Oh my late update! Sorry! School stuff :(
14-Day Late Date
Dani's p.o.v
The wait's killing me. I kept glancing at Derek but I had no idea where we were going and he was giving no clues.
"Derek, where are we going?" I ask, looking out the window for any sign of anything.
"It's a suprise" he says with a smirk. I pout and cross my arms over my chest.
"Fucking suprises" I mutter under my breath.
..
After what felt like forever, Derek turned to me.
"Close your eyes" Derek tells me. I go to object but he stops me. "Eyes, closed, now" I groan and close my eyes. I feel the camaro park and the purr of the engine stops as Derek clicks the key off. "I'm going to lead you out" Derke tells me. I hear his door open and close. I hear my door open, the draft coming in. Derek leans over and unclicks my seatbelt for me. I feel his hand slip into mine. He helps me out of the car. "Keep them closed" he reminds. Then his touch is gone. I have to squeeze my eyes to stop myself from opening them. I jump when I feel hands on me again. "It's okay, it's me" Derek says. "You trust me right?"
"Of course" I say. His hand slips into mine again. He starts leading me again and I follow. We come to a stop and I feel Derek turn to me.
"I know you never got to really be a kid..neither did I. I just thought, for once, we could be the kids you know? You can..you can open your eyes" Derek says shyly. I let out a breath and open my eyes. My eyes widen instantly when I take in my surroundings. Ferris wheel. Cotton candy machines. Games. Face painting. Photo booths. Balloons. Clowns. Food stalls. Rides. We're at a god damn carnival! "I hope it isn't too-" I cut Derek off by hugging him tightly and kissing him quickly.
"I love it!" I yelp, it's been years since i've been to a carnival. Last time I went was with my parents..so awhile back.
"You do?" Derek asks, unsure.
"I do" I assure him. I grab his hand and drag him through the front gates, beaming with excitement.
..
We went on every single ride..well, the ones they would let us one. Sure we got weird looks from parents bringing their kids here but we don't care. I skip by Derek's side, to overcome with happiness to care about anyone's judgemental stares. Derek keeps glancing at me, smiling, a smile that reaches his eyes. We eat cotton candy off a stick, our noses bumping a couple times, light blushes setting in our cheeks. It was the perfect date..as corny as that sounds. We played the games as well, ring tosses, water pistols, the lot. Now, we sat on the ferris wheel, the sun setting in front of us, most of the crowd cleared out leaving only us and a few other people on this ride.
"This is really nice Derek, thank you so much for today" I say, leaning on his shoulder.
"It's okay, I had fun too. It was nice to be a kid" he replies.
"It was" I say with a smile, looking over at the sun. "How'd you come about this?"
"Found it online. It was only here for three days, two days ago, yesturday and today's the last day" Derek explains.
"I'm glad my inner child didn't scare you off" I joke.
"I'm glad mine didn't to you" Derek says with a smile. We both slip into a comfortable silence as we watch the sun set.
"The carnival will be closing in 10 minutes. Please procede to the exits" a man's voice says over the speakers.
"We better get going-" I say turning to Derek. I'm cut off when his lips meet mine. My hands come up to run through his jet black hair. Our first proper kiss. Derek's hand comes up to caress my face as he kisses me. He pulls back, nibbing my bottom lip just as our cart comes to a stop at the bottom of the ferris wheel.
"We're closing up, please make your way to the exits, hope you enjoyed your visit" a blonde says, undoing our bar, with a smile.
"Thanks" Derek says and offers me his hand again. I take it and we walk, hand in hand, to his car. He opens me door for me, closes it behind me and gets in the driver's seat. He smiles at me and I smile back, cheeks still rosy as he drives me home.
..
Derek opens my door again, like a gentleman, and walks me to my front door,
"I hope you had a good night" Derek says as we stop at the door.
"I really did" I say, my smile still on my face.
"Me too" Derek returns the smile. We both start to lean forward. Derek's arm comes around my waist, pulling me close to him. Just as our lips touch, the front door opens revealing an angry Shrieff John Stilinski.
"You're dating him?!" he asks as Derek and I jump away from each other.
..
..
Aw! John didn't know they were dating just yet! Let me know how you feel about this story and if you want me to continue. Favourite, follow and please, please, please review! Stay golden :)
