"Thank you for buying my ice cream, by the way," Jun-Oh thanked Kris. "You really didn't have to."

Kris and Jun-Oh happily walked next to each other and slowly ate their ice cream. Soojin trailed behind them, rolling her eyes and angrily consuming her dessert.

"It's not problem," Kris reassured her.

"What should we do now?" Jun-Oh questioned.

Kris only shrugged in response.

"Wow, how responsive," Soojin mumbled.

Both Kris and Jun-Oh glanced over at Soojin with a weird look. They shook it off when everyone's phone vibrated simultaneously. It seemed that the group chat was coming back.

'Hi, Welcome To Chili's'

Lay: I'm on brake bitches (ﾉ^ 3^)ﾉ

Kyungsoo: break*

Lay: I came here for a good time, but now I just feel attacked.

Chanyeol: I'm confused, do you still work at Universe? Because the employees are the ones working at the booths, but you're never working?

Suho: I don't even know and I'm the boss.

Lay: (^-^)✌︎

Baekhyun: I wish I was on break ;^; save me queen.

Lay: Girl, don't you worry, I'll go and keep you company. Where are you at, princess?

Baekhyun: The pretzel booth uwu.

Luhan: tf...

Chen: I have to work in the back of the ice cream truck with Chanyeol and Kyungsoo and they won't stop yelling at each other .-.

Suho: My bbys, calm down.

Xiumin: Don't fight each other :(

Chanyeol: Haha Chen, what do you mean??? We aren't fighting.

Chen: Chanyeol threatened to strangle Kyungsoo with his own shoelaces.

Chanyeol: ONLY BECAUSE KYUNGSOO SAID HE'S GOING TO DROWN ME IN THE DUNKING BOOTH!

Kris: lmao

Jun-Oh: Guys, stop fighting.

Kyungsoo: Suho, can I switch out with someone instead of going to the dunking booth so we can cool off and not work together?

Suho: You can switch with Sehun.

Sehun: Uh, no I was just at the dunking booth and this old lady started screaming at me because apparently it was my fault I wasn't falling in the water.

Zhilan: I saw it, it was pretty funny.

Chanyeol: Wait no, Kyungsoo I'm sorry. Please don't switch booths.

Suho: How about switching with Xiumin?

Xiumin: I wanna be dunked (^▽^)o

Chanyeol: No, I have to be working with Kyungsoo.

Suho: Why?

Chanyeol: I

Kyungsoo: ?

Chanyeol: We just have to work at the dunking booth next rotation.

Kyungsoo: Chanyeol, you're ridiculous.

Chanyeol: I'm a genius. 

Tao: Are you sure about that...?

Chanyeol: Hahaha like you have room to talk.

Suho: Hey, do you want to get hit? ONLY if Kyungsoo agrees, I'll have you guys stay with your original schedule.

Kyungsoo: He's grossing me out with those puppy eyes right now.
Kyungsoo: I'm even more grossed out that I can't find the strength to turn it down.

Chen: Okay, but can I at least switch?

Suho: Great, so it looks like everything worked out.  Now, everyone can be happy.

Chen: But... I just asked...

Baekhyun: Yayy I love it when things work out ＾ω＾

Chanyeol sighed in relief as he dropped his phone back into his pocket.

Chen scrunched his nose and closed out of the groupchat. "No one ever listens to me," he muttered as he busied himself with the ice cream.

Kyungsoo crossed his arms while standing in front of Chanyeol. "So, what's the deal?" he questioned in annoyance. "What's so important about me going to the dunking booth?"

"I just want to make things up and be a good friend. I want to help you." Chanyeol reached his arms out and pulled Kyungsoo into a tight hug. Though, Kyungsoo did not return the gesture. "You deserve happiness again."

Kyungsoo started to push away from Chanyeol, but his grip was too strong. "I don't... understand," Kyungsoo struggled while squirming in Chanyeol's arms, "how letting people... drop me in water... is helping me."

"Trust me," Chanyeol whispered and stroked the top of Kyungsoo's hat.

"I don't think I want to!"
