SEVENTEEN | SICKFICS - HURTFICS I

Woozi | Stampede

Woozi, DK, Mingyu, and Hoshi settled into their seats at the baseball stadium, the excitement buzzing in the air.

"Did you guys see the lineup?" Mingyu asked, scanning the program. "I can't believe they're starting their ace pitcher!"

"Right? I hope he strikes out a lot of batters," Hoshi replied, grinning. "It'll be so satisfying to watch!"

DK leaned forward, his eyes sparkling. "I just want to see a home run. You know that moment when everyone goes wild? It's the ultimate rush!"

Woozi chuckled. "You're all so passionate. I'm just here for the snacks." He waved at a vendor. "Did someone say hot dogs?"

"Typical Woozi," Mingyu laughed. "But seriously, let's make a bet. If a home run happens, you have to buy us all snacks."

"Fine, but if it doesn't, you owe me!" Woozi shot back, smirking.

Hoshi clapped his hands. "Deal! Now let's see some baseball!"

As the game began, the crowd erupted with cheers and chants. The players took their positions, and the atmosphere was electric.

"Look, they're coming out!" DK shouted, pointing at the field. "I can feel it-this is going to be a good game."

Woozi leaned back, arms crossed. "I hope you're right. I need some entertainment to balance out my snack investment."

The first pitch was thrown, and the crowd held its breath. The batter swung and missed, and Hoshi laughed. "Not a great start for him, huh?"

"Give him a second!" Mingyu replied, grinning. "He'll warm up."

As the game progressed, the score was close. The tension built with each pitch. Suddenly, the home team's star player stepped up to the plate. Hoshi's eyes widened. "This is it! He's going to hit a home run!"

"I can feel it too!" DK added, practically bouncing in his seat.

The pitcher threw a fastball. The player swung, and the crack of the bat echoed through the stadium. Time seemed to slow as the ball soared into the sky.

"YES!" Mingyu yelled, jumping up. "It's going out!"

The crowd erupted as the ball sailed over the outfield fence. Woozi's jaw dropped. "Alright, I owe you guys snacks, but that was incredible!"

DK was on his feet, cheering. "That was amazing! What a hit!"

Hoshi turned to Woozi, grinning mischievously. "You better get us those snacks quick!"

"Fine, fine! I'll be right back," Woozi said, laughing as he headed for the concession stand.

Mingyu and DK kept cheering, while Hoshi leaned back, a satisfied smile on his face. "This was the best idea ever."

"Definitely," Mingyu replied. "We need to do this more often."

Woozi returned to their seats, balancing a tray loaded with hot dogs, popcorn, and drinks. He was still catching his breath from the crowd at the concession stand.

"Finally! I thought you got lost!" Hoshi exclaimed, reaching for a hot dog.

"Did you guys miss me that much?" Woozi teased, setting the snacks down. But before they could dig in, his phone buzzed.

"Wait, what's that?" DK asked, noticing Woozi's expression change.

Woozi frowned as he scrolled through social media. "Uh-oh. Looks like I might have a problem."

Mingyu leaned over, trying to get a glimpse. "What's going on?"

"There's a picture of me with some fans... and they posted it." Woozi sighed, his brow furrowing. "I told them not to share it right away. I didn't want a bunch of fans swarming here."
