Back at school the next day, Mingyu was filled with anticipation. He spotted Wonwoo at the lockers, chatting with Jihoon and Seokmin. His heart raced as he approached them, a grin plastered across his face.

"Hey, guys!" he called out, feeling his confidence boost at the sight of Wonwoo.

"Hey, Mingyu!" Jihoon replied, grinning back.

Mingyu's eyes were focused on Wonwoo. "So, what's the plan for today? Are we still on for the arcade?"

"Absolutely! I can't wait," Wonwoo said, his enthusiasm matching Mingyu's.

As they talked, Mingyu felt a warmth spreading through him. It felt good to have a plan with Wonwoo, and he couldn't help but feel that they were getting closer with each passing day.

Their group of friends, including Seungkwan, Hansol, Jeonghan, and Seungcheol, continued to grow closer, each couple thriving in their own ways. The school atmosphere was filled with laughter and joy, and the bonds of friendship deepened.

Later that day, as they left school, Mingyu and Wonwoo walked side by side, their shoulders brushing against each other. Mingyu felt a rush of exhilaration each time their arms touched. It was electrifying, yet comforting.

"Do you want to grab some snacks before heading to the arcade?" Mingyu asked, his heart racing at the thought of spending even more time with Wonwoo.

"Sure! I'm always up for snacks," Wonwoo replied with a laugh.

As they strolled to the nearby convenience store, they chatted easily, sharing jokes and stories. Mingyu could feel the connection growing stronger, and he cherished every moment they spent together.

Arriving at the store, Mingyu grabbed some chips and a couple of drinks, while Wonwoo picked out some sweets. As they made their way to the counter, Mingyu hesitated for a moment, considering whether he should make a move.

When they paid and stepped outside, Mingyu glanced at Wonwoo, who was happily munching on a chocolate bar. "You know," he began, "I really enjoy these moments we're having."

Wonwoo looked up, his expression curious. "Really? I do too. It feels... special."

Mingyu's heart soared at his words. "I was wondering if... maybe you'd want to hang out more, like on weekends? Just the two of us?"

Wonwoo's eyes lit up. "I'd love that! I really enjoy spending time with you, Mingyu."

Mingyu couldn't help but smile, the weight of uncertainty lifting from his shoulders. "Great! Let's plan something fun."

As they walked toward the arcade, the laughter and chatter of their friends filled the air behind them. Mingyu felt excited for what the future held, knowing that he had someone special to share it with in Wonwoo.

The possibilities felt endless, and he couldn't wait to see where their journey would take them next.

As Mingyu and Wonwoo entered the arcade, the vibrant lights and cheerful sounds enveloped them. The excitement in the air was contagious, with groups of friends laughing and shouting as they played various games. Mingyu's heart raced in anticipation.

"Where do you want to start?" Mingyu asked, glancing around at the endless rows of games.

"Let's try the racing game!" Wonwoo suggested, pointing to a booth where players could compete in high-speed virtual races.

"Sounds like a plan!" Mingyu replied, leading the way. They settled into the racing seats, the vibrations of the game adding to the thrill. As they selected their cars, they playfully argued over which one was faster.
