Nihao, aru! Here is Chapter 6 ;D This is one of the longest chapters I've written after a while because I wrote a lot for the experience on the roller coaster. You [want to] know why? Because—I swear, without my knowing until the middle of the story—I ended up writing my own first time experience. And let me tell you: that was my first and last time riding a roller coaster! Unlike Kai, I will not face my fears of that super speedy ride. Also unlike Kai, I didn't have a boyfriend with me to save my soul (forever alone! xP xD) but my friends were very supportive ^^ (until I found out they abandoned me when I went to buy myself an ice cream T_T ... I highly doubt they'll find this account too xDD). Anyways, hope you enjoy! ;D

Wei Xiang C: ~And a special celebration to Hong Kong and Canada! Happy Birthday :DD

Chapter 6

I felt jumpy going to the amusement park. I swung our hands back and forth as we walked, thinking about what rides there would be in the park and which one's we'd go on. Peter didn't seem to mind—he was kind and told me what all kinds of stores had and sold. I was very interested with the puppy shop and he said we could visit when we have time later. Or on another date.

At the main entrance of the amusement park, while I stared in amazement, Peter bought us tickets and had to drag me inside because I was just staring with amazement at how large the park seemed on the outside. The inside was beyond comparison. "Here," he said, holding out a folded diagram, "This is a map of park in case you get lost. Do you know my cell number?"

I nodded eagerly as I opened the complex map. Most of the rides in the park were roller coasters. Gong Dou has told me that roller coasters are like riding the jet streams in the sky: very scary and fast. But they sounded interesting anyways. I didn't want to push my luck and chose the shortest and smallest roller coaster seen upon the map. "Let's ride this one, Peter," I said, pointing at a small roller coaster named Steep Rush. It was close to where we were standing as well, so I thought it was a good decision.

"You like roller coasters?" he asked leaning close to where my finger pointed at.

I nodded eagerly but decided to tell the truth anyways, "I've never ridden a roller coaster before. This is my first time being in an amusement park. I want to try riding it—that's why I picked a small one."

"Okay," he agreed, helping me fold up my map back into it's original state. I decided over lunch I will discover how maps worked and needed to be folded. He yanked my hand gently and led me to the roller coaster. He was good with directions—probably better than I was—and I did not try to stop him even though the attractions surrounding us grasped my attention as well. The feeling of my blood boiling in my veins were the only things that stopped me from running up to the mascot in a black and white spotted beige bear costume (no, it is not a panda :P) and steal all the colorful balloons he held in his hand.

There was a small line that consisted of a range of thirty to forty people. This was a small roller coaster so it didn't gain that much popularity which was good for Peter and I because I doubted I could wait for two hundred other people to come on line. After two trips would be our turn and I couldn't help but jump slightly in our place in line. Peter smiled, probably because he was holding in a laugh, as he watched me look up eagerly at the ride. I would have blushed and stopped my silliness but I couldn't right now—the roller coaster was all that I held in my head.

When it was our turn, I dropped down everything that I believed would drop with my bag on the side and sat next to Peter. The bars went over our shoulders and buckled us in place so that we would not fall out. My feet felt comfortable in the compartment at the bottom and I felt blessed that I was still touching something flat to remind me of the ground. "Ready?" he asked, calm and awaiting as the ride began to slowly move.

I gulped down and inhaled deeply before nodding eagerly, "Ready!" 'Ready' was over exaggerating—I was not prepared for what came after. I felt safe as it slowly raised up the tracks, my heart seemed to be jumping up and down in my chest as it braced itself for the speed it would endure later on. But it was still bouncing up and down as we reached the top.

I thought my heart stopped as the pressure of gravity hit me like a tornado. I screamed at the top of my lungs. My voice so high that I thought I would shatter glass. But I didn't stop there. Even though the ramp had gentled, I was gasping for air as I saw what was next. I thought my heart would seriously stop and break or something because we rushed up the steep slope and rushed back down on the other side, this time longer than the other one.

I screamed more than before and higher than before. Tears seeped through the corners of my eyes but they did not fall—the wind pushed against them and they stood in place at the corner of my eyes. I wanted to just jump off into the lake below and cry myself calm but the bar was too tight—thank the heavens for that—and I screamed even more. Soon enough, we reached the platform once more.

I hadn't even noticed Peter's reaction to the ride—maybe that was because I was too busy dying myself. But I doubted he screamed like me. I doubted anybody screamed like me. When the bars were pushed upward and off us, I instantly climbed out and grabbed my bag along with other of my personal items, running out of the platform. I landed onto a bench nearby and dropped my items in my lap, my hands holding my face as the tears from the ride finally poured out.

"Kai," I heard a voice beside me with worry and dropped my head onto the shoulder of the source of the voice, feeling familiar arms around my shoulders. "Are you okay?" Nodding, I still didn't dare to peek out as tears dripped down my face and out of the cracks between my hands and cheeks.

When I felt myself calm down, I separated and started to laugh, "He he. I screamed really high on the ride…."

He kissed me gently on the lips and said, "Don't worry—we won't have to go on another roller coaster if you don't want to."

A wide grin spread on my face, "Who said I didn't want to?"

He smiled and held up his hands in defeat. I was really excited for the next roller coaster we went on.
