We walked through the second entrance to the park after we got the neon green bracelets on our wrists. Our wrist bands allow us free rides and half the cost of food and drinks.

"Probably not a great time to say that I might or might not have a thing for heights." I said causing both boys to look down on me with looks.

"Just saying but, you would too if when you were younger, the ride broke and you were up in the air." I said, recalling a memory that got me and my mom freaked out about heights.

"We will be with you and this is a different amusement park. I do remember the one that you are talking about." Mason said, Callum nodding in agreement.

Ever since we talked this morning, he's been extremely quiet. He seems to only zone off and stuff. Mason was rambling on and on about London, but all's I could do was glance up at Callum. What could be bothering him? Why is he being so quite?

"Octavia?" Mason questioned and I hummed, something I did when I was there, but not completely there. "Have you ever had a boyfriend?" He asked seriously. "No." I replied honestly. I haven't, because all the boys that I had met were all cocky, arrogant and they were just fuckboys. I mean...I know that Callum is a fuckboy, but it's different because he's an ex-fuckboy.

"Never?!" Mason asked flabbergasted. I looked at him and shook my head slowly in confusion on why it's such a big deal to him whether I've had a boyfriend or not.

"Mason, just drop it." Callum snapped and I flinched because I hate that tone. Especially when it comes from him. I moved away from him and closer to Mason because I felt like my cautious side was on high alert.

It was Callum's turn to glance down at me in confusion. "Oh, we should go do that roller coaster." Mason said while pointing to the scariest roller coaster in the park. I squirmed in the place I stood grounded too. Is it bad that I'm suddenly feeling very knackered?

"Maybe we should start out with something less intimidating for her." Callum suggested, taking in my discomfort. Mason nodded as his wide blue eyes started to take in the park around us. He was ahead of us by a good ten feet as he looked for the "perfect" starter ride. Callum and I walked beside each other in a silence that was awkward.

Maybe the words exchanged earlier this morning was a mistake. Maybe Callum had changed his point of view on me. Maybe he thought I was just some inexperienced, broken little girl. Maybe he thought I wasn't going to get anywhere in life.

"You've been quiet." He noted in a calm, smooth voice. "You've been quiet." I said, exasperating the you've.
