The Parrot Next Door // Scarian

It's almost 6am and I need to wake up in three hours- at least it's not a school night??

It's a long one, so uh- I hope you enjoy!

We walked around the amusement park for almost two hours while talking lightly and stopping now and then for a few mini games, until Scar stopped. "I wanna go there!" Scar exclaimed, pointing at a roller coaster.

"Finally, an actual ride!" I said, and Scar giggled before we all started running to stand in the line. The line wasn't as long as expected for the amount of ppl in this theme park, we got through it all in eight minutes.

Scar was the first one to rush in. There were four sits in a row in each cart, which is perfect for us. He sat in the last seat, and I quickly followed, wanting to catch the seat beside him, but got pushed out of the way by Grace, who took a seat next to him right after.

I glared at Grace, then at Carson when he sat next to her. I just pouted quitely and sat down. Can't a man sit next to his boyfriend peacefully??

We did a few other rides before they decided to go to the drop tower. I wasn't fan of the idea, the feeling of falling always reminds me of my failed tries to fly, but having Scar by my side it wouldn't matter.

"Last two places??" The operator called. All seats were taken except for two, no on went for them because most of the people in the line were big families.

I glanced up at Scar, who was standing beside me and he immediately understood what I wanted to ask when we made eye contact. He smiled before turning him gaze to the operator.

"Can we go in?" Scar questioned, taking a few steps forward toward the open gate. The operator of course nodded and moved so we could walk pass. Scar turned to me and opened his mouth to say something, but was interaped by Carson.

"Let's go!!" Carson exclaimed, running forward and entering through the gate, grabbing Scar's hand in the process and pulling him after him. I stared angrily at Carson as they both sat down. I turned to look at Scar as the over-the-shoulder harness slowly came down.

My gaze softened a bit when Scar gave me a sad smile with a small wave. I sighed quitely, but started laughing when the cart shot up, Scar's scream trailing off as they get higher. Grace quickly joined me.

We played and walked around the theme park the whole day, until the sun started setting. I was angry. Every opportunity that I got to be next or with Scar was stolen by Grace or Carson. Is it too much to ask for a moment alone??

Grace wanted to go to the ferris wheel and everyone was on board. After we reached the end of the line and a free pod came, I grabbed Scar's hand and pulled him after me.

We stepped into the pod and I immediately closed the gate before Carson and Grace got in. "Gri-" Grace started speaking, looking at me in confusion, but I cut her off.

"Fuck off, catch the next one!" I called, glaring at her before sitting down in front of Scar, who was already sitting and now laughing. Short moments later, the wheel continued spinning, leaving both of Scar's childhood friends grounded.

"What was that for?" Scar asked with a smile when he finished laughing. "I just wanted some time with you alone, they've been with us since the moment we woke up..." I mumbled, crossing my arms and turned away.

We weren't even that high up, but I could already see some of the rides from the top and the colourful lights. I glanced back at Scar, who was looking at me with awe with a precious smile.
