"Look who finally joined" Haerin said with a smile, watching Yunhui walk towards their table with Jinah balanced on her lap

"Daddy" Jinah said happily, reaching towards her father who immediately extended his hands out to take her onto his lap

"Morning baby" he said with a loving smile, his yes softening at the little space buns on her head, knowing Yunhui took her time to do them

"She looks like Boo from Monsters Inc." Johnny said with a chuckle, smiling fondly at the girl

"She's so calm with everything, it was so easy to do her hair. This little menace doesn't even like it when I touch his head—see?" Yunhui exclaimed, as soon as Minhyuk avoided her hand on his head

"He doesn't have much of a problem when I do it though" Jaehyun said with a playful smirk, ruffling the boy's hair. Yunhui scoffed at his bond with Minhyuk that seemingly trumped her one.

Johnny looked towards Haerin for a second, only to see her looking back at him with the same knowing look, as they watched the other two adults playfully fight with each other over who their kids liked more, although it was quite obvious that the two kids loved the idea of them both being together.

"Should we get going?" Jaehyun asked

"Yes! I want to go on the dino—"

"Okay, okay...come on, let's go" Jaehyun said with a chuckle, taking Minhyuk with him to pay at the counter for breakfast, having his ear continuously talked off about dinosaurs

"So...did anything happen?" Haerin asked with a whisper and Yunhui shook her head, although the light shade of pink that was quick to cover her cheeks already answered the question fairly well for Haerin

"Oh my god! I need to do this" Jaehyun exclaimed like a kid as soon as he saw the hammer game, using his fast pass to skip the queue happily to be the next one to use it

"I feel like I have three kids with me today" Yunhui said with a chuckle, taking the two kids with her to follow him

"My last high score was like 900 something—"

"Oh shut up, that's impossible" Yunhui said and Jaehyun looked back at her with a taken back expression

"You don't think I'm strong?" He asked, raising an eyebrow

"Not strong enough for a 900 something, that's for sure" she said with a challenging smirk and his tongue ran against the inside of his cheek, hearing Johnny's snicker from beside him

"Jaehyun is strong mommy" Minhyuk said in his defence and Jaehyun rolled up the sleeves of his black sweater up to his elbows, grabbing the hammer

"You've got 5 seconds to take it back, Yunhui" he said, narrowing his eyes at her and she shrugged simply, not changing her opinion although her eyes peered through her sunglasses to watch him throw the hammer on his shoulder before turning back around to the machine. He let out a light groan as he slammed it against the weight pad, watching the measuring line raise up past the 900 mark.

Yunhui smirk, quickly turning on her heel as soon as she heard the buzzer, walking past Haerin and Johnny with a smirk

"Hah! I got 980–where did she go?" Jaehyun asked with a slight frown, turning back to see the one person he was trying to impress not there. Johnny and Haerin looked at each other quickly with a shrug. He quickly walked past them, his eyes landing on the figure who was slowly walking to a food stand

"I got 980, did you see?" He asked, catching up to her and she hummed

"I guess not" she said, turning her head around to him

"But—"

"Still think you're not strong" she said teasing him further and he scoffed, his competitiveness catching up to him. He quickly wrapped his arms around her body, making her squeal as he picked her up bridal style in the middle of the amusement park

"How about now?" He asked with a smirk

"Put me down!"

"Tell me I'm strong and I'll put you down" he laughed looking down at her face as she kicked her dangling legs

"This is so embarrassing—you're so strong Jae, your arms are massive and you're basically the Hulk—now put me down!" She said, hearing him laugh as he enjoyed her short lived torture—mainly because her heart was beating so fast it could kill her—before putting her down

"There, wasn't so hard was it?" He asked, watching her turn to face him with a flustered expression

"I hate you!" She said, pushing her strands of hair off her face as he stood looking down at her with a satisfied grin

"Aww, what are you gonna do about it sweetheart?" He asked, cocking his head to the side with a smirk

"Hey lovebirds!" Johnny's voice said, causing her to jump a little and step away from him and look towards the kids who jogged to catch up with them

"Me and Haerin are going to get some churros, we'll be back in 20" Johnny said quickly, chuckling as Haerin grabbed his arm to drag him away

"20 minutes for churros?" Jaehyun said, narrowing his eyes and looking towards Yunhui who rolled her eyes with a laugh

"Hey...atleast they're getting some action. Who are we to judge?" She said with a chuckle, pointing towards the photobooth in the distance

"Should we go take a few?" She asked with a smile and he nodded, grabbing the two kids along with him and following her lead

"Can we use a the puppy one?" Jinah asked, pointing to one of the filters on the screen and Jaehyun hummed

"Maybe next time, why don't we take proper ones today. For memories" Jaehyun said lifting her up onto his lap

"Everyone ready?" Yunhui asked, pressing the timer button

"I didn't say yes" Jaehyun said from beside her

"I wasn't going to wait anyway" she said playfully, leaning closer into his side to fit herself and Minhyuk into the frame as they heard a click

"Don't do that!" Yunhui laughed, feeling Jaehyun hold up a pair of bunny ears behind her head as the second click went off

"Come here" she said, poking her finger into his dimples for the third photo making his smile grow wider if that was even possible.

As the last click went off he turned towards her, seeing her get ready for a normal picture, and he was initially to do the same until his body wanted to work faster than his mind. And before he knew it, he was wrapping an arm around her shoulder, bringing her closer to him before placing a kiss against her cheek.
