Chapter 12, guys! Thanks for sticking with me :) Just getting back into it now :)
Chapter 12
"We're here" Alex announced, breaking the awkward silence.
"Oh good!" Izzie exclaimed, pushing George out of the car as quickly as she could and fast pacing in the direction of the entrance to the theme park. The group bought a wristband which gave them unlimited usage of all the rides in the complex.
"So what ride are we off on first then?" Meredith asked Alex, seeing as he seemed to be the leader on their outing.
"I say we start with the roller coasters. Leave the Ferris Wheel until last." He answered.
"Why? The ferris wheel sucks. We should get that out of the way" Cristina shouted at Alex.
"If I'm driving us home, I want a nice clam ride before we leave, okay?"
"Fine, Evilspawn. You get your way" Cristina caved, walking in the direction of The Giant Dipper roller coaster. The group soon followed her and waited in the queue.
"So, who's sitting with who?" Alex asked while they queued.
" Up to you girls I say." George smiled at Alex as he nodded in agreement.
"Well, Me and Cristina will sit together…"
"I'll sit with Izzie." George smiled at Izzie, Izzie giving Alex a look as if to say that was for the best. Alex nodded back in agreement.
"That means you're with me" Owen said, jokingly punching Alex's arm.
The group got to know Owen better whilst they queued. The others in the group found themselves becoming very fond of the guy in front of them, as fond as you can get in less than an hour anyway. It only took a few minutes before the group were on the roller coaster as they happened to be near the front of the queue.
While the roller coaster was loading, Meredith asked Cristina what the deal was with Owen.
"He's different to all the other guys I've been with. It sounds so unlike me but I think he could be the one for me, so when he asked me out this morning, I said yes. He's actually a surgeon at Seattle Grace and…"
"You think it's a sign that your luck is changing."
"Yeah, I guess." Cristina smiled.
"He'll know Richard Webber then." Meredith grinned.
"He will. I told him that I was applying to do my residency at Seattle Grace."
"Well, the long distance thing works for me and Derek so there's no reason it won't work for you and Owen."
"Exactly." Cristina spoke a little too loud, causing people to turn and look at her. This was when the roller coaster set off.
The Giant Dipper styled in a sea blue colour with red boarders and a yellow sign with 'Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk' on the front cart dashed around the track, causing the boys to laugh hysterically with enjoyment, the girls screamed whilst enjoying themselves. Unfortunately for the girls, they were in the very front cart. Meredith and Cristina clung onto the metal bars around the cart for dear life, Izzie in the row behind held onto George's arm and in the cart behind them were Alex and Owen having a great time, laughing their heads off in a manly style. When the ride came to a standstill, the group of 6 stumbled from the ride laughing as they walked out of the ride exit.
"So what did you think of that?" Alex asked.
"That was amazing!" Izzie screamed, jumping up and down with excitement along with her other female companions.
"Shall we go on Hurricane next? That's another thrill seeker" Owen suggested.
"Let's go!" George exclaimed, grabbing Meredith's hand and dragging her along, the others once again closely following.
"I'm sitting with you this time, George." Meredith told her friend.
"That's fine with me."
"I'm sitting with Owen" Cristina told the others.
"And that means I'm sitting with you, Alex."
"That's fine by me." He smiled, putting his arm around her shoulder, her looping hers around his waist. "You sure you want to go on this ride? It's a bit... wild."
"Yeah, we're up for it." Cristina told him, the other two girls nodding in agreement.
"Okay then, let's get on it!"
For this ride there was a longer queue but this gave the girls time to psyche themselves up for the wild ride ahead of them. As the ride spun around the track above them, Alex noticed Izzie becoming tenser as her grip around his waist got tighter. Meredith was physically crushing George in a hug, trying to forget what she was letting herself in for whilst Cristina looked so calm but deep down was slightly nervous about what she was going to experience.
The group finally began to board the roller coaster, filing in from the front. As luck would have it, the group were once again at the front of the coaster. This time Owen and Cristina opted to sit at the very front with Meredith and George behind them, then Alex and Izzie behind them.
Once everyone had boarded the ride, the coaster set off from the station at a slow pace as it climbed up to the highest point of the ride, which it then descended from like a hurricane at high speed, twirling round and round the track. Izzie clung onto Alex as if her life depended on it. She felt safe with Alex. He held her hand as tight as he could, and for the first time in public if he remembered correctly. It was the first time they had held hands a couple and this brought a smile to both of their faces. In front of them Meredith, Cristina and even George were screaming, the difference being Meredith and Cristina were screaming with fear, as they quickly spun around the track. Owen could be heard laughing at the rest of the group behind him.
When the ride stopped, Meredith and Cristina couldn't find it in them to move. They were stiff with fear.
"Get off the ride, unless you want to go around again!" Alex shouted after them. This caused them to scurry off and away from the ride.
I know it's been a while but I've got a my obsession with Ron/Hermione from Harry Potter still continues. I am coming back to Lexzie, I am trying to write more updates for this, promise. If you want updates, message me. I will update, I still need that push from you guys.
Thanks for reading! Feel free to follow me on Twitter: Randomness0612
I will update my twitter posts when I update this fic or just in general to keep you updated on the progress of my fics.
Also feel free to leave me comments on twitter, ideas for fics or just general feedback :)
I am currently working on a Lexzie/ Romione fic (GA/HP crossover) if any of you would be interested. The main plot behind the fic is that Izzie finally finds out who her father is, and that is Mr Granger (Hermione's dad). As you can see from here, it could get... interesting :)
Thanks Again,
Nikki.
