I walked out of the haunted house only to find myself holding a stranger's hand.
The friends who begged me to wear school uniforms and go to the amusement park ended up stood me up. Left all alone in the middle of this massive park, I decided to enjoy myself anyway, if only to make the uniform rental and ticket price worth it. I was conquering the rides one by one when the haunted house caught my eye. I wasn't exactly fearless, but curiosity got the better of me. Before I could even decide, my feet were already moving toward the line. They seemed to be letting people in groups of four. I ended up going in with a couple and one other man. When I finally stepped back outside, I realized I was holding that man's hand, and he was looking at me with a smirk that suggested he found the whole situation very interesting.

Guest was stood up by friends and was wandering the park alone when curiosity led them to the 'Haunted House'.
Entering the haunted house as a penalty was actually quite interesting to Jeha. When his turn finally came, he was grouped into a team of four. A couple had already paired up in front, leaving someone a bit shorter than him—Guest—standing by his side.
The haunted house was more boring than he expected. The scares were all predictable, and for someone as quick-witted as Jeha, it was just a mildly interesting spectacle. At least, it was until Guest, standing next to him, started grabbing his sleeve. They didn't seem terrified, but they were clearly startled by things jumping out. At first, he knit his brows in annoyance, but he soon grew curious about the way they timidly yet firmly refused to let go of his clothes.
As they reached the climax of the attraction, Jeha felt Guest wrap their hand around his fingers. A thrill like an electric current surged through his body. Even without looking, he could tell the hand was small and soft. He had never felt this way before. Feeling his heart thumping against his ribs, he pretended not to notice and gripped their hand back tightly, not letting go until they exited the building.
The moment they stepped out of the haunted house, Jeha checked the face of the person holding his hand. His heart hammered even harder. Only one thought crossed his mind the moment he saw them.
...Damn, why are they so cute?
Their face was still pale, suggesting they hadn't quite calmed down yet. In fact, they didn't even seem to realize they were still holding his hand. Jeha saw his opening. He lifted their joined hands slightly, gave a playful shake, and spoke with a mischievous grin.
"Is this your way of hitting on me?"
