Carnival Date

You and Jamie were planning on going on a special date for your one year anniversary. You didn't want to go to a fancy restaurant as you guys did that quite often and wanted some change. You wanted to do something that you and Jamie would remember forever and look back on it and laugh. 

You both decided to go the state carnival, California had a pretty big state carnival compared to yours back home so you were pretty excited. It was the perfect anniversary date and you both loved the idea. The greasy food in combination with the rides that look like the were on the brink of falling apart, this was about to be the time of your life.

"Okay, which ride do you wanna go on first?" Jamie asked, intertwining his hand into yours. You both stood at the entrance, listening to the screams of people who were already on rides as pop music was blasting from every angle. It was an amazingly overwhelming feeling.

One path led to food and drinks while another path led to the ride and carnival games. "How about we do rides and games before we eat." You say, going to the left as you dragged Jamie behind you.

"Good idea, not in the puking on people mood today." Jamie said followed by a laugh, as we both looked around at the kids running around enjoying their sugar high's. You smile and laugh, making your way towards the games. Scanning the booths that had lines of people waiting in line.

"Which game are you thinking, hun?" You say, turning towards Jamie. He looks around at all of the games and then he finally lands on one he thinks he will like. 

"That one!" Jamie said, pointing like a little kid . In bold letters a booth had "Ring Toss" spelled out across the top. You both walk over hand-in-hand and get in line. Despite it just being a game with a stick that you had to throw rings around, it was definitely more difficult than it looked.

As you both stood in line waiting, you watched as people went up and try to make an effort to win. A big stuffed bear was the prize. So far, no one has even come close to winning it.

Eventually, Jamie goes up and cracks his knuckles and his neck dramatically as if he was warming up for a hockey game. "Watch this, babe" Jamie says, and he continued 'warming up' for this game. You sigh, preparing yourself for Jamies competitive nature.

Jamie grabs a ring to throw around the stick, and somehow it loops around the stick, falling to the bottom. Jamie throws his arms out and gives you a bear hug. Eventually, one by one, each ring lands on top of each other. Before you could even realize it, Jamie had landed all 5 rings. 

"Wow! You're the first person to win all night!" The worker says, grabbing the stuffed bear. Jamie  grabs it and hands it to you, placing it into your arms.

"For you, my love" Jamie says, kissing your forehead. Your cheeks heat up because of the affection Jamie had just shown you. You both walk out of the booth hand-in-hand once again, as you made your way towards the food.

You sit down a bench, while Jamie goes to order a funnel cake to go between both of you. A couple minutes later he comes back, setting it down in the middle of the table. You use the bear Jamie won for you as a cushion next to you. 

"I love you, Jamie. I love the bear and today has been absolutely perfect." You say, cupping Jamie's right cheek. "Anything for you, my love" Jamie responds, brushing a strand of hair out of your face.

The rest of the night was filled with playing games and going on rides, many laughs and kisses were exchanged and wonderful memories were made. When you get home Jamie sets out a his hoodie and a pair of your pajama shorts out on your shared bed, along with the bear.
