Chapter 36: Adventure

*Claire's POV*

~2 weeks later ~

"Let's go." Ashton yelled, slapping my thighs in front of him.

We were at his place and just hanging out watching tv. He was sitting behind me, both of his legs on either side of me, on the floor.

"Where." I laughed, turning to face him.

" Everywhere! Anywhere! I don't care. We just need to get out." he threw his hands in the air.

"It's almost 3:30."

"I don't care. We can go to the arcade or the beach or the playground or... Jupiter! Just come on." he said, getting up and running towards the door.

I followed him there, but I didn't put on my shoes. I just stood in front of him, my hands on my hips, as I watched him put on his black vans.

"C'mon baby. I'll take you on a real date . It can be romantic or cheesy or just really shitty. I just don't care anymore. Just come on." he begged me, grabbing both my hands and swinging them back and forth.

"Fine." I groaned.

"Great!" He said excitedly.

I sat down and put my white converse on while he went to go search for the car keys.

These past 2 weeks have been uneventful... well, kind of.

Luke has been texting Rebecca uncontrollably, but they still haven't got together.

Michael has always been hanging out with Katiana at school and texting her during his free time. I heard he asked her on a date tomorrow. Or was that tonight?

Calum and Chloe have been together all the time, just doing their own thing.

Brooklyn hasn't spoken one word to me, which I'm kinda happy about.

School is shitty as usual.

And as for me and Ash, we've been eating and hanging out. Not much.

"So where are we going." I asked while Ashton pretty much dragged me outside to the car.

"Anywhere. Everywhere. Wherever you want, babe."

"What if I don't know." I asked.

"I'll help you with that." he smirked, getting in the car.

We drove for about 10 minutes, pointing out a few places, but nothing that was super exciting.

Then I saw it.

"Ash." I poked him.

"Yes, baby."

"How about we go there." I said pointing out the window.

"Yeah. That's fine with me." he said, making a u turn and parking the car in a random spot.

It was a carnival. Not a big one. But a really small one. With a tiny Ferris wheel and other kiddie rides. There were games and food and families and couples walking around with prizes.

He grabbed my hand softly while he bought the tickets. I insisted on buying my own, but he refused. Typical.

"Where first, princess? The Ferris wheel?" he asked me.

"Ferris wheel?"

"You aren't scared of heights, are you?"

"Maybe just a little." I said, showing how little with my fingers.

"Fine. We don't have to go on if you don't want to."

"I can try." I shrugged.

"Just remember. I'm right beside you, ok?"
