The Carnival Ride (pt.1)

After several short-lived hours of riding various roller coasters at the carnival, Phil eventually notices that they forgot one ride -The Himalayas.

  "Daaaaaaan! We forgot this ride!" Phil happily jumps and points a finger towards the roller coaster while smiling like a 5 year old kid.

  "I am going to feel sick, I went on every bloody ride with you!" Dan complains and closes his eyes, trying to avoid the ever spinning feeling in his brain.
 
  Phil didn't care. "Daniel Howell," he says with his serious tone, "you promised me that we were going on every ride at the carnival, are you saying you're going to break your promise?" He looks down at Dan who seems to be at the verge of passing out from the horrible brightness of the sun.

"Fine Phil, I'll go with you on the bloody ride." He finally answers.

At this, Phil grabs Dan's hand almost sprints towards the ride. He looks at Dan who seems to be looking really depressed.

"At least we get to sit" he tries to cheer him up.

Dan suddenly perks his head up on the word sit, thinking that this wasn't going to be as bad as he thought.

"Attention to all of the new riders, here are a couple of rules," the operator of the ride says while looking at the group of people about to go.

"First off, there should be only two people per cabin.
Second, the person sitting on the outer edge should weight more than the person sitting on the inner edge."

  Dan and Phil look at each other and silently confirm that Dan would sit on the outside.

'Why do we even need to sit like this' Dan wonders as he follows Phil to a cabin.

Both boys sit down in a rainbow cabin, seeing as to there were none others left.

As Dan puts his safety strap on, he looks at Phil who seems to be struggling with connecting the two pieces of material together.

"Need help with that?" he asks him.

Phil looks over at him and nods.

Dan leans over and connects the two pieces with ease. Phil looks at him like he had just performed a dark magic ritual.

"How - He starts asking, but is shortly cut off by the roar of the roller coaster's engine signaling that the ride is going to start.

Both straighten themselves up and get ready for the movement of the machine.

As the ride starts spinning, Dan looks over to see Phil looking like he is going to burst from all of the happiness held in his cute little smile.

What am I thinking Dan thought looking back.

As the ride started accelerating, Phil began moving towards Dan due to the force of the ever-increasing spinning.

Suddenly, Phil burst out into laughter after the ride gained even more speed.

"AHAHAHAH DAN I CAN'T HOLD ON ANY LONGER I'M SO SORRY" Phil yells while clutching onto the metal side bar like it's his life.

Dan joins with him and starts laughing like a hyena as Phil fails to hold on to the bar.

Suddenly, Dan feels a strong force push him against the side of the cabin.
He looks down and sees Phil pushed up against his chest still laughing.

But Dan stopped for one second. That one second. One god-damned second. The one when everything slows down. The one where Dan cannot hear the roar of the metal box they were moving in. The one where all focus was directed to the blue eyed, laughing boy pressed against his chest.
