It had been two weeks since Luke finally told Mackenzie how he felt and Luke was more than excited to be able to go out without worrying about Mackenzie, now that he knew he'd be allowed to save her without her freaking out at him. Feldmann had mentioned that they needed to do something fun so he suggested going to the fair to celebrate Halloween. Luke felt that Mackenzie would be safe with all of them there, including the girlfriends so he agreed. They all piled in their cars and headed 45 minutes out of the city to a little fair that had all sorts of plastic Halloween decorations and sound effects playing.
"I want to go in the haunted house." Nia said, tugging at Calum's hand. "Come on, we're going in the haunted house." She persisted.
"Let's do that at the end. I want to go on the roller coasters before it gets dark." Michael rolled his eyes. "You never start with a haunted house. You act like you've never been here before."
"Hey, cool it, Clifford." Calum warned, grabbing Michael's bicep, pinching him. Michael rolled his eyes again and pulled his arm away.
"Not my fault your whore is ignorant." Michael muttered shrugging his shoulders and walking ahead with John and Becca. Mackenzie linked her arm with Ashton's and Bryana's as they walked toward the roller coaster line. Luke walked behind them, glaring at Ashton's arm as it was looped with Mackenzie's. That should have been him. He should be able to wrap his arms around her and make her smile from just a stupid joke in her ear or planting a kiss in a spot she was ticklish. He wasn't supposed to be watching as his best friend and Bryana made her smile and laugh at the stupid things they said. It was supposed to be him.
"I don't want to ride this." Mackenzie sighed, looking up at the large roller coaster. "It's too big and it goes upside down.."
"Aw, don't worry, love." Ashton chuckled. "Luke's obviously gonna hold your hand the whole time. Right, Luke?" Ashton smirked at him and Luke huffed.
"You're not helping." Luke poked his tongue out and stood behind them in the line.
"If she doesn't want to go on the roller coaster, then why is she here?" Nia rolled her eyes. "She never wants to do anything with us. She's too busy studying all the time."
"That's because, unlike you, I want to do things with my life that aren't sucking dicks that aren't my boyfriend's." Mackenzie snapped and Nia tensed next to Calum.
"Excuse me?" Calum scoffed, looking from Mackenzie to Nia. "Is she right?"
"What? Cally, no. She's making shit up, of course. I'd never suck anyone else's dick." Nia turned and glared at Mackenzie. Mackenzie shrugged and moved up with Ashton.
"Whatever, it's not my business what you do with your mouth." Mackenzie turned to Luke and looked up at him. "Are you going to sit with me? You know I don't like rides like this." she said softly.
"Of course, I'm sitting with you." Luke chuckled softly. "I wouldn't trust you with anyone else." She smiled softly, but it faded as the group made it up to the ride. "You don't have to ride it if you don't want to. I can sit down here with you." Luke took Mackenzie's hand as Ashton let go of her arm.
"Please." She nodded, squeezing Luke's hand gently. Luke pressed his lips to her temple, but he could feel her leaning away from the affection.
"We're gonna sit this one out, you guys have fun." Luke said to the rest of the the group, looking to find a picnic table that they could sit at and watch their friends from.
"Of course, she just doesn't want to do things that are fun." Nia rolled her eyes.
"Nia, shut up. She doesn't want to ride the roller coaster, so she isn't." Bryana defended, rolling her eyes.
