F I V E- Oldie

"You gotta ride this!"

He's insane.

Looking at the sign, The Tangle was over 200 hundred feet tall, and had a series of twists and turns that would "turn you into a spaghetti noodle". Reading further, there was a disclaimer that I shouldn't go on the ride if I'm pregnant, have major heart condition, or experience asthma.

Harry smiled, and got us a place in line.

"I'm not riding this..." I looked up at the large roller coaster. I looked just in time to see one girl throw up on herself, and some landed on the ground. "Come on Layla, don't be scared. I'm with you!"

First he'd gotten us separated from the rest of our friends, now he wants me to go on this roller coaster?

Harry was out of his mind.

I pushed my glasses up on my nose and sighed softly.

I had picked the wrong day not to wear my contacts, and I'm pretty sure I was going to pay for that.

We got closer to the front of the line, and I could almost hear my heart beating in my chest. Here I was, about to go on a very large and scary roller coaster, with Harry, one of Edward's friends.

"You must be scared, you sure are squeezing my hand..."

I released my grip on Harry's hand, feeling my cheeks burn a light red.

"Sorry..." I mumbled.

He smiled, shaking his head," It's no problem , to be honest, I'm a bit nervous too."

I had to admit, Harry was pretty cute. But there was a slim chance we'd talk after this.

I barely had time to come today, and I'd be right back in my books when I get home.

We were now in the front of the line, and Harry handed the man out two tickets. He opened the gate, and Harry let me enter first. I stepped over the throw up on the ground, going to take a seat on one of the cars. Harry got in next to me, and pulled the steel down over our laps.

My hands we're shaking and he noticed that.

"If you don't want to ride, I can tell the man to let you out, love." He looked at me.

I shook my head gripping the handle. "I'm f-fine."

"Are you sure about that?"

He raised and eyebrow at me, and I nodded, biting my lower lip.

The cart shook a bit, and the we raced down the track.

I screamed, releasing the handle and covering my eyes.

"Oh my god please let me off!" I screamed.

I was shaking all over, and I peeked through my eyes.

We were coming to a steep drop, and I shook my head.

"No, no, no, no..."

We dropped and I squirmed around, feeling my insides flop around. I was going to be hoarse from screaming so loud and so much, but I wanted to live to get off this ride. I wanted to live, god dammit!

I felt a arm wrap around me, and I looked up at Harry. "I gotcha, you aren't going to die with me."

I lean into him still covering my eyes with my hands.

The ride was over quicker than I expected, and besides me screaming my heart out... It wasn't as bad as I suspected. Getting out the cart, my legs were noodles, just like the sign had said. "Oh god.."

Harry turned back around and looked at me, frowning. "Can you walk?"

I shrugged and without warning, he picked me up. I protested, but he ignored my request, and put me on his back. He had a nice grip on my thighs, and I wrapped my arms around his neck. "It's your turn to choose something, since I dragged you on that roller coaster."

I looked around, searching for something interesting.

Then I spotted it.

A plush bunny.

It was adorable.

"There!" I chimed, pointing to the stand, Target Practice.

I heard him suck his teeth, "Oh that? I could win you every stuffed animal at that stand, love."

He put me down, and I followed him as he walked over to the stand.

"Here comes the happy couple, eh! Is this manly man going to win his princess a prize?"

Harry sneered, "I'll win all of them for her."

"Ooh!" The clown running the stand asked,"Are you sure about that, young man? I wouldn't want to embarrass you in front of your girlfriend, here."

Harry growled, and pulled out three pounds from his wallet. "I wouldn't want to make you look like a fool, clown." He handed the clown the money, and the clown placed five balls in front of him. "I'll give you two extra, just in case you need it."

I giggled.

I could tell Harry's blood was boiling.

Harry picked up the first baseball, and he tossed it at the target. Harry hit it in the center, and a small bell rung. "Ooh maybe I underestimated you, sir."

Harry took a step back a bit, and tossed it, hitting the next target in the center as well.

I clapped, and Harry looked at me,"which animal do you want, hm?"

I softly smiled,"The bunny, please."

He tossed the third ball, and like I expected, it hit it in the center. A siren went off, and Harry grinned, ear to ear, showing of his perfect dimples. The clown sighed, and reached up to get my animal. Harry handed it to me, and I hugged it close.

"Thanks Harry."

"Not a problem, anything for a beautiful girl."

***

I have to say, I had a really fun time.

Harry and I rode all the roller coasters in the park, and he won me another stuffed animal, a tiger cub. He said I had to have it 'to keep the bunny company, for those cold nights.' We also tried all the snacks, and I learned that a hot dog, a burger, and a funnel cake do not mix.

Harry almost got us kicked out because he thought another clown was catching an attitude with him, and I had to break them apart.

Edward pulled up to my house, and I grabbed my bag, and my two stuffed animals, which I named Tom and Jerry.

"Thanks for today, Ed."

I was in a few minutes before curfew, so I should be clear with my parents.

Ed smiled, "No problem.

I put my key in the door, starting to turn the knob when Ed stopped me.

"Hey, what's your cell number?"

I looked over my shoulder at him, sighing.

Why would Edward need my number? He already has it, and he better not tell me he lost it. "Don't you have my number I questioned, crossing my arms, turning to him fully.

"It's not for me."

"Then who is it for?"

This boy was beginning to get on my nerves. Just tell me who needed my number, heck, I'll give it to them myself!

"It's for Harry. He asked me to get it from you. He didn't want me to tell you, but he was afraid you wouldn't give it to him."

Really?

"He wants to go to the amusement park again," Edward smirked, "this time, only you and him."
