The Guy I've Always Loved (Anime Story)

Chapter 20: Amusement Park Pt. 2

- Takami's POV -

In the Amusement Park

I took a map of the park. "So what do you guys wanna do?"

"Why don't we go to the haunted house?" Haru pointed at it excitedly.

I started to shiver. "Why is there always a haunted house in an amusement park...?"

"You scared?" Aki asked.

"Of course, I can't deal with scary things or I get nightmares."

"Don't worry, I'll be by your side." Aki held out his hand for me to hold.

I was able to hold it until Junto held out his hand as well. "I'm here for you too." He looked the other way.

"Thanks." I smiled, left them hanging. "Let's go...?"

In the Haunted House

"I regret this!" Tears ran down my face and I ran backward.

Aki took my hand. "There's nothing to worried about." He smiled.

I looked down at my hand touching his and blushed. His hands are so soft...

"Boo!"

I immediately jumped and landed in Aki's arms. "What was that?" I looked around frightened.

"Hehe." Sachie grinned, "That was me."

I sighed in relief. "That's not funny, Sachie." I pouted.

"It's pretty funny, how you jumped into Aki's arms though." Haru laughed.

My eyes widened and realized that that actually happened. I'm in Aki's arms and he isn't even phased by this. I looked up at him as he looked down at me. "Um... sorry."

Aki giggled. "It's fine." Aki put me down and I held onto his hand tightly.

"Sorry if my hands are sweaty," Aki and I continued to through the house.

"It's fine, I don't mind it."

My heart was relieved.

Outside of the Haunted House

"Finally! Freedoommm!!" I yelled happily, as my arms were positioned as though I was in Titanic.

"The haunted house wasn't even that scary." Haru took out the map of the park and looked for other attractions.

"But it was funny how Takami jumped into my arms." Aki giggled.

"No, it's not!" I started to hit him lightly.

Sachie looked back and saw Junto walk out of the haunted house. "You okay?" She asked him.

Junto frowned, "Um.. yeah... I just feel out of place, that's all." He looked at me and Aki.

"Then what do you want to do?" I walked over to him.

Junto looked to the side. "I really want to ride the Ferris Wheel."

"Sure, why not? The Ferris Wheel is close anyway." Haru continued to look at the map.

At the Ferris Wheel

"Great, more waiting..." Sachie rolled her eyes.

"At least, we're having fun waiting in line." I smiled. "It's too bad Haru is afraid of heights." I looked back at Haru sitting on a bench.

Then, we heard people whistling behind us. "Are you two girls alone?" Two guys stood close to us.

"Um..." I hesitated.

"They're with us." Junto and Aki gave them the death stare.

"Pfft." They rolled their eyes and looked the other way.

"Why are boys always like this...?" Sachie questioned.

Aki coughed. "What are we? Potatoes?"

"Handsome potatoes?" I smiled.

Sachie giggled. "Seems about right."

"Four people is the maximum for one cart." The person said.

"Why don't we have 2 people go on one and 2 go on another?" Aki suggested.

"We can't go on together?" Sachie asked.

Aki winked. "Nope."

"Oooh, Junto, come on, let's go on this one." Sachie dragged him into the cart.

"Next two?" The person smiled.

We walked into the cart and sat down next to each other as the Ferris Wheel started to move.

I looked out the cart, not knowing what to talk to Aki about. "So..." I looked over at Aki and he was staring at his phone. "Is everything okay? You've been looking at your phone sadly lately."

He closed his eyes and put his phone away. "It's nothing."

I looked at the floor. "You know that you can talk to me when something is bothering you. I want to always be a part of your life."

His eyes widened. "What did you say?"

I blinked twice and thought about what I said. My eyes widened as well and I started to blush. "That's not a confession or anything!" I looked to the side. "I just don't want you to carry a burden alone."

"Thanks, but I don't want to get you caught up in my situations." He smiled.

I put my head on his shoulder. "I know this is out of nowhere but I have this bad feeling that you're gonna leave again. Please don't leave me." Tears started to fall down my face as I closed my eyes.

- Akihiro's POV -

I looked at Takami on my shoulders sleeping and sighed. "Seriously, who falls asleep on a Ferris Wheel?" I continued to look at her. "I'm sorry, I don't think I'm able to keep that promise."

"Did I do something wrong...?" Takami said, sleeptalking.

"No, you didn't do anything wrong, but I did." I held onto Takami's hand. "My mistake was falling in love with you again."
