As it starts to get darker, the parks lights go on. A man on the intercom says that the park will be closing in a half hour.

"Come on we have one last ride." Elijah says taking my hand and we run over to a ride called 'drop of doom.'

"This one is scary! I feel like I'm going to die!" I whine.

"Come on babe I want to show you what the city looks like at night." He pleads.

"Okay,fine." I give in making him excited.

We jump in line and it goes pretty quick. Soon we're entering the gate and sitting in the single row with 4 other people next to us, 2 on either side of me and him.

Once everyone was buckled and secured they lifted us up slowly. We got to the top of the ride and over looked the park and city.

My eyes were shut tight but Elijah poked me until I opened them. I was at loss for words.
"It's beautiful." Was all I said before we were dropped at an alarming pace.

I squeezed Elijah's hand. "We're slowing back down, you can give my hand the circulation back." Elijah laughs.

"Sorry." I let go and look around again.

Before my sight was ruined by seeing a bunch of strangers and the gate I got to take a mental picture of one of the most beautiful sights I've seen.

I don't know what it is about seeing city lights at night but it sure is beautiful.

"How was it?" Elijah smirks as we walk out of the park.

"It was exhilarating." I say breathlessly.

"In other words you liked it?" He chuckles.

"I loved it, I loved being here especially since I'm with you." I smile looking up at him as I hug his arm.

His smile lights up my entire world, he rests his arm around my shoulders and he kisses the top of my head as we walk. my arms snake around his waist, making me walk weird but I don't care because I'm holding onto him.

By the time we get to the car I'm dead tired. My feet ache so bad so sitting down feels like heaven.

My phone starts to ring and it's my sister.

"Hey sis,what's up?" I answer nonchalantly.

"Are you coming tonight?" She asks, I look at the clock and it's going on 9:30.

" I want to but I don't want to make you drive two hours to pick me up. It'll be so late because it's going to take like an hour and a half to get back home." I say fiddling with the buttons on the door.

"Where are you right now?"

"Im leaving six flags, I came here on a date." I say shyly.

"OOOHHH I NEED DETAILS BUT, six flags is like a half hour away from my house why don't you ask your date if he's fine with meeting us somewhere?" My sister says excited.

"Hold on," I tell her as I turn to Elijah.

"Would you be okay with meeting up with my sister we aren't far from her house and she can meet us half way." I ask him with puppy eyes.

"Yeah that's fine, we can go out for dinner if she would like to have dinner with us." He says sweetly.

"Would you want to come to dinner with us?" I ask excitement clear in my voice.

"You know Shannon and I are always hungry." She laughs.

"True, okay meet us at Denny's." I smile.

"Gotcha, see you in 20." She says as a goodbye.

We hang up and the phone and Elijah is sitting there gawking at me.

"What?" I laugh nervously.

"Nothing, I just like how you take charge so there isn't a 'I don't know it's whatever you want to do' thing." He chuckles shaking his head.

"I just hate when people do that it's not that hard to make a decision." Laughing I buckle myself waiting for Elijah to start the car.

It takes 15 minutes to get to Denny's from six flags, and 5 minutes to get a table in the almost packed restaurant. Just as my butt hits the cushion I see my sisters thick, chest length brown hair up in a messy bun, her flawless face without makeup, a red Adidas sweater, black leggings and her worn out white vans.

Shannon follows behind Emilia with her long, wavy, blond hair flows behind her and her loose, dark grey muscle tee moves with her body and her black leggings match my sisters, I can hear her Nike sneakers squeak against the tile flooring but stops once they're on the carpet.

Elijah and I get out of the booth and greet my sister and her girlfriend.

"Emilia this is Elijah; my boyfriend, Elijah this is Emilia; my sister and this is her girlfriend Shannon." I smile then continue to hug the two of them.

"It's nice to meet you two." Elijah shakes their hands and he sits down so I can. Emilia and Shannon sit across from us.

"So, how old are you Elijah?" Emilia asks interrogating him.

"27 almost 28." He replies hesitantly.

My sister slowly turns her head towards me and Shannon see the look on Emilia's causing her to bury her face in the menu.

"That's quite an age gap sis." Emilia fakes a laugh.

"Mom and dad are 15 years apart so put a cork in it." I say sipping on the water they brought out.

"I can't even object to that." She shrugs.

"I hope my age isn't a problem, I don't plan on having any bad intentions with your sister." Elijah tries to speak carefully.

"I just hate seeing my little sister grow up and dating but you seem like a good guy so I'll let you off the hook for now, but remember I know everything." My sister emphasizes the word 'everything.' Elijah nods and takes a gulp of his water.

"So what are you ordering babe?" Shannon asks Emilia.

"Peanut butter and chocolate pancakes." Shannon replies glancing at Emilia then at her lips, giving her a quick peck.

"That sounds great honestly." I say looking at the picture. The three laugh at me while Elijah and Emilia continue looking at the menu.

The waiter comes by a few moments later to get our drink and food orders. After we order we continue talking about anything and everything including Emilia and Shannon's plan for a baby.

The food comes out 15 minutes later and we dig in. After we eat, the bill is split and Elijah payed for me food since he said we were still in a date and Emilia and Shannon payed for theirs.

Walking out of the restaurant I kissed Elijah good night then walked with Emilia and Shannon to their car.
