《Cupid's Potion》Chapter 28: Its not a curse

😅
Walking in I inhaled the sweet aroma of caramel drizzled over apples and popcorn. I could hear people screaming from the adrenaline given by the carnival rides. I could also hear people encouraging others to play a rigged game.
Yea good times.
"So Saiki what do you want to do, since I was unwillingly kidnapped I don't know why I'm here." I gesture with my arm advertising the carnival.
"We're at a carnival what else would we be doing here." He flat out says.
"Well it could be a murder where you make me have the time of my life and bam you kill me. That's what your going for, right?" I question him but felt a hand grab my arm.
"Quit talking and let's just buy tickets." He pulls me away towards a ticket booth. He signals the woman we want bracelets instead.
Bracelets give unlimited chances to get on a ride instead of tickets so Saiki paid for that instead.
We walk around in silence letting the crowd of people do all the talking. I for one shielded my mind from others thoughts.
Looking at Saiki he looks in discomfort. I sadly look down thinking all the training we did didn't help him at all.
"The training was worth it." I snap my head towards his direction.
"Wait, you mean it's working?" I question excitedly not realizing that I'm jumping up and down.
"Yea now quit jumping you're making a scene." He bluntly says but I could hear some amusement laced in there.
"Fine I'll stop, but only if we get on every single ride!" I raise my arms sharply into the air smacking a person in the face.
"Oh I'm terribly sorry ma'am!" I crouch down to a woman in her early thirties. She looks up at me with surprise.

"Oh no it's quite alright it's my fault, but damn you can pack a smack." She rubs her nose in slight pain.
"Anyways I have to get going, my husband is waiting." She smiles and heads off to a scary looking man.
"Is it me or does she seem familiar?" I question Saiki but he just shrugs his shoulders.
"She kinda looks like the lady who served us tea." He says and I nod thinking this as well.
"Yea but that lady at the hotel wore something else and had more wrinkles. So it can't be her." I say and at that we end the conversation about her.
"Ugh that pesky little brat! I'm not old and I don't have wrinkles!" A middle age woman stomps her foot on the ground and clenches her fist in anger.
"Haha she's right you do have wrinkles!" The man I claimed as my husband laughs mockingly.
"I do not, now be quiet, I planted the bug on her." I smirk at him in success and he smirks back.
"Great, you finally did something right, now activate it and we'll wait for the right moment." The cranky bastard orders and I just roll my eyes.
"Yes sir."
Saiki and I walk around the joyful festival. Seeing all the rides preparing to turn on their lights since it's getting quite dark.
"Hey let's ride the swings." I point to a ride with swings that lift you up and go around in a circle.
"You mean the yo-yo?" I hear Saiki's monotone voice in my head or wherever it's coming from.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm talking about these
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Is that's what it's called? I usually just call it by how they look. But anyways let's go!" I hop a little in excitement to the swings that go high around 25 feet up the air. (Which is around 7.62 in meters or at least thats what google says I may be wrong)

We wait in line for around 15 minutes. Wasn't to special but our turn finally came.
"Since you guys are a couple you have to take the lovers seat." The not so interested worker says in French and I thank him.
"Hey, he said we had to ride on the couples seat." I say nonchalantly.
"If you say so." Saiki shrugs his shoulders, I'm quite glad he isn't bothered as much as I thought he would be. We arrive to the seat and buckle ourselves with a not safe looking buckle.
"So Saiki how does it feel to be able to control your power?" I question him in hopes this has helped at least a bit.
"It's great even though sometimes it's hard to make the shield, as you call it, appear but besides that it's awesome!" I could hear a small amount of excitement.
"I'm glad it actually worked!" I smile at him and I felt the swing slowly start to ascend straight up.
"Wait so you've never done this before?" He ask while looking at me.
"Nope, how many people do you think actually have psychic powers? Meeting you was a rare occurrence and I'm glad to help one of my own." I smile and look around at the beautiful view that passed by as the swings rotate.
"One of your own?" Saiki ask confused as to what I meant by that.
"Yea you know like Toritsuka, he use to struggle being a medium and I tried to help him the best I could at a young age." I say now looking up at Saiki.
"Although we didn't have the same gifts we worked it out and now he can control his power. Even though he uses them for inappropriate purposes." I state annoyingly.
"So you consider this curse a gift?" He looks away and at his hands once asking.
"Saiki your gift isn't a curse, you just see the negative side of it. Try looking at your scenario a positive way. You could help so many people. Trust me when I say your gift is beautiful I mean it." I smile at him kindly and place one of my hands over his giving it a gentle squeeze.
I look away and back to the scenery where I can see all the people walking beneath us like ants.
Though y/n couldn't see it yet, but her necklace slowly went back to a platinum silver and becoming less dark than it was before.
As well as Saiki though he wasn't sure what was happening with him he knew he was feeling happy. And he hasn't felt this way with anything else besides when he eats coffee jelly.
Though neither of them knew yet, but their hearts started to beat happily and simaltaneasly with one another.
Although it won't last for long.
