Sofie POV
I'm going to KILL Aspyn. Her and rawson made me go on this "stupid" ride with Santiago. My crush of eight years. I get they're supposed to be my wing men, but like, come on.

You see, i'm not super happy with him right about now. He has been talking to some girl lately, and I'll be damned if i'm gonna let some whore take my man. So here i am, in line with my crush, the guy I've liked forever, and also the guy about to break my heart the second he gets a chance, and he doesn't even realize it. Maybe i should throw them on the ride and see how they enjoy it! Yeah i know how they look at each other.

We neared the end of the line about to get on and i could feel my heart begin to spike, I've been on the ride a million times so that's not the problem, huh, weird, i have no idea why this is happening. God, how am i gonna survive this ride with him.

When we finally got to the end the guy opened the cart, and right on cue said "hey baby", because that's all he's said all night, he followed up with the usual "i love you" and closed the cart. I didn't even pay attention to it until Santiago brought it up the second the ride moved to let the next group on.

"What was that about?"

"Huh?"

"Ya know, why'd he call you baby" and maybe it was the delusion speaking, but i swear there was a hint of jealousy in his voice.

"Oh, i dont know. He's been calling me that all night, im like 90% sure he's gay anyway. Plus he did it to same other girls too, like Ella and tessa."

"Oh, ok" he sounded annoyed, but not annoyed with me, just in general. Probably would rather be on the ride with that other girl.

After a few minutes the ride stoped and an we were at the top. We'd be one of the last to get off and id be stuck with him for longer, but then me just stayed there, not moving. The ride started to shake, THE RIDE STARTED TO SHAKE?

WAIT WHAT?! THE RIDE WAS SHAKING? AND LISTEN, I KNOW IM AFRAID OF HIGHTS AND ALL AND MAYBE IT ISN'T EVEN THAT BAD., BUT I SWEAR THE DAMN CART WAS MAKING SOME SICKENINGLY GRATING NOISE AND WAS. GONNA BREAK.

AND MAYBE, MAYBE THATS WHAT POSSESSED ME TO GRAB ONTO SANTIAGO LIKE A DAMN LIFE LINE, BUT SOMETHING SURE AS HELL DID. AND AS I SAT THERE THINKING ABOUT HOW THIS WAS IT, THISA IS HOW I DIE, THIS IS HOW MY WORLD FALLS APART, THERWE WAS ONE THING I HAD TO DO BEFORE I DIED, BECAUSE THERE WAS. NOTHING TO LOOSE RIGHT?!

"SANTIAGO! IM IN LOVE WITH YOU AND I HAVE BEEN FOR EIGHT DAMN YEARS!"

"Wait, What? WHAT?"

"AND I DONT WANNA DIIIIIIIEEEEEEE"

"Sofie, SOFIE! SOFIE WE AREN'T GONNA DIE!" He grabbed my wrists and held them in place for a moment before sliding his into a hand hold. "Sofie, we are gonna be fine, do you hear me", he took one hand and cuffed my cheek "Vas a estar bien, todo está bien".

"Wha- what"

"You're going to be ok, everything is ok" he pulled me into an awkward side hug as best he could with how we were sitting. He repeated the phrase and kissed my head, and continued to do so until the ride started moving again and until we got off of it.

As i stepped onto the ground he held my hand and led me out of the fair towards the bleachers. When we got to them and sat down he pulled me into a real hug. "You worry too much sofie" he held on for a little longer, and for a minute i thought he was only doing it because he felt bad for me, but after a minute or so when he pulled away he kissed me. AND ON THE LIPS THIS TIME TOO!

"I've been in love with you for a while now maybe not eight years, but awhile." He cupped my cheek again as he held my face. "You're just too gorgeous not too. I love so much about you as well, and i just want you to know that i mean that."

"But what about Catie?"

"What about her?"

"Well, like, aren't you two dating?"

"No"

"Talking?"

"Well, a little, but i dont know, she just isn't what i want, she isn't you."

"You' actually want me?"

"Yes! Of course i do sofie! And id be so damn lucky to get you, you dont even understand how in love with you i am."

"Santiago, please-"

He grabbed my hands and my chin forcing me to look at him. "I'M SERIOUS! What can i do to make you believe that i love you?"

"Weeeeelllllllllllllll... you could kiss me again."

"Bet"
