Forever

Chapter 25:

The day went by fast. I couldn’t contain how excited I was.

I ended up going to sleep early, which worked great for me. My mom had told me the night before to sleep early so that I could get enough rest.

I woke up to the sound of a hair dryer and some sort of music playing. Groaning, I rolled around on my bed and sat up, looking around. Almost everyone was awake and getting ready.

"Why didn't you guys wake me up?" I asked as I rushed to stand up.

"You already have a boyfriend, so you have no one to impress." Kiera replied, " You don't need to look nice."

"Come on guys," I groaned.

"You're not going on a date right?" Camille laughed. 

"You guys shouldn't be listening to our conversations," I laughed. 

"It's kinda hard not to when you and Nick talk to loud!" Alyssa exclaimed.

I let out a loud fake laugh before heading to the washroom to take a shower and get ready for the upcoming Disney World day. I changed into a dark blue romper and put on a pair of black toms. I stood in the washroom straightening and fixing my hair.

“I expect you and Nick to be properly behaved.” Alyssa said sarcastically said as she stood at the door.

“What are you talking about?” I said with a smile.

“I’m kidding!” Alyssa smiled. “Has he tried to kiss you?”

“No!”

“Why?!”

“I don’t know… I don’t want to take things too fast. He probably doesn't want to either."

“Good. Now I’m expecting you two to be extra cute today.” She laughed.

I finished straightening my hair then brushed it out, trying to take out the final knots. 

“You’re a loser.” I said walking out of the washroom. 

"You think everyone is a loser," she rolled her eyes.

"I call Nick a loser all the time," I laughed.

"Just be cute with him, okay? Make me fan girl." She winked.

Once we were all done getting ready, we took a few pictures together, making sure to look cute for instagram. Our poses went from duck face, triangle face and even a few derps. After about half an hour of picture taking, we decided to head downstairs to meet the parents, who were all waiting in the lobby.

"You guys are finally here," my mom said. "We texted you a few times and you didn't reply."

"I saw them, but I forgot to reply. But we're here right?!" I said excitedly.

"Took you guys long enough," Mikey whispered as he shook his head.

Nick hit him in the back of the head with his hat, then shook his head with a smile.

“Let’s go!” We all exclaimed.

We walked into the Magic Kingdom. It was packed. I don’t know what it was- maybe because I was with my family, my friends, and maybe it was because I was with him. But once I walked into the Magic Kingdom, a burst of happy exploded inside me. It lived up to its expectation. It was the happiest place on earth.

I walked around excitedly like a 5 year old girl. I ran around taking pictures with the princesses and the Disney characters. I was with my friends the whole time because the adults trusted us enough to let us go around. (Probably because they gave us all walkie-talkies).

“Look! It’s a gift shop!” Alyssa exclaimed.

"Oh, I'm gonna spend all my money." Camille murmured.

We all ran to the giftshop, looking through the windows at the things that would be inside.

There were a bunch of Mikey Mouse hats, pens, books, shirts. Literally everything that you'd expect in a Disney gift shop.

Nick and I tried on some of those Mickey Mouse ears, making ridiculous faces at each other in the process. He suggested that we take a few pictures together, which made me giggle considering I'd usually be the one asking to talk selfies. I was happy he put up with me- I was such a cam-whore.

We walked out with a few hats and stuffed toys. Suddenly, the long haired princess caught my eye. She was standing by a ride, taking pictures and talking to little kids. I sprinted towards her, almost shoving kids out of the way.

Nick gently grabbed my arm and pulled me back with a laugh.

“It’s Rapunzel!” I exclaimed.

“Ariana. You’re adorable. Let those kids go first.” He lifted me up and brought me to the back of the line. 

Finally we got to the front and I got my picture with Rapunzel. Nick and I got a picture with her, being cute and derpy. After that, we joined everyone else, who were all taking pictures of their gift shop haul.

“What are we gonna ride next?” Kiera asked.

“We need to ride space mountain!” They all exclaimed.

We around thepark looking for the ride. Finally, we saw it in distance. They all sprinted towards it, leaving me alone in the back. I nervously followed behind them, finally catching up to them as they waited in the line.

“Are you okay?” Nick asked concerned.

“Um, no. I’ve never actually been on a roller coaster…” I admitted, "And this one doesn't exactly look like the greatest first roller coaster."

“Are you serious? You’ll be fine.” He said with a smile.

The line seemed to be moving way more quickly than I wished it would. It seemed like they wanted me to go onto the ride.

“I’m actually really scared, Nick.” I said.

“Don’t worry.” He said as he sat in the roller coaster.

I followed him, sitting beside him and preparing myself for the worst. I closed my eyes, then felt someone grasp my hand. I opened my eyes to see Nick smiling at me, and his hand holding my hand tightly.
