Today had been a pretty good day, we went to a nearby park which was luckily bare of trouble making children, (although we caused enough trouble just with the 14 of us) and we were planning on having a barbecue dinner before having a sleepover so we would be together before the final round of the competition tomorrow.

Soonyoung, whose broken arm was in an annoyingly bright yellow cast, had gone to dance to the SHINee song that was playing through Hansol's fancy speaker, but abruptly stopped after nearly all of us started yelling at him to stop before he did anymore damage and wasn't allowed to dance tomorrow.

All of us were yelling, except Seokmin.

Our dear friend Seokmin screeched at the top of his lungs after the rest of us stopped when Soonyoung went to move again, making many of us freak out and jump out of shock, myself included. Over where Jeonghan and Seungcheol were manning the barbecue, Jeonghan started to cackle and Seungcheol put a hand to his head, covering his eyes in embarrassment.

"Gēge, let's go to the playground so we can avoid Soonyoungie's hissy fit." There was a glint of mischief in Minghao's eyes as he whispered in my ear. I grinned at him and he crouched and waddled away. Me, being the extra being that I am, started rolling away, which attracted the attention of a few of our friends.

They, however, disregarded what I was doing because this was something that has become normal to everyone. I could feel the eyes of Jeonghan and Seungcheol on us as we moved away, but they didn't seem to care too much, Jeonghan only calling out and saying, "Don't go make out in the bushes children, that's unsafe."

This made Minghao stop abruptly and I didn't see that he was still until I had already knocked him over. Seungcheol burst out laughing and Jeonghan did the same. Minghao looked at me with a small glare. "We're not going to go make out in the bushes. If we wanted to make out we'd just do it in front of everyone." Jeonghan's horrified look in response to my statement made both Minghao and I laugh as we stood up.

"We're going to behave like five year olds again. Please call for us when everything is ready. Now, if you'd just excuse us." Minghao stated, tensing up as he spoke. I looked at him in suspicion and saw his cheeky smile too late. Once I realised what was happening, he had already tagged me and bolted off, beelining straight for the playground.

I could only look at our two oldest friends momentarily and notice that Jeonghan was about to laugh before I ran after Minghao, Jeonghan's laughter being loud enough for me to hear even as I was getting further away. Minghao reached the playground and instantly climbed up on to one of the platforms. As I reached the playground, he was still trying to figure out where to go from where he was.

He didn't even notice I was there until he had finally decided where to go and I was climbing up. "Fuck," he started shouting curses in Mandarin that really weren't appropriate to repeat as he tried to escape, but I was too fast. I grabbed him by the waist as he was trying to climb up on top of one of the tunnels and brought him close to me.

"Caught you baby~" I whispered in his ear and he pouted at me. "You always catch me Gēge, that's not fair." I smiled softly at him, even though he couldn't see it and because I'm a cheesy boyfriend, I responded, "If I don't always catch you I might lose you for good, my dear." (Catch me I'm crying y'all Junhao are precious)

"Ooh! Haohao! Let's play on the playground! They have one of those spinny things that make me feel like a figure skater!" I was excited and Minghao just wriggled around in my arms until he was facing me, raised an eyebrow, buried his face into my chest and then groaned in frustration, making me laugh.

He had always known that a dream I was never able to fulfil was being a figure skater. Little six year old me had seen the figure skating at the Winter Olympics and fell in love with the sport, but was never able to go to a lesson with everything that I was already doing.

I grabbed Minghao by the arm and dragged him across the wooden bridge on the playground and up to the tallest slide. "Sit down Xiao Hao Hao we're going down together." I told him, my eyes wide from excitement. "If I die..." his threat trailed off as he sat down and I sat behind him, grinning widely before I pushed us forward and down the slide.

We went down disappointingly slow at the start, however we started to speed up alarmingly fast when we got halfway down. Minghao didn't even get the chance to try to slow us down as we approached the end of the slide before we flew off it and landed flat on our asses.

"My ass hurts because of that." Minghao complained and I just laughed before standing up and going over to the spinny piece of equipment I was oh so excited about. "It's not my fault we ended up going too fast." I poked my tongue out at Minghao and started spinning on the thing, pulling my body in close towards the pole and laughing as the spinning got faster.

"You do know that it doesn't look like you're moving fast at all." Minghao informed me and I shushed him. "Just push me, Hao." I told him and he did exactly that. I was enjoying it, until it started feeling like it was spinning too fast and everything started to blur together. "Fuck! Haohao! Too fast!" (Oof out of context that dialogue is a bit... questionable)

At my shouting, Minghao abruptly stopped the spinning by grabbing on to my waist and one of the handles. Even though it had stopped, the world kept on spinning. Minghao helped me off the spinny thing so I didn't break a foot or something and then let go of me.

Bad idea.

I stumbled a few times before I fell over onto the semi soft floor and started laughing at myself in the daze that came with my dizziness. Minghao laughed my favourite laugh of his and my heart swelled with fondness for my boyfriend.

Minghao's laughter was interrupted by the loud laughter of Chan and Jeonghan. Embarrassment flooded my body as my cheeks flushed bright red. "Come on Minghao and loser, the food is ready." Jeonghan told us once he had recovered from laughing at me.

I pouted but once Minghao helped me up and kissed my cheek, a smile formed on my face as I took his hand in mine. Chan saw that and scrunched up his face, almost in disgust. "Ew. Couples." I couldn't help but laugh at the boy and he brightened when he realised that he had made me laugh.

Uuuuuuh how the fuck do I end a chapter again?!?

Sorry for taking practically a month to update I know I'm a trashy person.

I have a legitimate reason though, about three weeks ago, I dropped from the ATAR course to a general pathway and I somehow need to catch up on like 8 weeks of work for classes I've just changed into. I'm in all but two of my classes with at least one of my best friends so they're able to catch me up on stuff~

I've done the math and there's about two chapters left of this (but! the last chapter has a good and a bad ending, so there'll be two separate chapters for that, which may take a bit longer) before I'll start making special chapters and most of them are just adorable fluffy extras and at least three of them will make me cry from softness

School holidays start at the end of this week so hopefully I'll have at least one update in the next two weeks 😋😋

Goodnight y'all it's like 1am or something I have school tomorrow

(Also I forgot to mention... I have done a dance cover of Highlight,,, link to it is on my new twt account @simplicithui)
