[ Here's a fluff. Please accept and forgive my absence.. qwq ]

"Ahh. Here's your cocoa." Elton sighed contently as he sat next to (Y/n).

"Thank y-"

He sipped from his Styrofoam cup and hissed, interrupting her.

"Aye bundt mah thung!" He stuck it into the cold air as he pouted, making (Y/n) chuckle.

"Don't gulp it down like you do your Bang and maybe you won't burn your tongue." She gently nudged his shoulder as her gaze lifted to the ice rink.

"Heyy! That's awfully rood," he pouted at her again with a playful frown before smiling again at her nudge.

(Y/n) brought the cup to her lips and blew into it, hoping to cool the liquid.

Colby and Sam were wobbling like newborn baby giraffes as they skidded on the surface of the ice. Their laughter and soft yelling about "Don't make me fall!" filled the place.

"I can't believe you guys haven't been here in ages," she took a sip, burning her mouth as well. She waved her hand at her mouth and panted.

"HAH!" Elton roared then immediately regretted doing so after seeing her expression.
". . poor baby. ."

This only made (Y/n) pout more.

She leaned down and scooped up a handful of marshmallows from the small bag and catapulted them ono Elton's face.

He panicked for half a second before saving a few and tossing them into his mouth whilst laughing.

(Y/n) grumbled softly but smiled, rolling her eyes.

The group had only been here for twenty minutes and most of the members had fallen on their arses more than three times. It was a chilled building, with some benches, two concession stands on either side, and everything else needed for an ice skating rink.

(Y/n) and Elton were in charge of getting hot chocolate and snacks, if hungry. They had, of course, announced they'd gotten hot coco, but the boys responded with, "five more minutes!"

"Ahhh, here they come now." She smiled as Corey, Sam, and Colby made their way over.

"Heeyy– what? Hot coco with marshmallows? You guys are the best!" Sam smiled as he sat down beside Elton. He handed Sam a styrofoam cup, "it's hot."

"Well no shi-, Elton, it's hot coco," Corey laughed.

"Don't mind if I do," Sam grasped the cup and took a sip.

Colby sat next to (Y/n) and put his hands in his pockets, trying to warm them.

"Ya know what warms hands?" She began as she turned to Colby.

"Uhh–.. a lot.. of things?" He smiled as his cheeks were dusted with red.

"Hands. Wanna hold mine?" She tried to repress a laugh as she shifted her cup to her other hand.

"Yeah." Colby's cheeks reddened as he removed his hand from the pocket and intertwined their fingers.

"Ahg- your hands are colllddd-," she squeaked, gripping his hand.

"And yours are warrmmm," Colby mimicked her.

"Can I have some hot coco, though?"

"Of course!" (Y/n) looked to her side where the cups of hot coco sat in between Elton and her, panicked, then set her cup down nearest to her.

Her hand grasped a cup and gave it to Colby, who grateful took it and had a sip.

Now everyone was chatting and sipping their hot beverage.

"So." Colby rested his elbow on his knee, turned his head, and looked at (Y/n). He squeezed her hand.

"So?" She squeezed his hand back.

"Have you ever been ice skating before?"

"Mmm.. a few times? It was fake snow." She frowned at the memories.

"That's weird. But totally means we should go skate together?" Colby lifted his cup and looked around, as if his question wasn't that big of a deal.

(Y/n) was screaming internally. Some day, she might contain her inner fangirl, but today.. was not that day.

"Yeah!" She had finished her hot coco and was ready to bounce before..

Colby hissed, suddenly being jerked up caused some discomfort.

(Y/n) paused and looked him up and down. "What's wrong? Are you okay?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. I slept wrong last night, that's all." He tried to smile as he let go of her hand to rub his back.

"Ahh.. and all the falling on ice isn't helping.." she looked down and chewed her lip in thought. Colby threw his cup in the bin then reached for hers and tossed it in as well.

His eyebrows rose when he turned to her again, "what?"

"What about going to the arcade? We could win each other stuffed animals.~" She sang softly with a smile.

He stepped forward, held her hands and kissed the backs of her hands. "I would love to. But first, I really need to get out of these skates." He chuckled as she realized he'd still been wearing them.

She was far too flustered from the kind kisses to English properly.

"Yea- that'd.. be best," she felt her face warm as he gave her more hand squeezes and went to the desk to retrieve his shoes.

(Y/n) squealed I'm delight and patted her cheeks, replaying the scene in her head.

As the worker brought his shoes back, (Y/n) felt her phone vibrate and pulled it out to look at it.

Big Bro💕:
whatcha up to? ;)

She chuckled and turned to look at Elton; he just smiled then returned to chatting with the boys.

"All ready, now. Wanna go?"

"Yeah. We're going to the arcade if you dudes wanna join us in a bit." She added, talking to the group.

They shrugged and nodded as the love birds grasped each other's hand and made their way over.

"Claw machines are totally rigged."

"Totally."

They laughed together upon entering the arcade.

Within half an hour, they'd managed to get three stuffed animals, over two hundred tickets, and an odd looking mystery ball.

Haaiiii!! qwq  I have no excuses. Y'all know it's been crazy.

I've been dealing with a lot of mental health as of lately, upon exams, and moving. We're in the new house– and I love it.

I'm surprised at all the comments of you dudes wanting this to continue. But I will continue to update. Artist's block is frustrating but writer's block is horrid– to me, at-least.

And lastly– the majority of y'all are crackheads. Jfc, the c o m m e n t s alone are hilarious. 😂😂
