Simply said, Kibum was nervous, deadly nervous.
He hadn't thought that he would wake up this early to go through the day a hundred times in his head, just to end up even more nervous.
He inhaled deeply one last time before he firmly rang the bell of the door in front of him, then waited trying to calm down at least a bit.
He didn't have to wait long before the door was ripped open and a visibly agitated Leeteuk stared at him, eying him from head to toe.
"Come in," Leeteuk said finally, leading Kibum into the hall.
"Yesung should be ready in a few seconds." He stared at him again.
"You're not planing anything dangerous, right? Nothing that would cause open wounds and broken bones, right?" the oldest lycan suddenly blurted out.
Kibum stared owlishly at him. "N-no?" he stuttered. Why whould he? He wasn't planing on killing them. "I just want to visit the amusement park."
Leeteuk nodded. "Ah, that's good, that's good, amusement parks are good," he mumbled, more to himself than Kibum, before turning around abruptly again.
"And also no kissing on the first date, you hear me?"
Kibum felt his cheeks heating up as he stared back at Leeteuk, slightly taken aback by the elder's words.
"N- NO!" He nearly cried out, wondering what was wrong with the other as the door towards the living room opened and Heechul and Yesung stepped out.
"Well then," the red haired stated as he checked the bag in his hands again before giving it over to Yesung, patting his head lightly. "Have fun and enjoy yourself."
He smiled gently before nearly pushing both Kibum and Yesung out of the door.
"And don't come back too late," he screamed after them before closing the door.
Kibum had to chuckle quietly as they could hear Leeteuk and Heechul quarrel down the street. Eyes wandering to the lycan next to him, Kibum was surprised to see him smiling slightly as well, staring back at the door they just left.
"They're nice, right?" Kibum laughed out, leading the way down the street to the bus stop. "They just have a clumsy way of showing it."
"Yeah." Yesung mumbled, turning around slightly, following next to Kibum. "Really gentle."
Walking down the street they fell into an awkward silence as Kibum noticed the young lycan looking confusedly from one side to the other.
"I wanted to take you to the amusement park, if you don't have anything against it," he finally declared. "It's quite a long bus ride from here but it's real fun and I haven't been there for years so.."
"Amusement park?" Yesung asked quietly, staring at Kibum with big eyes.
"Yeah, if you don't want to we can go somewhere else, the cinema or eating ice cream or..." Kibum stammered as Yesung cut in softly.
"No, I'd love to go there." he murmured giving Kibum a small smile. " I just have never gone before."
"Never?" Kibum asked wide eyed. "That's a pity. Good thing we're going then. It's too much fun to miss." The vampire smiled, hoping the park would help the shy lycan to open up a bit more and enjoy the trip.
In a short moment of boldness he just grabbed the hand of the smaller and tugged him down the street, totally missing the shocked expression on Yesung's face.
"It will be fun, you'll see."
*********************
"Wooow," was the first thing Kibum heard as soon as they stepped out of the bus, leaving him smiling at the glint in the younger's eyes.
"You like it?" he laughed.
There wasn't a real need to ask the question as Yesung was staring in fascination at the collection of rides and stands.
"Yes," Yesung smiled slightly, waiting as Kibum bought their tickets.
It was only a matter of seconds until they were standing in the middle of the big entrance looking over the map.
"We must go here, too," Kibum pointed at a random spot at the map smiling brightly at Yesung who was having trouble keeping up with the speed Kibum was pointing and looking slightly lost.
Understanding the younger's expression Kibum laughed out loud.
"You know what, screw the map." He stuffed the paper in his pocket before he grabbed the lycan's hand, pulling him towards the giant roller coaster.
***********
"And? How was that?" Kibum asked, smiling brightly despite still feeling a little light headed from the adrenalin rush, as he left the exit of the ride, an unbalanced Yesung padding behind him. "Awesome, right?"
The young lycan next to him looked up slowly, eyes still big and legs shaking.
"Right.....awesome," he stammered, grabbing Kibum's hand out of reflex before losing his balance.... again.
Grinning at the lycan's uncoordinated movements Kibum tightened his grip on the younger's hand before he crashed into something else, pulling him along to the next ride.
***********
The water slide was a bad idea they decided as they found themselves, a good ten minutes later, rather soaked from head to toe in a less crowded corner of the park.
"Sorry," mumbled Kibum again as he took off Yesung's soaked beanie, exposing his wolf ears. "I should have thought of it before."
"It's not your fault," smiled Yesung before violently shaking his head, sending small water drops flying all over the place and making Kibum shift back.
"Hey!" the vampire laughed out loud, shielding his face with his arms from the water attack.
"That's not fair!"
The young lycan looked up with an sly smile, "Revenge," he said with a grin.
Shaking his head slowly Kibum laughed before motioning the other to come closer.
"I promised them to take care of you," he mumbled as he started to rub Yesung's ears dry using his sleeves.
"I don't want to face Heechul's wrath."
"Didn't think so." Yesung mumbled softly, looking at the ground while his ears were dried and a slight touch of pink found its way onto his cheeks.
After twenty rides and a horrific experience on the free fall tower which caused both of them to decide that they did't need to do it again, they left the rides behind in favor of something eatable.
Strolling behind Kibum in search for a decent meal Yesung smiled contentedly to himself.
He hadn't been very convinced at first about the idea of going to the park but he found himself rather enjoying it and loosening up, minus the whole dizziness after every ride thing.
Enjoying the new experience he almost skipped along until his eyes fell onto a small stand on their right, offering stuffed animals if you hit the bull's eye.
A big stuffed turtle dangled from the ceiling, catching his eye.
"Nee~ , look what I've found" screamed Jongwoon, running barefoot over the grass towards his three friends sitting under the trees.
"What is it?"
"Look!" he smiled, shoving out tiny hands holding a small animal.
"That's a turtle, Woonie, what do you want with it?" asked Henry, big eyes transfixed on the small animal. "It doesn't do anything."
The young lycan pulled his hands back as the youngest vampire was attempting to poke it.
"It's cute!" he whined, pout clear on his face as the others laughed at him.
"Yeah, sure it is," Zhou Mi smiled, messing up his hair as the others where still rolling around on the grass, laughing loudly.
"You want one?"
Yesung, still absorbed in his thoughts, nearly shrieked as Kibum suddenly spoke up.
After staring at the vampire for a good minute he finally nodded shyly, pointing at the turtle.
"Alright," smiled Kibum, "I'll get it."
He quickly paid for three shots, determined to get the plush animal.
Yesung watched with interest as Kibum loaded the gun; and missed his target by meters.
The young lycan laughed out loudly at the troubled took on the older's face clearly showing his displeasure as the second shot missed its target again.
"That's not funny," the vampire murmured, turning slightly red in embarrassment while loading his gun again.
Yesung chuckled quietly again before suddenly turning still.
He slowly looked up as he could feel a tingling feeling in his fingertips, slowly spreading through his body. Gazing into Kibum's eyes he could make out a tiny spark of red flashing before vanishing again.
The flow of the wind seemed to stop for a moment as the young lycan could see the direction of the flying bullet changing in front of his eyes.
"Got it," Kibum smiled proudly, as he handed over the big plush turtle.
Smiling, Yesung took the toy into his arms, before grinning mischievously at Kibum.
"A little miracle you hit it, very weird winds today~."
Laughing out at Kibum's embarrassed look, he smiled softly, hugging the turtle tightly.
"But anyway, thank you very much."
Smiling slightly Kibum took Yesung's hand again, it was almost normal right now, stopping only to get ice-cream on their way.
"Just out of interest,'" Kibum asked after a while, as they were sitting on a bench enjoying their meal. "How did you know I changed the flow of the wind?"
Yesung stopping eating and looked up at the vampire, his eyes turning slightly blank for a moment.
"Hyung! Hyung!" screamed Henry for the fourth time that day.
"Let's play stone throwing again," the youngest pleaded as he pulled at Jongwoon's sleeve.
"I swear I'll not cheat this time~."
Rolling his eyes slightly at the youngest vampire the lycan sighed.
"Right, but just one more time, ok?"
"Yes!" Henry cheered as he took off to collect suitable stones.
"I won again!" the vampire laughed running circles around Jongwoon who frowned at him.
"You cheated again!"
"No! I didn't," the youngest stuck out his tongue.
"You did! I could feel it, it tingles in the fingertips," the lycan shouted.
"Just because you mastered the shaping of the airsteam doesn't mean you can cheat all day long," Jongwoon whined, his lycan blood not able to match up with the magic of a vampire. "That's not fair!"
"Spoilsport!" screamed Henry as he took off towards the lake, away from the pissed lycan.
"I just knew," he smiled softly. "Is there anything else you can do?"
Kibum blinked at the sudden soft smile on Yesung's lips before answering.
"There are things like faster speed and vanishing." He thought a moment before saying, "Though we aren't truly gone. It's more like adjusting the water drops in the air into a new structure to reflect the light differently; more like a chameleon," he laughed.
"Sounds complicated," Yesung murmured, finishing his food.
"It isn't," laughed Kibum, "It's one of the first things to master, it happens almost on instinct." Throwing his papers into the bin he offered his hand to Yesung.
"Ready to ride again?"
Smiling slightly the lycan hesitantly took the offered hand after a moment, standing up.
"If we make big circles around this tower and the water slide, than yes."
Laughing out loud Kibum lead the way again.
"We can arrange that."
************
It was nearly 10pm when they finally reached their final destination on the way back.
Kibum had been staring out of the window, drowsing slightly while Yesung's head had found its way on his shoulder after half of the way.
Smiling at the deeply sleeping lycan, Kibum slowly brushed the dark bangs out of his eyes before gently nudging him.
"Hey, we're home," he whispered, gathering their bags.
Whining softly Yesung lifted his head from Kibum's shoulder, looking around sleepily.
"Home?" he asked, looking around confusedly before his gaze landed on Kibum.
He shied back a bit at the closeness between them as his cheeks turned into a light pink, then slowly stood up.
"Yeah, home," Kibum repeated as they stepped out of the bus.
"I hope Heechul won't kill me, it's rather late and dark already."
Taking the lycan's hand again, Kibum sped up a bit as he heard howling from down the street.
**************
"You're home," smiled Leeteuk as soon as they stepped into the living room.
"Had fun?"
"Yes," Yesung smiled, as the oldest took him into a hug. "It was nice."
Seeing Heechul stepping into the room Kibum shifted back slightly as the red haired lycan walked towards him. Turning around Heechul looked closely at Yesung before turning towards the vampire again.
"You're lucky today; he seems happy so I will spare you," Heechul whispered, patting Kibum's shoulder lightly, before leaving him again.
"What's that?" Leeteuk asked Yesung, patting the stuffed toy on its head.
Blushing slightly Yesung buried his head into the soft fabric before mumbling, "A turtle; Kibum got it for me."
Laughing quietly Leeteuk patted the young lycan's head. "That's nice of him. But it isn't nice if you just let him go without saying bye"
He laughed again as he shoved Yesung towards the front door where Kibum was ready to go.
"Uhm.. Thank you," he mumbled shyly, head still buried into the toy. "for taking me out today."
Smiling softly at Yesung's behavior Kibum gave him a hug, leaving enough space for the lycan to back out if he wanted to.
"No, thank you for tagging along," he whispered into the younger's hair. "I had a lot of fun today."
Tensing in the hug for a short moment before relaxing, Yesung blushed slightly.
"I had fun, too," he whispered quietly.
"So I can ask you out again?" Kibum asked, as he pulled away, smiling at Yesung's red face as the younger nodded shyly.
"Then I'm relieved," he laughed, brushing one hand through the raven hair before he turned around. "Good night."
"I think they're cute," Heechul whispered towards Leeteuk who smacked him upside the head.
"Hey! You think so, too," the redhaired sulked as they watched Yesung turning red and staring at the closed door while hugging his turtle.
*************
The lycans' short sleep was interrupted by a troubled Leeteuk running through their rooms at seven in the morning, waking them none too gently.
"Has any of you seen Eunhyunk or Donghae?" Leeteuk finally asked once everyone was sitting at the kitchen table, sleepily eating their breakfast. Their alpha's question made them realize two of them were missing.
"They went out yesterday at about 8pm," Sungmin said, thinking hard. " I haven't seen them since then."
"Have you tried to call them?" Ryeowook asked, as he searched his pockets for his phone. "Perhaps they haven't heard it," he said as Leeteuk nodded.
Dialing Donghae's number and shorty after Eunhyunk's he slowly shook his head; they weren't picking up.
After calling Hangeng and Siwon, who said they hadn't heard from the two lycans, the group started to worry. Neither of the missing lycans are the type to stay away from home for a long time, especially without telling someone.
It didn't take long before Leeteuk organized little groups and with the help of the vampires they started to search for the two missed lycans, leaving Yesung and Ryeowook at home to watch over the phone.
But luck wasn't on their side as they returned back home in the late evening without any useful leads. They sat in groups around the living room in silence, unsure about what to do.
"I don't think we can do any more today," Leeteuk finally mumbled, standing up. "We should get some sleep and think about it again tomorrow."
Smiling sadly at the worried faces staring back at him he ordered Kangin to get blankets for the vampires as he shooed Yesung and Ryeowook to bed.
*****************
It was long after midnight when Leeteuk woke up with a start, looking around confusedly and wondering why he was sleeping in the living room. Then he noticed the creaking of the front door.
Suddenly wide awake he stumbled onto his feet, hurrying towards the door.
"Donghae? Eunhyunk?" he called out quietly, before turning on the light. What he saw made him stop dead in his tracks.
