The two boys laughed with each other as they cut through alleys and yards as to not be seen
"Where are we even going?" Lloyd giggled as Morro pulled him by the hand
"Espere! It's a surprise." Morro smiled, leading Lloyd through the darkness
After a while of conversation, Morro pulled Lloyd in front of him and covered the blonde's eyes with a small, black bandana
"Woah, you planning to kill me or something?" Lloyd asked
"Yep, your gift is the sweet embrace of death." Morro monotoned.
The ghost didn't expect Lloyd to laugh like he did, he thought the joke was badly delivered and a bit corny, but when Lloyd threw his head back and laughed that loud, melodious laugh of his, Morro sighed a quiet sigh of relief
They walked for a bit longer before Morro stopped Lloyd and let go of him to start shuffling around on the ground
"What're you doing?" Lloyd smiled
The blonde didn't want to keep smiling like an idiot, but he couldn't help it. He was happy right now and totally excited to see what Morro was up to
"Alright." Morro said, dusting himself off from the ground a bit. "Now before you say anything about the rules, please remember that your sweet, and considerate lover, quien no es otro que yo, prepared this for you with love."
"Haha, cute." Lloyd said with sarcasm
"You ready?" Morro asked, lightly holding the knot that held the blindfold together
"Of course..." Lloyd smiled
The ghost pulled at the knot and the blindfold fell to the ground
"Is this...Mega Monster Amusement Park?" Lloyd asked in disbelief
There were lights everywhere. The park was closed down and empty, but it was entirely lit up, colors rained down on the two boys as Lloyd looked up at the attraction
"Oh my God, you really-" Lloyd laughed, stopping when he saw the small flower in Morro's hand
"What? I didn't have time for anything fancy." Morro mumbled, shoving the hand that held the bandana into his pocket while still holding out the flower to Lloyd
It was a singular, yellow dandelion, the petals were a bit wilted and the stem was a little short, but Lloyd loved it. It was charming and sweet, he adored it
"Oh..." Lloyd said softly, slowly taking the flower from Morro's hand
The blonde laughed before continuing, "You know, this is actually the place where Jay unlocked his true potential."
"Funny enough, I've never actually been to an amusement park." Morro said, looking up at all the lights
"Really?" Lloyd asked, turning to face the other boy
"Yeah, I never had the-" Morro chuckled before stopping himself, "time..."
"Because of training and stuff, right?" Lloyd asked
"Yeah."
Lloyd looked up to watch the boy that stood to his right quietly, before softly swaying his body to the side to bump into him
Morro looked down at the blonde with confusion as the blonde smiled up at him
"Do you want to change that?"
Instant butterflies.
Morro could've vomited with how sweet Lloyd was. This was supposed to be him spoiling Lloyd, but now the the blonde was making him feel giddy and shit. But hey, he never said he didn't like it. The ghost bit his lip with a grin before bending down and snatching Lloyd up off the ground in a bridal carry
"Ah, Morro!" Lloyd giggled
"Déjame ser alguien que nunca olvidarás. Quédate conmigo, y te mostraré cosas increíbles." Morro spoke proudly, staring down at Lloyd with those air-y green pupils that he loved so much
"I don't know what you just said but I agree." Lloyd smiled awkwardly
The two teens laughed together before running off into the amusement park.
Lloyd couldn't even lie if he wanted to, he had so much fun with Morro that night. The two laughed and played with each other all night, it was amazing. Now, they sat on the ferris wheel that slowly spun with it's bright lights and lovely atmosphere. Lloyd smiled at the night sky before looking down at the medium sized, green and yellow frog plush that sat in his lap. The blonde chuckled as he remembered how Morro cheated at a target shooting game to get it for him.
The blonde turned to his left to watch the phantom quietly. Morro's hair whisped in the soft breeze of the cool sky as the moonlight shone through his translucent body, the boy focused his attention to the left and zoned out while watching the shimmering stars around him. Lloyd took his attention up to the stars as he leaned his head back in silence.
"This is nice..." The blonde said softly
"Yeah, I would've hoped so." Morro answered, turning to face Lloyd
"Mm, it's a little cold though." Lloyd laughed
"Yeah?" Morro asked, sitting up in the seat
"Yeah, but I should've guess that considering-...what are you doing?" Lloyd asked, cutting himself off from his previous sentence
The ghost began to unzip his hoodie and shake it off for Lloyd
"Hey, you don't have to-"
"But you're cold." Morro said, wrapping his blue hoodie around Lloyd's shoulders
Lloyd pushed his arms through the sleeves before pulling them up over his hands
"...Thanks, Morro." Lloyd softly smiled
"Don't worry about it." Morro smirked before wrapping his arm around Lloyd's shoulders
The blonde swallowed up his nervousness and leaned into Morro's chest
"...Do you think we're gonna get in trouble one day...?" Lloyd mumbled
"Yeah, probably." Morro shrugged
Lloyd cocked his neck to look up at the ghost, "Seriously?" He asked with slight disbelief about Morro's bluntness
"What? It's true. The ninja know who I am and have every to be angry with me." He replied, stroking Lloyd's hair. "That doesn't mean I'm gonna stop seeing you, it just means that I'm aware of the affects of it."
Lloyd stared up at the boy, silently agreeing with his words. They let the silence envelope them for a while before Morro looked down at the blonde and spoke up again
"You ready to go home?"
"Yeah. Can we take the wind tunnel thing?" Lloyd asked, looking up
"You really want to?" Morro asked with a smirk
Lloyd looked away and thought to himself for a while, the blonde bit his lip with a small smirk before turning his eyes back to Morro
"Actually, I think I have a better idea..."
The two boys howled with laughter as Lloyd's dragon twisted and turned through the night sky. Their energetic screams were heard far and wide as the lovers flew threw the sky
It was nothing like another night in Ninjago.
