BXBX NOVEL Chapter 95: His Idea of Fun
When he mentioned that he knew a place that would cheer us up, I wasn’t sure what he had in mind and what to expect. However, I surely never expected him to take me to a place like this…
I stood next to Hayden with my mouth hanging wide open as I stared at our destination which was now right in front of my face. Honestly, I don’t remember the last time I came to a place like this, and I have never dreamt in my wildest dreams that I would come to a place like this with someone like Hayden. I glanced over at Hayden’s outstandingly excited face before looking back at our destination.
Like…seriously?!
’Welcome to Wonder Dream Land’
This place is the biggest amusement part in the country. He can’t be serious…
"Are you just going to stand there? Let’s go…" Hayden said as he tugged on my hand.
"Ok…" I mumbled, still in shock.
Hayden held my hand tightly as he pulled me after him into the amusement park. He laughed a little at my shocked expression but didn’t make any further comments. I looked around the large and very colorful amusement park in wonder. The place was a lot less crowded than I had expected but perhaps that was because we were here on a weekday.
There were some couples walking around as they enjoyed their sweet time together; however, it was clear that most of the people here were families with little kids.
"I don’t remember the last time I came to a place like this…" I mumbled to myself as I looked at the very large rollercoaster in the distance.
"Me neither," Hayden replied softly.
"Umm…since you decided to come here, is there something that you want to do?" I asked, feeling uncertain about how we should be spending our time.
I mean, I’m not a very big fan of scary rides or anything like that. Plus, I haven’t been to an amusement park in like forever, so I wasn’t sure what we’re supposed to do besides just walking around.
"Actually, I have no idea…" Hayden said as we continued to walk around aimlessly through the main path of the park.
I guess he brought me here randomly…
"You know…I never expected that you would bring me to a place like this…" I admitted honestly.
"Aren’t girls supposed to like these sorts of places?" Hayden asked as he turned to look pointedly at me.
"I’m not so sure about that…" I replied frankly. I wouldn’t count my opinion as the standard representation of a girl’s opinion.
"Maybe we should check the map that we got from the ticket booth…" Hayden suggested.
Hayden opened up the pamphlet of the park’s map and we both looked down at it to see what attractions they had. For a moment, it truly felt like we were a young couple on a date. It was a very unusual feeling to be here with Hayden and just spending a normal day together.
"Where do you want to go?" Hayden asked.
"I’m not really into scary rides…" I replied, my eyes still on the map.
"What about the haunted house?" Hayden suggested enthusiastically.
"I just told you that I’m not into scary rides!" I exclaimed.
"The haunted house isn’t a ride…" Hayden corrected.
"But…it’s scary…" I replied.
"Let’s go!" Hayden shouted happily, pulling me along with him.
"Hayden! Wait!" I cried out loudly, but it was already too late.
…
It was cold. It was dark…and I felt scared out of my mind from the first moment that we entered. Hayden held my hand like always, but I was desperately clinging to his arm with my other hand as well. I heard Harden chuckling close to my ear as I refused to take a step forward.
"Malissa…if you don’t open your eyes, how are we supposed to walk forward?" Hayden asked with a light laugh.
"I’ll just follow you…I’m too scared to open my eyes…" I replied, meaning every word.
Like seriously, something will pop out and scare me. Then I’m going to scream loudly like a fool. I know that and so I’m just going to keep my eyes shut. The wind was blowing and it’s so cold. The sound of the haunting wind was driving me crazy with fear. I knew that everything was fake but that didn’t make me less scared at all.
I hugged Hayden’s arm to my chest tighter as I pressed my chest against his arm.
"You’re so funny. Just open your eyes, there’s nothing here…" Hayden said, sounding completely calm.
"Can we quickly walk so we can get out of here faster?" I asked, still refusing to open my eyes.
"No…I like the feel of your boobs pressing against my arm…" Hayden said with an amused laugh.
"Hayden!" I screamed. How can he make a joke like that now of all times?
Hayden didn’t react to my sudden outburst, instead, I felt the warmth of his lips on mine. Did he just kiss me?
My eyes flew open in shock to see Hayden’s face very close to mine. I touched my lips with my fingertips, feeling the feel of his lingering kiss. He did kiss me...
"Hayden…" I whispered.
"So, kissing you will get you to open your eyes. If you close your eyes, I’ll kiss you again and again," Hayden teased. He was enjoying himself too much for my liking.
"That’s so stupid…" I muttered.
"Don’t close your eyes. Let’s go," Hayden said.
