A/N: Ooo, I had a lot of fun making this chapter. Note: Cody and Sierra aren't in this chapter like at all. But they're referenced like twice.
-Cupcakes11: It makes me scared to go on that ride too. My mom and I were the only ones in our family that didn't go on the ride. I was too scared lol. Thanks for enjoying last chapter and I hope you enjoy this one. :)
Gwen and Duncan's (and other's) Disneyland Trip:
Chapter 9: The Tower of Terror
~Izzy's P.O.V.~
I am so excited to go on the Tower of Terror! I haven't been on it in forever and it will just be so amazing that I went on it again! Plus, I'm going on it with my Noah! Well, he's not "my" Noah, but he will be. I promise you. I know exactly how to make him fall in love with me. I have the magic power. *insert smiley face here*
"Duncan! Gwen! Wait up! I need to ask you guys something very important!" I yell running up to them.
Duncan and Gwen turn around and stare at me, "What is it?" Gwen asks.
"How do you make a guy fall in love with you? Can you guys give me tips? Please?" I beg actually kneeling down.
"Well," Duncan starts, "It's kind of obvious that he likes you back."
"Yeah, did he even budge to let go of your hand? Nope, he didn't. He likes you, Izzy." Gwen says to me. Hey, where is Noah anyway? We're already in line. Did he leave us!? Oh, wait, nope. He's right behind us with his big ol' sarcastic face. I love that about him! But did he hear us? I don't think so.
I smile, "You really think so?"
Duncan and Gwen nod, "Totally."
I blush and smile brightly. That's awesome that he likes me! But that's from Duncan and Gwen's opinion. The only way I can know for sure is if I ask him he likes me. But I have to ask him at the right time and it's obviously not on this ride. Well, we finally made it to the line to the ride and waited to get on the ride. The line wasn't that long (it wasn't even long at all). We just went through it and then we found ourselves boarding the ride like the next minute. The lady guided us through this room with some random people who were sitting down on this bench. I think that's what we were supposed to do and we were! I'm so smart.
Once we sat down, I accidently forgot that Noah was behind Duncan and that means I had to sit in between Duncan and Gwen. Noah sat next to Duncan. No! Gwen seemed pretty upset too because she tapped my shoulder, "Can you and Duncan switch seats?" she asked.
I gasped, "You mean…you mean you don't…like me?" I then started fake crying. Everybody stared at us and then Duncan waved his hands in the 'there's nothing to see here' type of expression.
Duncan then patted on my shoulder, "No, no. Gwen likes you, right Gwen?"
Gwen nodded, "Yeah, you're my best friend. But I just want you to sit by Noah so that maybe you two can have a little romantic bond. Huh, is that cool?"
I sniffed a fake tear, "Really?"
"Yes, Izzy. I would never be mean to a friend." Gwen says comforting me.
"Okay, I'll trade spots." I finally said. Duncan and I then swapped seats and that meant that I sat next to Noah who didn't sit next to anybody. Gwen sat by Duncan who sat by me. Got it? Cool, "So, what's up Noah?" I casually ask him.
He doesn't answer because the ride then begins. The room goes black and this dark, mysterious, attractive voice plays on this speaker that warns us about the ride. He then tells us to say goodbye to the real world and it shows our reflection.
"Oh! There's me! Look everybody there's me!" I scream out right before the room goes dark again and I can't see myself anymore. I'm sad.
"You've just entered The Twilight Zone." The speaker says.
"Yes, I know. Let's get on with this already." I say. We then enter this room with scary-looking ghosts! But everybody knows they're fake. Well, everybody except for Noah because he just grips onto his chair even more. After that, the speaker finally turns off and we lift up from out of the room and we keep going up and up and up until this door opens and we see all of Disney California Adventure. I swear, I think I saw my grandmother down there.
I could hear a voice say something like "What happens now?" I'm pretty sure it was Noah's.
I just yell out, "This." And then we plunge back down to the ground! Well, not all the way to the ground, but pretty close. Noah also doesn't notice, but he grabbed my hand instead of the bars! Sierra moment: Eeeeeee!
"That wasn't so bad." Noah says relieved.
I laugh because then we go all the way back up and then all the way back down and this time, it seemed faster. We get back to the room from earlier and that stupid speaker comes back on and tells us that they're glad we visited. Yeah, yeah, cool. We get it! We finally get off the ride and then I find out that they took pictures of us! What!? I wasn't even ready!
"Hey, look. There's us." Duncan points to a picture of us four on the ride and it's priceless. Duncan has his hands up, Gwen is smiling with her mouth open, I'm pointing at something, and Noah looks so terrified and you can see us holding hands; it's clearly visible. I smile and I look over at Noah who's starting to blush again. Haha, oh Noah…
"Guys, can we get a copy of this picture?" I ask Duncan and Gwen.
"Uh, I don't think we should." Noah says.
"Don't be such a wimp. I think we should. This looks pretty damn good." Duncan says as he and Gwen go up to desk to ask for a picture. I'm now stuck with Noah looking around in the gift shop. Yay! I saw a bunch of Nightmare Before Christmas stuff and I love that movie! But all the merchandise are too expensive. For example, there is this really awesome looking backpack and it's forty dollars! I only have thirty dollars. With a little flirtation, I could win over a few extra bucks. It's also not using somebody, I swear. Then I spot something very wonderful; a Jack Skellington stuffed toy! I NEED this now! Crap, it's forty dollars too. Wait, nope, flirtation. Yep.
"Hey, um, Noah?" I say innocently to Noah.
Noah looks at me, "Yeah…Izzy?"
"Look at this awesome Jack Skellington stuffed toy! Isn't it cute?" I say casually.
"Sure." Noah just says.
"Yeah, oh no! It's forty dollars! I only have thirty dollars..." I pause to make sure Noah's catching on. But all he does is smile and nods his head.
"And I was thinking if you could possibly..." I'm about to say right before Noah cuts me off.
"I can buy it for you Izzy." He says smiling for once.
"Oh, really?" I say with a fake-surprise expression.
"Sure." And at that moment, Noah grabs the stuffed toy and we both head over to the cashier. Duncan and Gwen just finished paying for the picture and we also just finished paying for the stuffed Jack toy. Once we exit the gift shop and find Cody and Sierra sitting on the bench, Noah hands me my Jack toy, "Here you go."
"Thank you." Is all I say once the wind crashes through our hair and we both stare into each other's eyes. Noah smiles and then we both take off to go to our next ride.
A/N: Well that was a pretty chapter. Next chapter is going to be Sierra's P.O.V. so make sure to stay tunned for that to catch all the crazyness! Which ride will our friends ride next? Will Noah and Izzy become a couple? What happened with Cody and Sierra while the other's were on the ride? And did Duncan secretly collect more weed for Gwen? You will get most of these answers next chapter hopefully. Thanks for reading and review! :D
