the him of hers

"No items are allowed on the ride. Including cigarettes, and alcoholic beverages."

The ride operator looks to several of guys with those exact items in their hands as we're all standing at the gate.

Including De and Kaido.

Kaido is next to me and throws his cigarette on the ground. Extinguishing it with the high top platform black and white converse on his feet.

He dressed like the cute, quiet, settled guy. The glasses on his face is what really set it off.

The type of person to not speak unless spoken to. And when he did speak, it would be something interesting.

I felt like he lived in a world of his own. With or without the people around him.

His outfit was denim jeans with two holes right in the middle of each pants leg and a faded white plain shirt underneath an black open jersey.

A really simple guy, with an opposite mindset.

"I'm sure our belongings wouldn't affect the ride too much. We can handle ourselves. I can."

De, however, is doing the only shit he knows how to do. Break rules and manipulate. For no exact reason at all. Just for fun and self entertainment.

He steps closer to the worker and her face is immediately turning bright just from his simple movements.

What a fucking attention seeker. All of this, just to gain a certain reputation from a crowd of idiots. Who probably think he's bad ass.

Well, there's one outsider in this crowd. And that's me. Because right now, all I see is a dumbass gaining affect on another dumbass.

With his foolish little techniques.

Some people just don't know how to use the gifts their given. By some, I mean most.

"So, how do you know him?" Kaido whispers next to me and makes my perceptions of that nonsense of a person go way.

"Who?"

"That guy. The one who's sarcasm matches yours superbly. You seem close to him."

"De, well it's...he's..."

"Complicated, I see." He finishes my sentence off with the perfect word. "Isn't the basic root of life complication? No need to explain, Kambrea."

"Some belongings are allowed everyone! Just make sure you choose wisely! Please choose your seats on the rollercoaster!"

The worker who was of course easily persuaded by a literal child yells to everyone in the gate and we all start walking towards the ride.

It looks even better up close. I can tell everyone is excited just from every facial expression I'm sighting.

"Of course your riding with me, Kambrea."

"Hell yeah. But if I puke on your fucking face, don't switch up. Keep the vibe going, through it all!"

"The vibe will forever stay. With vomit in my eyes and all."

We get in the second to last seat in the back of the rollercoaster.

Back is beauty. It's the best experience.

I'm on the right and he's on the left. We keep our unique, random conversations going as we wait for it all to start.

"Hey, I still didn't get that picture of you. I was actually trying to put my number or something in there. Pull an old one on you."

I laugh and gasp. "Kaido, have you ever noticed how much you talk like a grandpa?"

"Honestly? Yeah, a badass grandpa. Because you're still fucking with me."

"I am indeed. Here."

I open my phone and scroll to my Snapchat. Remembering that I never got that selfie of myself earlier.

So I lift the phone up with both of us in the camera and snap the perfect pic, then post it.

"You little shit, give me the phone." He snatches the phone from me and adds himself.

"Tomato cum dot kaido?" I read out his username. A tub of giggles is about to spill out of me from this shit. He's fucking hilarious. I need him in my life.

He looks at his phone, scrolling to his Snapchat to go add me back. "Princess Kambrea. Not much better. Fun fact, you're a goddess, actually."

"Oh, do I slay like one." I pose. "Do I slay like a goddess?"

"Shit yeah."

His username. It's funny as hell.

I take another picture. Im sticking out my tongue with wide eyes while my head leans back towards Kaido. And Kaido is sitting there smiling crazily with two middle fingers up.

"Off guard are the best ones."

I laugh while adoring this picture with the stranger who I felt so easily familiar and comfortable around.

A part of me explored that I never knew I had.

"Maybe we were like fucking farmer mates in the past life. Cropping and shit together - oh shit!"

The rollercoaster jerks forward so quickly. I'm unprepared and Kaido starts laughing his ass off as I uncontrollably join in, helpless cries sounding like their involved to.

I always seemed to make sounds without my body's comprehension. Shit just comes out on its own.

Chatter is starting up more in more from all of the teenagers who are riding with us.

"Ah fuck! Tuck your dicks, pussies!" I hear that naturally aggressive voice of De's from the front of the ride yell amongst all of the loud voices.

He's holding his red cup in the air while the ride starts to become slow up the hill. The others around him are laughing, shouting, and cheering on the ride. Lifting their belongings too.

It...kind of looked fucking fun up there.

No.

"It's loud as fuck up there!" Kaido improves his tone for me to be able to hear him over the loud noises.

"Yeah, but we're gonna be fucking louder!"

I lift both of my arms in the air as the rollecoaster reaches the top slowly.

Kaido and I look at each other and start laughing at each other right at the climax. My eyes are wide and my heart is coming out of my chest.

From both the feeling of the rollercoaster, and that new-coming feeling I'd felt for the first time today.

Looking at Kaido increased my emotions for some reason.

The rollercoaster drops down like a meteorite from fucking heaven. It feels like we're falling from heaven.

Somehow I love this feeling. Like freedom.

Falling...can be so releasing.

My hair is sticking to my eyes as I try to look to the side of me with the wind thrusting itself on my face.

I'm able to spot Kaido with a wide open mouth, smiling so hard at me through his strands of hair blowing across that pretty little face.

He's holding onto the bar so tensely and laughing. Laughing so hard it looks like his guts could fall out.

"Oh fuck!" He screams out and his voice cracks as the rollercoaster twists and turns.

I'm able to capture this exact moment inside of my head. Making it a memorable picture.

Seeing a pretty, unknown boy being so happy beside me and enjoying me.

Knowing the little I knew about him, yet already loving it.
