Marco
I feel my face turn bright red as her fingers intertwine with mine. She takes her small bag in her hand and walks out the door looking back at me with each step she takes.
God I wish I could just kiss her here and now. I wish I could pull her in and keep her here with me. Unfortunately I can't. Besides would she really want to kiss me?
I doubt it
Yet I can't help but imagine what it would be li- suddenly Star falls backwards on one of the steps and nearly falls head first onto the ground if it wasn't for her holding my hand. The edge of her foot stays fastened on the step, while I hold her up so she could keep her balance. Her face is so close to mine. Almost...
Star
Too close! His face is directly in front of mine. I look up at him. I could feel his hand shaking in mine. Or is that my hand? I don't know at this point! I do know this is extremely awkward. I look away from his face for a moment, sending him a message to let me go, not do make a move even though I secretly want him too. And he does...let go. He lets me go just enough to let me get my balance and get back on the ground.
When I look back up at him, the pain I see in his dark eyes is unbearable. What have I done?! I knew myself I wanted him to...to...I don't know what I wanted him to do. I wanted him to let go, but I wanted him to do something...but what? Kiss me? No. Well... No. He would never want to kiss me. Not now...
"We should get going." He says. This time the happy demeanor he had a second ago is gone. Had he wanted to kiss me? No. Not Marco. He didn't like me. Not after that party...
"Ok then..."
~40 minutes later~
By the time we reach the gate I'm exhausted. It took us so long. I should've trusted Marco when he suggested to use the bus.
Marco hands a man our tickets and we stroll inside. Everywhere I see bright colored lights and beautiful attractions. "It's amazing."I say in awe. "I thought you'd like it." He says. Still I see no smile.

Star dances around in her dress, twirling and spinning about. She looks so beautiful. Why had she looked away? No I knew why. She thought of me as only a friend. Nothing more. What more would there be to it? For now I should ignore it and focus on having a good time. But how could could I possibly have a good time when every time I speak to her I remind myself that she doesn't like me at all.
She's breathtaking and outgoing and from a another dimension! How could I have chance with her. The answer is clear... I don't. When she comes back she's squealing with happiness. I gesture to all the rides. "Which one should we go on first?" I ask. She looks around then points to a tall structure with a round blue top. When the top falls, I could feel my stomach wrench. "Are you s-sure about that S-Star?" Star turns to me and laughs
"What's wrong Mr. Safe Guy? Can't handle a little danger for once?" She mocks
I turn back. "Of course I can!" I reply and stomp off towards the ride. What am I thinking...
