----------------->

James had been pining after Y/N for months. He saw her at one of his favorite stores once, and kept going back to see her again. They hit it off instantly. Of course, he thought she was blind to his advances and his flirty comments. Oh, she was not.

He had a great idea. He was gong to take them both to the carnival. It comes through every so often and he enjoyed them, so why not drag her out? He messaged her one day during her shift, asking if she wanted to grab ice cream. She agreed and they walked to the ice cream shop just a few stores down.

"Y/N, are you busy tomorrow?" He asked, taking a bite of chocolate ice cream.

"I should be, why?" she replied, taking a bite of her ice cream.

"There's a place I want to take you." he replies.

"Is this- are you asking me on a date, James?" she teases.

"Do you want it to be?"

"Yeah, probably."

"What does that supposed to mean?" he playfully yells. She laughs.

"Yes, dummy, I'll go on a date with you." she replies, smearing some ice cream onto his nose. He smiles. They both make small talk about their days until they finish their ice cream. James walks her to her car before returning to his, excited about tomorrow.

James returned home, showering and cleaning himself up for the next day.

She was more excited than he was, oddly enough. She also prepared herself for the next day, barely being able to sleep with all of the excitement in the air.

James picked a Saturday, meaning the carnival would open early. Although he wanted her to see the beauty in the lights that come on at night, he wanted to see her as soon as he could.

As soon as James woke up, which was mid morning, he texted Y/N, asking if she had a specific time. He even offered to have her over earlier for some lunch and a round or two of video games. She agreed and quickly changed, doing her hair and some light makeup. James quickly rolled out of bed and threw a t-shirt and his nice jeans on.

He walked into the kitchen, making a small meal for the two of them. Y/N arrived just after James finished plating their food. Her small knocking almost didn't make it into the kitchen. Thankfully, she also shot him a text, which he read, and waited for her at the door. He opens the door and sees her beautiful, smiling face. She also brought flowers.

"Hey." He says, pulling her into a tight hug. "Flowers?" He gave her a confused look.

"Is it not customary to bring your date flowers at the door?" Y/N argued. He sighed.

"I guess. Come in, I made some lunch for us." he agrees. He closes the door behind her and takes the bouquet of daisies from her, leading her to the table. "Sit somewhere. I'll put these down." Y/N takes a seat at the table while James fixes the flowers to be placed in a vase.

He joined her at the table, scarfing down their meal consisting of some sandwiches. "I don't know what it is, but these are really good." Y/N says, her mouth full. James smiles.

"Thanks. I added some spit and snot. Glad you like it." he jokes. She laughs.

When they finish, he clears their plates. "What do you want to play?" he asks, motioning to his collection.

She picked up some wrestling game James had placed on the table. "This work?" she asks.

"Sure. I'll set up controllers." James replies, grabbing two controllers.

After they played several rounds, they noticed the time. It was nearing 4 in the afternoon, and the carnival wasn't exactly close. They finished one more round before closing everything down. "Come on. We should go." James states, slipping his shoes on.

Y/N agrees and also slips her shoes back on. James grabs her hand, leading her out of the house. He locked the door behind them and led her to his car. Being a gentleman, he opened her door for her and closed it behind her, entering the driver's side.

As he pulls out of the driveway, Y/N speaks. "You still haven't told me where we're going."

"I know." he replies, focusing on the road.

"Will I ever know?"

"You'll know when we get there."

The rest of the ride consisted of singing along to cheesy pop music. Close to 5pm, the carnival was in sight. "James..." she trailed off.

He smiled. "That," he says, pointing. "Is where we're going."

"No way! I love carnivals. Plus, they make great date venues." she replies. She picks up James' hand that was previously resting on the gearshift. He smiles as their fingers intertwine. He pulls into the parking lot and parks the car, escorting her into the venue.

James purchases tickets for each of them. They held each other's hand as they wandered around the grounds.

They played a game of ring toss. James won a small cow for her.

"Aw, he's so cute!" Y/N exclaims.

"I think I'll put him in the office." James replies. She gives him a puppy dog face. He sighs. "Fine. But I have something to tell you." He passed the stuffed animal to her.

She looked at him, eager to know what he had to say. He turned to her. "You know, Y/N I have liked you ever since I laid eyes on you in that store. I don't know what it is about you. But you drive me insane, in a good way. I can't imagine my life without you. I had to drop everything and get your number because I need you in my life, Y/N. You mean so much to me. Will you be my girlfriend?"

A blush spread across her cheeks. No words came out, although she attempted to speak. She could only nod as he pulled her into a tight hug. He placed a kiss on her forehead.

They ended the night on the Ferris wheel, Y/N tucked into his arms.
