Author's note: this is Dream's POV again !! :)

Also, the song for the next section is 'Stargazing' by The Neighbourhood !!

George and I enter the fair, and start walking around immediately. 

It's started to get dark already, considering it had taken us around 2 hours to drive here in the first place. 

There are bright lights surrounding almost the entire place, food courts, different rides. 

"Let's go on that one." George says to me, pointing to a boat going up and down. 

I laugh, and we start running over. 

We don't have to wait in the line for too long, and George insists we go in the back of the ride. 

We sit and lower the handlebar so we don't fall out. 

I feel myself shake a little bit, and George chuckles at me. 

"Are you actually nervous?" He laughs. 

I attempt to lie, a smile on my face. 

"No, of course not."

He continues laughing as the ride starts. 

We start by going forward a little bit, and I hold on tight to the handlebar. 

The boat continues going back and forth, and I feel my grip get tighter. 

George looks completely relaxed. 

The boat continues for a few moments, until we're almost on the ground as we go forwards. 

George lifts his hands in the air easily, and I continue gripping the bar. 

I stare at him in disbelief. 

"How are you not scared that you're gonna fall off?"

He laughs at me, and places one of his hands on mine as we go backwards, again. 

I attempt to keep my hold on the bar, but he takes my hand in his and lifts it up. 

I feel my stomach do a backflip, but start to realise that it's actually fun. 

I lift my other hand up too, and we continue until the ride finally comes to a stop. 

As we continue walking through the fair, we decide to buy food.

George bought a huge stick with cotton candy, and we shared it. 

He also insisted we buy a big bag of popcorn, so he did. 

I laugh as he opens it. "You're gonna finish the entire thing before we go on the next ride?"

He smiles at me as he stuffs some into his mouth. "You jealous?"

I shake my head in amusement, and take some. 

He pretends to be offended at my action as I put some into my mouth.

We see two swings that no one's using, and George immediately gets on one. 

He sits on a small wooden plank with ropes to hold it up. 

"You really like swings, don't you?" I laugh when I notice it's too small for him.

He doesn't seem bothered by it and nods. 

He continues smiling as he swings, and I get on the one next to him. 

I sit down, and start swinging with him.
