we both got off the building and started to head towards his car. soon we reached near his black matte car. 

very fine and luxurious. i was very stunned reasoning that an 18 year old guy had such a costly car. ''rich dad benefits'' he spoke as if reading my thoughts. he smiled and slowly opened the car door for me. i grinned back and got inside. he went to the opposite side and got into the car. 

''you have a license right?'' i inquired him as i started to put on my seatbelt. ''obviously, i do baby'' he talked while he fastened his seat belt. he began to drive and suddenly it came to be quite. the uncomfortable silence. i decided to break the silence. ''what does your dad do?'' i asked him. he peeked for a second. ''you could've picked another topic to start a conversation'' he taunted and i rolled my eyes smilingly. ''i am not going to even try from next time'' i babbled.

 ''ok i am sorry baby. my dad is a businessman. merchandise company labeled 'babbled'. he is usually outdoors. he returns only for christmas. he is the cold dad type'' he said. i nodded. cold dad? i never know what that feels like. it must hurt. 

''what does you dad do?'' he asked. ''he is a sweet one and is a detective'' i told him and he nodded too. we reached the carnival in some time.

 he parked the car and we both went in. the whole place was all bright and colourful. there were lights everywhere. big rides and small stalls are set up.  many coupes were holding each other's hands and many children laughing. ''like it?'' daniel deliberately asked me. 

''it is beautiful'' i said with much amazement in my voice. ''so what should we do?'' daniel asked me. i scanned around. there was a lot to do. ''i don't know'' i uttered and glanced at him. ''lets go to the haunted house'' he announced and signaled out the big haunted house set up. ''no no i am scared of such things daniel'' i confided him and looked back in his eyes. ''i am with you. why are you scared? i will be there'' he spoke and before i could debate much he started to walk to that creepy looking thing. ''i will literally pee my pants'' i spoke as i walked behind him being scared as hell. the look of the set up itself gave me goosebumps.

 it was a big one. ''face your fears baby'' he looked back for a second and smiled. simple to say. 

he went towards the counter and bought us two tickets. my heart was pumping fast in my chest. we both stood at the entrance waiting to go in. 

daniel definitely recognised that i was scared. my short breaths were an indication of fear itself. just when we were about to go in i felt daniel clutch my hand and intertwine with his. his massive cold hand held my tiny one easily. 

he tightly grasped it as we both started to walk inside. the room inside was creepier. the sudden burst of frightening sound in between made me flinch and made daniel chuckle.  suddenly while i was walking something disgusting held me arm which caught me in shock. i gripped daniel's hand tighter as i shouted. my other hand was on his arm as well. ''it fine. they are just actors'' he explained. the creepy so called actor crawled its way out of our sight. the fifteen minutes of haunted house could be summarised as me screaming and daniel cackling at me. as soon as we came out he burst into more laughter and i started to take deep breaths. i am never doing it again. 

10:30

we did many other things. played games and did some shopping. we both were almost done with everything but deep down i didn't want this to end. i don't know but something was different today. 

i kept sensing it. 

he looked more relaxed and not harsh. he chuckled and laughed freely instead of slipping into his cold facade. 

''what do you wanna do now? we still have the whole night'' he asked me as we both finally sat on a bench next to a fountain. 'lets go on the ferris wheel'' i admitted him as whiled a little bit towards him. ''the ferris wheel? lets not''

 ''why?'' i asked him with a smile and he smiled nervously as he spoke, ''because i am not a fan of heights'' i understood that he was afraid of height. 

''lets go. i am with you. why are you scared?'' i narrated his dialogues and he knew i was teasing him. he pushed his tongue to one side of his mouth with a smirk. 

''its  a phobia. please baby'' he recited shyly. ''face your fears'' i said and stood up to walk to the counter. ''maya!'' he said under his breath as he walked along. he bought the tickets and showed them to me. ''tickets to my death'' he spoke with a voice face and i laughed at his state. ''what is the worse that could happen? come one'' i sad we both got into the queue to go in. ''i could end up having a panic attack and then you have to drive us back, probably the worst part'' he spoke being serious. we both got into the small cabin. he sat beside me rather than in front of me. 

his breath became shaky. i have never seen him so nervous before.

 i smiled at his scared attire. it was cute. i slid my hand into him just the way he did before. he looked at me and managed to flash a small smile. ''this is way more fearsome than the haunted house'' he let out. as the ride started, there was a sudden kick to it making us shake a little. daniel gripped my hand tight but at the  same time making sure not to hurt me or anything like that. we started to raise and daniel's nervousness increased with the altitude of the ride. ''fuck maya. this is so bad'' he shut his eyes as he spoke. every compartment had to stop on the top for 5 minutes. 

ours came to the top and stopped. his breath became short and rapid. i knew i had to do something before this man passed out. 

''daniel look at me'' i told him caressing his hand. he looked up at me. ''take a deep breath. do it with me'' i instructed him and inhaled a long breath.

 he did the same.  we both did this for a few second and he seemed a little comfortable but still frightened. unconsciously we had gotten close to each other. he bent a little more and i could feel his hot breaths on my lips. 

soon i was the one who was more nervous at this.  his hand left mine and went onto my cheeks. he caressed it slowly. his face came closer to mine and the bride of his nose touched my cheeks. he slowly closed his eyes. he laid his soft warm lips on mine and my eyes slowly shut. it felt pleasing. I felt a need to deny but my desires were on their top. me moved his lips slowly yet passionately on mine. my hand crawled to his chest, laying there. 

his heart was beating fast like mine. I could feel the deep want between us. there was a need to stop but there was also the want to continue and do much more. the wheel had kick again which brought us back to our senses. Daniel slowly pulled away. both of us were breathing heavily and we had intense eye contact. the Ferris wheel lowered to the bottom and stopped. we finally broke eye contact. 

he got off the ride and lent me a hand to come off. suddenly there was heavy tension between us.
