I got this idea from Mar. She gave me a number, and it corresponded with Breathe. And then she said roller coaster, and I was like YES! So yeah. Like I said two days ago... short and sweet. It's not best quality, but I barely read through these before I posted them. XD
Breathe
"Elizabeth, it's going to be all right." Will wrapped a comforting arm around her shoulder. "It's just a roller coaster." Elizabeth threw a glare back at him as she walked towards the car of the Superman, her hands slightly shaking. Elizabeth wasn't a huge fan of amusement parks, and after having a semi-traumatic experience with a roller coaster in her younger years, she hadn't stepped foot on one since. Until today, that is. And this one was a killer. The Superman had no bottom, so your feet were suspended in midair. And it was fast. Really fast. She strapped herself in, making sure that the restraints were holding.
"Elizabeth!" Will sighed exasperatedly. "You're going to be just fine." He took her hand from the seat next to her. "Breathe. In. Out. There." Elizabeth stuck her tongue out at him. This had been his idea from the start, and she had been reluctant to go along with it. She'd rather go on one of the water rides and get wet than a thrilling, stomach-dropping roller coaster that made you scream your head off. But Will had dragged her along all the same, and now, as the attendant came and made sure that everyone was strapped in, she couldn't get off. The roller coaster operator's words about safety barely even registered in her nervous brain, and before she knew it, the ride jolted to a start. They slowly made their way around a bend and started their ascent to the top of the mountain. Will, being the crazy, wild, and daring one, made sure that they had seats in the front row, so Elizabeth got a great view, something she'd rather not have. As they climbed higher and higher, she looked down and put a death grip on Will's hand.
"Will…" she moaned, staring at the impending drop after the peak of the hill. "Will!" He rubbed her hand with his thumb soothingly, all the while trying not to laugh at her.
"WILL!" She started to scream as they hit the peak and plummeted down, gaining speed rapidly. The wind rushed at her long brown hair as they turned one way and the next, looping forwards, backwards, sideways, and then the upside down of a corkscrew part of the track. Her hand was still holding Will's in a death grip and her screamed mingled with the sound of the wheels on the track and the other riders.
"Put your hands up!" Will shouted. Elizabeth's eyes widened.
"Are you kidding me!" Will wrenched his hands from hers and held his arms in the air and let out a yell. Her small hands grabbed frantically for the handles of the seat. As they fell down another small hill, a flash blinded their eyes. Another twist to the left and a spin to the right and they screeched to a halt. Thudding back against the seat, Elizabeth closed her eyes and breathed deeply.
"Let's go again!" She heard the voice of her boyfriend from the next seat. Elizabeth scowled.
"I think not, William Turner. There is noway you're taking me on another roller coaster." Will laughed.
"This was only the beginning. Just wait until you ride the Poltergeist." Elizabeth widened her eyes as she unbuckled her harness. This was going to be a long day.
Just some background info on this... I got all the ride names from Six Flags Fiesta Texas. The Superman is way fun, but the Poltergeist... that's painful. You're in the car, and they don't tell you when they start the ride, and you accelerate super fast and keep going super fast through this spaghetti-like mass of track. And within like fifty seconds, you're done. It's sooo intense. Hahaha.
