Fake it till you make it - Lucathy

45 - Dance

"Lucas, can you throw darts?" Athanasia asked me as she kept dragging me around the carnival.

"Don't know. Never tried." I replied.

"Let's try then!" She said pointing to a game stand.

"Would the young lady like to try her hand at throwing darts? Only 9 dollers for 3 throws!" The men said.

"Actually my friend would like to try!" She said pushing me infront of her.

'Did she just call me her friend?' I felt both glad and slightly down.

I was glad that she thought of me as a friend to.

But I wasn't quite sure why I was down.

I paid the nine dollars and picked up a dart.

There were 5 targets.

The one all the way at the back was the hardest.

He looked around at the prizes.

A pencil on the easiest.

A book on the second easiest.

A puzzle toy on the middle one.

A mini plushie on the second hardest.

A huge teddy on the hardest one.

'Lets try for the book....' I thought aiming the dart.

It felt weird...

It was light.

I really didn't know how to aim this thing...

I may have also abandoned Kiran for this so....

This is to make It up to him...

First dart.

"Too bad! Try again!" The men said as I hit nothing.

'Okay.... I think I roughly know how to aim...' I thought as I picked up the second dart.

"Ops!" I said as I hit the 4th target.

It was a mini plushie of a dog.

It looked extremely fluffy and also had black fur with blue eyes.

"Congrats! You have one more try." The men said as he passed me the last dart.

'Damn it!' I thought as the dart ended up on the floor.

"Thank you for playing!" The men said.

"Lucas, you wanted the book right?" Athanasia asked me.

I nodded.

"Kiran likes books. I kinda ditched him for this date so... He might be a little bit mad at me..."

"I did the same for my sister." Athanasia said.

She never really talked about her sister.

"Lucas. Why not you give me the mini plushie if I can get the book for Kiran?" Athanasia suggested.

"I didn't take you for the type to like these kinda things..." I replied honestly.

"But then again it makes sense... It's small and cute just like you." That line just popped into my head I just had to say it!

She blushed before maintaining her composure.

'So cute indeed...'

"First of all, I am taller then most girls so I'm not considered small. Second, I wanted the mini plushie for my sister not me. Thrid of all, I never said I don't like plushies." Athanasia said.
