"Joy are you just going to stay home today?" Mom asked me, looking over my shoulder as I flipped through the TV channels.

"Yup. Don't have any plans." The light from my phone blinked and it was a text from Junhong.

"I'm picking you up in 10 minutes."

I got up from the couch and went to the stairs, "Actually I'm going out now." I called out to mom before running up to my room to quickly get dressed. I don't know what Junhong had in mind for today but he could have at least given me an hour notice, not 10 minutes!

After what happened at school the other day, I now know that he feels the same way. I pictured myself punching my fist into the air. Sometimes it feels like I just imagined everything though because it all happened out of nowhere. I was blushing to myself all last night when I replayed the scenario in my head about 20 times. We were so close to sharing our first kiss, I think. But then the janitor came and even though I was grateful someone opened the door for us, again, we were so close to sharing our first kiss.

I had no idea where I was going today so I just put on a pair of jeans and a jacket. I looked out of my window and saw Junhong's car pulling into the driveway.

I exited the house right when Junhong was getting out of his car. I smiled at him and waved.

"How did you already know I was here?" He asked.

"I saw you through the window."

He lightly chuckled and went around the car to open the passenger seat for me, "You're so eager to hang out with me, aren't you?"

I just smiled shyly and got into the car. Was I acting too eager? I didn't think so?

"I was just joking. Don't look so worried all the time." He commented. I should note not to make my expressions so obvious.

"Sorry." I mumbled. "So where are we going today?" Everything was going quite normally. I still feel butterflies from being around him, but at least now I'm not so insecure and I don't list the possible reasons as to why he doesn't like me.

"Well it's almost October so the amusement park opened their haunted houses today."

"Haunted houses?"

"Yeah." He grinned. "Do you like those?"

"Yeah, I went to some before. I think scary things are cool."

When we got to the amusement park, we lined up for the Haunted House. As the line was inching closer, the screams coming from inside the black abyss were more prominent. I clutched my purse and gulped. I do not like scary things ok. And I have never been to a haunted house before. I just went along with Junhong's plan because I'm dumb.

It was our turn to enter the haunted house. I crossed my arms and kept my eyes on the floor. It was so dark in there and to add on to my misery was scary music and faint flickering lights.

We walked in further and nothing has popped out yet. If someone tries to scare me and I end up accidentally punching them in the face, I hope I don't get sued. I turned a corner and a freakin zombie jumped out and I screamed and crouched down onto the floor. I hid my face in my knees and covered my ears so I wouldn't have to hear any blood curdling screams.

"Holy shit," I hear Junhong mutter. He knelt down beside me and placed his hand on my back, "What's wrong? I thought you were ok with coming here?"

I peaked out of my knees and saw Junhong trying to comfort me, "Yeah I know, I lied. I'm so scared right now. Don't make fun of me." I stood up and my eyes were still on the ground. From my peripherals I just saw another zombie run across the hall and I shut my eyes.
