Hi GUYS! Sorry this update took so long, I've been on vacation :P Anyways, I'm gonna try to update as much as I can before school starts, which for us is August 30th, so wish me luck. But after the 30th, I can't promise that I'll update often *cries*
Enjoy!

[Mighty POV]
I finally slowed to a stop and panted, hands on my knees. "Damn you can run fast" I breathed out as I saw him approach me, calmly walking.
"I've had practice…" I laughed.
"Anyways, we're a bit off schedule so we better head off." I sat back up and stretched my back out a bit before grabbing his hand and dragging him along.
"Why can't you tell me where we're going?" he muttered in a monotone voice.
"Because if you don't know then you can't resist, but if you did know, you'd probably run home, and after that run at Starbucks, I probably couldn't keep up with you even if I tried." I said matter-of-factly.
He rolled his eyes "this is going to be fun…"
~With Vector and Espio~
"Ya see Espy didn't I tell ya!"
"Yea…you most certainty did… I really never expected that."
"They are quite cute together aren't they?"
"They are, and Nakama really seems…different, not so cold when he's around Mighty."
"Who can stay cold around Mighty, he's so jumpy and happy all the time."
"I really didn't think that they were that into each other that they would kiss in the middle of Starbucks."
"Yup, ya see, I told you that trailing them would be a good idea! Not that we had anything better to do today"
"We if you keep yelling like that, we won't be able to keep trailing them."
"Yea good point…lets go, we're falling behind." Vector whispered back as he and his partner ran out of a rather large bush and hid behind tree, binoculars in one hand, notepad in the other.
~back with Mighty and Nakama~ normal POV
"Hey Naka?"
Nakama turned to the shorter red-head "hmm?"
"Was I your first counselor?"
"…your suppose to be my counselor?"
"*sweat drop*…YES! IM SUPPOSE TO BE YOUR COUNSELOR!"
Mighty stopped walked, crossing his arms and sticking out his bottom lip. "come'on now Mighty don't be so immature…even thought I'm obviously doing such a bad job that he didn't even know I was his counselor in the first place…"
Nakama stopped and turned back at Mighty, who had stopped walking.
"Uhh…well no you aren't my first counselor…"
"…oh" well great…that doesn't make me feel better…I really wanted to be his first…COUNSELOR…his first counselor…that's totally what I meant…"
Nakama noticed the on coming blush on Mighty's face.
"But…you are my…um…favorite." Nakama finished the end of his sentence quietly, so quietly that Mighty almost didn't hear it.
"I…am? But I haven't even helped you out that much…" Nakama began to walk again and Mighty caught up to him.
"Well…you are the only one that I have ever opened up to. All that stuff I told you…I've never told anyone else before." Nakama replied looking at the ground.
"Oh. Well…I'm glad!" Nakama looked over towards Mighty as they crossed the street. "I'm glad that I was the first one you trusted with something like that."
Mighty smiled over at the taller boy.
"hmm." Nakama gave a bit of a smile, barely even noticeable unless you look closely, but Mighty saw it.
They walked side by side in silence for a while longer.
"Hey Nakama?"
"yes…?"
"Was I your first kiss?"
Nakama could feel his face burning at the red head's question. He slowly looked over at him, who currently had a quite cocky grin on his face.
"Uh…y-yes you were…"
Mighty grin widened, showing off his white slightly sharp teeth.
"Well good, I'd be upset if I wasn't." He chuckled slightly at Nakama's blushing face.
"hmm…" Nakama placed his hand over his mouth in an attempt to hide the blush.
"Good, we're here!" Mighty smiled as he grabbed Nakama's hand and pulled him towards the front gate of the very loud, very colorful park.
"TADA! THE BEST THEME PARK EVER MADE!" Mighty shouted happily, throwing his arms in the air.
"…Six Flags?" (yes I'm giving Tokyo a Six Flags…just go along with it.)
Mighty turned and smiled at him, "Well yea! This is only the best most exciting place in the whole world! I had to pull a few strings to get these all day passes, but it really didn't cost that much and it's totally worth it because I know that you probably haven't been here before, have you?"
"…no…"
"Well good then, I'm glad!" Mighty said as he pulled Nakama closer to the entry gate.
They approached the ticket booth person, a young blonde boy with hazel eyes who was leaning back in his chair currently playing his DS.
Mighty cleared his throat rather loudly, and chuckled as the boy nearly fell out of his chair. "You should pay more attention to your costumers Ray."
Ray smiled back at the red-head, "Right right, it's rather slow today, so it's torture sitting out here. Autumn is never really popular for amusement parks, even this one."
"Awesome, so the lines shouldn't be that long then, I hope you aren't scared of roller coasters Naka."
Ray looked over at the silent taller boy and smiled at him. "Oh, so you must be the Nakama that I have heard so much about, it's nice to finally meet you. Well I don't want to keep you two held up for too long, you guys go ahead and have fun." Ray handed the both a pair of tickets and pointed in the direction of the gate, "don't let me hold you both up, have fun!"
"Thanks Ray, I'll see you around later. Come on Naka." Mighty grabbed Nakama's wrist and pulled him towards the gate where the Six Flags theme song was blasting loudly.
When the two were out of sight, Ray leaned back in his chair and pulled his DS out, failing to notice the two figures in a bush disguise sneaking in the gate.
"Vector this is getting stupid, why are we still trailing Mighty and Nakama? We all ready know what's going on between them…"
"Yes but I want more juicy information, who knows what could happen in a theme park between two l.o.v.e.r.s"
"Vector…they've kissed twice…that doesn't make them lovers"
"Whatever Esp, what else do you have to do today. Plus what beats this, it's like watching real life yaoi for free!"
"…you have been spending way to much time with Vanilla."
~back with Mighty and Nakama~ Nakama POV
We stared at this huge roller costar called "Big Daddy", I swear it must have gone across the entire park. Countless loops and spins, and went so high that from where we were, we couldn't even see the top. Even better, the only security on the ride was a bar that went over your lap and held you in place. And of course with my luck, I heard Mighty say "LETS GO ON THAT ONE!"
I couldn't resist as he grabbed my hand and pulled me to the front car of the ride.
"Are you sure about this…?"
"Yea, are you scared or something?"
I blushed in embarrassment.
"Well…I've just never been on anything like this before…"
Mighty looked over at me with a smile, I really like seeing it now.
"Don't worry, it's just a ride, nothing bad ever happens on these rides."
I looked at him with a face that said I didn't believe him, he caught on.
"Well…some accidents happen, but don't worry, what's the chance that something will happen with us on it."
Is he kidding? My life is full of bad luck, which made me doubt the ride even more. But it was too late when the guy in charge of the ride came by to buckle me up, but he left pretty quickly after I sent him a pretty strong death glare.
"Don't worry, I'll be right here next to you, and if you get scared, just hold on to my arm okay."
The ride began, slowly going uphill. I could feel my stomach dropping as I looked down and saw the whole park beneath us, and this thing was still going higher!
"This is gonna be awesome huh Naka!" Mighty had the biggest smile on his face as he looked down in anticipation.
We finally hit the top and I already heard some girl from the cart behind us screaming like crazy as she clutched to her equally scared boyfriend. I didn't know whether I should have clutched on to Mighty or just shut my eyes and pretend like I wasn't there.
To late to decide, because the ride began to descend at a rate that I couldn't even recognize. My scream was caught in my throat as we went through corkscrews and loops and other things that I was too terrified to see. Then if it was even possible, the ride seemed to increase speed, I swear that it was defying all rule of gravity and physics.
Mighty laughed and clutched on to me as we approached the biggest loop that I have ever seen in my life, that…thing…was…HUGE.
It went full throttle as it made it to the of the loop, thought for some weird reason, it didn't go back down.
Please say that this is a part of the ride.
~with Vector and Espio~
"Damnit…we lost them…" Vector grumbled as he sipped out of his lemonade.
"Well I told you it was a bad idea to stop for snacks while we're stalking someone." Espio replied as he munched on his cotton candy.
"Well it's your fault for not stopping me…" Vector muttered under his breath as he pushed some hair back behind his ear.
"Well… hey, what's all that commotion over there?" Espio and Vector ran over to a crowd of people who were frantically yelling and pointing upwards.
Vector walked over to a middle aged woman.
"Excuse me Miss, but what is everyone worked up about?"
"Well my daughter and her boyfriend are on that ride and it just malfunctioned, they're stuck upside down on the top of the last loop of the ride! My poor baby!"
Vector walked away quietly as the woman began crying hysterically.
"That sure sucks…hope that Mighty and Nakama weren't on that ride, but I doubt it, right Esp."
"Uhh…."
"what?"
"Vector look up…"
"Alright, what am I looking at?"
'I'd recognize that dangling red hair anywhere! THAT'S MIGHTY!"
"Oh…sucks for them, but at least we found them."
"…shut up Vector."
~with Mighty and Nakama on Big Daddy~ nakama POV
I think my brain just shut down… I swear, I have NEVER been so terrified in my life…in fact, I don't think I've ever been terrified in my life. But thankfully, by looking on my face, nobody would ever know. I never show expression…but Mighty could tell. I glanced over at him and he looked as blank as I did, and the first thing I noticed was "hey I can actually see his face…" His face is normally partially hidden by his hair, but since we were upside down hundreds of feet in the air, his face was completely open.
He was so cute, everything from his soft tanned skin, to his smoky blue eyes, to his…wait why the hell am I thinking this when I am in a potentially life threatening situation! I should be blaming him for putting me on this death trap, not that it was his fault or anything. Though we probably couldn't hear each other from all the screams of the people behind us.
"…Mighty."
"…yup?"
"we're stuck right…" It wasn't much of a question, but I was just making sure.
"…yup? Are you scared?"
Was I scared, the normal answer would be "YES!" But even in this situation, hundreds of feet in the air, stuck upside down on a killer roller coaster, I couldn't really say yes. In fact, just being here with Mighty makes this whole thing almost funny. But I much rather be on the ground with him.
"no…you?"
"nah…this isn't the first time this has happened to me."
"but…I thought you said that things like this rarely happen…"
"I lied, in fact, this kinda happens every time I get on this ride. God only knows why they haven't shut this ride down yet. I kinda have bad luck with rides. Sorry you had to get stuck on this with me Naka-kun."
I looked over to him and he was looking back at me, though I really couldn't focus on him with all the blood rushing to my head.
"nah…it's fine, it's still fun." I laughed slightly, which shocked me, since when do I laugh? "Plus…if I had to be stuck on a roller coaster, I'm glad that I'm stuck with you." I muttered the last part, why am I being so mushy.
Mighty blushed and smiled at me, "I'm glad that I stuck here with you too Naka."
He leaned over the seat and kissed me slightly, he couldn't really reach properly with the position we were in.
"Does that make you feel better?" Mighty asked with a laugh. It did, in some goofy way. I leaned over a bit to reach him better. That made the second kiss much less awkward.
Our lips moved in perfect sync with each other, though he led me along the way. I wasn't as skilled in this area as he obviously was. Though in the middle of the kiss, I felt something strange, almost like my whole body was flying, moving at top speed…wait a second. I opened my eyes to see the entire park coming at top speed, I guess they must have fixed the ride! Mighty was clutching on to me laughing like crazy while I had one arm latched to him and the other arm gripping to the safety bar.
Finally the ride ended and we slowed to a stop at the right spot this time. We were rushed be terrified family members, employees who were frantically apologizing, and even paramedics who were asking if we were all okay. Though all I wanted to do after I got off was leave that crazy ride.
Mighty and I were unlatched and we squirmed though the crowd of people. Man I never though that I would ever be so happy to walk again in my whole life. My head was still a bit dizzy from hanging upside down for about 10 minutes.
Mighty walked next to me and held my hand.
"So….I guess you want to head home now right?"
I looked over at him, he looked like he was trying not to look discouraged but I could see that he really wanted to stay, and I wanted to stay also, as long as I was with him.
"Nah…lets go on that roller coaster next." I gritted through my teeth, trying desperately to sound happy and pointing to a nearby ride.
Mighty jumped in excitement and hugged me. "THANKS NAKA-KUN! Lets go!" I let him drag me away to another ride, why do I think I'm going to regret this?
~with vector and espio~
"How long are we going to follow them Vector?"
"I don't know, but this is just too much fun to miss out on, they're so cute!"
"Okay that's it! I'm not letting Vanilla show you anymore yaoi online!"
"*pouty face* I just haven't converted you to the yaoi side yet…"
"And you aren't going to either…"
"Hey guys, what are you doing here?"
Vector and Espio turned around in fear that they had been discovered by their red headed roommate, but they calmed down when they saw and bunch of curly blonde hair instead.
Standing behind the boys was a rather well built older teen girl, who had her hair in two ponytails. A tight hot pink t-shirt that went a bit above her navel and a jean skirt with pink sneakers. She had a big smile stretched across her strawberry scented lips and pink eye shadow over her brown eyes.
"Vanilla? What are you doing here." Espio asked, rather annoyed. (yes I changed Vanilla's age, everyone is in their teens in this story…"
"Well I was meeting Silver and Blaze here but they canceled on me after I got here." She poked out her bottom lip and crossed her arms across her chest. "So now I have no one to hang with. But what are you guys doing here, and where's Mighty?"
"We're are actually here because we are stupidly following Mighty in Vector's attempt to get a free yaoi show-" Espio immediately covered his mouth when her saw Vanilla's eyes grow twice in size and sparkles appear in them.
"YAOI SHOW! INCLUDING MIGHTY?" She squealed and hopped. Vector and Espio tackled her behind a bush and covered her mouth.
"Shh, we can't keep spying if you don't keep quiet." Espio whispered.
Vanilla sat up and fixed her skirt and her hair, "Right right, sorry about that," she grinned sheepishly. "Do you think I can spy with you guys?"
Espio was about to decline her offer when Vector popped in.
"Sure you can, I could use another yaoi lover around."
"Eee! Thanks guys!" She stood up and reached in her pocket, grabbed a strawberry lollipop and placed it in her mouth.
"Where is Mighty anyways, and who's the other guy?" Vanilla asked as they began walking
"We'll fill you in after we find Mighty, mkay." Vector and Vanilla ran off, leaving Espio to catch up behind them.
Espio groaned, "They are going to be the death of me some day…"
~back with Mighty and Nakama~ Mighty POV
After another few roller coasters and a bumper car ride, Naka and I were heading to the restraunt. I didn't realize that it was almost 3pm already.
We sat down and ordered two sodas and two cheese burgers, perfect amusement park food. I took a bite of my food.
"So are you having fun Nakama?"
He sipped his drink, "yup…"
I would normally be upset by the nonchalant response but that's just way that he talks, I've gotten use to it.
I didn't want to be rude and stare at him, but I couldn't help myself, he was so cute when he ate. He would take a small bite of his burger, almost as if he was scared of getting messy, and then he would take a sip of his soda. I can't believe that someone as sweet and calm as him would ever hurt someone.
My mind wandered back to what he told me about that girl, Yolie. Was she really dead because of him? I just find it so hard to believe that he could do that.
I shook my head clean of any other thoughts. I didn't care about Nakama's past, but I wasn't going to let it repeat in his future, I wanted to protect him, to do my best to keep him happy. I like it when he smiles, but I like it even more because I know that I'm the one who is making him smile.
I smiled at him, and he looked back at me, looking as confused as ever.
"…is something wrong?"
"huh…oh nah everything's fine." I laughed, "you just look cute when you eat."
He blushed and focused his eyes on his food again.
We finished our meal mostly in a comfortable silence, which was a good thing, it's nice to just sit back and relax for a bit especially after our long day. And It wasn't even over yet.
"Well, its almost 4pm and we've been here most of the day, so what do you want to do now?"
"hmm…we whatever you want is fine…"
Typical Nakama answer. I tapped my chin in though, well I did have something else planned for us.
"Well I was planning on taking you somewhere else, in case we got finished here early, wanna go there?"
He looked over at me and shrugged, his way of agreeing with me.
"Okay great, lets head out then. The next place isn't that far from here, and it will give us some nice time to relax."
We headed out of the exit and bid goodbye to Ray.
"See you later Ray, and thanks again for those tickets, I owe you one." I waved goodbye and began to pull Nakama along with me down the street.
~with Vector, Espio and Vanilla~
"I think we lost them….again. You two always lose your concentration." Espio huffed, crossing his arms.
"Well how were we supposed to keep focus with those two being so cute." Vanilla added with a fan girl-ish squeal.
Vector placed his hand on his chin, looking very serious, "Mighty is the perfect actor in this yaoi drama, and Nakama is the perfect misunderstood uke… We just need a dark room and a dramatic situation to seal the deal." Vanilla squealed in agreement while nodding her head vigorously.
Espio face-palmed himself, "You two are hopeless."
"We still have no idea were they are going…" Vanilla said, still with a grin on her face.
"I think I might have a clue to where they might be, follow me guys." Vector ran off out of the park with Vanilla and Espio hot on his trail.
TBC
Kinda ended on a cliffy right there, but I will put the next one up before I stop for school, and I promise you lots and lots of romance! And I know that making Vector yaoi obsessed is completely OOC but I couldn't help myself, and Vanilla just looks like a potential yaoi fan girl. R and R, tell me how you liked this chapter, okay!
