"Tonight couldn't get any better!" Jungkook exclaimed as he skipped ahead. "The movie was actually good, and now we get to tire ourselves out at a place like this!"

The nine of you were walking through the amusement park... trying to find a ride.

"Let's go on a rollercoaster. How about that one?" Jimin said, pointing to the ride in the distance. "Do you not hear the screams coming from there?" Hoseok asked.

"I doubt it's scary. It's probably just people screaming because of how fun it is!" You said.

"I doubt that's it," Hoseok mumbled. "People normally scream when they're terrified."

"Let's go, hm?" You asked. "I'll sit next to you, and you can hold my hand the entire way if you're that scared."

Hoseok immediately took your hand in his. "I'd like that."

"Gosh, look at that. How cute," Jin sighed as he watched you two. "Reminds me of the early stages of all our relationships."

"Right? Jimin was super shy. You wouldn't believe he was shy if you look at him," Namjoon chuckled, throwing his arm around the boy's shoulder.

"I don't believe Jimin is shy," You said to them. "Well...." you hummed, thinking about this morning when he wanted to make the boys jealous. "He was a bit shy and cute at first, but then yeaaa."

"I want to hold your hand too, baby. Can I?" Jungkook asked when you guys finally caught up to him.

"You don't have to ask, Kookie," you giggled before taking his hand. "There. Now I'm holding your hand too."

Yoongi pulled out his phone to take a quick picture. "How cute," he chuckled.

"Tonight, we're going to be taking a lot of pictures. Yoongi's already started," Lia said. "Of course. Capturing memories is super important," he told her.

"You'd be surprised to find out after Tae, Yoongi's got the most pictures of us," Jin said before pecking the male's cheek.

"Can you guys speed up? I don't wanna queue for long!" Jungkook exclaimed, looking over his shoulder.

"It's not even late yet," Taehyung muttered. "We've got so much time."

"You know how that boy is. He likes trying almost every ride, which requires some time," Namjoon chuckled. "We're coming!"

.

It was actually way more than you had expected.

Despite everything between you and Lia still being a little awkward, the boys made the night eventful.

Hoseok whined and tried to avoid going on rides after the first two, but how could he resist the puppy eyes you and Jungkook gave him when the two of you begged him to go with you?

As cliche as it was, the final ride you guys decided to go on was a Ferris wheel.

Unfortunately, all of you couldn't fit into one pod, so you were split into three per pod.

In the first, you, Jungkook and Hoseok. In the second pod were Jin, Jimin and Taehyung. And then in the last one was Namjoon, Yoongi and Lia.

"I've always wanted to go on a Ferris wheel with you guys," you said, looking at the view of the city as you slowly rose to the top. "It's the perfect way to end a date at an amusement park."

"It isn't really a date since we had Lia with us. And the main reason we came out today was to spend some time with her," Hoseok sighed, looking out the window.

"Right. I hate to admit it, but it reminded me of us two years ago. I don't get why Lia had to leave Mingyu to try and get with us," Jungkook frowned. "They were literally the cutest."

"Right? If she hadn't gotten jealous of you and talked to you that day... I feel like the nine of us would've been great friends. Make it ten of us since Mingyu's your friend."

"I feel like we could've been friends... but she'd have to be way different and better than the way she is now for me like her." You told them, turning back to face your soulmates.

"Anyway, I've always wanted to do something," you said, taking their hands. "I saw it in a clip once."

"What is it?" Hoseok asked.

"Just wait until we get to the top," you giggled. "The operators will give us a couple of seconds to admire from the top, right?"

"Yeah, they should," Jungkook said. "And we're very close to the top now."

"And look, we can see Jinnie, Tae and Minnie," Hoseok smiled. "If I scream, do you think they'll be able to hear me?"

"Why don't you try?" You giggled.

"Jiminie!! Taee!! Hyung!!!" Hoseok exclaimed, tapping on the glass. "Can you bitches hear me?!"

You and Jungkook burst out in laughter as the three males in the pod looked back with wide eyes.

Jimin smiled before waving.

"Hi," he mouthed. "Why the heck are you loud?" Jin laughed.

"Focus on the view! You're at the top now!" Taehyung exclaimed, pointing at you guys to turn around.

"He's right. We are at the top," You muttered.

The three of you looked out the window in awe as you admired the view of the entire park and the city lights.

"Woah... it looks so nice from up here," Jungkook whispered. "And are those cars? They look so tiny."

"Ah, what did you want to do?" Hoseok asked, turning to face you. "This," you smiled, placing an arm around his waist and pulling him in for a kiss.

This kiss was short and sweet, and your soulmate's lips curved into a smile as you pulled away.

"I love you," you giggled before pecking his lips and turning to Jungkook, who hadn't even noticed the interaction between you and Hoseok.

"Kookie," you chuckled, gently grabbing him by his chin and causing him to look at you. "Aren't you curious to know what I've always wanted to try?" You asked, leaning in.

"Oh, yeah. You told us you wanted to try something. What was i-" You cut your boyfriend off by crashing your lips into his.

Jungkook's eyes widened in surprise, and his hands quickly held your waist.

Like Hoseok, the kiss was short and sweet, and it didn't take long before you pulled away.

"And I love you, too. I love you two, so, so much." You told your soulmates before pinching their sides.

The two males smiled and leaned in to peck your cheeks.

"We love you too, baby," Jungkook said. "So much," Hoseok told you before the two began to shower your face with kisses.

"Ah, look at those three," Taehyung said. "y/n just acted out a scene in some of those movies I watched.

"If only all eight of us could fit in one pod," Jimin sighed. "Ah, wait... there's nine of us today."

"I wonder how it is in there with Yoongi, Namjoon and Lia. I bet shit is awkward as fuck," Jin muttered.

And he wasn't wrong.

The three were silent, and no one said a word as they just admired the view of the city lights.

They weren't even sitting next to each other. Lia was sitting opposite the two males and not in between them as she hoped she would.

"Today really reminded me of our trips two years ago," she chuckled. "I'm happy we were able to go out tonight."

"You're right... it was nice," Namjoon sighed. "I actually had fun."

As much as he hated it, he was reminded of why he became friends with Lia in the first place. Her fun and outgoing personality.

He saw that side of her again for the first time in two years. The first time she returned from the states.

'I wonder when you changed... and started to view me and my soulmates as more than just friends...'

"What do you think we should do next time?" Lia asked. "I want to go ice skating. Kookie still has to teach me."

"Wow, you're actually terrible on ice," Jungkook laughed, helping the girl up. "I thought you knew how to skate."

Jimin cackled as he skated past, causing Lia to playfully roll her eyes. "That dude, I swear."

'It's been a while," Lia muttered, dusting the ice off her bottom. "And thanks for helping me up."

"It's okay. Next time we come skating, I'll teach you," Jungkook told her before helping her to the wall.

"I tried to learn while in the US... but I still don't know. Are you guys any better at skating?" Lia asked.

"Yep." "Nope."

"How come you haven't gotten better?" Yoongi asked his boyfriend. "With the number of times we've been to an ice rink, you still can't skate?"

"Hey, I can skate..." Namjoon muttered. "Just can't stay on my feet for long."

"It's okay, Joon. You and I can learn together the next time we go out," Lia laughed.

The smile on his face slowly dropped. 'Is there even going to be the next time?'

.

"Oooh, y/n, what was that?" Taehyung asked when he reached the bottom of the small staircase. "Kissing at the top of a Ferris wheel? How cute."

"You saw that?" You blushed.

"Saw what?" Lia asked. "By the way, I never realised how pretty the park looks from above."

"Oh nothing," you smiled. "Anway, what's next?"

"It's getting late, so I think it's time to go home," Jin said, looking at the time on his phone. "What do you guys think?"

"I agree. But let me use the remainder of my energy on games so I can win you guys a couple of prizes," Jungkook said.

"I'm actually going to run to the bathroom. I think I drank too much slushie," Lia whined.

"You'll find us over there. Don't take too long. Jungkook might decide to rage quit and move to a different game.

"y/n, can you come with me?" she asked. "Uh, sure. We'll be back, guys," you said before following her to the bathroom.

Luckily the bathrooms weren't too far or hard to find.

"I'll wait out here," you said when you realised it was just one female stall and a male. Lia nodded before hopping in.

You began to look around as you waited for the girl to finish her business. You watched as couples shared food, friends took selfies or pictures and more.

'Is this girl taking a shit?' you mentally asked yourself. 'Or is it one of the long-ass pees?'

"Fuck, man, why is this so hard," you heard a guy who by a claw machine whine. "This is totally rigged."

Since you were bored waiting for Lia, you decided to help him.

"Excuse me... can I have a go at that?" You asked. "I'm pretty good at claw machine games."

"You think you can win the green froggy doll for me? I've been trying to get it for my sister for the past ten minutes," he sighed. "Uh, sure... I can try," you chuckled.

The male moved aside, giving you space.

"That one, right?" You asked, and he nodded before inserting a coin.

You carefully directed the claw towards the green frog plushie sitting on top of some other cute plushies.

"And... let's see," you whispered before dropping the clawing.

You and the unknown male silently watched as the claw slowly dropped and picked up the plushie. You chewed on your bottom lip, hoping the frog wouldn't slip.

"Come on... come on... and yes!" You exclaimed before putting your hand in and taking out the cute frog plushie.

"I believe this is for your sister," you smiled, handing him the stuffed animal.

"Oh, thank you! I've been trying, but it kept slipping and stuff," he groaned. "Anyway, do you think you can win one more for me? That cute pink pig in the corner there."

"Ah, that one? Hm... sur-"

"y/n?" Lia said. "What're you doing?"

"Oh. I was helping this guy win that for his sister. I got a little bored waiting for you," you told her. "Anyway, I don't think I can help you with that one. We need to get back to my soulmates."

"Awe, it's okay. Thanks for this, though," he smiled.

.

"You guys took a while," Namjoon said. "Jungkook's surprisingly good at this game... he's determined to win a prize for all of us."

The two of you eventually found your soulmates in front of a shooting target game. Jungkook held the gun with a pile of stuffed animals next to him, and the others watched

"Sorry about that. I had a surprise lady problem to deal with," Lia chuckled. "Lady problems?" Taehyung muttered. "Oh..."

"Anyway, how many more prizes does he still need to win?" You asked. "I've won six, so three more," Jungkook said, flashing you a quick smile.

The eight of you just watched as he won the rest of the prizes.

"And... that's the last one. Thank you," Jungkook said, taking the snake plushie from the operator.

"It's time to go home now, right?" Yoongi asked. "I just want to go to bed."

"Yeah... it's late, and the park is about to close," Jimin said. "We should say our goodbyes."

"Ah, before I go, Lia. I got this for you," Jungkook said, handing her the pink and white snake plushie he won. "It reminded me of you," he chuckled.

"Thanks, Jungkook," she smiled. "It's cute."

"Anyway, thanks for inviting us out, Lia. We actually had fun," Yoongi said to the girl. "We need to get going, so we'll see you around."

"Right... I'm going the opposite way," Lia muttered. "I had fun too. See you guys around! And thanks for this, Kookie!"

"Bye!" You said as you watched Lia walk away.

"Did you think of us too when you picked out the plushies?" Jimin asked, and Jungkook nodded. "I'll show each of you which one is yours when we get home."

.

Now sitting in the car, Lia looked at the pictures on her phone with a huge smile.

She missed moments like these with the boys, and she was happy to get some pictures of them without you.

"I should post this on my story and add it to my highlights..." she muttered as she opened Instagram. "Just... like... the... old... days..." she said as she typed before tagging the boys and then posting it.

"I'm so happy we got to spend some time together," she muttered before looking at more pictures. "I forgot I took these."

Lia zoomed in on the photo she took with a smile. "I'm definitely going to post these." She continued to admire the photo sequence.

"This one... this is the best," she chuckled. "It's perfect."
