Mark drove and I sat in the shotgun seat, twiddling my thumbs. I could always count on Mark to make me feel at ease. Even if he is the most chaotic person in the world.

"You excited?" He asked me. I nodded, "Yeah, I wonder what we'll be doing. Bungy jumping or diving into a pool of cats?" I joked. He laughed, "One day you won't be terrified of cats." "Yeah, and one day cats will be able to fly."

Mark glanced at me, flashing a bright smile before looking back at the road. I played the radio and was disgusted when the worst song of all time came on. I hated that song with a burning passion. "Ew." I changed the radio station. "Not a fan of that song?" Mark asked me.

"Not a fan? More like I would like to go back in time and make sure the artist's parents never meet" I grumbled. Mark laughed, "Good to know."

"An amusement park. I should've figured" I said. "Amazing, isn't it?" I looked up at him to see him marvel at the park.

We got in and instantly we were greeted with running laughing people and distant screams from people going down big drops on different rides. "Woah." Mark grabbed my hand and ran to a random line. "What rollercoaster is this?" I asked him. "I don't know! I guess we'll find out" he said with a wink.

I blushed and looked down at the ground. When I looked down, I saw that our fingers were still intertwined. I exhaled a breath I didn't know I was holding and we waited in line for 5-ish minuets.

We pulled the bar up to our stomachs. "You excited?" Mark asked me, I grinned. "Hell yeah." Those two words are something I find myself saying a lot to Mark. The cart started moving and I clutched onto the bar as the cart went up.

"Get ready" Mark whispered. A split second after he said that, the cart raced down. I wanted to scream but, there was no air in my lounges. After 10 seconds my throat was pact with air so I was ready to scream, and God, did it feel good. Thank you Mark for giving me an excuse to scream.

We laughed and pushed each other into a photobooth. "Okay, four pictures, four themes" I said. "Silly face!" Mak shouted. We did our best silly faces. "Happy face!" I shouted back at him, we smiled and the picture was taken. "Confused face!" Mark exclaimed. I put my index finger on my chin and looked at Mark confused while he did the same with his fist lifting up his face by his cheek.

"Last one!" Mark shouted at me. "Be cringe or die!" I shouted. "Eddie poses!" We put our hands on the side of our head with our index fingers pointing up, we stuck our tongues and watched the booth take our picture.

We walked out of the booth laughing our asses off as if that was the funniest shit ever. I wrapped my arms around Mark's left arm as he showed me the photo strips. "Ah! We're so beautiful!"

"You're beautiful" Mark said, kissing the top of my head. I turned really red and looked away from him, "You corny bitch" I grumbled.

"See? You don't need food for a good date!" Mark exclaimed as we walked in line for the Ferris wheel so we could see the sunset. "What do you mean?" I asked him. "I told Wilbur what our date was going to be and he asked where I was going to fit dinner in it" he explained.

"Oh, well, this date is an example we don't need food!" "That's what I'm saying!" We got on the Ferris wheel. I don't know why, but I gasped when we started moving which made Mark laugh.

"Wow, look at that view" Mark whispered. I smiled and nodded, "Perfect." Without looking away from the view, Mark's hand found its way to mine and held it. "Perfect" he echoed what I whispered. "This date will be hard to top.
