"Wow," Jinyoung smiled as we walked out of the movie theater, "That was a pretty good movie! I didn't know you had such good taste in movies!" I grinned, pointing at some posters hanging around the lobby, "We should watch one of those when they come out."

"Agreed," he said as he stuck his thumbs up, "Now where do you want to go?" I pursed my lips and thought for a while, "Well I always wanted to go to the arcade with Woojin-" I covered my mouth as a stole a glance at Jinyoung but he didn't seem uncomfortable with it.

"Then let's go!" he smirked as he pointed at me, "You will pay for lunch if I win most of the games and I will pay if I lose most of the games." I was about to complain to him that I'm not very good at games but he just ran out.

I slowly followed after him, although I knew if I didn't chase after him, he wouldn't enjoy that run so much. We ended up going to a small arcade nearby and quickly got ready to play.

"Racing games!" I smiled as I pointed to the machines nearby and sat down before Jinyoung could even reply. As soon as the game started, I raced off on the track. Flustered, Jinyoung tried to slow me down but in the end, I won.

"Wow, I don't even know the controls to driving," I laughed as Jinyoung pouted at me, shaking his head, "Come on. Let's play the dancing ones!" And so we did. That went horribly for me since I'm not really quick. The drum one was a wreck too since I didn't react fast enough.

"Zombie apocalypse," I said as I pointed at the machine with two toy guns clicked in its case, "It's a team one but we can count our own scores." I'm not a big fan of anything horror or thriller related but I could manage a game like that.

The two of us freaked out so many times that we could've died right at the beginning but we somehow made it halfway. Jinyoung ended up getting eaten up by a ton of zombies and so I continued before meeting the same fate.

"I won!" I smiled, jumping around a little. Jinyoung sighed and looked around, "Let's play the basketball one!" He wasn't in luck for he didn't know shooting hoops used to be my favorite past time (it's true but i'm a potato now so yeah)

"Hyerin!" he complained, "I'm supposed to be the man!" and so I let him pick the last two games in which I definitely lost. So we ended up going to a fusion restaurant Jinyoung wanted to try and the waiter asked us if we wanted the couple set. Oh god!

"Are you going to the party?" Jinyoung asked to break the awkward silence. I frowned and furrowed my eyebrows, "What party?"

"Did Woojin not tell you?" Jinyoung asked as he looked up at me, confused, "Yoojung's birthday party?"

"No," I shook my head, disappointed, "He didn't tell me about anything. When is it? And where?" Jinyoung took out his phone and scrolled through his calendar as I hold in a laughter, "You forgot already?"

"Um," he coughed lightly, "Just double checking. It's this Friday." My mouth made an o as I nodded, "Well I have rehearsal for my recital on Friday so I can't make it."

Jinyoung stuck his hand out and made an ok sign, "I'll tell her for you." When the food came, all I could think of was why Woojin hadn't told me about the party.

Jinyoung must've noticed how silent I had become so he spoke up, waving his hand in front ot my face, "Hey, you want to go visit our elementary school?"

I immediately lit up as I looked at him and nodded, "Sure! I would love to!" Jinyoung laughed as he excused himself to go pay.

We finished up at the restaurant and walked to the bus stop. We took bus 83 to the school and got off at the fourth stop. I sighed as I walked into the empty school grounds. Jinyoung followed as I walked into the school building.

The first place I went to was all my classrooms. I couldn't help but miss the life of being a kid. Jinyoung shuffled behind, gasping every time he remembered something that we did together when we were kids.

"Oh," I yelped as Jinyoung turned around to see what I was suddenly freaking out about. There was a familiar face. She smiled at me as I bowed, "Mrs. Park! Long time no see!"

"Yes, long time no see Hyerin!" she laughed as she walked over, "Are you two looking around for something? I think you should get the visitor pass from the office first."

"Don't worry," Jinyoung chuckled as he scratched the back of his nape, "We'll leave soon." The teacher nodded as she excused herself. I turned towards the door and skipped down the hallway as Jinyoung chased after me.

I walked out to the playground and ran to the swings before sitting down on the small plaything. Jinyoung laughed as he approached the swings and sat down in the one besides mine, "I feel like this will break."

"Yep," I giggled, "The swings are squeaking so hard as we sit down." For a moment we sat there listening to the swings creak. I pointed at the play structure across the black cement, "We used to play tag there a lot."

"Haha," he chuckled, squeezing his eyes shut, "You were so slow I could tag you at any time. But super sly too." I nodded but before I could continue the conversation, there was a loud shout, "Hey you two! No students allowed on the play structure!"

"Run," Jinyoung said as he jumped off the swing. I groaned as I followed and the two of us dashed off as the security guard tried to chase after us, shouting, "No trespassing! Nobody is allowed on the playground!"

"Whoops," I giggled as we ran, "I didn't know that." Soon after, we reached the outside of the campus and had lost the man behind us. I looked up at the school once again and sighed, "I wish I could be a kid again."

"Me too," Jinyoung smiled but when I open my mouth to say something else, it isn't my voice that comes out, "Me three." I turned to the voice to see Woojin, his arms crossed while his eyes glared at us. I couldn't make out how he was feeling but it looked like he was in a cruddy mood.

Even though I only went out with Jinyoung as friends, I couldn't help but suddenly feel super guilty of something.
