Duncan's P.O.V
The park is like Gwen and I's place. We go there all the time, even though we look like not a fan of little kids, we sure act like them. We go on the swings, slide, almost anything we can fit on. Even though the parents always stare, we don't care about images, we never do, we're ourselves at our park.
Alright, flash back time.
It was our first time at this park, it was 2 years ago, 2010, we were both 18.
We ran to the swings, since they were the closest.
"Are you sure you want to go on these things? They look very unstable, and that sign over there looks says this park is for ages 3-12." Gwen said pointing at the sign at the front of the sign.
"Who cares about rules? I know you don't, and neither do I. Is it your image you care about? If you wanna leave I understand." I said shrugging.
"No, I don't care about image," she started smiling. "I just thought you might. Care to push my swing?" she finished getting on the swing.
"I'd love to." I said starting to push her swing.
I started to push the swing, it was a very high swing, I figured out a new characteristic of Gwen. She was afraid of heights.
When it got almost as high as the trees, she said something that made me figure out that undiscovered phobia of hers.
"Hey, can I get off now, it's kind of…high." She said stuttering.
"Are you afraid of heights?" I said pushing the swing harder, to make her go higher. Let's see how this girl reacts
"No!" she answered immediately, denial!
"Admit it and I'll let you get off the swing!" I yelled, smirking.
"Okay! Okay! Fine! I've been afraid of heights since I was 7!" she admitted.
I let her get down. I wanted to figure out why Gwen, my fearless girlfriend, was afraid of heights, there has to be something behind this.
"Hey, what is this story behind your fear of heights anyway?" I said raising my eyebrows.
"It's nothing." She said turning her head. I know girls, if they turn their head there hiding something, time to spill Gwenny.
"Well, there was to be a reason why you're keeping it a secret, than. Care to explain?" I said, hard to get, I like it.
"Says who?" she said raising her eye brows, putting her arms around my neck. Oh she's not gonna get out of it that easy.
She leaned in to kiss me, I turned my head "Hey!" I said pointing at her "you don't get to kiss me till you tell be why you have that fear of yours." I finished
"Ugh fine." She said, removing her arms away from my neck. "When I was 7, I went into a hot air balloon, thinking it would be fun, but it ended up not being fun. I bawled my eyes out because it was "too high" and when I got down I never wanted to go up again, so that's how my fear of heights formed." She finished her story.
"Okay, be free to kiss me." I said closing my eyes, leaning in.
That is the moment we decided to make memories at that very park.
