Shoutout to my sister for giving me this idea. She's a real one 🫡

The front gates of the amusement park was a welcoming sight, your heart thrumming with eagerness as you approached. Your date hadn't arrived yet, so you went ahead and purchased two passes for the day in preparation.

"Two tickets please." You spoke in a friendly manner to the man at the booth.
"Alrighty." He pulled out two paper tickets and gave you your total.
He was cute, you noted. His brown hair created small waves around his forehead and his smile alone could light up a room.
"I'm waiting on someone, is it okay if I sit here?" You gestured to the benches just behind the ticket booth.
"Of course."
You paid the admission and headed past the gate, seating yourself on the bench to wait for your date to show up.
Distant screams fueled by adrenaline rang out through the amusement park, various music from certain rides and games melted together in a cacophony of nonsense, coupled with the murmur of chattering visitors and squealing children. You couldn't wait to join in.

After about ten minutes, the ticket booth guy turned around to check on you, his mouth slightly downturned at the sight of you sitting alone.
"Is your friend still not here?" He asked.
"No." You responded, hoping you didn't sound as disappointed as you felt.
"Maybe they'll show up in a few minutes."
"Yeah. He's probably stuck in traffic or something." You excused your date's tardiness on something reasonable.

Ten minutes turned into fifteen and fifteen turned into twenty. At that point, you had resorted to playing on your phone. Ticket booth guy continued to check on you periodically, each time making you feel more pathetic.
"Excuse me."
You lifted your gaze to find the cute ticket guy leaning over the back of his booth.
"You think he'll show up?"
"I'm starting to doubt it." You sighed." I guess I got ditched."
"Oh." He frowned. "Were you going on a date?"
"I was supposed to be, yes."
"Listen," He paused to make sure there wasn't any customers that needed to be taken care of before continuing. "my shift ends in fifteen minutes. Can you wait a little while longer?"
"I can. Why though?"
"I was thinking I could hang out with you instead of that jerk that ditched you. How does that sound?" He asked, flashing a genuine smile. "I don't know how you'd feel spending time with a total stranger, but I'd hate to see you enjoying the park alone, or worse, going home."
"I'd like that." You were touched at his generous offer. "That's very kind of you."
"I'm Hoseok, by the way."
"Nice to meet you, Hoseok. I'm Y/n."
He repeated your name, deciding he liked the way it sounded rolling off his tongue. "I'll be with your shortly." He assured, turning back around to continue manning the booth.
It was just shy of fifteen minutes when Hoseok left the ticket booth, another employee taking his place.
"You ready?" He gestured.

"Where would you like to go on first?" He asked as you walked ahead.
"How about the bumper cars since they're right over there?"
"Bumper cars it is." He responded in a chipper tone, pulling you towards the ride.
You filed into line and stood with Hoseok for just a few minutes until it was your turn.
You hopped into a shimmery purple bumper car and buckled yourself in while Hoseok went for the red one. Your hands gripped the wheel, waiting patiently for the ride to begin. Once everyone was given the green light, you sped towards Hoseok, ramming into the side of his car, jostling his body.
"You're gonna regret that!" He called, driving after you.
You slammed on the gas and got away from him as fast as possible, dodging other drivers. Unfortunately your attempt was a failed one, your car jerking forward as Hoseok bumped the back. You cut your wheel sharply, turning around to seek revenge.
