I found myself day dreaming more about Brent and doodling heats in my note books. I hate the fact that I'm falling for him. But what the hell was that thing with his dad? What happened? I don't actually expect him to open up when even I won't so I just don't ask him about it.

"Earth to Kayla!" Hanna shouted

I blinked a few times.

"What is going on with you?" Mariah asks

I pick at my salad. "Nothing."

"Is it because of Nika?" Melissa asks

"No"I semi lied. I still feel like I'm responsible for what happened "should I be?"

"You didn't hear?" Misha gasps

"They're pulling the plug" Megan explains

"What? When?" I ask

"Monday after school, her dad just couldn't pay for it anymore" Hanna says in the verge of tears.

I shake my head "what a shame"

-

"Brent" I grown from the bathroom. Why can't he put the cap back on the toothpaste?

"I'm never gonna do it!" He laughs "this three turns are too much work!"

I sugih putting in my jean shorts, a bandeau and a muscle tank top that is all black and has a batman symbol on it. I walk out and grab my black vans out of the closet and slip them on.

"Why do girls have so many shoes then never wear them?" He chuckles at my worn out shoes.

"These are my favorite" I pout laying down on the bed next to him. "Why don't you like your dad?"

"Why don't you like talking about your feelings?" He retorts.

"We're getting no where" I mumble

"Come on" he summons. We walk down to the festival where there where a lot of lights and music.

"One blue cotton candy please" Brent orders and pays. We find a small little bench and pull our stringy, yet fluffy cotton candy out of the bag.

"Hey" Cameron greets us while Mariah plops down on the bench with me.

"What's up?" Brent nods

"This girl ate too much and went on too many spinning rides" he smiles

"I had fun though" she smiles

"Even when you are vomiting rainbows?"

Mariah replies by sticking her tongue out.

"Here" Cameron gives Brent some red tickets. "Were going home"

"Thanks" Brent smiles

"And Kayla" Mariah whispers in my ear softly "kiss him while you're up there"

I try to figure out if she's drunk or not. Probably.

"Will do, get some rest" I laugh and Cameron helps her up and walks out.

"Ferris wheel?" Brent asks

"That was my favorite ride to go on as a kid with my mom" I smile at all the memories. He takes my hand and we walk over to the ride.

"You know" Brent says as the wheel starts to move. "Me and my dad went on this too"

We stopped at the top and I smile at the beauty of the sun setting on the mountains.

"Beautiful isn't it" I whisper to Brent.

"Not as beautiful as you" he whispers and turns my head to kiss me. You'll never believe what happened next. Fireworks. Literal fireworks. They are lighting off fireworks. It sounds unbelievable because that only happens on movies right? Well it's happening to me right now. I am the sappy romantic movie everyone wants. We part lips and I smile and blush, looking down to cover my face.
