Monday;

Everyone was in high spirits, excited for the day. "I haven't been to Lotte world in ages." Kai said from next to Xiumin. Xiumin nodded. "Yeah, now if only the members would arrive." He said pointedly. They were all waiting on Tao, Kris, Suho and Luhan. "There's only 10 minutes left before we have to go, should I go check on them?" Chanyeol asked, shuffling from foot to foot in impatience. "Everyone get one person. I'll get Luhan." Xiumin suggested. "Of course you'll be with Luhan." Baekhyun said cheekily as he headed to Tao's room. Xiumin smacked the boy playfully, going to Sehun and Luhan's shared room. 

He knocked the door. "Luhan, you coming?" He called out. He heard a muffled yell and a thud. "Luhan?" He asked again. There was no response and Xiumin decided to open the door. He was met with the sight of Luhan on the floor, his skinny jeans half on, a woolen hat in his mouth. Xiumin didn't know whether to laugh or sigh. "What do I do with you?" He asked, his voice amused. Luhan glanced up, his hair sticking up making him look like a scientist. "Help me." The younger boy pleaded. Laughing, Xiumin reached down and helped the boy up. Luhan used him for balance as pulled his pants up, his head falling against Xiumin's shoulder as he finally got them to his waist. The boy sighed in relief. "Thanks." He breathed out. "Come on, everyone's waiting." Xiumin said, tugging the boy's arm towards the direction of the door. "Ah, wait! I need to do my hair." Luhan said quickly as he ran to the mirror, frantically combing through his hair in an attempt to flatten it. 

Xiumin waited, leaning against the door. When Luhan was done making weird (but cute) faces at the mirror and had his hat on his head, the boy finally turned to Xiumin. "Let's go for our date." Luhan said, his voice only half-joking. Xiumin laughed and grabbed the back of the boy's head, pulling him down for a quick kiss. He was pleased to see the slightly pink tint in Luhan's cheek when he let go. 

Downstairs, the managers had arrived and were talking to Suho, who had finally gotten ready. The managers glanced up when Luhan and Xiumin appeared. "Oh, you're here. Is that everyone then?" Chanwan asked. "Tao is still left." Kris observed quickly. "Baekhyun, Chanyeol and Chen went to get them." Lay mentioned casually. "Ah. So that's why it's taking ages." D.O. said, his face grimacing slightly. "What do you mean?" Joongchan, the other manager, asked. "Uh, they're the three mischievious ones, I guess." Kai said, mumbling the answer as he ate chicken (where the heck did he get that from?). "Oh. So they're the ones we have to watch out for?" Chanwan asked, a grin on his face. "There's no point in watching them, they'll escape and do something stupid anyway." Sehun said bluntly. Suho shifted uncomfortably. "You guys are making them seem like animals; they're not that bad." He said, his voice slightly defensive as he turned to the managers. 

"He's just saying that because Suho hyung fancies himself the mother of this group and considers us his kids." Luhan mentioned cheekily. Suho flushed but was saved from having to reply when the beagle line appeared at the top of the stairs along with Tao. Tao looked furious and stomped down the stairs, probably about to yell about what the 3 mouseketters had done this time. He froze when he saw the manager, his angry expression fading into a nervous one. "Sorry I'm late." Tao mumbled, bowing his head in apology. "It's fine." Chanwan replied easily. 

"Should we go then?" Joongchan seemed to be a bit more impatient as he glanced at his watch. "Let's go."

They were separated into two, EXO-K and EXO-M so they could go in the cars. Chanwan was in charge of EXO-K and Joongchan of EXO-M. The car ride was apparently going to take an hour so everyone settled in with their earphones. Luhan and Xiumin were checking up on the scores of the Manchester United match that was currently going on when Lay gasped. "Dammit! I forgot my wallet!" The boy whined. Xiumin rolled his eyes. "Of course you would, you're Zhang Yixing." Xiumin commented dryly. Chen and Luhan just laughed. Kris, from the front seat, turned to see what was going on, taking out an earbud. "What happened?" He asked curiously. "Yixing forgot his wallet again." Luhan informed. Kris glanced at the boy in disgust and shock. "Again? What is wrong with you?" Kris asked, frustration in his voice. 

"I don't know! I could have swore that I had it with me!" Lay said helplessly. Tao shook his head. "That's what you always say." He said, irritation in his voice. Kris turned back around. "I'm not buying you food this time." The leader said simply before putting his earbuds in again. "Me neither." Tao added quickly. Lay turned to him. "It's not like you ever do anyway." He said to the younger boy. Tao nodded. "True." He seemed oddly proud about that fact. 

"Chenchen?" Lay pleaded. Chen shook his head. "No way, you already owe me from the freaking third episode of Showtime." Chen said. "Seriously?" Xiumin asked. That was ages ago. "I know right?" Chen said, nodding his head. "I'll pay you back! Seriously!" Lay said. Chen shook his head. Lay sighed before turning to Luhan. "Lu-ge?" He asked. Luhan stiffened from next to him. "Don't call me that." Luhan said. Lay cocked his head. "But Minseok hyung calls you that all the time." Lay commented, confusion all over his face. "Yeah, because he's Minseok." Luhan whispered, glancing at the manager discreetly. Xiumin didn't know whether to feel touched or awkward. Unfortunately though, he was feeling both. He smacked Luhan's arm halfheartedly. "Don't be like that." He mumbled. Luhan turned to him. "But baozi, that nickname can only be used by you!" Luhan said, a pout on his life. 

Why did he have to be so goddamn adorable? Xiumin swallowed nervously. He was about to say something when Kris spoke up, his head turned to the manager. "And those are the two oldest members of the group. That's baozi; steamed buns in Mandarin and the other's manly, as you can see from his koala hat and childish voice. You can refer to him as 'deer'." Kris explained to the manager in a condenscing tone. Chen and Tao erupted into laughter at the back. Joongchan cracked a smile at that. "I'll keep that in mind." He replied. "Ya! You wanna go, Yifan? I'm stronger and faster than you!" Luhan said, his voice slightly angry. "Yeah, but I'm smarter and taller than you." Kris retorted. "What the heck does height have to do with anything?" Luhan asked. "It is everything." Kris said simply, showing a peace sign before turning back around. 

Xiumin and Luhan turned back to Lay. "Okay, fine. I'll pay for you." Xiumin offered. "Thanks hyung!" Lay said, his face lighting up suddenly. "But, you have to pay me back double and if you don't pay back by tonight, I'll be adding a thousand won everyday until you do." Xiumin added, with a predatory smile. Lay looked shocked. "Hyung..?" He asked. Chen began to cackle again. "I think you've been spending too much time with D.O., hyung." Chen joked. Luhan leaned into Xiumin. "That was yyy." He whispered into the shorter boy's ear. Xiumin flushed. He discreetly pointed at the manager and glared at Luhan. Not now. Luhan just smirked back.

"No way! You guys rented the whole place for us? That's so cool!" Sehun said excitedly. "Whoa. I didn't expect that." Xiumin said turning to Luhan. Luhan shrugged. "I'm good with surprises, amn't I? What do you think of your date so far? It took a lot of money after all, to book this place." He lied proudly. "Shut up." Minseok retorted cheekily. Luhan laughed. "Alright, alright." He said, putting his hands up in surrender. 

"Gather around, everyone." Chanwan called out from near the gift shop. Luhan grabbed Xiumin's hand despite there being no need for him to (Xiumin didn't really mind though) and they reached there together. Once everyone had arrived, the managers began to recite the rules and instructions of the park. Xiumin listened carefully as Luhan was probably daydreaming being the kid he was. 

"The staff can help you, just ask them. Do not hesitate to call us if necessary." Chanwan ended it sweetly. Everyone nodded and dispersed, going off in separate directions. "Come on Minseok! Let's go!" Luhan said immediately, grabbing his hand and jogging to who knows where. "Where are we even going?" He asked the boy as they ran together. "We have to go to all the couple rides." Luhan said to him. Xiumin blushed. 

"Wouldn't it be a bit suspicious to the managers if we go on couple rides?" He asked Luhan. Luhan stopped running, a frown on his face. "I didn't think of that." The boy admitted sheepishly. Xiumin rolled his eyes. "Idiot." He said. At that moment, Lay decided to join them. "Hello!" The boy said happily. Luhan glared at him. "Yixing, could you please leave? We're having our date!" Luhan fumed. Lay shook his head. "Minseok hyung promised me food, Luhan." He replied stubbornly. "You want food already?" Luhan asked incredulously. Lay nodded. "Also, Chen ditched me to go with Chanyeol and Baekhyun." The boy added, sounding a bit annoyed. Xiumin patted his arm comfortingly. "You can come with us then." Xiumin said leniently. "But Xiumin!" Luhan protested immediately. "Just for a little while." Xiumin negotiated. Luhan sighed angrily and walked ahead of them, obviously upset. Lay began to shower Xiumin with food requests. Xiumin sighed. This was going to be a long day.

Lay had been stuffed with food and eaten enough for three people (he literally ate the food of three people-Xiumin and Luhan hadn't eaten anything!) when a text from Chen came. 

Aren't you guys going to come for lunch?

Xiumin's head shot up. "Chen's asking me why we're not there for lunch. What does that mean?" He asked, confused. Luhan shrugged, still sulky. Lay looked up from the jjangmyun. "Oh yeah. The manager said we should meet up for lunch." Lay said. Xiumin facepalmed. "When was this?" He asked. "While you were getting Luhan from his room." Lay replied innocently. Xiumin wanted to punch a wall. "So why did you eat now? Why not just wait for lunch?" Xiumin asked. Lay glanced at him blankly. "I.. I don't know." 

Xiumin had to settle for punching the table. 

~

They quickly walked to the restaurant after texting Chen for which one they were at. The other members were already seated, looking to be done with their food. "About time." Baekhyun teased. "What took you guys so long?" Chanyeol added. Xiumin sighed, his fist hurting. "Don't ask." He said angrily. Chanyeol's eyes widened and he shut up at Xiumin's tone. "What happened?" Chanwan asked. Xiumin bit his lip. "It's really nothing important." He said, trying to remain calm. 

The three of them sat down and Xiumin and Luhan ordered food. "Lay? Aren't you ordering?" Suho asked. "Um, no. I kind of already ate." Lay said, glancing at Xiumin awkwardly.

In the end, they didn't go on any couple rides. Instead, they decided to go on the rollercoasters. A cup of coffee had brightened Luhan's mood and he was once again excited and happy. "Let's go on that one! The Gyro Drop!" Xiumin pointed out. Luhan froze as he gazed at it. "Um, that high?" He asked nervously. "Come on hyung, are you afraid?" Sehun asked from behind them. He was with Kai, both of them wearing matching snapbacks. "You guys look like a couple with those hats." Luhan commented, distracted by them. Kai laughed. "Like I'd be in a relationship with him." He said, pushing Sehun away playfully. Sehun grimaced. "I'm not gay." The boy said simply. 

"So, let's go on the Gyro Drop. I personally think it'll be fun." Kai said. Xiumin nodded. "We were about to as well." He said. Luhan remained quiet. Sehun clapped his hands. "Let's go then." He said and they were soon getting buckled up. Sehun and Kai sat in front of them. Xiumin was just fixing the buckles when he heard a whimper. He turned to see Luhan who was pale. "Hey. What's wrong?" He asked the younger boy. "I'm kind of uh, scared." Luhan said. Xiumin cocked his head. "Don't worry, it'll be fine!" He said, trying to encourage him. "Yeah, hyung. There's only like 3 360 spins." Sehun mentioned from the front. Luhan turned slightly green. "Yeah, maybe I should just get off." Luhan said. It was too late however, as their seats began to move ahead. "Oh god." Luhan said. 

~

Xiumin and Kai came off the ride confidently, their hats in their hands and their hair suitably messy. Sehun came off grumpily, rubbing his face. Luhan stumbled out nearly falling on the floor. Xiumin and Kai stopped him just in time. "Whoa there." Kai said. "Ya! Hyung! Why did you smack my face during the ride?" Sehun asked angrily. "I didn't mean to." Luhan said, breathing shallowly. 

"How does someone even do that accidentally?" Sehun complained. "You're forgetting, Sehun-ah. Luhan isn't just anyone. He's Luhan." Kai said dramatically. The two maknaes began to laugh over the joke. Xiumin ignored them, looking at Luhan with concern. "Do you need to go the bathroom to vomit or something? Do you need anything?" He asked the boy. Luhan shook his head and glanced up, smiling weakly. "I only need you." The boy said. "This is not the time for cheesy pick up lines, Luhan." Xiumin said rolling his eyes but he still smiled. 

"I'll be fine, in like 5 minutes. Just, no more scary rides, please. Let's just walk around." Luhan pleaded. Xiumin felt a bit disappointed. What was the point of coming to an amusement park if you didn't go on the rides? But, he nodded for Luhan's sake. "Anything for you." He said. Luhan grinned. "And you call me the cheesy one." 

~

It wasn't all bad. They spent the time well. They watched Baekhyun nearly have a panic attack on the Gyro Drop and then proceed to break everyone's eardrums in a 2 mile radius with his screams. Chen had cackled during the entire ride (at Baekhyun) and Chanyeol had cheered. D.O. and Lay had bought items from the gift shop. Tao had convinced Kris to buy matching earrings (Xiumin didn't know how) and Suho had spent the time talking to the managers about 'serious business'. Sehun and Kai had gone on every ride (twice) and even taken selfies (on the ride!) 

All in all, it was a satisfactory day. Luhan had apologized again and again and Xiumin, not wanting the boy to feel bad, had forgiven him, insisting it was okay. 

~

They were back at the dorm and were sitting together, watching a variety show on Luhan's IPad. Xiumin was laughing at one of the failures of the cast when Luhan kissed him. Xiumin was surprised (pleasantly). "What was that for?" He asked curiously. Luhan didn't reply with words, choosing to kiss him again. 

It turned into a heated makeout session and hands were roaming everywhere when Luhan spoke up. 

"You may have not been able to ride any rollercoasters but there is one thing you can ride."

OH THE CHEESINESS IT BURNS
