Em's P.O.V.
I woke up to a very excited Arabella bouncing on her bed. "What's with you?" I mumbled, stifling a yawn. "FAIRGROUND FAIRGROUND! RIDES AND CANDYFLOSS! GET UP!" and with that she leapt onto my bed and stood over me. "Alright I'm up! What time is it?" I sat up and blinked sleep out of my eyes. "Nine exactly. I'm going for a shower. Get changed!" Belle ran into the bathroom, tripping over a cabinet on her way out.
I was laughing as I went over to the shopping bags that we hadn't unpacked despite going shopping more than a week ago. I pulled on a black vest top and shorts that reached just above the knee. I was just pulling on my new tan, leather sandals as I realised: we don't know if there's any fairgrounds open in Atlanta. With that thought, I grabbed my bag and slung it across my shoulder (after I put mascara on) and opened the door.
"I'm going to the motel office to look for any leaflets and ask about the fair!" I yelled to Belle, doubting she would hear me.
"Okay!" Belle said, before carrying on singing something by Blink-182. I jogged over to the office, seeing the Winchesters' curtain pull back at the sight of movement from out room. I opened the wooden door and was greeted by a brunette girl, asleep behind the information desk. I began to rifle through a pile of leaflets, finally finding one promoting a fairground not too far away.
I was reading through the leaflet when the girl woke up. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to wake you up." I said as I looked up at the girl.
"It's okay. I shouldn't have been sleeping."
"I was wondering, have you been to this fairground? Me and my sister were thinking of visiting and we were wondering if it was reliable..." I trail off.
"Oh, yeah. That's a good place, but why don't you visit a proper themepark?" She asked as she looked at the leaflet that I handed to her.
"We just like the atmosphere I guess." I shrug as she hands back the leaflet. " I have to go. Thank you for helping." I say as I walk out the door into the fresh air. I am about to take another step when I see one of the Winchester brothers standing to the left of the office door that had peeling green paint.
"Morning Em! What are you up to?" Dean smirked.
"Ah, erm, well, Belle and I were thinking of going to a fairground...this one to be precise" I handed him the leaflet and he looked at it intently.
"You know I'm not allowed to let you go alone, and I'm gonna feel real bad about saying no to this..." he looked down embarrassed.
"Oh! You guys can come with us!" I smiled, trying to convince him this is a good idea.
It was when it slipped out that I knew it was a terrible idea. What would Belle say? What would she do? She'd probably go in a mood and not speak to me, that's what. Dean was looking at me, not noticing my inner turmoil over inviting him.
"I'll have to ask Sammy... Actually roller coasters aren't really my thing. Maybe Sam will go with you though."
"Okay." I quickly said as I grabbed the leaflet. " See you Dean." And with that I spun and did a sort of jog-walk hybrid that probably looked like a gallop, away from Dean.
I ran inside the motel room and threw the door closed behind me. Belle was sitting on her bed with a hairdryer and hairbrush, tugging knots out of her flame red hair. "What's with you?"
"I asked Dean to the fairground." "Okay...what'd he say?"
"It's not his kinda thing, but he's asking Sam" Belle shrugged before returning to her hair. I looked at her new outfit; a pair of black shorts with diamanté belt, a white Jack Daniels T-shirt and black lace up boots that go up to her shins. "We're going to a fairground, not a fashion show, Belle." I joke.
"It doesn't mean I can't look smoking hot." She laughs.
"I guess your hair backs that point up..." I start to mess with my hair and decide to put it up in a pony tail in the middle of my head. "I'm sorry for inviting them Dean said we couldn't go and I wanted us to have fun because we haven't and we've both been through so much and I was excited and and..." I finally take a deep breath after saying the whole speech without breathing.
"Hey hey! It's fine! We knew they'd come anyway, right? Besides, I'll persuade Dean to come so I can see him cry on rollercoasters!" she laughed evilly and walked to the mirror to apply her make up. "What is it with you and making boys cry?" I laughed, sitting on my bed.
"It's all I can do to stop them falling in love with me!" she winked.
I start to laugh as I walk into the bathroom to brush my teeth and use the toilet. I hear Belle singing again to 21guns by Green Day. I'm about to step out of the bathroom when I hear a knock on the door, causing me to retreat and spy from a safe distance where I won't embarrass myself in front of the stranger.
I open the bathroom door a bit so I can see the front door and Belle opening it. Dean is on the other side. "Hello Dean, coming to the fairground? " Belle asked, crossing one leg behind the other.
"Nope, but Sammy will take ya" go on Belle, use your persuading skills.
"Scared green eyes?" Belle teased.
"Me? No!"
"well why aren't you coming?"
"Because..."
"You're scared! Scaredy cat!" Belle laughed.
Dean flinched, raising one hand to his forehead. "Oh my God Belle, be quiet, some of us don't know when to stop drinking"
"Ahh the classic hangover. Do you not want to smell hotdogs in the air and be spun around on rides so much you nearly puke?"
From the crack I was looking through, I could see that Dean was looking slightly green.
"I much rather keep the contents of my stomach down, thank you."
"Wimp." Belle muttered and I knew Dean heard because he said, "Fine. Let's go then."
"Fine." Belle said.
"Good." Dean shot back.
And with a finality Belle said "traa" and closed the door in his face.
I was concerned for Dean considering I'm the nice one, but you've got to admit imagining Dean standing looking confused would be hilarious.
"Alright Emmy, you can emerge from hiding!" Belle laughed, sitting back on her bed.
"Thank you! You sounded like you won" "Just because he's a lightweight doesn't mean he can ruin my fun!"
"Fair point...I'm ready to go, you?"
Belle fluffed her hair around her shoulders before winking at herself in the mirror and standing up. "As the wise and majestic Mario once said, let'sa go!" we left the motel room feeling awesome.
I was rooting through my satchel when we arrived at the black impala. Dean and Sam were nowhere to be seen.
"Maybe we should have told them what time we were going." I say as we look around like weirdos expecting them to appear in mid air.
Belle marched over to the Winchesters' door. She started to knock so loudly that I'm sure every person staying at the motel could hear. As she was knocking Sam opened the door with a look of confusion on his face, "Why are you knocking so loudly?" He questioned.
"The fair? Me, Em," I waved from by the car as she said my name, " you and Dean." Sam looked slightly confused, but shouted Dean to the front door.
Belle began to talk to dean and after a few minutes he waved her over to the car and shut the door. "Everything okay?" I asked as Belle jogged over to me.
"Peachy, they're on their way."
We waited by the car for a good five minutes before they made an appearance, a slow appearance, but still an appearance.
"Hey!" Dean yelled.
"Hi" I replied and gave both the Winchester brothers a smile.
"Let's go, guys. Unlock the door, green eyes and we can fly through the roads like, well us." Belle laughed as she looked at me.
Dean opened the car doors and Belle yelled "Shotgun!" Dean chuckled as Belle ran to the passenger seat side.
"Wait, what?" Sam asked, looking confused.
"I called shotgun" Belle smiled smugly
"But I always sit in the front."
"Sorry Sammy, she called it!" Dean smirked, getting into the drivers seat.
I sighed at her silliness and got in the right side of the car, so I was diagonally behind Belle and straight behind Dean. Sam reluctantly sat in the back; I think he was still both confused and sore over the fact that he wasn't right next to Dean. Belle was messing with the radio flicking through country stations until she came across a station playing rock songs. At least I think they were rock songs. To be honest I wasn't paying attention, I was flicking through my old, almost dead phone.
"SWEET HOME ALABAMA! " Belle sang along to the radio. I shook my head and continued to flick through photographs on my phone, pausing on one of me and Cas when I tried to teach him what a selfie is. "Hey does that camera still work?" Sam smiled looking down at my phone.
"Yeah, why?" he took the phone from me and snapped a photo of me and him and I didn't actually blink or derp at the last second.
"Why did you take a picture?" I asked.
"I mean why wouldn't we take a picture. I for one want to remember later on the feeling and look of not being sick because of fairground rides." He laughs.
I smile as I look at the picture again then continue scrolling. Another picture pops up of me, Gabriel and Belle standing outside of a candy store eating strawberry laces and Cas staring with a quizzical look on his face as he stretched his out, analysing it. The next photo shows Belle, me and Gabe eating the biggest ice creams I've ever seen! I put my phone away and began to take interest in Belle and Dean's conversation. "No way dude! The Ramones are waaaaaaaay better than ACDC! " Belle laughed, flipping through Dean's tape collection.
"Are you kidding me?! Listen to Back In Black and tell me you couldn't take on the world after it!"
"Yeah but Sheena Is A Punk Rocker is like the ultimate song to get crowds pumped! Em back me up here!"
"Sheena is a punk rocker is like the ultimate song to get crowds pumped." I repeat automatically having only just joined their conversation. I hear Sam laugh next to me and Belle and Dean go on with their conversation.
"So who's your favourite avenger?" Sam turns and asks me. I almost look at him in shock. He likes marvel?
"Umm..." I think for a second, "either Captain America or The Hulk."
"Captain America? The Hulk I understand, he can turn into something and do the Hulk smash, but Captain America?! He wears lycra and throws a shield."
He did not just dis one of my fictional boyfriends. This means war.
"What?! He is amazing! Who's your favourite?"
"Obviously Hawkeye."
"Oh so Captain America is lame because he wears lycra but Hawkeye is cool because he's a wanna be Robin Hood!" Sam's mouth fell open, with the corners tipping up into a smile.
"Oh good lord, have you dissed Captain Gorgeous?!" Belle asked in mock anger. "Yeah he did!" I replied, stifling giggles. "Personally, I don't have a favourite Avenger...I love Loki instead" Belle winked.
"I thought you had a soft spot for Thor, Belle?" I ask and laugh as she starts to think about Loki.
"I mean he's alright I suppose, but he's no God of Mischief. I think he should just ask me to marry him- I mean mischief is my middle name."
"I thought your middle name was Judith." I laugh.
"Captain Gorgeous?" Dean questions as he joins the conversation, "I mean has no one acknowledged my presence of gorgeousness."
I start to laugh when I realise he's serious...
"WE'RE HERE!" Belle yells so loudly I actually have to cover my ears.
"Belle the next time you shout like that I'll swerve the car" Dean breathed deeply. "Sorry! I just really want to win all the games!" Dean parked the impala and we got out, walking towards the huge funfair. People bustled around in groups of at least six.
"Hey Belle, Dean! Smile!" I turned around with my phone and took a picture of them looking like they actually don't hate eachother for once.
It was quite an artistic photo, if I do say so myself. I put my phone away in my pocket and turn to see Sam watching me. I smile and do a jog up to Belle and link my arm through hers.
"I saw Sam looking at you." Belle says.
"So, he's just being friendly." I say quickly.
"Yeeeeeah course he is! " Belle winked, before turning her attention to the fairground. "Oh! There's a big wheel, and a hook a duck, and rollercoasters! Oh and there's the waltzers, and a carousel and CANDYFLOSS!" Belle gripped my hand and pulled me over to a small pink and white stall selling candyfloss.
"Hi we'll take two please" Belle smiled at the black haired guy behind the stall. He blushed slightly and began to whirl candyfloss around a pink and white stick before handing one to Belle and starting the other. Belle passed the stick to Sam who looked confused. "Oh you do like it don't you?" Belle asked, putting money on the counter.
"Yeah, I love it, thanks" Sam smiled, picking off some pink fluff and eating it. "Good, share with Dean though" Dean chuckled and took a huge handful of candyfloss, stuffing it in his mouth.
"Thank you."
Belle smiled, taking the candyfloss and beginning to walk away. She held it out to me and I grabbed a piece, slightly dubious of its fluffy texture.
It wasn't that I didn't like candy floss, it was that I'd never tried it. Sensing this, Belle gave me an encouraging smile and I took a handful. I tasted it and it felt like the clouds were melting in my mouth.
"This's good." I said around a mouthful. Everyone groaned in agreement.
Belle pushed some candyfloss in her mouth and scanned her eyes over the fair. A group of teenage boys ran passed us, laughing about some unknown joke. I ate some more candyfloss before Belle could grab another load.
"Oh my God, bumper cars!" Belle laughed, nodding towards a large arena style stall, with different coloured carts racing around, crashing into eachother.
"Let's go!" I grabbed Belle's wrist and tugged her over.
"Hey Green Eyes, you and the Empire State Building are welcome to join us!" Belle yelled as I burst into fits of giggles.
"Empire state building?!" I questioned through the laughter.
"He towers over us. I mean you can't miss him. Why not empire state building?" We got in line for the bumper cars when I heard Sam and Dean a couple of people behind still sounding confused over the building incident.
"Maybe I should drive the cart?" I say. Belle was about to protest when I interrupt her, "If we take into consideration the state of your driving, I think you should side with my idea."
"Fine, if you really want to drive then we'll go in separate cars. I'm a great driver, shut up!" Belle squeezed my hand and I nodded slightly.
"Two?" A girl about my age grunted, holding her hand out for money. Belle obviously didn't appreciate her attitude, so she tossed the money into her hand with a sickly smile. I walked over to a blue cart whilst Belle found a red one and sat down. I strapped my seatbelt over my waist
After I settled in the car I turned and spotted the Winchester's. They'd taken the same approach as me and Belle - single cars.
I turned back around and saw Belle. Giving her a mischievous smile, I nodded over to the Winchester's waiting for her look of understanding. She gave a thumbs up; the plan was simple really, we'd trap one of the brothers in between us and bump him at the last minute.
The lights started to flash and the chattering became quieter. Music started to blare and increased my adrenaline.
I pushed my foot down on the single pedal and instantly felt a jolt to the back of my cart. I turned in my seat to see a laughing Dean backing away in his green cart. I turned the cart and started after him, crashing into a teenage boy on my way. Belle came up on my side, smashing into Dean and causing his cart to swerve into a father and son duo on his side. Belle overtook Dean and I started after her, trying to find Sam on my way. I saw him eventually, over to my left, gradually edging closer.
I grinned at him and decided that it was upon myself to personally take him down. I sped up so he'd have no opportunity to overtake and give me whiplash. Luckily for me he was stuck in between two teenage girls in separate cars. Taking the opportunity I sped up again and crashed into the trio.
Sam smirked and reversed quickly, coming after me. I laughed and sped off, realising I was level with Belle who was being pursued by Dean.
"Enjoying yourself Emmy?!" Belle laughed, swerving her cart into mine. I laughed and bumped into hers in return, eventually falling behind. Dean came to my side and smashed my cart into another; Sam's. Sam laughed and threw my cart into Dean's.
I laughed to myself as I realised they'd adopted mine and Belle's tactic. The frauds. I made a battle plan in my head: I slowed the car down so that the brothers were in front of me and spun the steering wheel, holding on for dear life, causing the brothers to spin in different directions away from me. Serves them right, the idiots.
Suddenly the carts slowed to a stop and a voice over the tanoy told us to 'step safely out of the carts when they have come to a complete stop'. I un-buckled my seatbelt and stood up, stepping out of my little blue cart. Belle linked me, laughing at Dean, who had forgotten he was wearing a seatbelt and tried to stand up whilst it was buckled. Sam walked to my side, grinning smugly. "We totally ruined you two! " he chuckled as Dean ran to his side.
"No you did not!" Belle protested with a smirk. We left the bumper carts and began to look for our next ride.
As we walked along I saw a ride that was at least twenty feet tall that dangled you high up and spun you around.
"We need to go on this!" I started to say at the same time Sam it. I smiled at him and we walked over to it.
"Are you both not coming?" I shouted to Belle and Dean.
"I think I'll give this one a miss. I'm starting to feel a bit sick..." Belle yelled. She sat on a bench as Dean followed her and sat down next to her.
I walked with Sam to the queue, which actually isn't that long considering how awesome the ride looks.
"You been on this before?" I asked Sam, getting slightly nervous.
"Yeah, once when I was fifteen. Dean took me to a fair and told me that this one is a baby ride and that I have to go on it. I only threw up twice" he laughed at the end and I began to regret my choice of rides. "Scared?" Sam asked, looking down at me, concern etched across his face.
"A bit yeah... I've never really been in many rides what with not having very much money when I was younger... I'm still excited though." I said as I kept doing a sort of jump/step combination on the spot. We were drawing closer to the front of the line and I was becoming increasingly more nervous than I was before.
It seemed like two seconds since Sam and I were talking, when we were getting seated on the ride; I yanked the harness over me, making sure the bar clicked and I was secure, Sam did the same. My palms were starting to sweat when the ride attendant checked the bars.
"You can still get off you know?" Sam said loudly over the music that was playing throughout the fairground, looking nervous himself.
"No... I'm fine. I want to. I just have to get used to it." I replied trying to be confident and smiling, despite the nerves, or vomit, that was bubbling in my stomach.
"Hey, you wanna hold my hand? Not that I'm scared or anything... " Sam looks around nervously and I grab his hand in mine, squeezing slightly. He squeezes back and I hold my breath.
"Alright, hold on tight here we go!" The ride attendant grins, pushing a huge red button and starting the ride. We shoot forward and Sam grips my hand tighter. I close my eyes and scream as the speed takes control of my body and we start climbing up a ramp.
"Open your eyes quickly!" Sam laughs and I open them.
I can see the whole fairground from up here! "Oh look, there's Belle and Dean!" I laugh, nodding to the ground. Sam strains his neck to look but there's not enough time, the ride launches back into action, whooshing down the drop. Sam and I scream and I notice the ride camera flash. We spin upside down and eventually stop.
"That was amazing!" I yell as we pull into the loading station. I looked down and saw that I was still holding Sam's hand, which made me blush, and dropped his hand quickly.
"At least I don't feel like I'm going to barf." He said awkwardly, resulting in me laughing just as awkwardly as Sam sounded.
The harness opened slowly and I stepped out of the plastic seat onto the shiny metal flooring. "Let's go and find Belle and Dean."
"Sure!" I grabbed my bag from the belongings shelves by the operating booth and we started to walk to the benches where the two wimps were sitting.
"How was it?!" Belle grins, linking arms with me.
"It was awesome! What's next?"
"I was trying to persuade Dean into coming on the Ghost Train with us..."
"And the persuading isn't working" Dean chuckles, walking to Belle's side.
"Please! Pleeeeeeease! I'll never ask for anything ever again I swear!" Belle pouts at Dean and he rolls his eyes dramatically.
"C'mon Dean, we ain't afraid of no ghosts" Sam smiles, elbowing Dean in the ribs.
"Fine, fine, I'll go on it!"
Belle runs to the Ghost Train, pulling me with her and laughing manically.
We stand in yet another queue and Belle and I start to talk.
"So what did you and Dean do, whilst Sam and I had fun and weren't boring?" I ask curious, but slightly sarcastically.
"I'll tell you when we get to the motel, I'm mentally prepping myself for the ghosts." Belle jokes.
"All right. By the way I have dibs on sharing a cart with you!" I laugh.
"It's four per cart anyway, but two in the front and two in the back. We're gonna have to sit in the front because they are giants and I wanna see some ghosts! " Belle grins as we move forward in the queue.
"Alright, there's your cart" the ride attendant nods toward a black cart with a white skull on the front and belle leaps into the front seat. I sit next to her with Sam and Dean behind us. The ride jolts into movement.
"We're going on an adventure!" I shout to Belle, waiting to see if she understood my reference.
"The Hobbit! Nice." She said and gave me a high five as we turned the first corner.
"You two boys okay back there? Do you need to hold someone's hand, because Em's are free." Belle shouted after a fake skeleton was launched so heavily that it nearly hit poor Dean's head.
"I think we're fine, thanks. Do you need to hold anyone's hand, because mine are always free." Dean flirted.
"Can you stop flirting?" I whispered, cringing on the inside at the two of them.
"I wasn't flirting, he was just throwing himself at me" Belle laughs as a pair of ghosts appear in front of us.
"Guys, I'm too tall, they're gonna hit me" Sam groans as the mechanical ghosts reach his forehead. Dean collapses into laughter, as does Belle, and I have to hold back my laughter to focus on a witch riding a broomstick on the left.
"Hey look belle, it's you!" Dean chuckles, pointing at the witch.
"Ha! My flying is much better than that thank you. Although, I'd still prefer to kiss her than kiss you" Belle smirks and Sam barks out a laugh. I high five Belle, who's too busy laughing at her own joke to notice a devil above us.
I let out a small shriek as it swoops down, barely missing my head.
"I might be starring in an episode of casualty at this rate." I say to Belle as I sit back up from my slumped position that I was in to avoid a small devil decapitating me.
"Casualty?" Dean questioned.
"It's a tv show in the UK." I explained quickly.
Lights flashed as we trundled into the final section of the ghost train. All forms of paranormal entities descended upon the cart as we sharply turned around corners.
A camera flashed and the ride came to a stop outside. Belle climbed over me before I could even stand and ran to the photo kiosk, laughing hysterically and exchanging some notes for a photo. I walked over, Followed by the Winchesters.
"Look at this!" Belle cackles, opening the photo case to show me our ride photo.
" Look at us! Look at your face Dean!" I laugh, pointing to Dean's screaming pose.
"At least my hair ain't flowing in the breeze like Sammy's" Dean chuckles and Sam blushes.
"It's perfect, we are flawless" Belle smirks, tucking the photo under her arm.
"I'm sorry to wrap up the fun, but it looks like the fair is closing now." Sam said as we started to walk away from the ghost train.
"Let's go then." Dean said as Sam and him walked away to the direction of the carpark.
"I'm so tired." I mumbled as Belle jumped around full of pent up energy.
"Well I'm wide awake!" Belle exclaimed.
"Remind me to never let you have sugar after 8 o'clock." I replied. We linked arms and followed the boys to the impala; climbing in I lay my head on the cool window and got lost in my own thoughts, barely noticing when we pulled off.
"I'm so awake. I'm gonna have to go to the forest or something this isn't good" Belle mumbles, watching out of the window.
"You can't go on your own, one of us will have to go with you" Dean replies, in a low voice. They think I'm asleep.
"Well then in that case, I'll stay in and watch a film or something. Or call Gabe."
"Do not call Gabe. I don't wanna be dealing with his crap tonight" Dean groans and Belle laughs lightly.
"Is Em asleep?" Sam asks, and I hear him turn around in his chair.
"Only one way to find out...Emmy it's me, Bucky Barnes is standing outside" I smile and Belle laughs. "She's awake, barely. I'll order room service when we get in, so she eats."
"I can stay and watch over Em if you want? I mean I'm not doing anything, and Dean could go for a walk with you, if you really want to." Sam suggested.
"I'm not four, you know?" I whispered almost incoherently "I can look after myself."
Belle laughed, "Much like my darling sister, who snores in her sleep, I too can look after myself."
"Being honest, I don't trust you to stay in the room Belle. I'll take you to the forest for a bit, I'll even walk ten steps behind you so you're not embarrassed" Dean suggests and Belle sighs.
"I'm okay with that I guess. I'll ask Em if she's okay with Sam until I get back" Belle clears her throat and then begins talking to me in Enochian. "Emmy does that sound okay? I know it's awkward but I really need to get out, I'll go insane staying in"
"Yeah, that's fine. I'll just sleep anyway" I reply, still in Enochian.
"Maybe you and Sam can bond over a Disney film?!" Belle replies with a laugh and I smack her arm lightly.
"What did you just say that made her smack you?!" Dean chuckles and I can see Belle blush even with my eyes closed.
"Nothing! Are we almost there? I'm bored"
I giggled at Belle's swerve to avoid and awkward conversation.
"Maybe you and Dean can bond with your ten step separation." I spoke to her through my mind with my eyes still closed, shielding my vision from the street lamps that flashed by.
"Never in a million years!" I opened my eyes and burst out laughing as she shout-whispered it through the mind link. Sam turned around and gave me a confused look probably thinking I was crazy for laughing. I stopped and reverted my eyes to my lap whilst still smiling slightly.
The car stopped and we got out, walking onto the gravelly carpark. "Alright, I'll see you later then Em. Sam look after her. Oh and have you ever watched Peter Pan?" Belle turns on her heel to look directly at Sam. She's reading his mind, I can tell.
"Peter Pan? I've heard of it I think...it's a kids film right?" Sam asks, shoving his hands in his pockets.
"It's not a kids film! Well, maybe it is...but it's also my favourite! " I smile, blushing at the idea of a kids film being my favourite.
"It's in one of my shopping bags Emmy, you guys should watch it" Belle grins, heading for the forest with Dean following.
"Thank you so much you useless turnip, you do a great job of embarrassing me" I reply in our mind connection.
"That's what I'm here for!" Belle teases.
Sam and I started to walk to the motel room Belle and I shared.
"Sorry if it's a mess, but we've not had time to tidy." I apologised, feeling slightly guilty knowing that I was the one who was supposed to tidy up.
"It's fine - Dean and I hardly ever tidy up." Sam replied.
"You don't have to watch a movie you know, I'm still tired from the fair." I told him.
"Seriously it doesn't matter, I've always wanted to watch Peter Pan; to tell you the truth, I've never watched a disney movie because of having to grow up early and stuff..." He trailed off, almost mumbling.
I stood there in shock, how horrific! Never watching a disney movie! "You've got to have watched a Mickey Mouse film! Or at least a Disney tv show!" I exclaimed, then blushed realising I was letting my inner nerd overcome my senses.
"Nope, never." He said smiling at my outburst.
I rummaged through one of Belle's bags, finding the Peter Pan dvd and ripping open the packaging.
"We have popcorn somewhere...here is is" I grab the bag of popcorn from my bag and throw it on the sofa, next to Sam, who has sat down and is watching me, smiling. I push the dvd into the player and switch on the TV with the remote. The Disney castle appeared, along with the well known jingle and I caught a glimpse of Sam grinning at the screen. I open the popcorn and offer him some, he grabs a handful and begins to eat, not taking his eyes off of the screen. I eat some too, focusing on the film as it begins. Throughout the film I watched Sam's reactions and facial expressions as well as watching the story unfold. He looked like a little kid at Christmas. He knew exactly when to gasp and shouted at the screen at the same time I did. Maybe Sam had an inner fanboy...
As the film finished I looked over to Sam who was struggling to keep his eyes awake. I guess having fun required a lot of energy, which I and, by the looks of it, Sam had used up. I pulled my hair out of the high ponytail whilst sitting on the sofa and used my fingers to brush out the knots; slowly trying to not wake Sam, who'd slumped over in a silent sleep, I made my way to the bathroom to wash my face.
