"Good morning~!" Dongwoo rushed into Gyu's bedroom, "Time to wake up sleepyhead!" he shouted as he glomped his hyung. "Let's get you ready for your date!"

Before Gyu knew it, he was showered and all dressed up like a nerd. In a pink sweater vest over a thin white t-shirt and white pants. Hair perfectly combed.

"What the did you do to me!?" Gyu protested as he awoke from his groggy state - after witnessing the final result in the mirror.

"You look cute! You look cute!" Dongwoo laughed.

"I look like a dork! I'm not attending church, you idiot!" Gyu nearly choked Dongwoo, after roughing up his neatly parted hair, "I'm not wearing this!" and rummaging through his closet for a more Gyu-style outfit. "How about this?" He grabbed his leather jacket, a graphic tee and ripped grey jeans. "I'll be damned if Woohyun doesn't find this attractive," he assured his dongsaeng.

Dongwoo pouted, "But Woohyun likes cute boys."

"Woohyun likes what I tell him to like."

Dongwoo cringed, "Ouch, that sounded so abusive."

"You know what I meant!" Gyu snapped at him. Woohyun always complimented his style. y and chic.

After breakfast, the boys laid out their victory plan, "So, we'll start over on this end of the park and work our way over to the bigger attractions. Then once we're tired out, we'll drive to the park and stroll around for about an hour. That should give us plenty of time to get hungry. So, we'll split up and have our own picnics. Hoya and I will only be a few feet away, so you can tap us if you need help. Then finally, we'll go bowling and end with a romantic dinner at that new restaurant by the river."

"Ne," Gyu nodded, "but do we really have to do so much? That's like our entire day."

"Yes, because it's perfect," Dongwoo pushed, "It's exactly what Woohyun wants."

"What he wants?" Gyu raised his eyebrow.

"Ye--I mean...I figure," Dongwoo stuttered. He forgot for a moment that Gyu was unaware that he'd already betrayed him. "Ya, I know Woohyun, right!? He loves bowling and romantic things like walks in the park and playing at amusement parks. Trust me!"

 Gyu frowned, "...I guess, but can't we spread it out at least...This is already exhausting.."

"No! Absolutely not! We're going all out!"

 Gyu sighed, "...Fine..." before putting his sunglasses on and leaving to meet Woohyun at the coffee shop.

**********

Elsewhere, at the coffee shop, Woohyun and Hoya plotted their own victory plan.

"Haha, do you think he'll like it?" Woohyun laughed. 

"No way in Hell!" Hoya snickered.

"Excellent!" Gyu was in for a severe wake-up call.

"But, then we have to go easy on him," Hoya realized, "Otherwise he'll storm off."

"Yeah," Woohyun agreed, "I'll go easy on him~," only half-promising to do so - with his fingers crossed behind his back. 

"Oh! I think I see them!" Hoya shouted as he quickly hid the devious plan under his . Later sneaking it into Dongwoo's hand after coming up with an excuse to go to the restroom. Leaving Woogyu alone together.

"So...?" Woohyun stared at Gyu with the blankest, most unreadable, facial expression he could muster as Gyu slowly sat down across from him. He had to pretend like he was still upset with him.

"Uh..? Ah, ne!" Gyu gulped, "So..? You're here too huh?" He scratched the back of his head nervously, as he scrambled to get his thoughts together, "Goddamnit, I should have rehearsed this!" 

"..Yeah," Woohyun scowled, pretending to get up and leave. 

It worked, Gyu's nerves instantly shot his hand out to stop Woohyun from walking off, "Ah? No, don't! W-woul--." Gry froze, in a state of shock. 

"W-woul?" Woohyun mocked him, "...Agh, I thought I told you to leave me alone?" he spoke coldly but didn't try to throw Gyu's hand off of him.

"I..I'm s-so-sorry.." Gyu hung his head in shame.

"You're sorry? Wow?" Woohyun sarcastically nodded his head.  

"I--! Ya! I said I'm sorry! You don't have to be a about it!" Gyu's anger got the best of him. This was embarrassing enough. Standing up, he pulled Woohun closer to him. " this bull!" he gathered all of his nerves, "I'm sorry, Woohyun, and to make it up to you, you and I are going on a date today!" He yelled it, loud enough for the whole cafe to hear his bold confession. 

Woohyun wasn't expecting that. He thought that he'd at least get to jerk Gyu around a little more. So it was a genuine reaction what he stuttered next, "Wh--wha--...Ok, Hyung."

Gyu's glare dropped, quickly changing to a smile, "Great, now let's get going!" Taking Woohyun's hand in his.

"Ah, wh--wha--wait!" Woohyun snapped back into his right mind as he was getting dragged outside, "What about coffee? Aren't you going to order any?"

"Oh," Gyu looked around. Finally noticing all of the gawking stares the two of them were receiving. "Uh..maybe at a different coffee shop..." 

"Unnie, he's so bold," he overheard one girl gasp to her friend, "I'd just die if my boyfriend did that to me." 

Locking eyes with Dongwoo, Gyu sweatdropped and mouthed, "Why did you leave me alone?" He was mortified with himself.

Dongwoo only laughed, "Ne, forget coffee! I'm good! Hoya and I just decided to head over to this cool new amusement park down the road. You two want to come? It's a date! I mean, we finally have a good solid free day to play around all we want!? Let's do it!"

Hoya side-eyed his boyfriend, thinking, "Aren't you being too obvious?"

"Ne!" Woohyun jumped on the suggestion before Gyu could object, "I want to go~ I want to go~" playfully forcing Gyu to go along with it.

Gyu pouted, feigning ignorance as well, "Ne, I don't see why not." But, it did seem a bit odd that Woohyun was going along with him so easily. 

**********

"So, we're going easy on him right?" Dongwoo jokingly whispered in Woohyun's ear as Gyu paid for all four tickets. Because he lost Rock Paper Scissors. 

"At first," Woohyun snickered, rubbing his hands together. "We'll all act like we're fine with just riding the Merry-Go-Round and bumper cars, but then we'll gradually work our way up and force him to go on The Whiplash, Corkscrew and Dragon's Furry."

"We're also hitting up the haunted house," Hoya gleefully added, knowing full well how much of a scary cat Sunggyu is.

Dongwoo giggle, "This is going to be so much fun."

Hence, it was so. The boys started out along the kiddie side of the park: ramming bumper cars into each other, spinning in teacups, and riding around on cute little unicorns on the Merry-Go-Round. 

Alas, "Hyung, aren't you tempted in the slightest?" Hoya pretended to beg Dongwoo, "We can't go to an amusement park without at least riding one roller coaster!?"

"Errmm," Dongwoo pouted, "But they're scary..." pretending to be on Gyu's side.

"Dongwoo's right!" Gyu agreed, "I'm not going near those things. People die on them."

"But, Hyung," Woohyun interjected, "I want to ride it," pushing the fact that this was their date.  

Gyu turned around to look at Woohyun, "Really...? Wait, since when do you like roller coasters?" 

"Since I decided to right now," Woohyun cleverly replied. He'd love them after today.

Ok, now Gyu was really suspicious. Woohyun was a known scaredy-cat too, "I don't know..."

"Ne, how about this?" Hoya offered, "What if we start small and work our way up?"

Gyu was still frowning, but Woohyun loved the idea, "Let's go on that small one over there."

Before Gyu knew it, the others had sprinted off towards the moderately scary ride, "Ya, wait for me!"

He got on. Regretfully, he rode the ride with his eyes sealed shut. "Umma!" he whimpered as the others silently laughed at him. 

Next, they pushed him just a bit further, "Last one to the back row of the pirate ship has to buy snacks!" Of course, that was him. 

While doing so, he spotted the row of carnival games and remembered that Dongwoo suggested that Woohyun would love two stuffed animals.

"Hey, Woohyun.." he shyly asked, a bit too tired to keep pretending to be cool. "Do you want that one?" as he pointed to a big pink bear that matched Woohyun's own pink shirt.

"What?" Woohyun was caught off guard, too busy stuffing his face with a fishcake, "Oh? Un-hm, I want that one!" he smiled brightly at how cute and big it was, "Are you offering to win it for me!?" he checked.

"Ah..ne," Gyu blushed when Woohyun bearhugged him.

"I want it! I want! Win it for me!" Woohyun was elated with how much Gyu was genuinely trying to please him. So, Before Gyu had a chance to back out, he ran around the stalls and picked out a second stuffed animal, a red hamster, that he really wanted too. "Win this cutie for me too! I'll be extra happy if you do!"

"Omo!" Dongwoo squealed nearby when he'd spotted a minion plushie from "Despicable Me" movie, "Hoya, get over here and win this for me, too!" 

Hoya sweatdropped. Whispering, "I thought we were just here to help?"

"Don't be silly! We're on a date too. Now win me that minion."

"..." Regardless Hoya reached into his pocket and paid the vendor.

Meanwhile, Gyu made quick work of winning the large pink bear, with Woohyun joyously bouncing around behind him. It wasn't too hard. He'd specifically scouted out the shooting game. He already had excellent marksmanship, so winning it was easy. The hamster, on the other hand, was a different ordeal. Woohyun had to pick that damned milk bottle pyramid. So there was an 80-90% that it was rigged from the get-go. 

"Ngh..." Gyu groaned as he watched another couple fail to topple the pyramid, "...Yeah."

"Waa~" after watching the other boy nail the bottle head-on, Woohyun realized it too. "Ne, Hyung, nevermind," he back out, "It's ok if you don't win it for me."

Gyu shook his head in response, "No, I'm trying it."

"But, Hyung, you don't have to. I don't want it anymore. It's rigged," Woohyun explained.

But Gyu was persistent, "No, you asked for it, so I'm getting it." He could see how Woohyun's eyes light up when he looked at that fluffy thing so he had to. As Woohyun's boyfriend, he was obligated to at least try. After all, he remembered a trick that he'd learned on an online blog once. Maybe it actually worked? Chunk the cork-filled ball as hard as possible at the bottom row of thick glass bottles. 

First hit, fail. Second hit, it wobbled but didn't show any signs of giving. Gyu growled, "Alright then," as he blasted the third ball right into the bottom. And then the fourth one immediately after it. Aimed just a bit higher, so that it'd hit the lip of the bottle while it was already off balance. 

"Holy !" Woohyun and Dongwoo gasped. It worked, the fourth ball was enough to just barely collapsed the pyramid. A great use of his strength and agile reflexes.

"Hand it over," Gyu smirkily pointed to the hamster in front of the shocked vendor. 

Now Woohyun had an enormous teddy bear and a hamster to lug around the amusement park. Likewise, Dongwoo had a minion, a unicorn, a funny looking toy thingy, and five lollipops. 

"Give me one of those," Hoya stole one of the lollipops back - a bit vindictive that he was the only one winning prizes for his hyung and not the other way around. 

Gyu laughed, "Yeah...maybe we should unload some of this...Is there a storage area somewhere?" he asked. "Like a place where they'll hold onto our things while we go on other rides?"

Dongwoo dialed his phone, "Ne, ne. Ne~"

Within minutes staff popped out of nowhere and took their prizes from them - to sit and wait for them in their car. 

*blink blink*

"Dongwoo!" Gyu shouted at his dongsaeng, "Are we being filmed!?"

Dongwoo sweatdropped, "Whoops... Ah, but Sunggyu Hyung, it was the only way Manager-nim would let us go!!"

**********

Now that Gyu knew that they were all being secretly filmed, he didn't feel the whole date vibe anymore.

Which, in turn, aggravated Woohyun, "Hyung, so what if we're being filmed? We're here to have fun, so stop sulking."

"I'm not sulking," Gyu griped. His arms crossed over his chest, while he sat down at a table.

"Aish," Woohyun gave up and walked off, "I'll be with Hoya and Dongwoo - in line for the haunted house - when you're done acting like a little brat."

Gyu glared at Woohyun. He hated this. All he wanted was to make up for what he'd said the previous night. Not go on some big elaborate date - which would air on TV by the way. His love life wasn't a spectacle.

Alas, Dongwoo finally left the line to come retrieve him, "Hyung, come on. Get in line with us. Woohyun's pissed off right now."

"Don't you think that I'm pissed off?" Gyu snapped at him.

"Ya! You got yourself into this and I was kind enough to help you get out of it! So, why are you ing at me!?"

Gyu flinched. Ticked off Dongwoo was never someone he wanted to fight with. "Ah, ne," he sighed, "I'm sorry."

"Thank you," Dongwoo forgave him, "Now come join us. Because what's worse? You exposing your true feelings for Woohyun on national television, or you breaking Woohyun's heart for the second time?"

Ouch, that sentence alone was enough to sting him straight through the heart, "Ne.." Gyu reluctantly stood up and followed him, to go apologize to Woohyun.

"I'm sorry for being so selfish."

Woohyun accepted his apology, but he was still angry with him. So, once they were inside the terrifying structure, he purposefully ditched him. Just to make Gyu squirm a little more.

"Woohyun!? Woohyun!? Dongwoo!?... Hoya..?" he shrieked as he cowardly ran around the maze. Bumping into all sorts of creepy crawlies and terrifying fiends. He was ghost white when he finally stumbled out of the building - trembling.

The others laughed at his disheveled appearance. Followed by apologizing perfusely, so that he wouldn't murder them later that night. 

"Ne!" now Woohyun didn't feel so bad about it at all, "To The Corkscrew!"

"What!?" Gyu gasped.

"The Corkscrew," Woohyun smiled, "We're riding that one next!"

"No, we're not!" Gyu feverously shook his head.

"Yes, we are. I said so!" Woohyun asserted.

"Ya!" Gyu glared at him, "Is this some sort of twisted ruse to get revenge on me!?"

Woohyun gasped, "What? Hyung!?" he acted like he was offended. "What's that supposed to mean!? I just want to ride the roller coasters! Is it so bad that I want to ride them with my boyfriend!?" 

Gyu groaned, forcing himself to remember how much he loves this idiot. "...No, but if I find out later on that this was all some sort of elaborate scheme to torture me, you're all going to Hell."

Woohyun placed his hands on his hips, "Kim Sunggyu, do you really believe that I'm that type of manipulative !?" Well honestly...he was today...but for a special occasion. Yet, hearing those words come out of Gyu's mouth made him feel guilty. Should he feel guilty for tricking his own boyfriend? If it was the only way to actually go on a proper date with him?

Gyu bit his lip and sighed, "No, I--I don't...It's just that I'm really feeling uncomfortable right now," he confessed. For once exposing himself, instead of enforcing his barrier and pushing Woohyun away.

Woohyun swallowed his next words and instead apologized again, "I'm sorry too. I did leave you alone in there on purpose. I was acting petty. But, I really do want to experience The Corkscrew, Dragon's Fury, Whiplash...and all other sorts of rides with you. Every ride... Every...thing... It'll be something that we'll always remember. And honestly," he smiled a bit, "I'm scared too. That's why I wanted to ride them together."

Gyu's anger dissipated completely. Seeing the shy blush all over Woohyun's face. Did he just confess that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with him? "..Fine...I'll do it."

"You will?" Woohyun's heart fluttered, "Really?"

Gyu sighed, "I'm ready to die with you," hanging his head in utter defeat.

"Great, let's get going! Take my hand!" Woohyun cheerfully grabbed Gyu's hand and ran off with him.

Meanwhile, Hoya was patting Dongwoo on the back as his hyung bawled his eyes out over how beautiful the scene was.

"There there, Dongwoo hyung. Come on, we gotta catch up with them now."

"What?" Dongwoo sniffled.

"What do you mean what?" Hoya eye-bawled him, "We're riding them all too."

"Wha-what?" Dongwoo stuttered, "But, they're good now. They made up already. We can go."

"No we can't," Hoya remarked, "Not yet. Besides, I still have my own revenge to get."

"On Gyu? Right," Dongwoo smiled playfully, "I'm sure Woohyun will get enough for all of us." Thinking back, Dongwoo never volunteered to ride any of those horrifying things. His plan was always to bail out before it got to that point. Runoff with Hoya, and play more on the kiddie side.

"No, hyung," Hoya shook his head, "On you," as he grabbed his hyung's hand and tried to drag him towards The Corkscrew.

"Ya! Ya!, What did I do!?" Dongwoo squealed as he struggled to keep Hoya from moving him from that spot.

"A lot!" Hoya shouted. Decisively hoisting his hyung over his shoulder and running off to catch up with them. By a lot he was referring to all the carnival games he was forced to play, and all of Dongwoo's nonstop whining. "You haven't even considered me at all today!"  

"What!?" Dongwoo gasped, "Yes I--Oooohhh," It hit him. He was so concerned with blubbering over Woogyu and begging for toys that he flat out ignored his own boyfriend. Brushing off anything that he'd said - that kept him from eavesdropping on Woogyu's conversations - and only thinking of himself. 

"Yeah, oooohhh," Hoya mocked him, "So now, I get to take out my revenge on you." By forcing Dongwoo to also ride every single roller coaster at the park.

Dongwoo was sweating bullets now, "I--I...How--Can't I make it up to you a different way?" 

"Nope," Hoya shook his head while crossing his arms. They were already in line behind Woogyu.

 "But, but, but," Dongwoo stammered and innocently suggested a second option, "How about instead, I give you tonight?"

"Dongwoo!!??" Gyu'd overheard that inappropriate question. 

Woohyun'd done a double-take. Staring widely at his crazy hyung.

Hoya over-heated and passed out. He awoke several minutes later, closer to the start of the line. "What happened?" he groggily asked as he peered around. 

"We're riding The Corkscrew, remember?" Woohyun reminded him.

"Oh...right," Hoya shook his head, "But then, why'd I pass out?"

"No reason," Gyu curtly replied. Keeping his fist tightly over Dongwoo's giggling mouth. 

**********

This day would go down in Infinite infamy.  

Gyu was vomiting his guts out in a trashcan. Woohyun was collapsed on the side of the walkway - with spiraling circles for eyes. Dongwoo was permanently traumatized, and Hoya was fighting an epic nosebleed. 

Maybe they really should have stopped after the third one, like Gyu so stoutly advised? But no, Woohyun and Hoya were adamant. 

Maybe it was time to start phase two?

"How about a walk in the park?" Gyu propositioned Woohyun, as he hung off the side of the can. 

"Maybe that sounds nice," Woohyun agreed.

++++++++++

Me thinks the boys got into more than they bargained for. lol

See you next time, for part 2.
