《AMOUR》Chapter 48.
Advertisement
As soon as I woke up in the morning. I did not care if I disturbed any of the two while getting out of bed, I rushed out to get ready because we were going to the fucking Wonderland. Call me a kid but that place just makes me so happy.
I got ready and came out of the room to see Denver gone and Jordan still sleeping. With a few hard pats on his back he woke up and went to get ready. It was 9 am when I got downstairs and was surprised to see Dave and mom talking to each other as if they were deep into a serious topic. When they heard me coming, they looked up and smiled at me.
"Morning," I kissed my mom's cheek and ruffled Dave's hair.
"Dude, not fair," He grumbled and we laughed as he tried setting his hair back again.
"You made breakfast?" I asked, turning to mom.
"Yeah, Pancakes. Sit," she commands and I sit next to Dave.
While I start eating my pancakes, the others join us as well. Anna being the last one as usual. We all keep it as light as we can when it comes to pancakes but full enough to cover for our car ride. Once we're done, Anna and I apply our sunscreens, keeping the bottles with us and divide ourselves in the cars.
We switched it up a little this time so Denver got in with Ian and Anna and Dave got in with Jordan and me.
"And it's time for 2021 playlist," I announced connecting my phone to the car just as Jordan followed Ian's car out of the drive way.
Cage the Elephant's Cigarette Daydreams plays and I sink in my seat with a satisfied groan.
Heaven.
"So this is your favourite," Jordan smirks, still driving.
"Current, yes," I nod, my eyes closed as I take in the song.
"What were you and mom talking about when I got down," I ask Dave, turning just a little to him.
"Big people stuff," I can hear the smile in his voice as he leans forward.
"Uh-huh," I nod, sounding very convinced by his answer.
"So, Dave," This time I fully twist, giving him a very big grin.

"Why do I feel like I'm the prey this car ride," Dave points out and I chuckle.
"Because you are," Jordan laughs.
"Any girls we don't know about?" I raise my brow at him and I'm pretty sure I say a second of panic in his eyes.
"No," he lies straight through his teeth.
"Boys?" I tilt my head a little.
"No," he deadpans, telling the truth this time.
"Hmm," I know he won't tell anything right now but I'll keep trying.
When we reached the Wonderland parking lot, we've talked about everything we could, sang like idiots, talked about A quite place 2 and what not. We were currently on a speaker call with the members of the other car to find parking spots.
"This place is packed," Ian sighs from the other side, his car in front of us.
"But it's 11 in the morning?" Denver says and I imagine creases in his forehead.
"Exactly," Anna whines, "We're an hour late. The place opens at 10 and people start getting in lines way earlier than that," she huffs.
"Didn't know this was that big of a deal," Dave mutters from our side and Jordan, me, Ian and Anna all scoff at the same time.
"Ooh I found two spots together, follow Williams," Ian cheers up and I sigh.
"I'm right behind your slow ass Saunders," Jordan says and Dave snorts under his breath. The next thing we know, he hangs up on us and we finally laugh.
We get out of the car and Jordan makes a run for the ticket counters with Ian right behind him.
"Fucking kids," Anna shakes her head, looping her arm around my shoulders, her black sunglasses covering her eyes but her smile is still there.
"You love that kid," I state, pointing my head in their direction.
"Damn right I do," she smiles wider and I laugh, my eyes meeting Denver walking with Dave on our right. His glint with playfulness while mine adores him.
I look over to see Dave smirking at me and look back in front. We reach the two kids and follow them as they hand over the tickets at the entry. Going in we pick up the map to all the rides and see what can help in loosening us.

We decided to start with Wind Seeker and got in the line, getting the seats pretty soon. It's the ride with a lot of hanging seats that spreads out on the top and spins us. We took our seats as close as possible and the ride started.
Anna was the first one to hoot and then everyone on the ride followed. We were all laughing at one point with the ticklish feeling we got from being in the air. Getting off the ride, I couldn't stop smiling.
I missed home being like a home.
"Time warp!" Anna grabs my hand and we make a run for a spot. We had to wait for the current ride to finish and so we made a plan about how we're going to go around the park.
"We're so going to behemoth after this," I point it out on the paper.
"What's the Dragon Fyre?" Dave questions pointing out and Ian smirks, only one way to find out.
And we did. We went on the time warp and behemoth and the bat, sledge hammer and the Dragon Fyre too. We also bought Mix-it-up Ice that only Jordan refused like always and now we were heading to eat Pizza Pizza.
"Pepperoni and cheese for me," I smile at Ian while taking a seat on the table that was under the shade.
"Same for me," Anna gives him the same tight lipped smile and sits across me.
Ian raises a brow at us but the guys head in without saying anything. They return after 15 minutes with pizza boxes in their hands and it's our time to raise our brows.
"What," Denver asks, "we're hungry," he shrugs.
"When are you guys not," Anna mutters and I chuckle.
Dave takes a seat on my right while Denver on my left. Jordan facing Dave, then Anna in the middle and Ian in front of Den.
They open up the 4 medium sized pizza boxes revealing a pepperoni, cheese, chicken and veggie pizza. We take in the intoxicating aroma and dig in. Once we are full, we take a walk around the place, visiting the gift and souvenir shop and pick up a bunch of stuff that we will never use but still take home.
I was checking out the tie and dye t-shirts with Anna when Jordan literally drags me to the bracelets section.
"What are you doing?" I ask him, we already saw this section before.
"Shush," Jordan says and then I notice Denver standing in front of the tall rotating display. His attention focused on the designs.
When I reach next to him, Jordan raises my arm from behind me and Denver wraps something around my wrist before I can say something. I look down to see him tightening a plain knotted leather wrap and notice they are wearing them too. While mine is pure black in colour, Jordan's is grey and Denver's is navy blue.
Fuck, they can be adorable sometimes.
Denver looks up after tightening the wrap and smiles at me. There's so much love in his eyes and I can drown in it.
"If we weren't in a place like this, I would fuck you right here, right now," Denver whispers and I cannot form words.
"So flustered Roya, I bet you're soaking under those shorts," Jordan adds from behind me.
"Thank you," I blurt out and then raise my wrist, explaining. I'm sure I look like an idiot. I walk back to Anna and I can feel their eyes on me all the time.
Once we're done with all the shopping, we go and click pictures on the tiny bridge and decide to just have Beaver Tails to eat in the car and call it a day. Once we're handed our individual pastries, we head to the parking lot.
"These are so good, why haven't I eaten these before?" Dave asks as if he wasn't allowed to eat these pastries.
"I don't think they are in Vancouver," Jordan thinks.
"Nopes, don't think so," Anna takes another bite.
We all go to our cars and the girls take the backseat this time. We both don't mind because we know that we're going to doze off as soon as we finish eating.
"Roya, what's your Spotify?" Dave asks and before I could speak with a full mouth, Jordan answers.
"Here, I already follow her, choose one playlist," he hands his phone to Dave and I smile at the thought of Dave liking my music choices.
Jordan must have seen me struggling to stay awake because he tells me, "sleep babe," and soon I drift off listening to Matt Maltese's As the World Caves In.

Needletongue, Carrotcake
The world isn't fair. If anything, the inherent injustice of the world is what separates it from the fiction we so adore. Luis Freighthold knew this all too well, and that was why it took a bit longer than it should have to realise when he suddenly had everything he could ever have wanted. Raised in a working-class single-father home, Luis had no other escape than fiction. Specifically, vampire stories of varying quality and genre. There was something appealing about the ability to fly, turn into shadows and become smoke. Danger. An unfamiliarity with the social world that rejected him so. Was it so wrong for him to hope for a different life? Maybe, maybe not. Either way, now he had it—a lust for blood and abilities beyond the understanding of civil man. Could you really say that he had anything left to complain about? A vampire story following an unconventional vampire boy forced to accept that maybe becoming a vampire doesn't magically solve all your problems. As a matter of fact, it might just make a whole bunch of them even worse. Regardless, Luis is prepared to try everything to live up to the vampire books he had previously gorged on. What did it matter that his vampire form had no teeth, replaced instead by a long, needle-tipped tongue? He was still a vampire, wasn't he? Chapters are around 10 A4 pages long, releasing once a week on Mondays, 01:00 CET.
