, dramatically holding out her hand to Chan.

"Oh shit."
