First Kiss - Elizabeth Hill (ebook reader for manga .TXT) 📗

fear?”
“No.” I said plainly.
“Quit making this so difficult!” Elana said. We were at the stairs that lead up to the seats. I smiled.
“How do think your going to get me up the stairs?” I knew Elana wouldn’t be able to drag me up there.
“Easy,” I heard Chase say then he lifted me up the stairs. I gasped and fought to get out of his grasp.
“Let go! I don’t wanna go on!” He handed me to Elana who dragged me onto a seat then paid the guy working the Farris Wheel. When we sat down I noticed the cart had enough room for Chase too.
“If your making me get on you are too.” I said grabbing his hand. He sat down and just smiled.
“I hate both of you. Your going to traumatize me!” I said just as the Wheel started to move.
“Whatever, it’s a learning experience.” Elana said shrugging.
“Of course it is,” I mumbled. I looked at my feet and saw just how high we were. I let a little shriek escape my mouth.
“Oh shut up!” Elana said admiring the view.
“You! If it weren’t for you then I wouldn’t be here afraid!” I slapped her arm.
“Ow!” She slapped me back.
“I am so surprised that neither of you have a thousand bruises.” I heard Chase say.
“No bruises just a few scratches.” I say for the first time noticing how close he is. I feel very self conscious so I put my attention back to my fear. When of course the Wheel stopped and of course we were the ones on the very top.
“Let me repeat I hate both of you.”
“Let me repeat I don’t care.” Elana said.
“Hey, you’ll thank us some day.” Chase said.
“I don’t think so, when are they gonna move this thing!” I could feel sweat building up on the back of my neck.
“Calm down.” Chase said.
“I cant! You guys made me get on this stupid thing and now we are on the friggin top! Out of all the other friggin carts we have to be the one at the top! Just my luck!” I was rambling, and I knew I was but I couldn’t help it. When I am scared I talk, a lot.

And the worse part is I was so caught up in fear that I could barely notice when Chase rubbed my back. I didn’t even notice when the cart started moving either. And when I was too frozen to get up off the cart that Chase had to carry me yet again. Fear really sucks and today it ate me alive. I went to go get a lemon aid and something to eat and they both followed me.
“How you feeling?” Elana said. I wanted to punch her so bad right there. I gritted my teeth and said,
“Fine, I would have felt better if you hadn’t made me go on that thing. But whatever. If I do thank you for making go on that thing it won’t be any time soon.” I said and went back in line.
“Lemon aid and hot dog please.” I stood waiting while Elana kept her distance. I didn’t like being angry at her. Really the whole situation was laughable. But still I told her no but she didn’t listen. When I got my food and was done paying (with Chase’s money I might add) I went over to her.
“I’m sorry okay? I know I am a baby but you need to listen to me!” I playfully punched her in the arm.
“Well you are a baby. I mean really? The Farris Wheel? Are you kidding me?”
“Shut up!” I said but still I was laughing.
“So you’re not mad anymore?” I heard Chase say from behind me. I slowly turned around. No, I wasn’t mad, but he helping the situation didn’t really help.
“I’m a little mad, but no not really. You know you didn’t have to help her!” I said feeling the anger bubble under my skin. But I wasn’t going to get as mad as I would have.
“Learning experience!” He yelled smiling. I rolled my eyes.
“Can I please go home now?”
“Have you had fun yet?”
“If I say yes will you let me go?”
“No.”
“Fine! No I have not had fun because there is nothing fun here! Can I go now?” I already knew the answer but asking helped sometimes.
“What will I get?” Inhale, exhale.
“You won’t get a punch in the face if you drive me home.” I knew I could walk right now, but I would rather have a ride.
“Fine, come on.”

When we finally got to my house all I wanted to do was take a hot shower and go to bed. But when I looked at my watch it was only four thirty.
“Thanks for the ride, hate you for making me go.” I said getting out.
“Of course you do!” He yelled back giving another five beeps before I was completely inside. I smiled and shut the door. I wonder what was up with the five beep thing. Was it our thing? I hoped so, or at least was going to pretend it was.
“Honey?” I heard my mom yell.
“Coming. Sorry I was out so late, after the concert I went to the carnival.” I made my way to the living room and sat down on the couch next to my mom.
“The carnival? You hate carnivals and Farris Wheels.” She added. I could feel the color in my face draining. She took one look at me and gasped.
“You didn’t! Did someone make you?” I nodded but smiled.
“It was all in good reason, but I am still alittle . . . spooked.” I said.
“Okay, how was it?” I looked at her like how do you think? “Okay, I can take a hint.”
“I’m going to go take a shower and go lay down, okay?”
“Sure sweetie.” She said turning on the TV and lying down. When I got out of the shower I headed straight for the bed. I let the coolness of the pillows take my fears away, and I sunk into a deep sleep.

The whole dream was him. Not even a little back round or sky. Just him, his eyes, his mouth, his hair. Everything. At some points Chase would say things. Or smile. The smile was what caught me. But other than that I would just stare at him. With out having to look away of embarrassment. His sunrise eyes would blink like the would if he were real. And I still felt the urge to kiss him like it was real. In my dream everything was real. The only thing that ruined it was when I woke up.

I could feel the wet liquid before I knew what it was. But I could hear a nose sniffing my face so I was pretty sure it was Ollie. I screamed at him but he just sniffed me more and whined.
“Shut up!” I was so mad! I was having probably the best dream of my life (dramatic maybe?) and now it was gone! And I was probably going to forget it by two thirty, tops.
Ollie has lying down, but he was still whining. So I gave him alittle pet on the head. What was I going to do all day? I wasn’t the type of person to sit around and do nothing. I found that stupid and lazy. To think alittle I went downstairs to eat alittle breakfast. I looked around and saw only frozen waffles and a cup of syrup left. I also saw a note on the kitchen table saying that my parents went out for alitte and that they would be home later. Great now I was going to sit home all day with nothing to do with no one but me and a dog. I sighed and put the waffles in the toaster then went to sit at the kitchen table. Weather said hot all day, well maybe I could use our pool. Yeah that’s what I will do I’ll invite Elana and Taylor. I had to apologize to Taylor and Elana was just a friend.

I invited them and they agreed, though Taylor was alittle uncertain about it. But she said yes eventually. I got changed into a yellow bikini and flip flops. When I had both my hair and teeth brushed I grabbed a towel and headed outside. The pool water was crystal clear a pretty blue. I stuck my big toe in the water and a shiver went up my spine. I laid my towel on the ground and sat in one of the patio chairs. As I waited for my guests to arrive I heard the familiar five beeps. What the flippers was he doing here! I got up and walked around to the front yard where I waved at him. His eye brows went up as he got out of his car.
“Hey, what’s with the swim suit?” He walked over to me.
“For swimming what would you think? I do have a pool in my back yard.” I said wanting to cover myself with a towel, or do something so that he wasn’t looking at me.
“What are you doing here anyways?” I said.
“Well you had a concert yesterday, but I wanted to hang out with you.”
“You did, remember you forced me on the wheel of death.” He smirked at my words.
“Yea well I would have liked to hang out with you when your not scared to death.” He still had a smirk on his face but his expression softened just a bit.
“Well your welcome to come swimming with me Elana and Taylor,” I smiled. “Oh right, both girls want to go out with you. What to do, what to do . . .” I was still smiling at my little joke. He shrugged.
“So is this an invite?”
“Yes, it is. Your welcome to accept, or not.” I headed to my back yard but I could still hear him say,
“I’ll be back.” In the fake voice that everyone tries to imitate but never can.

Taylor and Elana got there before Chase came back. I was starting to think he wasn’t coming. But maybe it was better that he didn’t come. We were sitting at the edge of the ten foot deep end trying to decide how to go in when I heard the five beeps.
“Who’s that?” Taylor said in her pink bikini it looked pretty on her. But as she says it would be better if she had boobs.
“Uh, I forgot to tell you I invited Chase.” Both their jaws dropped.
“What!” Elana shrieked in her one piece white bathing suit.
“Guys it doesn’t really matter! He’s just a guy.” I got up and walked to the front yard to see Chase walking over to. Or at least I knew he was walking over when I bumped into him.
“Oh, sorry I was just coming to get you.” I now noticed now that he didn’t have a
