96. Thrilled
"No."
"Oh, come on, Len!"
"There is no way."
"Seriously? Just try it!"
Len glares at the twisting structure before him. "Rin, I refuse to get on that rolling deathtrap."
"It's called a rollercoaster, you dork. Come on, it's really fun! You have to try a rollercoaster at least once in your life." The bow-wearing girl bounces up and down, pleading with her date. "Please, Len? Don't make me go alone! The Rolling Master 8000 is meant to be experienced with a partner!"
He can't say no to the puppy-eyed look she gives him, and she knows it. "...Fine. If I die on there, though, I'm going to annoy you for the rest for eternity as an angry, evil spirit."
"Yay!" Without waiting for him to change his mind, she drags him to the surprisingly short line. I bet they all had the common sense to run away and live.
"Dude, I nearly fell out!" A blue-haired guy says as he walks by. "It was awesome!"
"Some guy threw up and created this super gross yet epic circle during one of the turns," Blue's buddy replies.
Len's stomach roils uncomfortably.
"Let's go!" Rin yells, pulling him onto the sleek, purple two-person seat.
The things I do for love, he finds himself thinking in Courage The Cowardly Dog's voice.
Unfortunately, within moments they're rising into the air. His slim fingers grip the bar for dear life, while Rin giggles with excitement beside him.
"Woohoo!" She says, even though they've barely moved.
He shoots her a look, hoping he won't end up losing his lunch.
Without any warning, the ground drops out from under them, and they plunge down at terrifying speeds. A cry rips from his throat, the wind stinging his eyes. Rin screams in delight.
As they twist and turn, rumbling over the track, a soft pressure is applied to his hand. Rin's. Somehow, because of her gesture of comfort during the mind-numbingly frightening ride, he is able to clamp down on his terror.
Finally, finally, the ride ends. Len falls to the ground in relief, panting, his heart pounding at a mile a minute.
Rin pats his back. "Wasn't that thrilling?!" She asks, grinning.
"S-sure…" He says weakly.
"Haha! I knew you'd like it if you just tried! Alright, so let's try out Bloodbeard's Flight of Horror!" She gestures to the tallest rollercoaster in the park.
Len passes out.
A/N: Kind of based off the end of 'World is Mine- Len Ver.'. Also, I failed with rollercoaster names. forgive me. :P
