We were finally at the date location, a theme park. The sound of screams assaulted my ears. I was assuming, it was from the roller coaster. The area was filled with chatter of families, and couples. Though, this kind of environment makes him feel claustrophobic, having Ayame by his side helps greatly, 'I hope she likes this place…..'
"Wow!" Ayame suddenly exclaimed, catching me off guard. Her eyes with sparkling with wonder. She grabbed my hand, her grip surprisingly strong, "This place is amazing! Haven't been to a theme park in ages!"
My past worries melted away, replaced by a warm smile, "I hope you like it," I said, "I know it's a bit cliche, but…."
Ayame smiled as she leaned towards my ear and whispered, "Don't worry, Sora-kun~" Strands of her crimson hair tickled my ears, "I'll love any place, as long as you're there~"
I could feel my cheeks heat up, 'Damn! Why do I blush so easily!'
"Thanks…. And same," though her tone was playful, deep down I knew that she meant every single word.

Sora and Ayame first tried the roller coaster, Sora couldn't remember if he had ever tried the roller coaster, his childhood was a hazy blur–perhaps this was his first time? As the ride started, nervousness filled his being with a hint of anticipation.
Ayame on the other hand, was bobbing her head in excitement, "Ready, Sora-kun?" her eyes sparkling with excitement.
Then suddenly, everyone on the ride screamed, the climb had ended, and they were at the peak. Sora stole a glance at Ayame, a wide smile covered her face but before he could form another thought, the ride plunged downwards.
Sora's view became blurry, the wind crashing on his face. His grip on the bar tightened, on the other hand, Ayame's smile became wider, and her grip on Sora's hand became even more sealed.
Though Sora was feeling scared, a weird sense of excitement washed over him as the ride raced downwards, his lips stretched into a grin similar to Ayame's. Both of them screamed in excitement.
As the ride finally slowed to a stop, Sora his felt exhilaration wearing off with slight nausea. He glanced at Ayame, her hair messy from the wind, but the excitement was still visible on her face, 'This was way more fun than I had expected,' Sora chuckled to himself.

Stepping off the ride, Sora's whole body felt wobbly, his view getting slightly distorted from the nausea. But soon enough, he had managed to catch his breath, heart still hammering against his ribcage. Ayame, on the other hand, seemed barely fazed, her face still covered with a wide grin.
"Holy cow!" she exclaimed, slowly calming down, "I haven't screamed that much in ages!" her grip around Sora's hand finally loosened.
Sora also smiled, "Yeah, I was honestly scared at first, but it was very exciting," Ayame nodded in agreement, "I know right!"
"Let's rest for a bit, my head is slightly spinning" Sora's voice was slightly shaky.
Ayame giggled, "Same, how about some ice-cold drinks? My lips feel dry!"
Sora couldn't help but chuckle, "Sounds like a plan, Mrs. Fearless!" he teased, his energy slowly returning.
Together they walked towards a nearby bench, buying some soft drinks on the way. As they sat down, the cool air helped against the lingering nausea.
"Ah~ That hit the spot!" Ayame exclaimed after chugging the chilly soft drink.
Seeing her, Sora also chugged his drink, the cold drink sent chills of pleasure down his spine.
"Mhm," He also nodded in agreement while whipping his face with a handkerchief.
"Can I have that?" Ayame said pointing at Sora's handkerchief.
"Hmm? Uhh… This is wet with my sweat…" Sora replied awkwardly, "Even be– I mean, It's fine! Don't worry," Ayame said with a flustered face.
'*cough* That's why I want it, you dummy!' Ayame thought with her cheeks heating up.
"Sure, I guess," Sora handed her the handkerchief.
"Thanks!" Ayame took it quickly and covered his face with it.
If Sora could see under the handkerchief, he would notice her perverted expression as she whiffed the handkerchief etching it into her very being.
(A/N: fufu~)
'Ah~~ I fucking love this smell~' She was having very unholy thoughts.
