T"I think I liked the movie. It wasn't that bad" Jake tells me.
"Next time, I will watch yours" I tell him.
He grins.
"Which kind of movies do you like the most?" I ask him curious to know.
"Horror" he says. "What about you?"
"I like horror too and romantic ones" I reply.
"Every girl loves romantic movies" he scoffs

"So what?" I reply.
"You girls always want to hear 'And They Lived Happily Ever After" he replies and I punch him playfully.
"Its not that way all the time" I protest.
"It is" he retaliates.
"No! Its not!" I reply.

"Okay! If you say so! But you're not changing my mind" Jake spits and I groan.
"Believe whatever you want" I say and he ignores my jab.

"So are you driving? Am still drunk" Jake says and I roll my eyes. He laughs.
"You are a good driver Nikki!" He taunts.
"I'm not driving! You're okay now" I say to him.
"Oh no! I'm still drunk! Besides I really loved the ride" he says and hangs the car keys in my face using his fingers.
I growl at him and snatch it. But I really liked the idea of driving his car.
"Make sure you don't run over any old ladies at the zebra crossing" he says and I can't help but laugh. I punch him on the arm and he laughs.

"Let's go then! We are running late" he jeers and I walk out of the front door. We took the elevator together and we arrive at the parking lot. Its littered with cars.

I sat at the driver's seat and Jake sat beside me at the passenger seat. I moved the car out of the parking lot into the road. Then I drove on.
"Do you know the way to the amusement park?" Jake asks me.
"Of course! I've lived here all my life"I scoff.
" okay"he says.

I press on the accelerator. The car moves steadily on the road. Its a long time I actually drove a car! The last time I did, I ended up smashing my dads Mercedes against a tree. Since then I haven't driven a car. That was like a few months ago.
But today am here driving Jake's car.

"So you can drive? Why don't you have a car?" Jake questions.
"Because I'm not really a good driver" I reply.
"But its not bad as it seems!" He says with a small smile.
"I'm trying  my best not to smash your car"I reply
He looks on the road with a grin.

" Watch out for that pole!"Jake yells and I take my gaze off him and press on the brakes. My breath caught in my throat.
The car stops and the pole just stands in front of us.

"What were you doing? We could have had an accident!!!" Jake yells.
"I don't know! I was just driving" I yell back confused.
He sighs.
"Just be careful next time okay?" He says calmly.
I nod and drive away from the pole into the road.

I was glad we finally reached the amusement park. I parked the car and Jake and I got down. We held hands.
"So what are we doing first" I ask him.
"Hmm.... Let's go to the photo booth and then we will head for the roller coaster" He says.
"Okay! We better be quick because eleven already! I need to get home by twelve" I reply.
"Okay"

We head to the photo booth and enter. We take loads of crazy pictures together.
"I'm keeping these pictures" Jake tells me the moment we came out of the photo booth.
"They are so nice! We looked so cute together" I compliment.
"I'll take a few copies" I say.
"Sure"he says and hands me three copies. He takes five copies. I glare at him.

He smiles and I roll my eyes.
We go to the roller coaster area. The line is so long!
" I think we should hang around a bit. Maybe when we comeback, the line will be short"Jake suggests.
"You think?" I ask him.
He shrugs making him look like a puppy. I can't help but giggle. He was so cute.
"Okay let's wait for a while" I say to him.

"Let's go get ourselves some refreshments" He offers and I nod in agreement. We walked to a cotton candy seller.
"Please I want to mega cotton candies" Jake says politely to the man.
He nods and makes two. One was pink and the other blue.
He gave the pink one to Jake and the blue one to me. I was about to pay but Jake paid for it and I got angry with him for doing that but he just shrugged.
