*Amsterdam, 9AM*
Your POV:

It's a normal saturday morning. You are already awake, but you are still lying in bed. While you are watching TV you hear your cellphone ringing. Without taking a look at the screen you answer the call.
"Hey."
"Hi, how are you?", hearing the Dutch accented voice makes immediately a smile form on your lips.
"I am fine and you?"
"Same here. So what are you doing today?" "Hmmm nothing, I guess. Why?"
"Well I have this weekend off and I wanted to ask you, if you want to go to the amusement park with me?"

You actually like amusement parks. To you they are magical places, because of the colourful sparkling lights and all the stuff.
But there is one problem.
You hate roller coasters, you really do.
Once you rode one and you felt sick after it. Nevertheless you want to go with him.

"Yeah sure. So when should we meet?" "About 6 in the evening? I will pick you up." "Okay. I'll be ready."
"Okay, see you."
You hang up with a huge grin on your face. You can't wait to see him.

5PM:
You are sitting in your room listening to your favourite songs and preparing for the date with Martin. You want to look good for him, so you apply some make-up. After putting some concealer and powder on your face, you put some mascara on your lashes. Just a little bit of lipgloss and your make-up is done.
You straightened your hair before, so you just comb them a little bit and you are finished.

There is only one thing left - the outfit.
You open your closet and look at your clothes. After some time you take a black crop top and some skinny jeans out of your wardrobe and put them on.
Not much time passes and you hear the doorbell ring. You rush to the hallway and open the door. A smiling Martin stands in front of you. He wears some black pants, a black T-shirt and a dark blue sweater.
His blue-grey eyes look at you.

"You look great.", he says with a smirk. "Thank you.", you answer blushing.
Quickly you grab your purse and follow him to his car. His car is a black BMW, it's the first time that you really fancy a car.
It looks great. He opens you the door and you get in. The first thing you realize is the scent of his cologne, it smells really good so you take a deep breath.

"Feel free, you can choose the music.", he tells as he gets in the car.
Avicii's "Hey Brother" is playing, you like this song so you just listen to it.
Oh, if the sky comes falling down, for you
There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do, you sing along to the song.
"You also like Avicii?", he asks you.
"Yes, he is one of my favourite artists."
"I guess I could get you some tickets for his concerts."
"That's nice of you, but you don't have to." "And what if I go with you?"
"I guess I can't say no?", you smile.

After some time you arrive at the amusement park, it's even bigger than you expected it to be. Many roller coasters stand out and million of little lights make this place look like a little wonderland. You both get out of the car and make your way to the entry.
The weather is beautiful. Though the sun has already started to disappear, it's comfortably warm.

After walking a little bit around Martin pulls you excitedly to one of the biggest roller coasters.
"Can we please ride this?", his voice full with excitement.
You feel the fear rising inside of you, but Martin's gaze makes you decide different. "Okay, but only this one."

After having bought the tickets you go to the wagon and take a seat. A man secured you with the belts and you were about to ride the biggest roller coaster you've ever ridden. Right now there is no turning back anymore. The fear rises even more now and you feel your heartbeat getting faster.

"Y/N, is everything ok?", Martin asks you with his soft voice. He must have recognized your fear.
"I...I am afraid of roller coasters.", you confess a little bit embarrassed.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I didn't want to. You really wanted to ride it." Suddenly you feel his warm hand holding yours firmly. You raise your gaze to meet Martin's eyes.
"You don't have to be scared. I am here.", he tries to comfort you.

Eventually your heartbeat slows a little bit down and your anxiety disappears.
The wagons start to move, they seem to move up to the sky.
As they have reached the top, everything stops. You try to avoid looking down, because it is really high. You feel Martin holding your hand really tight - and now you know why. The rollercoaster is moving again, really fast. You scream so loud that you can only hear your own screaming.
After many loops and curves the wagon finally stops. You have your eyes closed, not willing to open them. But the longer the wagon stands still, the more you feel relieved.

"Wow this was a hell of a ride!", you hear Martin saying amused. You open your eyes to catch him smiling like a little child.
"This was terrible!", you answer still high on adrenaline.
"I liked it."
"Well, at least you liked it.", you reply smiling. You get out of the wagon and exit the roller coaster.

After you have calmed a little bit down you order fries and a coke. Stuffed with junk food you go to a bench and sit down.
While you still eat your fries Martin seems to look at something.
"What are you looking at?", you ask him.
"I'll be right back.", he says and gets up.
"Wait, where are you going?", you grab his arm not wanting to let him go.
"It's a surprise.", he answers with a smirk.
He turns around and walks away. You stay seated on the bench and finish up your food.

Gradually it's getting dark, the sun has already disappeared and all the lights are shining now. Martin is still not back, where could he be? You decide to look for him, so you get up and make your way through the amusement park. Suddenly you feel a grip on your shoulder.

Confused you turn around, it's Martin.
He stands in front of you with a smile on his face.
"Where have you been?", you wonder.
"It doesn't matter. Y/N, I've got something for you.", he tells and holds your hand now.
Okay, what is going on now?

You realize that he's hiding something behind his back. You barely see anything, but you can tell that it's something huge.
"Martijn, what do you mean?", you don't know what to think, nobody has ever suprised you. Finally he shows you what he's been hiding. It's a huge teddy bear with a babyblue ribbon on his left ear. You can't belive what you see, it's adorable.
"Oh my god, Martijn...THANK YOU!!", you squeak and hug him.

10PM:
After spending some more time at the amusement park, you decide to drive close to your home and go there for a little walk.
You promised your mom to be home by 11, so you are walking to your home now.
Though it's a nice summer night, it got quite cold. In your hurry and excitement you left your leather jacket at home. Here you are now and you are cold. Martin seems to notice it and puts his sweater around your shoulders. "Now you won't be cold anymore.", he says and pulls you closer to him.
"And what about you?"
"Don't worry. It's okay."

You two arrive at your home and stand in front of your door. You would rather stay with him, you feel so comfortable around him. That's why you don't open the door.
"You better go.", he says and shows you the time - 10:55.
"When will we meet again?"
"Soon as possible."
"Thank you Martijn.", you whisper and give him a peck on his cheek.
"Good night."
"Good night."
Before closing the door you look at his smile, it simply made your entire day.
As you walk past a mirror, you see something dark blue around your shoulders.
It is Martin's sweater.

Great, I forgot to give it back to him.
But this is a reason, why I have to meet again.
