Milla

I sit on the carnival bench with my knees tucked into my chest and my face in my knees. I've been crying because of the thing I did. I should of gone and not been a scary cat about the whole thing. He wanted to do it with me and I ruined it by not wanting to go.

"Hey are you ok?" I jump startled by his voice. I look up at him and wipe my tears, sob trying to conceal my cries.

"Y-yeah." My voice cracked.

"No you're not. What's wrong?" he says sitting down. I just notice he has cotten candy in his hands. He must have seen me looking at it because he offered it to me. I took it and said a small 'thank you'. I take a piece and eat it.

"Milla what's the matter? Why were you crying?" He says lifting my chin up. I look into his hazel eyes and all of the sudden there's tears falling down my cheeks and it's coming like Niagara Falls.

He pulls me into his chest wrapping his arms around my shoulders saying soothing stuff like 'sh it's ok'. My hands are pressed against his chest and his shirt is stained from my tears.

I say through my tears and sobs " I-I'm such a c-cry baby. All you wanted to d-do was go on the rollercoaster and I-I r-ruined our date."

He lifts my chin up as he says "Hey it's okay. You didn't want to and that's ok. I could see how frightened you were so I didn't want to push you."

"I-I know but I sh-should have gotten over my fear of it and went on it. You were so happy and-" He puts his hand over my mouth to make me stop talking.

"It's ok to have fears. I have a fear of snakes and that's ok. Don't beat yourself down just because you have a fear. That's normal. I was only happy because you were here with me and that's all that matters. You didn't ruin anything."

I stare stunned but also in awe. He removes his hand slowly making sure I won't rant again.

"I also have another fear." He seemed nervous. He cleared his throat and scratched the back of his neck before saying "I'm afraid that if I kiss you your not going to like it."

I look up at him surprised by his confession. I liked him since forever so I don't know what's he's afraid of.

He starts to ramble "I've liked you for a long time and I just didn't know if you liked me. I got excited when you said yes to this date but I thought it was out of pity-" I stop his ramble. I lean forward and smash my lips to his. He's went into shock for a little bit but then slowly started to move his lips in sync. He put his arms on my waist and I put my arms around his neck. Our lips fit perfectly together. I feel his tongue at the entrance of my mouth. I slightly open them for my tongue and his tongue to touch. We battle for dominance. He won. His tongue explores my mouth.

He pulls away to breathe. We're both panting. I take the opportunity to continue the conversation "I would never say yes out of pity."
