It was humid. (YN) looked at her phone to see if Vin had messaged her. The last text she had recieved was from a few minutes earlier telling her to meet him at a park nearby.

(YN) had regretted not finishing her dinner as her stomach growled. She decided to stop at a convenience store on the way. She opened the door and heared the bell ding. She started to browse the shelves. She was looking for some beef jerky, one of her favourite snacks in Canada. She was having a hard time finding it so she asked the attendant.

The kid behind the counter looked to be her age. He was squat and chubby with thick glasses. "Do you sell beef jerky?"

The boy seemed very helpful, pointing her in the right direction. (YN) grabbed a container of it, she was used to seeing it in little bags. She also grabbed a can of beer from the fridge. She went to ring up her purchase when the boy asked her for ID. (YN) leaned over the counter, exposing her cleavage and asked as sweetly as she could, "I left it at home, can't you let it slide just this once..." she looked at his name tag, "Daniel?"

The boy turned beet red and stammered, "I-I'm sorry, but I might get in t-trouble."

(YN) sighed, defeatedly, "Ah well, it was worth a try. Just the jerky then." She paid and left, heading toward the park.

She arrived and sat at one of the benches, eating her beef jerky. She checked her phone and texted Vin [here where are you?]. Before she could read his response, (YN) heard some male voices coming from behind her. Suddenly she felt a hand on her shoulder.

"Hey cutie, want to hang out with us?" She turned to see a stranger, about her age. He was big, and accompanied by three other boys. They were all smoking, snickering, and cursing to each other.

"Sorry," (YN) replied, "I'm waiting for my boyfriend. He's running a little late." Hopefully that will make them leave. I don't want to deal with this right now. The girl smiled sweetly at them in an attempt to dissuade them. It apparently didn't help as the big guy grabbed her hair and pulled her head back. He was standing behind the bench, bending her neck backward so that he was looking right at her, above her.

"Don't be like that. We can have some fun before he gets here." The guy leaned in close for a spiderman style kiss, (YN) brought her head up quickly, smashing her forehead into his nose. He stumbled backwards, clutching his face, "You bitch, you broke my nose." The guys behind him were looking to step in, flicking their cigarettes away, trying to look menacing. (YN) stood up and turned to look at them, making sure the bench served as a wall. She couldn't believe what she saw.

Vin Jin had jumped in and started beating the shit out of the guys. He seemed like a monster, ruthless, like Gun. (YN) tried to step in because the way she saw it, this was like overkill. She didn't want to get into any trouble. The four men lay groaning on the ground. (YN) grabbed Vin's hand and urged him along, "That's enough, let's go."

As they put some distance between them, (YN) spoke, "Thank you for helping me, but I would have been fine alone." She realized she was still holding his hand. She pulled away blushing. If it wasn't so dark out she could have sworn he was too.

Vin tried to explain himself, "I've seen those guys causing trouble before. They're just some gangster wannabes who think they can get away with anything because their leader's big. If I would have met them in middle school..."

They continued their walk for a while, chatting idly.

"So why the architecture department?" Vin eventually asked.

(YN) replied, "Well I didn't really care which department I went in, but I'm pretty good with my hands. Had I known the class was full of weirdos maybe I would have joined vocal like you, I'm a decent singer."

Vin scoffed, "I can't stand that Vasco guy."

"He's alright," she replied, "He's just a retard." Maybe she could have come up with a better word. He was simple, sure, but 'retard' rolled off her tongue before she could stop herself.

They laughed together and continued chatting. They stopped at a bench on the riverside, "My feet are killing me, can we sit down for a bit, " (YN) groaned as she sat down. Vin sat beside her. He reached into his bag and pulled out two beers.

(YN)'s face lit up and Vin smiled. She told him, "I actually tried to buy some at the convenience store earlier, but I got ID'd." They opened their cans and took a sip.

(YN) rested her head on Vin's shoulder, "It's been so long since I've relaxed like this."

Vin wrapped his arm around the girl. They sipped and chatted some more. Eventually Vin's hand started to wander and felt up her breast. Maybe it was the beer, the fact that she was a little angry with Gun, or maybe that she hadn't had such a gentle touch like this before, but she let it happen. (YN) moaned softly into Vin's ear and kissed his neck lightly.

After a long while of kissing and touching (above the belt), they looked at each other huffing, teenage hormones out of control. "I think we should stop for today," Vin said. (YN) was a little disappointed but welcomed the easy out, should things go too far. She gave him one last peck on the cheek and he offered to walk her home.
