After Josh had accompanied Wesley on the Haunted Mansion ride, he was certain she was crazy. He figured she was too into Disney, especially when she kept going on about how everything fake at the park seemed tacky compared to the real things.

When they past a guy dressed up as Gaston, she noted Gaston was gone after his fight with the Beast. Josh knew that already but she told him in a strangely specific way. Or how they went on the Pirates of the Carribean ride, she said Captain Jack Sparrow sometimes hid in the attraction. Josh argued that that was just a robot, Wesley argued that true it was a robot, but the real Captain Jack liked to make sure nobody was stealing his treasure.

Up until lunch time, the two went on rides and watched most of the shows that were preformed. They took a break to split a soft pretzel. Josh didn't have any money, but Wesley paid for it by change.

"It's all I have. You can only get so much out of the fountain", she explained.

"You took that change from the fountain? How did you do that without anyone seeing you?", asked Josh.

Wesley immediately looked as though she said the wrong thing, and tried to steer away from the question. "Anyway, Josh. You're from Florida?"

"Uh, no. New York. And to be honest I'd rather spend the start of summer there, tham here." He looked like he felt; annoyed and angry.

"Well, you can still have fun here, too. My mom met my dad here. She loved it here more than anywhere else in the world. She even came up with a motto, she loved Disney so much. She loved her motto, she used it to make my name. When Everyone Sings Loves Easily Yours. Corny, yeah, but I like it."

"That's kind of cool", Josh said, checking his watch. "Better get going, the park is closing."

"Okay", said Wesley, still sitting.

As Josh got up, he watched as Wesley remained where she was. "You coming?", he asked, even though he didn't quite care.

"Actually. My dad will be around. We don't really like the same rides, so we split up sometimes."

"Yeah, that's what my family did, too."

"Not much fun when you're alone, huh?", asked Wesley.

"You were alone today."

"I'm never alone", she said, looking very smug.

Rolling his eyes, Josh took one more long look at her, then began pushing his way through the crowd to the front gates.

As Wesley watched him leave, she could only think of two things. One, she hoped she would see him tomorrow. And two, she couldn't wait to tell Zazu about this.


Future chapters will be longer, I promise.
