As the four snow building princes set off to create another massive ball of snow; that they would be putting on top of their first one, Hongjoong decided otherwise, that what's a party without a little havoc waiting to take place.

So his plan was to jump into the giant snowball, causing it to get destroyed, well that's was his plan according to Seonghwa. On the contrary to his little prank on the younger princes, Seonghwa couldn't help but get a little anxious towards the other prince. His mind started feeding him all the possibilities of his plan going south, 'What if he jumps to hard and sprains an ankle?' 'What if the ball becomes ice solid and he slips?' 'Maybe the kids will hate him for destroying their work?'.

So many paths to failure yet only one way to find out if its true, holding on to the little bundle of hope that Seonghwa has for Hongjoong's plan to succeed and that no one gets injured or that no one leaves this party with hatred for the host prince. He could only cross his fingers and pray for the best to come.

Ready to execute his plan in destroying the youngers' build, he calls them to get their attention, making sure that he could see their faces on how they would react to their precious frosty friend going bye-bye.

“Ateez look here!”

The four princes looked over on who called them by their new name, which also got the attention of Yeosang and Jongho -  who were now creating their own snow fort's for protection since they were having a mini - snowball fight with just the two of them. As well garnered Seonghwa's attention, where he was now looking at the prince, with his eye's filled with both anxiousness and hope.

Jumping in the air and towards the snowball in front of him, Hongjoong landed squarely into the ball of snow, breaking the white sphere into several pieces of snow, which was now littered on the ground, from how it first started when the princes molded it with more snow.

Fortunately for Seonghwa's relief Hongjoong was fine and that he did not injured himself, but he can't say the same for the base of the snowman.

“Hongjoong hyung are you serious! We worked hard in creating that!”

“Yeah!, my thumb is cold, because apparently it has a hole on it.”

Trying to console the two youngest out of the four, San and Yunho couldn't help but stiffle a few giggles that escaped their mouth, but that wasn't the case for Yeosang and Jongho who was now laughing due to their hyung's silliness.

Seonghwa joining them to releasing a few chuckles here and there. Soon all of them we're now laughing, due to Hongjoong's antics.

“Sorry guys, but, you gotta admit it was fun.”

“Whatever makes you happy Joongie, now what do you guys say we go ice skating now, shall we?”

At the mention of the activity, the princes all ran towards where they placed their skating shoes, which was at the benches that was near the lake itself. Finished wearing his shoes, Yeosang checked the other's if any of them were ready to go on the ice, but he noticed that Jongho was having trouble tying his shoe laces.

“Let me help you out their buddy”

“No, it's okay I got this hyung”

Attempting to tie the two ribbons again, but he was met with another failure. Face deflating in sadness and frustration, Jongho looks up to meet his hyung's eyes, and sends him a silent message that he's given up and is asking for the older's assistance. Shaking his head and giggling at the youngest helpless self, Yeosang help's him once again to finally join the other's who are already gliding on the ice.

“What would you do without me?”

“Hey! I can do a lot of things without anyone's help, thank you very much”

“Uhuh, what ever you say”

Finally done tying the laces of the now sulking and pouting youngest, he grabs his hands and pull them both to the ice, where the others are.

“Mingi, you're cutting the blood flow of my arm with your grip, can't you loosen it a bit?”

“I can't Yunho, I-I'm scared I will f-fall”

“You won't fall. I'll hold your hands until you get the hang of balancing, how about that?”

“Okay I guess, but promise me you won't let me fall?”

“I promise I won't let you fall”

With the promise made, Yunho grabbed both of Mingi's hands and helped him balance on the slippery surface they were standing on.

In the meantime, the WooSan duo and the oldest duo were doing fine. Wooyoung and San were doing a competion on who could do the most spins, while Hongjoong and Seonghwa was taking it easy and was gracefully skating around each other -well Hongjoong was. Seonghwa was there admiring the young prince on how he looked so peaceful and let his figure skim across the ice.

'He looks so gorgeous' Seonghwa thought 'Wait, what am I thinking? Prince Park Seonghwa, pull yourself together!' Confused about his recent thoughts, he couldn't help but notice this weird feeling he was having. It wasn't a bad nor was it a good feeling.

Whatever he was feeling he decides to shrug that feeling thinking that it was not that important, and that maybe in the future he will know what the feeling was. But for now he's going to join Yunho in helping Mingi not fall butt first on the frozen ground.
