Next day
"Frankie come on let me." He whined.
"No not right now." I smiled.
"Please just five minutes." He said.
I gave up on the argument and took him across the street. I bought him ten tickets enough for at least two rides. He smiled and took the tickets.
"Let's go on that one." He said pointing to the Freak-Out
"Pup I can't ride it." I said.
"It's only five tickets take half of mine." He smiled handing me the tickets.
"Okay I guess I'll go." I said walking with him.
We got in line and stood there for a good five minutes. We got to the front of the line and Gee gave him the tickets pulling me behind. I helped him into the seat and then I jumped into the one next to him. He reached for my hand and I took it. The ride started and I tightened my grip on his hand. I had my eyes closed and Gee was laughing next to me. I felt like I was falling and its was freaking me out.
"Daddy open your eyes." He yelled.
"Pup, daddy's gonna throw up." I yelled.
"It's fine daddy." He laughed.
The ride stopped and and I quickly jumped off running to the trash can. I threw up everything I just ate and Gee came over to me. I sat down on the ground.
"Daddy are you okay?" He said worried.
"Yeah babe." I said hanging my head.
"Daddy I think it's time to go home." He said helping me up.
"Yeah let's go." I said walking to the car.
"I'm driving." He said rubbing my forehead.
"No I will." I said.
"No I'm driving." He argued.
"Fine, you can drive." I said giving up getting in the car.
"Thank you daddy." He said getting in the drivers seat.
"You know we've been arguing a lot today." I pointed out leaning back in my chair.
"I'm sorry." He whimpered starting the car.
"It's fine pup, I wouldn't trade it for anything." I smiled.
"Good, because I wouldn't either." He laughed.
"Pup do you ever get tired of me?" I asked.
"Once." He said.
"Really when?" I asked.
"When you left five years ago." He smiled.
"You little shit." I laughed.
"Hey Frankie?" He whispered.
"Yeah pup?" I said looking over at him.
"Can we talk when we get home?" He asked.
"Yes of course." I smiled.
I saw tears forming in his eyes and it hurt. I wiped his eyes and he smiled looking over at me. We pulled up to Mikey's and I stumbled out of the car.
"Daddy are you okay?" He continued to ask me.
"Yes pup I'm fine don't worry." I smiled. "The real question is are you okay?" I asked.
"Yeah, daddy it's fine." He smiled tears evident in his eyes.
"Pup we are talking when we get inside." I said.
