Recap:
We walked around the park for a few and then I pulled him towards the roller coasters. We got on a bunch of roller coasters, and then we decided to play some games. We played the game where you shoot water into the clown's mouth. Of course Sterling won. He got me a really big blue monkey.
We were having fun just walking around eating cotton candy. Then I noticed where we headed and excitement bubbled up inside of me.
“Come on Sterling,” I shouted, bouncing up and down, “let's go on the Wonder Wheel!”
_____________________________________________________________________________
I pulled Sterling with me as I ran towards the Wonder Wheel and my eyes lit up with excitement. Coney Island's most famous ride is the Wonder Wheel, apart from the Cyclone. It was like a Ferris wheel, just only a little bigger. It was also super romantic because the little booths only fit two people, and the ride was slow.
We finally reached the guy controlling the ride and handed him our tickets. He stamped our paper and guided us to a little booth. I went in first and then Sterling came in after me. Soon, the ride started to move and we got to see Coney Island from a bird's eye view. When we reached the top, I was speechless. The view was incredible. The lights stood out against the dark sky. The kids running and the laughter they shared was bought to our ears. We saw the game booths and all of the rides and I realized how great of date this was.
“Wow, this is beautiful” Sterling commented, absentmindedly.
“Emm.” Was all that I could force out.
“Riley?” Hearing Sterling’s voice, I turned my head to face him, “Riley, you make me very happy. Whenever I see you, you brighten up my day. When you smile, I smile. Thank you.” Sterling is the only guy I dated that just randomly told me how he feels. I like that.
“Sterling, you are the reason I smile. When I'm with you happiness burst inside me. Oh god, that sounds so cliché. I so hate cliché.”
“So you hate cliché, but you love sarcasm, hmm. That's funny.”
“Shut up,” and then I playfully punched his arm.
“Hey! Violence is not the answer.” I laughed at his childishness
“But it makes sense.” I stated confidently.
“Where's my receipt. I wanna send you back.”
“Oh really?” And then I pulled his face and kissed him.
This was the first time I dominated the kiss. Usually I let Sterling takeover, but right now I wanted to feel in control. I playfully bit his bottom lip and he opened for me. Instinctively, I explored his mouth.
“Forget it. Your mine to keep” Sterling stated once we finally separated.
“I had a feeling you would change you mind.”
“Ride's over people!” The man controlling the ride shouted. I then noticed that we were just sitting there while the ride wasn't moving.
I jumped up from my seat and exited our booth. Shortly after, Sterling followed suit.
“Thank you mister, that was fun.” I said to the guy controlling the ride. He just grunted in response.
“I think we should head out, it's getting kind of late.”
“Oh my gosh, what time is it?” After finally realizing that I had a curfew, I looked at my watch. 10:47. There's no way that I'm gunna get home at 11:00.
“Sterling, we have to go! I have to be home at eleven.”
“Why don't you just tell your parents that the banquet ran later than you thought it would?” Oh god, I knew this would backfire.
“Uh, they won't believe that.”
“Damn. Then I guess were gunna have to break a few laws tonight.”
We hopped in the car and Sterling immediately turn on the ignition. When we got on the highway I checked the speedometer and saw that we were doing 70. The speed limit was 55. Whatever, 15 over the speed limit is nothing, as long as you don't get caught.
We got to my house in record time, but I was still home 15 minutes after curfew, this wasn't going to fly well.
“Thank you for tonight Sterling” I said before getting out of the car. He pulled me back and planted a kiss on my lips, then he let me out.
“Goodnight Riley”
I slammed the door behind me and walked to my front door. Before I put the key in, I blew Sterling a kiss. I opened to the door to find the house completely quiet. I switched on the light and was barely able to control the yelp that escaped my lips.
Sitting on the couch was my dad.
“You know that's creepy right?” I said, once I gained my composure.
“You know it's after eleven right?” He asked, mimicking my tone.
“I know daddy, I'm so sorry. But, Sterling took me took that restaurant that you and mommy went to for your anniversary that one time, and then he bought me some clothes and we went to Coney Island, then we went on the Ferris Wheel and I lost track of time and before I knew it, it was a quarter to eleven so we tried to rush home, but you know how far Coney Island is from here, so it's basically impossible for us to get here from Coney Island in 15 minutes, but we tried daddy, we tried. I'm so sorry.” I said, all in one breath.
“I just want to let you know, that I have no clue what you just said, but I'm tired, so I'm gunna let you off the hook. But, no more of this.” And this is why I love my dad.
Immediately, I rushed to him and gave him a huge hug.
“Oh gosh, get off of me!” He said with a laugh in his voice.
After I let him go, I ran upstairs to my room, but not before screaming, “NIGHT!”
I quickly undressed, and threw on some pajamas and climbed into bed. The last thought I had before falling into blissful sleep was:
I think I'm falling in love with Sterling.
