"Didn't know you were here, too! By yourself, too?" I say,

"By myself, as well!" Y/N replies, smiling slightly. I nod. Looking around. Awkwardly.

Do it, Billy. You can do it! DO IT! Ask her if she wants to hang out, with you!

I sigh, and take a deep breath.

"Oh, I see!....hey! Wanna maybe go on the ride's together, Miss??" I ask, playing with my finger's nervously. She look's up at me, and gasp.

Oh, no....

"Yes!! C'mon, let's go!" Y/N yell's, grabbing my arm. She then begins dragging me to the first ride. I look down, watching how our hands collide. She's holding my hand! Woah....she's actually holding my hand.

I looked up, and smiled.

The whole group and I were just standing at a random spot, eating the food that we picked out. I was eating my slice of pizza, till I felt a tap on my shoulder. I looked up, and see Bruce looking at something.

"Hey, Finn. Is that your sister?" He ask's. I got confused, and looked. I gasped, seeing Y/N! But she wasn't by herself. She was with Billy!

"Ya....ya! That's her." I reply,

"Whose that with her??"

"That's Billy! Billy Showalter. Y/N's little crush." I say, smiling. Bruce look's at me, surprised.

"Y/N has a crush on him?"

"Well, I'm pretty sure she does. She always talk's about him. Smiles every time I mention his name. And I'm pretty sure they hang out a lot, together. He even got her flower's!" I explain, 🫢😭

"Oh....they look like they would make a cute little couple." Bruce say's, smiling.

"Ya, they do."

We lined up for the carousal! Us about to go on next. The ride slowed down, people getting off. It's now our turn! We got in, and got on a horse. I buckled up, Billy doing the same. We waited patiently for the ride to go. The horses then slowly started to move. Billy and I laughing from excitement.

The horses then moved at it's full speed. I looked at Billy, and smiled. He looked like he was having a lot of fun! Billy looked at me, his smile growing even wider.

Billy and I were just playing the little mini game's, walking around. I looked to the side, and saw a huge stuffed animal that looked nice! I stopped walking, Billy noticing. He stood next to me, and saw what I was looking at.

"You want it?" Billy ask's, smiling gently.

"I-I mean, it look's nice! I don't know...." I reply,

"I'll win it for you." He say's, taking out a ticket.

"Wait, you don't have to-"

"Here's my ticket." Billy say's,

"Alright, sir. You have to throw each ball in each one of those slots, and not miss once."

"Easy." Billy say's, confidently. Billy threw the first 5 ball's, not missing one. He just need's to make one more, and he wins the prize. Billy focused, getting ready to throw the ball. He threw it, making it in the slot!!

"Impressive! Here, you win the lucky prize!!" The man say's, handing Billy the F/A stuffed animal. Billy turning, to look at me.

"Here you go! For you, Miss." Billy say's, handing me the stuffed animal.

"Why thank you, Paper Boy." I say, smiling. He smile's shyly, and nods.

"Wanna go on the rollercoaster??" Billy suggest, surprising me.

"YOU WANT TO GO ON THE ROLLERCOASTER? YOU??" I say,

"Ya? Rollercoasters are fun!" Billy replies.

"Ya, they are! Some people are scared of them. So you saying that surprised me. But, ya! Let's go on the rollercoaster!" I say. He nods, both of us running towards the roller coaster ride.

______

We got in our seat's, buckling our seatbelt's. I was jumping on my seat, excited.

"Miss?" I looked at Billy, and hummed. Letting him know to continue, on what he wants to say.

"May I hold your hand, please? I love rollercoasters sense they're fun, and all. But I still get nervous, and anxious. If It's okay with you, of course-" I immediately grab his hand, smiling.

"Anything for you, Paper boy." He smile's.

"3...."

"Don't have to be nervous, Billy."

"2...."

"Just put your hands up, and let the cold breeze hit you."

"1...."

""

"And, GO....!"

The ride than started, Billy holding onto my hand even tighter. I laughed, and put my hand up.

"It's okay, Billy! Nothing's going to happen. Here, just put your hands up." He nod's slightly, raising his hand up. Still not letting go of mine's. He takes a deep breath, and smile's.

"See? Not bad!" He nod's, laughing the entire ride.

* * * *

Billy and I were now having something to eat. I was drinking a milkshake, sense I wasn't really hungry.

"Mm! This milkshake is good!"

"Really-"

"TRY IT!"

"Whatever you say, Miss!" Billy quickly say's, grabbing a straw. Putting it in the milkshake, trying it. His face lightened up, after trying.

"Mm! Ya, it's good! I should order one for myself," Billy say's,

"Buy another one? THATS LIKE SPENDING TOO MUCH MONEY- if you want, we can share. I don't mind." I offer,

"But it's yours-"

""

"Okay!!"

Billy and I began to drink the milkshake, together. I looked up at Billy, and saw his face turning slightly red. Avoiding eye contact with me, as much as possible.

He finally looked up, both of us making immediate eye contact. I smiled, causing him to choke on the drink.

"Oh, damn- Billy, YOU GOOD?!" I ask, panicked. He starts coughing, but puts a thumbs up.

"I-I'm good!" He managed to say, still coughing.

"HOLY SHIT!" I yell, walking to his side of the table. Picking him up, hitting his back, trying my best to help. Not knowing that it was making it worse....

"Y/N- Miss, that isn't helping!!"

"I GOTCHU!!"

"M-MISS! Stop, please! Call for help-" he say's.

"Oh, right. Good idea! SOMEONE, HELP! HE'S CHOKING!!"

______

"You okay, now? Sorry if I was making the situation worse...." I say, Billy and I now just sitting on a bench, awkwardly. Billy look's at me, and does a reassuring smile.

"It's okay, Miss. you tried. I appreciate that. It mean's a lot, knowing that you were worried for me." He say's, making me smile.

"Hey! Did you hear about what's gonna happen, soon? They're gonna be doing fireworks, soon!! I can't wait." Billy and I hear someone say. Causing the both of us to look at each other, excited.

"Sweetie, can we go to the Ferris wheel? To watch the fireworks? I wanna get a perfect view!" I hear a couple say,

The Ferris wheel....!

I look at Billy,

"WANNA GO TO THE FERRIS WHEEL, TO WATCH THR FIREWORKS?!" Billy and I yell, in sync.

"You wanna go there, too?!" I say, surprised.

"Mhm...." Billy hum's, kicking his feet back and forth, looking down.

Aw!

"Let's do it, then." I say, grabbing his hand gently. He smile's. Both of us walking towards the Ferris wheel.

We make it to the Ferris wheel, immediately being able to get in. Sense, there wasn't that much people wanting to get on the Ferris wheel. We took a sit, excited.

"Hang on tight, guy's."

The Ferris wheel than began to move. Our seat slowly getting to the very top. The ride then suddenly stopped. As expected.

"Alright, everyone on the ride. We're going to be stopping it, here. So all of you lovely couple on the ride can have a good view on the firework's! Enjoy!" The worker say's. Billy and I both tensed up, looking at each other awkwardly.

"It's okay! We're just on this ride, as Friends who just want to see the fireworks."

"Right. Friend's...." I reply, looking back at the sky.

"Look, Billy! A full moon!" Y/N yell's. I looked, and she was right! The moon looked so huge, and pretty up close.

"You like the moon?" I ask,

"I don't just like it. I LOVE it! It's so pretty. I love space, and all that. Including rocket ship's!" Y/N say's, making me smile.

"That's something cool to be interested in," I say. Y/N looked down, and smiled.

"You seem like a very cool person to get to know. I love talking with you." I blurt out.

"HUH?"

Oh, shoot. Did I say that out loud??

"NOTHING! Sorry, Miss!!" I say, looking away. I can feel Y/N still staring at meee!! This is so awkward....!

"Billy, look! They're about to do the fireworks!!" Y/N yell's. I look down, and see the worker's getting the fireworks prepared.

"Alright, everyone that was so kind to come to the carnival tonight. We hold you all enjoy the fireworks!"

The fireworks than began to go off,

"WOAH....!"

"They look so pretty!! Are you seeing this?!" Y/N yell's.

"Ya....!" I say. But the thing was, I wasn't looking at the fireworks. The whole show, I had my eyes only on Y/N. Ya the fireworks were pretty, I guess. But they weren't as pretty as Y/N.

My thought's were cut off, when I felt something grab my hand. I tensed up, and looked down.

....she's holding onto my hand?!

"Oh, damn....!" I whisper, looking away. Covering my face, trying to stay calm.

"Don't have to be nervous, now. We're just holding hands as....friends." She joke's, laying her head on my shoulder. I turned to look at her, and smiled.

"Right. Definitely as just friend's." I laugh,

"That was fun!" I say, walking out of the Ferris wheel.

"Ya, it was! What do you wanna do next?" Billy ask's, politely.

"Mm, I don't know! I'm getting kind've bored, now." I reply,

"Oh? Wanna go? There's a restaurant near by that we can go to, for now. If you want to go?" Billy suggest. I smile, a nod.

"Okay, Miss! Let's get going, then." Billy say's. The both of us, still holding onto each other's hand.

We were all in line, waiting to go on our very last ride, before going home. I sigh, hearing a bunch of laughter coming from behind me. I turned around, and see Y/N and Billy exiting the carnival. Both of them....holding hands?!

"No way....!" I say. Bruce hears, and turns around.

"Well, off they go." Bruce say's, laughing. I roll my eyes, and chuckle.

"Where do you think they're going?"

"Not sure. But wherever they're going to, they better not do anything bad, under my watch." I reply,

"Protective over your sister, lemme guess??"

"Of course. She's literally my sister. Why wouldn't I be protective over her??" I say,

"They'll be fine." Bruce say's,

"Ya, you're right." I say, turning around. I smile, knowing that Y/N is happy.

Just as long as she's happy.
