      Johnny and Ten had ended up in a small coffee shop after walking around the city. The boys went up to the counter and ordered two lattes and croissants. Once they recieved their items, they walked towards a table and sat down.

      "I guess it'll just be the two of us for the rest of the day. My parents went out and said that they weren't coming back until the afternoon," Johnny told Ten. The other boy nodded and proceeded to drink his coffee.

      "Sounds good. Where ar-" Ten was cut off by his ringing phone. He took a look at it and saw that his friend, Jungwoo, was calling him.

     Hello?
     Hello! How are you?
     I'm alright. What about you?
     I'm veryyyy bored. The break barely started, but it feels so boring.
     Go to sleep then.
     I've already slept! I barely woke up like twenty minutes ago. Can we hang out?

      Ten's eyes widened and he looked over at Johnny. The other boy was just eating his croissant, unaware of Ten's inner conflict.

     Uhm, I can't really go out Jungwoo. I'm not home right now. I'm sorry.
     Luckyyy! Are you on a trip or something?
     Yeah, I promise that we'll hang out once I get back.
     You better hurry up then. Bye bye!

      The call ended and Ten put his phone down on the table.

      "Was that your friend?" Johnny asked. Ten nodded. They stayed quiet for a minute until Johnny spoke up again.

      "Why are you friends with Jaehyun?" he said as he looked at the smaller boy. Ten was surprised to hear what Johnny had just asked him. He looked up and shrugged.

      "He's a really nice guy, and he was the first person to talk to me at school," he replied. Johnny looked at him and rolled his eyes.

      "I fucking hate him," the tall boy stated.

      "Why?" Ten curiously asked. He glanced at Johnny and saw that looked a bit angry.

      "We used to be really close, but he started to ignore me one day. I don't know why, since he never explained," Johnny answered. Ten raised his eyebrows at this. He couldn't believe that a nice guy like Jaehyun would do something that mean. But then again, Jaehyun must've had his reasons.

      "Well, I'm done with my coffee," Ten said as he stood up to throw away his things. Johnny followed him and the two boys began to walk outside.

      "Have you ever been to an amusement park?" the tall boy asked.

      "Nope," Ten replied.

      "Ok then. We're going to one today," Johnny said as he took our his phone and ordered a driver.

      An hour later, the boys were at the top of a rollercoaster, waiting for it to finally drop. Ten had his eyes shut and was tightly clutching the metal pole in front of him. He didn't want to get on the ride, but Johnny had basically forced him to go. In a split second, the boy felt the fast wind blowing on his face. His adrenaline had increased and he felt himself getting light headed. All he could hear was himself screaming for it all to stop. Once the ride finally ended, Ten quickly got out of his seat and left the area. Johnny jogged in order to catch up to the other boy. He looked at Ten and saw that he looked very pale and that he was shaking.

      "You're such a pussy," Johnny said as he put his arm around Ten's shoulders. They began to walk towards a ferris wheel.

      "You're not scared of heights, are you?" the tall boy asked.

      "No," Ten replied. Both of them waited in line to get into the ride, and they finally got in after a while. The ride started to take off and the entire city came into view.

      "Woah... It looks so pretty," Ten was mesmerized by the scenery. The city lights were beginning to shine as the sun was barely dimming down.

      "Yeah," Johnny replied as he looked outside. He looked at Ten and saw that the boy was completely dazed. His eyes were sparkling, his mouth was slightly agape, and the wind had made his messy hair stick out in different directions. Johnny kept staring at the other boy a few seconds before finally looking away. The ride began to come back down and they had to get out. They walked around for another hour and then decided to leave.

     "Are you hungry?" Johnny asked. Ten nodded and the two boys began walking around. They found a pizza place nearby, so they went in.

      "A table for two please," the tall boy told the host. They worker led them to a booth and gave them menus. They looked over the menu and each ordered their own personal pizza and drinks. The waitress walked away with their orders, and the two boys were left alone.

      "Thanks for today. It was really fun," Ten said while smiling. Johnny quickly glanced up and looked back down.

      "Yeah. Sure," he said as he took out his phone. He scrolled through his social media for a few minutes, and then he got bored. He looked up and saw that Ten was just blankly staring at the table.

      "Why do you always zone out a lot?" Johnny asked. Ten looked at him and shrugged.

      "I don't know. I guess it's just a habit of mine," he answered. Both of the boys looked up when they saw the waitress place their food in front of them. They quickly began to eat, since they were very hungry. After a few minutes, they had completely finished their pizzas.

      "That was some good ass pizza," Johnny said as he wiped his mouth with a napkin. Ten agreed and the boys stayed silent for a minute.

      "It's already 9," Ten said as he looked at his phone. Johnny took out his phone and ordered a driver.

      "Let's wait outside," he said while standing up. Ten followed the tall boy outside, and they waited for their driver to take them to their hotel.
