Casey sucked in a breath through her teeth. There weren’t many rides that she didn’t like, but there was one that she did absolutely despise. Always had.
“Are you sure about that? Are yousurethat you really want to watch a grown woman scream and cry on the merry-go-round? Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure I won’t miss, but—”
“Wait, are you serious?” Amira cut her off with a shocked laugh. “Do you really not like the merry-go-round?”
“It’s creepy,” Casey pouted. “There’s something about the horse’s eyes that just send shivers down my spine. And not the good kind! And the mirrors...What’s up with the mirrors? Something about them is creepy too.”
“You’ve got to be kidding me,” Amira laughed, shaking her head. “You’re just saying this because you don’t want to ride the real ride that you’re afraid of.”
“No, I promise, I’m telling the truth!” Casey said honestly. “Merry-go-rounds are creepy as hell and I don’t know why I’m the only one who sees it! Don’t you always get a weird feeling when you’re near the inner circle of it? I always expect someone to just appear to be standing there out of thin air. I always feel like I’m being watched if I ride a horse near the inner circle!”
“Wow,” Amira murmured. “I’m not even sure I want to enjoy the fair anymore after this. I think I’d rather just unpack your unusual fear of merry-go-rounds.” She snickered.
Casey narrowed her eyes. “Don’t laugh, I’m sure you’re afraid of something stupid too! And don’t try to get out of our bet either! You’re just trying to get out of playing the game because you know I’ll win and then you’ll have to rideyourleast favorite ride. Which is…?”
“The teacups.”
“What?”
“Stop laughing!”
“You’re making fun of me being afraid of the merry-go-round whenyou’reafraid of the teacups?!”
“It’s not that I’m afraid of them!” Amira defended herself quickly. “It’s just that it just feels weird to be sitting in a literal teacup. It’s like...It’s as if you’re sitting in a witch’s pot or something. I always feel like some big green lady with a broomstick and a huge hat will appear out of nowhere and start pouring boiling hot water all over me...Stop laughing!”
“That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard!”
Amira huffed and stomped her foot a little. “Are we gonna go play the game or what? I can’twaitto watch you cling to your horse in fear. I’m definitely taking pictures of it, by the way.”
“No,Ican’t wait to watchyoushiver in your boots when you’re forced to ride the teacup,” Casey smirked before marching forward with newfound determination. “Come on, I’m ready to play.”
Technically,both of them lost the bet because neither of them was anywhere near as good at the shooting game as they’d originally thought. Amira was actually slightly less bad at it than Casey was, though. She’d actually managed to hit one of the targets.
Casey couldn’t say the same.
“Merry-go-round it is.” Amira smiled at her, wickedly. “And- I’m taking photos!”
Casey stumbled down off the horse after her Merry-Go-Round experience. “Ugh. I hate those bloody horses.”
Amira watched her- how did she still manage to look sexy? Her short hair was all tousled. Her shirt was clinging to her in a good way.
“Right, Amira. Darts and Balloons this time. I’m for sure going to beat you at this!”
For some reason, Casey was freakishly good at throwing darts and Amira was absolutely terrible at it, which is why she ended up sitting in a teacup waiting for the ride to start. Amira watched as Casey joined her in the teacup and slid close to her.
“I figured I could hold your hand if you are afraid.”
Amira rolled her eyes but felt her heart rate speed up with the proximity of Casey, with Casey’s strong leg pressing up against her thigh. She took Casey’s hand and she felt desire inside of her.
Casey was really bringing something to the surface in her and she wondered where it would go next.
A few rides later and they were on the Big Ferris wheel.
Amira was mesmerized by the beautiful lights as their carriage reached the top it paused.
Casey’s eyes were on Amira again, burning into her, over her lips, her breasts. Amira felt that same rush of desire.
“I don’t remember the last time I had this much fun,” Amira murmured after a few moments of silence. “I’ve been going through a rough time for a while and things have been a little...” Amira broke off with a sigh. “But tonight has been amazing. Thank you.”
