How 21 Students Saved the World

19 - Horror Movie Cliches

Soonyoung was carrying Jihoon in his arms deep in the forest, trying to not make any sound in order to prevent any aliens finding out their location.

Jihoon really wanted to protest against being carried, but his ankle really did hurt and he knew that he wouldn't be able to walk, so he was stuck being helpless, just like always.

Plus, there was the fact that if they argued, aliens would come over and they would die. Which is supposed to be unfortunate.

"I think this is God telling us that we never should've majored in astrophysics," Jihoon said, looking around. (There's not much you can do while being carried by someone, after all.) "We should have done something boring like economics and be done with it."

"Man, fuck social studies," Soonyoung said, lifting Jihoon up higher. He was thankful to have done sports in high school. "No, maybe this is a sign saying that it was a good thing we took astrophysics."

Jihoon swung his foot a bit, being careful not to hit Soonyoung. "Still weird how we majored in the same thing despite not talking to each other for over six years."

Soonyoung shrugged. "Well, I don't blame you for unfriending me on facebook, I did become a jerk to you in high school," he said.

"I know it's not your fault, I was pretty boring back then, I guess- wait." Jihoon frowned, fully processing Soonyoung's words. "I unfriended you on Facebook?"

"Yeah, it's why we stopped talking, remember?" Soonyoung said. "And you're not boring, we talked about this."

Jihoon wanted to prove Soonyoung wrong about how boring he was, but he was still confused about the Facebook thing. "I never unfriended you on Facebook," he said. "You unfriended me. I was happy seeing your upcoming graduation and college plans with your friends, I always liked every post."

"Maybe Facebook glitched or something," Soonyoung said. "Or maybe I was hacked? I don't know, I would have never unfriended you on purpose," he said. "Only my mom has my Facebook password anyways-"

Soonyoung stopped walking abruptly, startling Jihoon. "Do you hear that?" he asked him.

Jihoon stared at his surroundings, despite it almost being dark and him not being able to fucking see. "I can't see anything nor can I hear anything," he said. "What do you hear?"

Soonyoung didn't say anything, straining to hear whatever sound he heard the first time again, so Jihoon tapped his arm. "Hoshi, put me down-"

"No," Soonyoung said, hugging Jihoon tighter to his chest. "I don't... I don't think it's safe here."

"Obviously not, there's fucking aliens infested here," Jihoon said. He sighed, going limp in Soonyoung's arms. "Well, clearly I'm not going to survive to have any bagel bite again.:

Soonyoung started walking a bit faster, hugging Jihoon tightly so as to not let go. "We have to get out of here," he said, dashing the opposite way from where they were going. "We need to leave-"

"KWON SOONYOUNG, IF YOU DON'T FUCKING PUT ME DOWN-" Jihoon yelled in English, trying to kick Soonyoung with his ankle (the unharmed one, he's not a masochist on purpose - he thinks). "I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU DON'T PUT ME DOWN-"

Jihoon felt Soonyoung's hand cover his mouth, and before he could react, he could hear some screeching sounds.

"I don't know if those are the aliens or the teenagers being really extra," Soonyoung said as he continued to speed walk away from there (he would have ran, but since he was carrying Jihoon, he had to be careful; if Soonyoung fell, they were both screwed.) "But that's our queue to leave."
