After Donghyuck paid for the food, the two of them finally left the restaurant full and contented. Renjun's stomach got bloated but he's happy about it because he got to eat healthy and delicious food.
"So, where do you want to go next?" Donghyuck asks as they are about to cross the road.
"Let's go to an arcade!" Renjun responds, "I haven't been able to go there in a while." he grins. "Well, if you like, of course."
Donghyuck nods, "Of course! Let's go to an arcade. Do you want to take a taxi or walk again?"
Renjun pouts, "Let's take a taxi. I'm too full to walk."
"Right. Me, too." Donghyuck laughs.
They walk over to the other side of the road to wait for a taxi. When they get there, Renjun pulls out his phone and clicks on the camera.
"Haechan."
Donghyuck widen his eyes and turns to Renjun. "Y-you called me Haechan... I like the way you say it."
Renjun giggles. "I'm taking a photo of you. For my wallpaper."
Donghyuck beams with pleasure, posing with a peace sign. Renjun presses the capture button and it creates a clicking sound. Donghyuck shifts to another pose and Renjun clicks the button again. He keeps on capturing photos as Donghyuck changes his poses every five seconds.
"Do I look good?" Donghyuck asks, peaking at the older's phone.
"Yes," Renjun replies. "I like this one the most." He shows a picture of Donghyuck grinning widely, his hands on top of his head forming bear ears. "You look like a bear—a bear with four moles on his cheek." He fondly smiles at Donghyuck.
Donghyuck feels flustered about Renjun noticing his moles on his cheek. He thinks they're his unique part of his appearance, and he's glad the moles are being acknowledged.
"I like you so much."
"Oh, Haechan-ah!" Renjun laughs sweetly. "I'm changing my wallpaper now." Donghyuck happily shakes his head up and down. Renjun quickly changes his wallpaper to that photo then happily shows it to Donghyuck. "Here!"
"You have the best wallpaper ever."
"You bet I have." Renjun winks and Donghyuck laughs, poking the older's nose.
"Taxi?"
They both turn their heads to the owner's voice and they see a taxi stopped in front of them.
"Yes, please." Donghyuck walk to the back seat door. He opens it and gestures Renjun to get in first to which he complies. Afterwards, Donghyuck follows inside and sits comfortably next to the older.
"Where do you go?" asks the driver.
"To the [x] mall," Donghyuck replies.
×××
Renjun excitedly skips as they enter the mall. Donghyuck could only laugh lovingly at his date's cuteness. He walks behind him as he lets the older lead the way.
"Careful not to bump into people." Donghyuck tells him as if Renjun is a kid.
"Okay!" Renjun exclaims, giggling. "Hurry up, Haechannie!"
Donghyuck catches up and walks by Renjun's side and pulls his waist closer to him. The latter blushes by the gesture and looks up at him, flashing a fond smile. "Do you like it when I call you Haechannie?"
Donghyuck licks his lips and nods. "I like it, so much."
"Haechannie." Renjun giggles. "Cute."
"What's with you?" Donghyuck creases his forehead, smiling.
"Nothing!" Renjun pouts, "I just like your nickname. I like the way my lips say it smoothly. It's really satisfying."
Donghyuck lets out a delighted laugh and sighs dreamily. "I really like you."
"I know! You've told me many times."
"I thought you want to go to an arcade?"
"Yeah!" Renjun pulls Donghyuck's hand from his waist and holds it. He then runs, dragging Donghyuck with him. The latter's shocked but runs with Renjun anyway.
They go straight to the counter as soon as they arrive at the arcade. Renjun offers to pay for the tokens since Donghyuck already paid for their lunch.
"Hi, two packs of tokens, please." Renjun slides 10 dollars on the counter. The lady at the counter grabs the money and he then receives two packs of tokens and a change of 2 dollars.
He approaches Donghyuck and gives him a pack of tokens. "Here!"
"What do you wanna play first?"
"Let's go to the claw machines and see if we can get any stuffed toys." Renjun grins.
Donghyuck nods and pulls Renjun by the waist. "Anything for you."
Renjun immediately runs to one of the claw machines as soon as they arrive at the area, leaving Donghyuck following him behind.
"Haechan, Haechannie! Come here!" Renjun flails his hands, gesturing the younger to come over. "Get me the My Melody plushie, please."
Donghyuck pouts when he gets there. "I'm not really good at this. I always fail when I play this."
"Just try, please. Please!"
He sighs, "Fine." He then takes out a token from the small pouch. "What do I receive if I manage to get you the plushie?"
"Mhm," Renjun purses his lips, "what do you want?"
"A kiss."
Renjun blushes. "If you manage to get it, I'd give you a... hug."
"But I want a kiss."
"On the cheek?"
Donghyuck smirks slightly, "On the lips."
"Shut up!" Renjun slaps the younger's arm and Donghyuck hisses in pain.
"Ouch!"
Renjun laughs and carress his arm, "Sorry! Fine, I'll give you a kiss."
Donghyuck grins widely and turns to the machine. "You hear that Melody? You better cling tightly to the crane, get it?" Renjun laughs at that. Donghyuck finally inserts a token and moves the joystick.
The button is pushed and the crane moves down to get the My Melody plushie. The two of them watch in anticipation. However, unfortunately, the toy didn't cling tightly to the crane like Donghyuck hoped, so the two just sigh in disappointment.
"Ugh! No way! Let me try again." Donghyuck inserts another token and tries for another round.
But then again, the crane didn't get the My Melody plushie.
"No!"
Donghyuck tries again and again and again.
But unfortunately for him, today isn't his lucky day.
"It's fine, Donghyuck-ah. Let's go to another game."
Donghyuck pouts, "But Renjunnie, I thought you want it?"
"You can't even get it."
"How about you try?"
"No, I can't."
"Come on!"
Renjun sighs and takes out a token from his small pouch. He inserts it and moves the joystick to his desired plushie.
He then closes his eyes after he pushes the button. Donghyuck watches nervously. The crane gets the toy and moves towards the squared hole.
"Oh my God!" Donghyuck reacts, and Renjun shakes his head, his eyes still closed. "Renjun-ah, I think you're gonna get—nevermind! The crane lets go of the toy before it even reaches the hole."
Renjun opens his eyes and sighs. "So unlucky."
"Even if I don't get a kiss today, I'm still happy 'cause I get to date you, Renjun-ah."
"Aww." Renjun suddenly hugs him, causing Donghyuck to froze in his spot. "You still did great, Haechannie. Watching you being so desperate to get the toy, I think you still deserve the kiss."
"Shut up." Donghyuck mutters, blushing.
Renjun pulls away and pokes the younger's nose. "But later." He winks. "Come on! Let's go to another game."
Donghyuck nods eagerly, "Okay!"
×××
Happily, they step out of the mall, holding each other's hands. Renjun looks up at Donghyuck and smiles fondly.
"Thank you so much for today, handsome."
Donghyuck chuckles upon being called handsome. "It's my pleasure, pretty." He smiles back just as fondly. "Shall we go home now?"
Renjun nods, "Yeah. I'm kinda exhausted now and my feet hurt."
"Yeah, me too. Also, do you want to have a dinner with me at my apartment? I'll cook."
"Sure! I would like that."
Donghyuck stares at his date's pretty face. "Best date I've ever had."
"You're my first date."
They smile at each other before walking to the bus stop.
