*Leo, who is she?

"See, this is why I told you to dress comfortably,"
Leo said as we stood right at the top of a carnival with many people and all the fun rides you can ever get. I guess he was right, you needed to dress really comfortable, nobody would want to go on a rollercoaster with a sticky suit. I fake his cocky smirk saying...
"Well, I'm cute in white,"
"The opposite of cute is you wearing all white and me wearing all black, we both look Dumbarton, Princess,"
"Opposite of cute is you wearing yellow and me wearing pink, Shaggy,"
I say as I make my way towards the crowd. I turn to look at him and he had a horrified look. Ha,Ha! He was thinking of the colour's I had put together. I giggled at his and he followed after me. I run towards the long line of people who were heading for the ride of terror, it was almost like a rollercoaster.
"Leo, I want this ride,"
"Well, do me a favour and stand in the que for the two of us, I'll be back,"
I nodded and he left. The line was so long and it kind of made me tired. The sun had not gone down yet, according to my weird vision, it was halfway down. The people who were still on the scary monster seemed to be having the time of their life's. It made me so excited when I saw their screams and laughs. They looked so cool, inspiring me to go on so baldly. I began counting the people in front of me. Lucky!!, me and Leo made 10 for the next round, and the ride could contain 16, so we were next. The people on the ride came out, some of them could not even balance, the others were just laughing at ridiculous things. The people in front of me began to move in and I was stopped.
"Woah slow down there, Beautiful, what is your name,"
"Elizabeth and I'm with..."
"No babe, I wanted to know your name, have you been on this ride before, you know, this is crap, I can take you to the ride of you life,"
This ginger haired guy was blocking my way. He kept whispering into my ear. I couldn't do much because he was the guy to let us into the rollercoaster. He was the gateman, and I could do nothing but listen to his terrible pickup lines and hope Leo is around. He wiggles his eyebrows and leans even closer making me step back. The people behind me were so upset the kept on cursing the guy and me. So here I am frozen and looking at this guy who keeps rubbing my cheeks like I was a slut or something.
"You want that ride babe?"
"Princess, you are pregnant, you cannot go on this ride. Junior Leo wouldn't like it,"
"Leo,"
He pulls me out of the line and away from the people. The gateman had a priceless shock, his colours drained. I turned back to Leo, I thought he would be smirking at his stupid trick but he was actually upset. His nostrils flared and he clenched his jaw. Worst part was that he was holding me so tight walking way too fast for my liking and my legs were so short to even catch up to his. I became upset and stopped moving, he stopped to look at me. I sulked at him and his expression turned soft.
"I wanted that ride, yeah your tricked worked and the guy stopped, but Leo, I still want to go the ride"
"No,"
"Were you jealous?"
"Resentment," he said dragging me again
I stopped again irratated by his response and him not wanting me to go on the ride. This time he turned his whole body and moved closer to me. We were just inches apart and my heart raced at our distance. I could never get used to this feeling. He lifted my chin up with his warm fingers and I met his eyes. They were so beautiful, almost gold of colour from the reflection of the falling orange sun. He frowned and his eyes looked apologetic.
