MiCHiES POV
"Let's do something calm since we went on the Smiler, how does a simple Ferris wheel sound?"

The Ferris wheel...with Wilbur Soot...? We're going as friends why do I have to make it seem so weird! It's just two friends going on a ride together...yeah!

"Yeah! Sounds like fun, cmon let's go before it gets any darker." I said to Wilbur.

It was already sun set, and we didn't want to leave any later, but Wilbur wanted to go on this last ride, I'll offer to drive so he doesn't need to drive for so long again. We made our way to the Ferris wheel, there was no line so we swiftly made our way in the cart. There was slight shake and then it took off, we both looked out the sides of the cart seeing how high we were, as well as the beautiful scene infront of us. The sky mixed with pink and blue, as a bright orange from the sun crept through, with barely any clouds covering the scene.

I looked towards Will as he was already looking at me.

"It's really pretty up here! I'm glad we went on here at this time." I told him.

"Yeah it's beautiful. The scene infront of me is quite beautiful as well." He said smiling his famous smile that makes me melt.

I could feel my face heat up at the comment.

"Oh uhm- was that weird- oh fuck uh- you just look really pretty with the sky behind you..." Will said.

I began laughing at his flustered state, and he also joined in my laughing.

"Thanks Will, you also look quite mesmerizing up here. Is mesmerizing the right word? You just look really nice up here as well!" I said.

"Thanks Michie. Y'know, I had fun today, with you, Phil and Tommy. We should do this again, not for a video, but just to hang out." He said.

"Yeah totally, I also had a lot of fun. We should definitely do this again." I said.

The Ferris wheel began moving again, it slightly shook as it made its way down. I'm upset that the ride was coming to an end but, I still was going to be with Will as we had an hour drive ahead of us.

"Hey Will, what if I drive this time? So you can have a nap or whatever." I said.

"Oh, if you're fine with it sure." He said.

"Yeah! I'm okay with driving us." I said estatically.

We made our way out of the park and into the parking lot. I got into the drivers seat, putting on the GPS and making my way out of Alton Towers on my way to my house first. We laughed and joked around for the majority of the ride home. Wilbur ended up taking a nap while I drove. I got to my house and woke him up.

"Will! We're here!" I said while lightly shaking him awake.

"Hmm, oh alright." He said tiredly.

I got out and so did he, we looked at eachother for a bit and started giggling. We exchanged goodbyes and even hugged goodbye.

"Wilbur are you going to be alright driving all tired? I asked.

"Yeah yeah, I'm just tired, not drunk." He said.

"Okay, but just text me when you get home, I want to know you're safe." I said worried.

"Okay okay, I will. I appreciate the worry. Truly, I appreciate how much you care, but I'll be fine." He said reassuredly.

"Okay, and I worry yknow." I said with a smile as I made my way towards my house.

As I made my way inside my house, I turned back to see him smiling and waving my way, as he made him way into the drivers seat, driving away momentarily. I walked in with all the plushies, candy and other random shit me and Will bought at the park. I threw them down on my bed and slumped on my bed, about to fall asleep until Iris FaceTimed me.

"Bitch, guess where I went today!" She said.

"Where Iris, where did you got today?" I asked tiredly.

"Hmm just a theme park...called Alton Towers...with some friends." She said.

"Iris...no you didn't. Holy fuck-" I said in shock.

"Yup! And guess who I saw!!" She said happily.

"Me...and some others..." I said.

"Yeah! I did see you...AND WILBUR!! BITCH WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME YOU WENT ON A DATE WITH HIM?!" She basically yelled at me.

"DATE?! It wasn't a date, Iris! We we're with others! It was for a video!" I said defending myself, which made me seem more suspicious.

"Oh don't act like I didn't see that oh so cute Ferris Wheel scene! It was like straight out of a romantic movie!!" She said happily.

"I- it wasn't a romantic- ugh. Iris, I swear it was just two friends on a Ferris wheel! Promise!" I said.

"Name two friends who've gone on a Ferris wheel together! I'll wait. You cant! A Ferris wheel is such a romantic ride for two and you can't tell me otherwise! Anyways who recommended the ride? Who wanted to go on it?!" She asked.

"He did, he said we should go on it since the last ride we did was the scary one." I said.

"BRO! He totally likes you! He wanted to go with you all alone on a motherfucking Ferris wheel!!" She said.

"Irisss, don't say that! Now I'm gonna look at him all differently and all!" I said annoyed.

"Differently?! How so? Wait, wait wait wait, do you like him?! Or want him to like you?" She asked excitedly.

"What- I- I don't know!! I haven't thought about him like that but lately- I don't know I've been feeling butterflies in my stomach but I don't knowww!" I said dragging out the last word.

"DUDE! You totally like him! Okay listen, I'll quit it with the crush talk seeing as you're struggling to accept your feelings. But, you def like him!" She said.

"Thanks, but I don't know! I'll think about it." I said.

"Alright! Well I've got to go! Cya Mich!" She said.

"Bye Iris!" I said.

I laid my head on my pillow scrolling on my phone, a little later I got a notification from Wilbur. He texted me telling me got home safely and how he was getting ready for bed. Without realizing I was smiling ear from ear at the thought of Wilbur texting me that he's home, even though I did tell him to let me know when he got home.

Do I like him?
