"Hey Felix, are you coming?" Gil asked me as I sat on the bench. everyone, AL, Mattie, Toris, Gil, Arthur, Lizzie, Feli and Lovi, stopped and looked back at me. We were at Kennywood (I do not own) for a school field trip and everyone wanted to go on the Pit drop. I stayed on the bench though, not that I didn't want to go and have fun with them, but I was kinda sorta maybe afraid of heights. I didn't want to tell anyone though, because they might laugh at me.
"Um, no you guys go on ahead, I'll wait here for you ok." I smiled and made a shooing motion. Gil shrugged and he and most of the others headed off to get in line. Trois, Mattie and Feli stayed behind though. "Guys, I'm fine. Go have and like, ride the ride." I really hoped they would, because They're gonna ask me why I won't go otherwise.
"We want you to come to, though." Mattie said.
"Yeah, It wouldn't be any fun without you." Toris said.
"Ve~ why won't you come?" Feli asked. I mentally facepalmed, well I guess I have to tell them now. I prayed they wouldn't laugh at me.
"that is an exallent question, lets go get some cotten candy." I went to get up but the way they looked at me made me stop.
"Why won't you tell us?" Toris said.
"We won't laugh if thats what your worried about." mattie said. I scratched my head, feeling my blonde hair through my fingers.
"I"mafraidofheights." I said quickly. I looked down, waiting for them to laugh, but they didn't.
"What did you say?" Feli asked, ok so I guess I said it to fast.
"I'm afraid of heights." I said. Toris chuckled, and I looked up. "Hey you said you wouldn't laugh." I pouted.
"I'm not laughing at you, I'm not that mean, but if you were afrai of heights why didn't you just say so."
"Because, like you guys said, I thought you'd laugh." I looked up at them.
"Its ok if you are afraid of heights. but you should still try to face your fear." Mattie said and the other two nodded in agreement. I stood up.
"alright, if you say I can do it, then I'll totally do it." And we all walked to get in line.
"Is it too late to get off?" I asked whoever would listen. We'd got on the ride and had started going up. I didn't think I could do it anymore when we just kept going higher. I felt someone grab my hand, and looking pastthe saftey bar, I saw it was Toris. I smiled bit.
"Don't worry, You can do it, I'll be here and so will Mattie and Feli, Ok?" I nodded, and held his hand a little tighter as we reached the top.
Others on the ride started counting. Five. I looked out into the park in front of me, seeing everything and the ground below. Four. I held Toris' hand tighter, not planning on letting go until we touched the ground again. Three. I closed me eyes. Two. I took a deep breath, I can do this. One. Nevermind i can't do this, too late we started dropping. I screamed as loud as I could, not daring to open my eyes or let go of the hand I was holding onto. The drop ony lasted for a second, but it felt like forever until Toris was telling me it was over.
"Felix, its over, you can let go now." He said as I opened my eyes and let go of his hand. I looked at it to see that it was a bit pruple-ish. We stepped off the ride adn went to meet up eith the rest of our group.
"Sorry about your hand." I said as we all decided where to go next. He shrugged.
"Its ok, at least you faced your fear and went on the ride." He grinned at me. I smiled back, yeah, faced my fear sure. Let records show that I am never going on that ride aain.
We decided to go on the swingshot next, now that I could do. See, I'm only scared of heights when its a drop-falling issue. Roller coasters and swings are fine by me.
"Are you going on this one?" Toris asked. I nodded, explaining to him that I was fine with rides like this. So we all rode the swingshot without a hitch, then decided to go get lunch. I got a hotdog and french fries with a lemonade, Toris got a hburger with cheesefries and a sprite, Mattie got a hotdog too, with fries and a cherry shlushie, and Feli got a pizza and a Mountain Dew. Everyone else was sitting at the other side of the table. We talked about random things as we ate and made plans which ride we'd go on next.
The rest of the day went like any other day at an amusment park would go. when it started getting dark, we all bought lightsabors and went on the merry-go-round, waving them around on our horses and singing that epic song you think of when you see horse races (I don't know what its called but hopefully you know the one I'm talking about)
we decided to play a few games before we hadto leave. I won a big stuffed bear from one of the games so I decided to go watch Toris, who was having trouble with his game. It was the typical 'knock the bottles over and win a prize' game and he was failing miserably. i took his last throwing ball, he looked at me but i shrugged him off and threw it. It hit the bottem right one and knocked them all over. The guy let me pick any prize and I picked a stuffed tiger. I gave it to Toris and he gaped at me.
"Your welcome." I said as we headed back to the bus. Matttie was carrying a polar bear with him.
"Thanks." Toris said beside me and we got on the bus. Everyone was chattering about how much fun they had today. Me and Toris headed to the back where our assigned seats were.
The bus ride was gonna be a long one so I got comfy and leaned back against the seat. We talked for a bit, but then Toris fell asleep, his head falling on my shoulder. I was about to wake him up to move it, but decided against it, we were best friends so it was ok. Besides, he looked kind of...cute sleeping like like that. I laid my head on top of his and fell into my own sleep.
The two sleeping children wree unaware of Lizzie sitting in front of them with her disposable camera, bought for her by her mom, taking pictures of them like that. Not because she wanted to get back at them for something, no they were just so adorable like that.
End
Yup so theres another chapter. I wanna say in this chapter they are like 11 or 12, not in middle school yet.
I think thats all I have to say about the chapter itself.
Oh yeah, that thing with the merry-go-round and the lightsabors actually happened. Me and my friend were at Kennywood and we were waiting in line for the marry-go-round, and we saw this group of guys with lightsabors riding on the merry-go-round singing that song. They are forever my idols.
Anyway, if you have questions, suggestions or comments, review or Pm me. I want to know what you think. Also, I'm still looking for ideas on the 'liet thing. Sorry if this was short its like 2 in the morning.
