I flipped ahead a few pages to two photographs. They were a before and after of our haunted house experience. The first selfie was a nice one. Our smiles were big and happy. Of course, that didn't last long though. In the second selfie, (y/n) still looked the same, if not happier. I, on the other hand, was clinging onto their arm like my life depended on it. I could see the traces of tears that ran along my cheeks, but a smile was still on my face.
"C'mon Yongsun, I promise it'll be great!" (y/n) extended their hand to me.
My eyes moved from their eyes to their hand. I peeked past them to see the menacing horror house. If my years on this planet taught me anything, it's not a good idea to enter a scary, dark building that has the words "Death House" in big red text on the front.
"I don't know about this, (y/n). It doesn't look like the most inviting place in the world."
(y/n) looked into my eyes. "I'll keep you safe. Nothing bad will happen in there. I promise you. If anything happens, I'll be there."
"But it says Dea-" (y/n) cut me off my cupping my hands with theirs.
"There's no actual death in there. I promise everything will be fine."
The sincerity in (y/n)'s voice rung deep. It made me think for a moment. I guess I can get out of my comfort zone for a bit.
"Fine."
(y/n) gave me a soft smile before pulling me to the front of the building. Regret set in quickly as I heard an ear-piercing scream from inside. My grip on (y/n)'s hand grew tighter and they clearly noticed.
(y/n) pulled me closer. "Nothing bad is going to happen, alright?" Again with the soft voice. I felt my cheeks flush pink.
"You may enter." The man outside the building said to us. My heart immediately started beating out of my chest. This was a mistake and I know it.
My hands grew clammy as (y/n) led me into the haunted house. I just hoped they couldn't feel it with how tightly I gripped onto their hand.
It didn't take long for the first scare to come out. A menacing figure stepped out into a hallway (y/n) and I were walking through. They had a scary mask on and a large axe in hand, scraping along the cold floor. Just by looking at the figure, I felt a few tears build up under my eyelids. The sound of metal being dragged along the floor struck fear into my heart.
"We aren't scared of you, loser!" (y/n) shouted loudly.
(y/n) stood their ground as I shrunk behind them. While it was terrifying to see a hulking figure with an axe walking towards you, (y/n)'s comedic nature definitely helped with the situation. A few tears rolled down my squirrel cheeks, but a smile grew onto my lips.
"Come on, loser! I bet after I'm done with you, you'll go crying to your mom!" (y/n) dramatically pointed at the trudging figure like a lawyer in a movie.
The axe-wielding figure slowly approached us as they grunted with every step.
"Are you ready?" (y/n) asked me. I was still attached to their back and barely managed to nod.
(y/n) gave me a brief smirk before sprinting forward. With my hand in theirs, I was pulled along for the ride. I managed to keep my feet under me as we ran right past the figure. I felt the wind of it swiping at me across my arm, causing a rush of adrenaline to pump through my body.
The two of us eventually reached the end of the hall. (y/n) pushed the door open and we quickly entered the next room. The door shut behind us, meaning we were safe for the time being.
