"come on hannie, just reach a bit more!"

a tiny minho cheered from the bottom of the tree- watching his best friend try to pick peaches from the tree.

"hyung i'm scared.." the child called down, clinging to a branch and hugging it afraid.

"if you fall i'll catch you! you can do it!" minho encouraged jisung, making the younger shakily nod his head.

"alright i can do it.." jisung shakily reached his hand outward, letting go of the branch he was hugging onto.

using his small arm he reached out further, having minho cheer him on from the ground.

"you're so close hannie!" minho encouraged, seeing jisung's finger brush again the fruit- close to grabbing it.

whimpering a bit because his foot slipped a little, he finally reached and grabbed the plump peach and picked it off the branch.

gasping and breaking out into a big smile, jisung waved the peach to show minho.

"hyung i got it! i picked it!" jisung cheered happily, and minho jumped from the ground and clapped his hands.

"see? i told you that you can do it!"

"i did it! i grabbed it!-"

being too caught up on the fact that he was able to do it- jisung's excitement made the tree wobble and his foot slip from where he was standing.

the younger boy gasped and tried to grab onto anything that would prevent him from falling, but he couldn't.

jisung had fallen from the tree that afternoon, when he went peach picking with the boy who snuck out of his house for him.

~~~

there were people around campus preparing the activities.

the boys had all gotten ready and gone out to view the attractions, there were some food booths and booths for activities too.

however the elephant in the room was the giant haunted house, which scared the crap out of jisung.

as they went to some of the booths, jisung grabbed minho and spoke to him.

"i don't think i can do this," he nervously said, turning back around to view the horrifying house.

"yes you can, you got this alright?" minho gently put his hand on jisung's shoulder.

"i'm too scared of it- remember how i used to react during scary movie night? well this is a real life scary movie! i can't do it." jisung whined, tugging on minho's arm.

"if you really don't want to then you don't have to, don't force yourself or anything." minho said warmly, and jisung realized that he probably looked like a big baby.

jisung gulped and looked back, before shaking his head and sighing. "no i can do it." he felt a wave of determination wash over him.

soon the time to go in occurred, and jisung asked felix to go in with him.

"can you go in with me?" he asked, trying to mask how freaked out he was by all the fake blood in front of the house.

"s-sure! yeah seems.. fun." there was no hiding how freaked out felix was.

the one to shove them inside was chan- giving jisung a thumbs up as he giggled and ran back to the others.

the cold darkness surrounded felix and jisung immediately at the start, making the two boys yelp and hold onto each other.
