It was the new amusement park that opened a few weeks back. Though you didn't look like that person, you felt excited. You've always liked the dangerous rides the most, and you didn't remember the last time you went to an amusement park, so your stomach flipped in joy.

"If you don't like it I can always take you somewhere else!" Kyojuro exclaimed, slightly sweating. He was worried about the fact that you might judge his idea of a date. One thing is for sure, Kyojuro has never taken a girl on a date before, mostly because he was too busy with the demon slayer corps that he never had time to think of it. You turned to Kyojuro and stared at him in disbelief.

"Are you kidding?! This is amazing!" Your grin widened as you grabbed his hand, "I heard there was this new roller coaster here! They say it's so badass! We should try it!" Kyojuro blinked at you. He has never seen you get this excited over an amusement park, and if he had to be honest with himself, he found it adorable. Kyojuro smiled as he nodded, walking you in.

"Sounds exciting! Let's do it!" He smiled as you both walked into the park. There were many laughs and screams of joy everywhere around you. Some carried ice cream or snacks in their hands. Others, such as the younger kids, had face paint of different animals on their faces. You loved amusement parks because they would still be fun no matter how old you were. You averted your gaze here and there, trying to find that roller coaster you told Kyojiro about. Your eyes widened as a smirk grew on your face. It seemed like you'd finally found it. It was said that this roller coaster was the biggest and fastest in the city, and you could tell how fun it looked just by studying all the twists and corkscrews it had. Kyojuro's face glanced at the roller coaster in horror, though that horror was mostly hidden by the smile he enjoyed wearing on his face. "(Y/N), dear, don't you think this one's a bit too dangerous?" Kyojuro asked you, his voice almost cracking. You glanced up at Kyojuro, raising an eyebrow.

"You aren't scared, are you?" You asked in a teasing tone. Kyojuro swallowed his saliva as he shook his head vigorously.

"No! I'd love to ride this! Let's go!" Kyojuro said briskly as he pulled you towards the waiting line. You laughed at your boyfriend's actions as you patted his shoulder softly.

"Hey, seriously. If you don't feel comfortable riding this, there are always other rides we can enjoy together." You said softly as Kyojuro shook his head.

"I'm not scared, (Y/N)! Besides, I took you here so you can enjoy your time and take your mind off some things!" Kyojuro exclaimed with a wide smile, though in his eyes was a hint of worrisome. Just how can someone who kills demons for a living be afraid of roller coasters? You nodded at him as you both waited for your turns. As expected, the line was very long. You weren't the only ones who thought the roller coaster looked so awesome. You and Kyojuro talked about many things as you waited, such as the memories you both shared before getting together (You felt a little embarrassed about it).

After what felt like forever, you both were finally having your turns on the roller coaster. You were excited, but Kyojuro was terrified. He made sure he went to the bathroom before riding, just to make sure he won't repeat the same mistake he did when he was younger. He wasn't afraid of the roller coaster before of how fast it was, or because of all of the twists and turns it had. He was afraid of it because it was the reason he got embarrassed in his seventh grade. Kyojuro turned to glance at you once you both sat down. Your eyes glinted with joy, putting Kyojuro's heart at rest. You were the source of his comfort. Kyojuro decided that this was not seventh grade, but his first date with the girl he loved so much.

The roller coaster started moving slowly, giving both you and Kyojuro an adrenaline rush of excitement. It started going upward, and the closer it got to the top, the more excited you got, and the more scared Kyojuro grew. By the time you both were at the top, you both were able to see the view of the whole amusement park, but it didn't last for so long because you both knew it, the roller coaster falling downwards, going very fast. You screamed in joy as you threw your arms into the arms, while Kyojuro screamed as well, only it wasn't entirely because of joy. The roller coaster went through twists and turns, and it went up and down. But at the end of the ride, you were laughing. You haven't had this much fun in so long. Kyojuro, on the other hand, couldn't walk straight. You helped him up as he kneeled onto you for support. You smiled. "Thank you, Kyo! I haven't had so much fun since god knows how long." Kyojuro turned at you, looking at your face. There was a glint of genuine happiness in your eyes. Kyojuro felt his stomach flip. He has never seen you so happy over something so simple, and the fact that he was the reason made him happy as well. Kyojuro smiled softly as he planted a soft kiss on your lips.

"I'm glad you're enjoying yourself."

It was a very long, joyful day for you. You and Kyojuro tried out many games, such as a water shooting game. Kyojuro has won and received a giant orange bunny plushie in return. Kyojuro gave it to you as a present, and you swore you were going to cuddle with it every night whenever he wasn't there to sleep by your side. You both tried playing in the arcade as well. While you were doing a decent job in playing the games, Kyojuro wasn't the best at it, but he had fun nonetheless. You both ate a lot of food as well. You shared cotton candy and ate ice cream. They even sold steamed sweet potato to Kyojuro's luck, earning a loud 'UMAI' from him every time he would take a bite. Though some people passing by gave him weird glances, you ignored them and just followed his example after every few bites you would take.

By the time it was sunset, you both decided to finish your day at the amusement park with a ride on the Ferris wheel. You glanced at the view when you both reached the top. Unlike the roller coaster, you were able to see the view of almost the whole city from where you both sat. The lights were flickering one by one, lighting up Tokyo. It was such a beautiful sight. "It's really beautiful from up here..." you whispered, laying your head on Kyojuro's shoulder as he rested his head on top of his. You both were very exhausted after today, so maybe this was a great time to rest with each other. Kyojuro looked down at you.

"I think you're even more beautiful." He said, making your face turn pink.

"You're so cheesy." You mumbled, but both Kyojuro and you knew well that you liked it. Kyojuro played with a few strands of your (H/C) hair, his eyes not leaving the view. You both stayed quiet for a few minutes before you broke the silence. "Kyojuro?" Kyojuro hummed in response, turning back to you. You hesitated for a moment. "Thank you... thank you for everything you've done for me." You smiled softly, placing a gentle kiss on Kyojuro's jawline. Kyojuro placed another kiss on your forehead.

"Thank you, (Y/N)... for loving me for who I am."
