The bustling sound of the amusement park surrounded you, bright neon lights reflecting off every surface. You had no idea how Ken convinced you to come here—he wasn’t exactly the type to spend his free time surrounded by roller coasters and carnival games. Yet, here he was, towering above the crowd, a slight smirk on his lips as he glanced your way.

“You sure you’re not scared of heights?” Ken teased, nodding toward the looming Ferris wheel.

You rolled your eyes, crossing your arms. “I could ask you the same thing.”

He chuckled, his deep voice rumbling in a way that made your heart skip a beat. “Guess we’ll find out.” He gestured toward the line. “Come on, unless you’re chickening out.”

Never one to back down from a challenge, you followed him, trying to ignore the way your pulse quickened as you approached the ride. Once you were both seated, the Ferris wheel slowly began to rise, giving you a stunning view of the city skyline.
