"Seonghwa, look!" Hongjoong pointed at an ice cream shop located near the park they were currently walking through, "Let's go there."

Seonghwa nodded in agreement and the two proceeded to get their ice cream.

Hongjoong happily ate his ice cream as the two of them sat on a bench together. Seonghwa observed the smaller boy. He reminded Seonghwa of a child; he easily found happiness just from eating the frozen dessert.

"Cute.." he mumbled.

Hongjoong turned to him "What did you say?"

"I didn't say anything. You must be hearing things."

He was lying. Hongjoong clearly heard Seonghwa call him cute. His cheeks immediately turned red as realization hit him. Park Seonghwa had just called him cute.

"Are you okay?" Seonghwa asked as he moved closer to examine the boys face.

Hongjoong quickly scooted away and shook his head "I'm fine! Just.... cold."

"Then we should keep walking, you might warm up a bit."

The two walked together, being serenaded by the birds chirping and laughter of children playing. A small boy was chasing after one of his friends before he tripped and fell face first. Seonghwa immediately ran up to the him and helped up.

"Oh my gosh! Are you okay?!"

The boy just nodded, biting his lip trying hard not to cry. He tried to wipe the dirt of his face with his small hands.

Hongjoong knelt next to boy and pulled a napkin out of his coat pocket. He gently wiped the dirt off his face.

The other child came back after realizing that he was no longer being chased. "You were supposed to be chasing me Jeongin!"

The boy, Jeongin, reached out his hand and tapped his friend before running away giggling. "You have to chase me now, Dongpyo!!"

Hongjoong and Seonghwa watched in laughter as Dongpyo quickly chased after Jeongin.

"I think we should head home, the sun is starting to set." Seonghwa said looking up at the sky. "I'll walk you home."

"Okay." Hongjoong replied quietly.

Park Seonghwa was going to walk him home.
