Rhys holds a bag with maybe 20 prizes he has won for me. I told him I didn't need all of them but he insisted on playing every game he saw me look at. I couldn't help but look around so he played most of them. A guy was generous enough to give is a bag to carry everything in. I saw a big purple and green gorilla. My eyes lingered on it for a little too long.
"Do you want me to win that for you?" He asked hopefully.
"Yes." I said. He smiles and pulls me to the booth. It had a high basketball hoop at it.
"3 balls and you can get a large prize." The lady winks. The basketball hoop moves around and Rhys pays her. He shoots 2 balls and makes them both. An excited squeal leaves my lips. Rhys turns to me and shoots it and makes it. I look at him shocked. "Here you go." She gives me the gorilla.
"Rhys." Tears start.
"Are you ok? Do you need to go to the doctor? What's.." He starts and I hug him. He tensed before hugging me back.
"Thank you." I look up at him.
"The night isn't over yet." He pulls away wrapping an arm around my waist. I hug my bear tightly. I should get him something too. "Anything else you want?" He asked.
"I want to play something." I glance at him.
"Anything you want. Which one do you want to play?" He asked
"Umm.." I look around. I see a throwing baseball thing with a small bears as prizes. Simple harmless game.
"That's good. Let's go." He guides me to the game before I can say anything.
"Here you go pretty little lady." He hands me four balls after Rhys pays him. I throw them all and I barely hit anything! I pout and Rhys pays the man again.
"I'll help you." He says placing my bear beside us.
"This is hopeless." I mumble. Picking up the ball Rhys steps behind me and my stomach starts feeling weird and I blush.
"Go ahead." He says. I throw it and it literally goes nowhere. "Try again." I try again and it hits it a little.
"You're distracting me." I whisper.
"Sorry." He chuckles. "Go ahead it throw it again." He says moving away from me. I throw it and it hits one if the bottles but it doesn't fall.
"You aren't helping." I look back at him. He shrugs and comes close again.
"Relax. I'm not going to hurt you." He whispers. My body relaxes before I can even try. I take the ball again and Rhys holds the my wrist positioning it. Sparks run up my arm. "Throw." He commands and I do and it hits the center making everything fall.
"Choose your prize." The man says. I look along the bears.
"The one with the football." I point to it. He hands me the medium sized bear holding a football. I thank him and grab my bear. We walk towards the entrance. The sun was going down making the sky light up in pink and orange.
"Maybe we should go to eat." He whispers. My stomach growls and I blush. He opens the car door for me and I climb in.
"So what do you feel like eating?" He asked putting the bag in the back seat.
"It doesn't matter." I said.
"This day is about you. You pick anything and I'll get it for you." He starts the car.
"Burger king?" I asked
"Of course." He drives out of the parking lot.

"What's your favorite color?" Rhys asked as I eat my fries. We came back to the park after getting food. As before it was empty and it was kinda late but the sun was still out.
"Blue." I answer. He chuckles. I play with the small football bear in lap.
"Cute. What about your favorite subject in school?" He asked.
"All of them? They're all cool none of them are hard." I shug. "What's your favorite color?" I asked.
"Red, black and that pink your cheeks turn when you blush." He glanced at me and I blush. "Yeah that one." He smiles and I cover my face. Rhys phone rings and he answers putting it on speaker.
"What the fu*ck !! I texted you 20 times. My parents are blowing up my phone for Alexia. Where are you?" Justin voice comes out.
"We are at the park we meet up at." Rhys says.
"Is she ok? Did you do anything stupid?" Justin growls.
"I'm fine." I answer.
"Ok good I'll be there in a few." He says and the line dies.
"You have a game tomorrow right?" I asked.
"Yeah. You coming?" He asked.
"I don't know."
"You should come." He says.
"Maybe I will." I nod. "This is for you by the way." I hand him is bear. He looks at the bear then at me.
"For what?" He asked.
"Good luck for your games and thank you for today." I said.
"Thank you. I hope you had a good time." He smells the bear..
"Did you-- Why did you smell it?" I asked.
"Because it smells like you and you smell amazing." His eyes were a shade darker when he spoke.
"T-Thanks." I stuttered.
"You know what would give me the best luck?" He asked.
"No." I whisper.
"A kiss and you cheering for me." He stands picking up the trash.
"Come on Alexia. Get that blush off your face and lets go." Justin screams from his car.
"Good night Alexia." Rhys winks before leaving to his car. I sit there shock. A kiss ?
"Lexia." Justin snaps me out of it. I get in the car with my huge bear and bag of stuffed prizes.
