Chapter 23 – Carnival
A brisk breeze blew the sounds of laughter and cheer on a beautiful spring day. Frisk and Chara walk up to a booth painted red white with the word "Carnival" in big letters atop it.
"Two please" Frisk payed for their admittance.
Chara gripped Frisks hand as they entered remembering when he had first asked if she wanted to go to the Carnival.
"So Chara… it's been a long time now, how would you like to go on a date?" Frisk asked her a few days back as they were walking out from school.
Chara's eyes went big as she grinned "Really?!"
Frisk chuckled, "Sure, the carnival is in town this weekend, why don't we go there!"
"I've never been to the carnival before." Chara blushed a bit.
Frisk slowed looking at her in disbelief "What? Really!?"
"Well, when I was young it was a rare occurrence, and they didn't exist in the underground." She retorted.
"Well then, I'll have to make sure your first time will be the best time ever!" Frisk grinned.
Chara laughed and hugged onto his arm, "I'm sure it will be as long as I'm with you."
There was everything you would expect at a carnival, but for Chara it was a sight to behold. Shooting games, whack-a-mole hammer games, and further back rides could be seen towering over the tents. A roller coaster, Ferris wheel, teacups, bumper cars, etc. The whole grounds had both humans and monsters alike. Like Chara many monsters had never been to a carnival and were entranced by the sights and sounds.
"There are so many rides and games! I'm not sure where to start!" Chara felt like a child again.
Frisk laughed, "We should go on a few rides, especially before lunch. Then we can play some of the games."
Chara snickered, "Well prepared are we?"
Frisk looked up rubbing the back of his head "Um…a little."
She playfully pushed him, "I'm only kidding." Grabbing his hand she tugged him on, "Let's go then! I wanna try some of those rides!"
Stumbling slightly Frisk nodded dragged along by her, "Ok ok!"
The pair started their way towards the many rides set up. "Oh oh! Let's go on that one!" Chara excitedly pointed up to the roller coaster that loomed above most of the other rides.
Frisk gulped, "You're sure you want to go on that first?" Chara nodded vigorously. "Alright then…"
They moved into the line to wait, listening to the screams of those who were on the coaster already. Finally it was their turn, sitting in the car they were strapped in and the protective metal bar pulled over them. Once everyone was settled the cars started to move, shuttering forwards.
As the coaster made its way slowly up the track, slowing to a near stop at the very top Frisk looked down the side. A shiver went down his spine, Frisk who saved the whole underground, fought many deadly monsters, actually died repeatedly, but for something like a rollercoaster…
Was a big baby.
The coaster started down, picking up speed rapidly and roaring down towards the ground. Frisk practically screamed with a death grip on the metal bar. Chara on the other hand was loving the rush of the ride. She yelled with everyone laughing and holding onto Frisk around the corners.
After a few round the ride finished, coming to a halt and everyone being released from their harnesses. "Um…Frisk…it's over now." Chara snickered.
Frisk was white as a sheet and rooted in place with his eyes wide. After a minute to compose himself and the ride operator yelling to him to get off, Frisk was able to pry himself off and move from the ride. Chara walked with him until they were back to the main area, "Hahaha, oh my…your face was priceless." She finally laughed seeing he was ok.
Frisk frowned, shaking his head "I can't help it, the thought of plummeting at high speeds in a rust bucket is a bit terrifying ok?"
Chara wiped her eyes and gave him a hug. "Aww, you'll be alright."
Frisk sighed and returned the hug, "Can we ride something less terrifying next?" Chara nodded with a big grin.
The rest of the morning and early afternoon the couple went on a slew different rides ranging from the teacups ride to the bumper cars. After the two started getting hungry and found a stall that sold all manner of unhealthy foods such as hot dogs, hot cats, glamburgers, and nice cream.
"Wow, monster food has really made its way around the human world, hasn't it?" Frisk noted as they sat on a bench to eat.
Chara shrugged sitting opposite him, "Makes sense I suppose. Didn't you mention carnivals usually have odd or unusual things? For humans I think this might count as unusual food."
Frisk thought it over before taking a bite of his burger, "Yeah that does make sense."
After lunch they would head to see the gaming tents (At Frisk's insistence).
"So all I have to do is hit the plastic moles as many times as possible?" Chara asked after they had found a game to play.
"Yep, it gets fast though so be careful." Frisk smiled as the game started up.
"All right, here I go!" Chara raised the hammer, the first mole popped up, and swiftly it was bopped. "I like this game." She hit another one, the game was speeding up. "You shan't escape me so easily vermin!" The game quickly got faster, and Chara moved with it hitting them fast and hard. As the game ended the screen on top flashed "New High Score!" and Chara had her scary smile on.
Frisk sweated a bit chuckling nervously, "Uh…g-good job Chara!" he complimented as she took the tickets that spewed out for her.
Next game was a water shooting game which both of them played with water guns trying to be the first to pop a balloon. Then they took turns shooting basketballs at various nets at different distance and heights. Finally coming to a stand for throwing a baseball at milk glasses.
"Oh I got this." Frisk paid the man at the game and picked up the ball.
"You get three shots, good luck kid." The man said.
Frisk held the ball, wound it up, and threw with all his might! The ball flew straight, and missed the bottles completely hitting the back of the tent area.
Chara almost fell over laughing "Yep, you got this all right."
Frisk frowned and picked up the second ball, winding up again and throwing with everything he had. The ball sailed and clipped the side of a bottle, but it didn't budge.
Picking up the last ball he looked at it then up at the bottles. Winding up he threw it with all of his determination. The ball sailed straight at the bottles, hitting those dead on. The bottles seemed to not move for a moment. Then they suddenly shot apart. "Yes!" Frisk cheered!
The man at the booth blinked and looked at the bottles, "Wow…uh…ya…did it?" he seemed near confused.
"I get a prize right mister?" Frisk asked.
"Uh…oh yeah, sure…anything in the stall." He blankly said.
Chara hooked her arm around Frisks shoulder "Nice shot, I knew you could do it."
Frisk had a huge grin, "Sure you did." Looking up at the various prizes one caught his eye. "I want that one!" He was handed a large plushy of as frog that looked a lot like a Froggit. Pulling away from Chara he turned and held it out to her. "Here, it's for you."
Chara reached and took the plushy blushing, "Aww…you won it for me?" Frisk nodded. "Your too sweet." She was touched, leaning and giving Frisk a kiss on the cheek. "Thank you!"
After the two had their fun of games they went on more rides, enjoying themselves until the sun was setting.
"Well, looks like we might have time for one more ride then." Frisk laughed looking up at the sky.
"Hmm…well then, I know just what to go on." Chara said holding her big plushy under one arm and Frisks arm in the other.
Frisk raised an eyebrow, "Come on, this way." Chara dragged him through the dwindling crowds towards one last ride. A large Ferris wheel that was set in the center of the park.
Frisk looked up at it, "Oh yeah, we never got to ride that yet."
There was no line to it, most people wanting to get on roller coasters or faster rides one last time. Frisk moved to get on, Chara moved off to the side and whispered something to the operator who nodded before running and getting in the basket with Frisk.
"What was that about?" he asked curiously.
"You'll see." She said sitting with her plushy in the seat next to her. The ride started, moving slowly as it lifted them higher and higher. "Isn't this amazing, I've seen these in movies and anime."
Frisk looked over the side at the slowly lighting up carnival. "It is nice."
As they reached the top the wheel slowed to a stop, "Uh...What?" Frisk blinked looking to Chara who jumped up and plopped next to him.
"Cliché, but effective." She smiled wrapping her arms around his.
Frisk, finally catching on with what she did blushed, "Oh…oooh." He snickered. "You watch too much anime."
Chara shrugged snuggling up to him, "Shut up and enjoy this."
Frisk shook his head with a loving sigh, turning towards her he looked down into her eyes. Chara looked up into his with a small innocent smile. Leaning up she reached and took his hand, "Thanks for today." She pulled Frisk into a kiss.
Frisk melted into the kiss, his eyes falling closed and pressing into the kiss. Chara practically purred, she loved the romantic atmosphere, and the naughtiness of making out with her boyfriend up in the private yet public spot. Holding the kiss she would move herself crawling into his lap and draping her arms over his shoulders.
At last Frisk pulled away, looking at her mischievous grin. "Glad you enjoyed our date."
Chara giggled, "It's not over yet lover boy." She winked, as he blushed she pulled him back into a hot kiss as the Ferris wheel started up again. Frisk knew their fun wasn't over just yet, though they would have to break once they reached the ground. But that feeling of excitement and joy, filled him…
WITH DETERMINATION!
A/N: So things are a bit rough with this chapter, the last bit was actually written right as I finished typing rather than written then copied in my usual refining and editing style, so for that I am sorry! BUT! This marks something else if you note, things are finally going to be turned up a notch! So everyone who enjoys the fluff will still get it all, and for those who want some more risqué scenes, your wishes will soon come true!
On that note, I will leave you with one last thing. As I realize some people do not care for the more naughty stuff, those of you who do, and have yet to favorite me but may be following, or just have yet to follow and favorite the story. We are 20 favorites away from 200, so if we can get those last 20 favorites before...lets say by St. Patrick's Day (March 17th) I'll be releasing a "secret" special naughty chapter for everyone of the night Frisk ended up spending with Chara after his return and Asriel locked him out of his own room. So remember to Favorite and Follow if you haven't yet!
See you all next time folks!
