We were pretty excited. It was a Saturday morning and Amber and Lexi, my two BFF's, had planned a trip to the nearest amusement park, inviting their boyfriends and me. It wasn't a long drive to get there, but the anticipation made it unbearable. I had never been to an amusement park before, so this was an exhilaratingly new experience for me. Amber and Lexi were by my side the entire way inside showing me all of the rides that we could see from the distance and telling me all about them. I was so excited. After we finally got inside and into our first line, I realized that I would be riding alone, because the seats were two person seats. Amber must have seen the fear and disappointment on my face because she chimed right in to say she would ride with me on the first ride. Lexi picked up on her cue and said that they could take turns riding with me so I wouldn't have to ride alone. I kind of felt like a baby and like I was in the way of them and their boyfriends, but at the same time I did not want to ride alone. It was time to get on the ride. The first roller coaster I had ever been on. My adrenaline was pumping through my veins a mile a minute. My heart rate increased drastically and I couldn't stop thinking of everything that could ever go wrong with the ride. I was really second guessing my decision, but it was too late now because Amber was seated and harnessed in, looking at me expectantly. I just smiled and crawled in next to her.
Everything seemed to move really fast from there. We were all loaded and harnesses were checked, then we slowly started to move up an inclined plane where we halted and some instructions were given over the loudspeaker. Next thing I knew I was being jerked forward and the ride had begun. It was unlike anything I had ever experienced. It felt like gravity had been turned off and my stomach and insides were being thrown around inside me. I felt butterflies in my stomach that I never knew existed. The ride ended all too soon though and when we got off I felt like I needed to explain how awesome the ride was to my friends, even though they had experienced it too. The adrenaline proceeded even after the ride was over and I felt like a giddy child scrambling to get in line for the next ride.
The day continued out like that and it was so much fun to say the least. I knew that they were going to want to ride with their boyfriends eventually though and I was getting comfortable on the rides, at least enough that I could ride alone. So I told them that they could ride with each other and I'd ride with whatever extra they had that was also alone in line. We waited and waited and waited, because we all know how amusement park lines are, and finally we approached the end. We were loading the ride and the lady asked how many was in our group. Lexi said 5 and the lady nodded, telling us to go ahead and load. The lady winked at me as I was getting on and I was a little confused to I just smiled and nodded. I understood completely thought when this really cute guy plopped himself down next to me. I introduced myself and said hi to relief some of the awkward tension. He very politely exchanged greetings and made a bad joke that I don't really remember anymore. His name however, was Michael, and boy was it sexy when he said it. I didn't have any more time to focus on him though because the ride started. It may have been the best ride of the night and I kind of wanted to go on it again.
When the ride was over I smiled and waved at Michael and headed towards the exit to meet up with the Amber, Lexi, and the boys. They were gathered waiting on me and started talking about getting food or going on an easier ride, like bumper cars or cable cars. I really didn't want to stop riding rides quite yet, and I hinted that. Lexi suggested that they go on the cable cars and I go back on the ride I was just on and then we meet at the burger hut for some food before we headed home for the day. I thought that was a brilliant idea as I would be riding alone anyways.
We parted ways and I got back in line for the ride, only the single riders line this time so it'd go faster.
I was playing piano tiles on my phone when I felt a tap on my shoulder. "Nicole?"
I turned around and looked to see Michael standing there. Six feet of pure hunk stood in front of me, sporting a blue Hollister shirt that brought out his miraculously deep blue eyes and showed off his toned arms that I really just wanted to put my hands around. He ran his fingers through his dark curly hair and gave me a nervous smirk before asking me if he could stand with me.
"Of course!" I replied. "I mean, after all, you did endorse my horrid screaming earlier. It's the least I could do." He just chuckled. We talked about our lives and got to know each other. It was pretty fun and he seemed really cool. I learned that he had an older sister, and that he was only a few months older than me. I told him that I was a writer and currently fifth wheeling with some friends that I can come with, and that it was my first time at an amusement park. He raised his eyebrows in disbelief.
"Oh really?" He inquired.
"Yes really." I snapped back.
"Well I'm glad you chose to come today then." He said with his head down.
"Oh?"
He looked up and I found myself locked into his infinite blue eyes. He moved closer, so close that I could feel his breath on my neck, but I was oddly not threatened enough to move or worry. His hand slipped around my waist and he pulled my hips closer to his. "Yeah," he said, leaning closer to me. His lips finally and all too slowly touched mine, and it was so passionate and intense. We refrained from some tongue action so we weren't 'those kids' but man did we want to. He pulled away from me to look down at me and smile. I shyly looked down at my feet.
