InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Scandalous ❯ Amusement Park ( Chapter 16 )

Chapter 16: Fun at the Amusement Park

 

Dustin walked up to the door of Aine's house, holding flowers. He knocked on the door and Kagome opened it. “Welcome Dustin. It's good to see you again,” she smiled.

 

“Same here, I'm taking Aine to the amusement park today,” he stated.

 

“I'll go get her! Come on in while you wait,” she said and left. Dustin looked back at all the press that was following him and sighed. He was never going to get any privacy at this rate. He entered the house and closed the door behind him.

 

Aine came down the steps and walked over to Dustin. He handed her the flowers and she looked at him confused. “You got me flowers?” she asked.

 

“Well, this is our first date so I thought I could be a good guy and give you a real first date,” he stated. She smiled and hugged him.

 

“I love them! I'll go put them in water,” she said and went into the kitchen. She came back and grabbed his hand. “I heard there was going to be a fireworks show tonight.”

 

“I was hoping to surprise you with that, but I guess it's not a surprise anymore,” he smiled.

 

“I'll still act surprised! Come on let's go!” she laughed and pulled him out the door. A whole bunch of flashing cameras surrounded them taking pictures every second.

 

“I'm sorry about this Aine. They've been following me everywhere,” Dustin sighed.

 

“Look here press people! I'm going on a date with Dustin and I would appreciate it if you didn't follow us or at the least keep your distance! Please and thank you!” Aine yelled and pulled Dustin down the street.

 

“Well that was fast thinking,” Dustin said.

 

“It's our first date and I don't want it to be blind at the end of it,” she stated.

 

“You know, you still owe me a date from when I told you the exit at my concert,” he smirked.

 

“Isn't this it?” she asked.

 

“Nope! You were the one who asked me to go on this date, so that means you still owe me the other one,” he said waving a finger in front of her nose.

 

“Well that's a rip off!” she exclaimed.

 

“You mean you don't want to go on that other date with me?” he asked as he pretended to cry.

 

“You're a really bad actor you know that? You probably don't even know how to cry for real,” she stated hitting him in the arm.

 

“You'd be surprised! I've cried three times in my life and the third time was a couple days ago,” he said in a matter-of-fact tone.

 

Aine looked up at him curiously. “What were you crying about? Did you stub your toe?”

 

“Much worse actually,” he stated.

 

“Well what was it?” she asked getting impatient.

 

“I jammed my finger,” he joked. Aine hit him in the arm and glared at him.

 

“I don't even cry when I do that!” she yelled.

 

“I was kidding! Jeez, I'm not that weak,” he said.

 

“You sounded so much like my father right then that it's almost scary,” she laughed. Dustin sighed and draped his arm around her shoulders. They continued walking down the street, every now and then a group of girls would stop and squeal at Dustin.

 

“So are you going to tell me the reason why you cried?” Aine asked in a quiet voice.

 

“Why should I tell you that? You'd probably make fun of me or something,” he smirked.

 

“I won't I promise! I think it's nice when a guy can admit his vulnerabilities. It shows that you actually have some feelings,” she smiled up at him.

 

“It was because of you,” he whispered.

 

Aine looked up at him confused. “I made you cry?”

 

“You were in pain and I couldn't do anything to stop it,” he said. She looked up at him and then looked forward. She laid her head on his shoulder. Silence was all they needed.

Dustin and Aine entered the amusement park and Aine grew excited. “Look at that ride! Oh! Look at that one over there!” she exclaimed looking at all the rides. Dustin laughed as he watched Aine turn into a little girl before his eyes. She was so cute sometimes.

 

“Let's go to this one!” she smiled pointing at the rollercoaster. Dustin didn't even get to say anything as she pulled him toward the ride.

 

After riding all the fast rides they went and had lunch. Aine ordered chili cheese fries, while Dustin had lost his appetite from the rides. Aine ate and noticed that Dustin was just staring at her. She held up a fry for him and he smiled. He grabbed her hand and brought it up so he could eat the fry. His tongue flicked over her finger and thumb getting the chili sauce off of her fingers. She blushed and looked around to see lots of people staring at her.

 

“What's wrong?” Dustin asked.

 

“People are staring at us,” she whispered.

 

“They're jealous because we are young and in love,” he smirked.

 

“How can you be so easy going? Those girls are giving me death glares,” she said.

 

“Don't worry about the people around us. The only thing that matters today is you,” he stated. Aine blushed and continued eating. She felt her heart swell when he said those words. He picked her. The one that everyone wants, picked her. She couldn't believe it.

 

She looked up at him and fed him another fry. “These are actually really good,” he smiled.

 

“Well, duh, that's why I got them!” she said stating the obvious. He then stood up and moved to the other side of the table to sit next to her. She looked up at him confused until he lowered his lips on to hers. She smiled against his lips and opened them for him. He instantly entered her mouth, gladly accepting her invitation. Tons of cameras went off around them, but they didn't even notice. They were too lost in each other to care.

 

Dustin backed away and rested his forehead against hers. He smiled at her flushed face and rubbed his nose over hers playfully. Aine giggled and gave him a peck on the lips before noticing all the cameras. The press had gathered along with some regular people with their camera phones.

 

“Excuse us,” Dustin smiled and pulled Aine away from the crowd.

 

“That was so embarrassing,” Aine sighed in relief.

 

“That'll make the front page tomorrow,” he laughed and pulled her closer to his side.

 

“It's getting dark. Hopefully they'll leave soon,” she said.

 

“Let's go on the Ferris Wheel. We'll be able to see the city lights from all the way up there,” he suggested.

 

“I don't know. I'm afraid of heights,” she stated.

 

“You went on every rollercoaster in this place and you say you're afraid of heights?” he asked confused.

 

“Well, I couldn't really tell how high I was because they were fast rides. This one stops at the top and that freaks me out. Besides there is no one there. It must be broken,” she said.

 

“I don't think it's broken,” he said pulling her towards it. They walked up and a big sign said `Reserved' on it.

 

“Look it's reserved! See we can't go on it!” Aine said pointing at the sign.

 

“I'm the one who reserved it, Aine. We'll be able to see the fireworks clearly from up there,” Dustin smiled.

 

“Really? You reserved the Ferris Wheel just for me?” she asked with stars in her eyes.

 

“Yes I did and it would be a huge waste if you didn't go on it with me,” he smiled pulling her to one of the carts. The operator opened the gate to the cart and they sat down.

 

“Have a nice ride Mr. Hill,” the operator smiled and closed the cart. Aine grabbed on to Dustin's arm when they began to move.

 

“Calm down. I won't let anything happen to you,” he promised. Aine nodded, but kept her hold on Dustin's arm. They got to the top and the ride stopped.

 

Aine closed her eyes so she didn't have to look down. She felt Dustin lift up her chin and kiss her lips gently. She opened her eyes to look up at his face. She had no idea how, but at the very moment she knew that she would be waking up to that face every morning for the rest of her life. That thought ran through Dustin's mind at the same time and he smiled.

 

A loud bang was heard and they looked up to see the firework show started. Aine smiled and laced her fingers through his. Dustin squeezed her hand gently and glanced down at her.

 

“This has got to be the most romantic date in history,” she smiled and continued to look at the fireworks.

 

“I'm glad you like it. I tried to get everything just right,” he stated.

 

“It's perfect! Thank you so much!” she said and wrapped her arms around his neck. He wrapped one arm around her waist loving the feeling of her being so close to him. They stayed in that position until the fireworks were over. The ride started to move and they got down to the ground.

 

“Thanks for a perfect night, Dustin,” Aine smiled. They walked down the artificially lit streets, holding hands.

 

“You're worth it,” Dustin stated.

 

“You think so? I never thought that,” she sighed.

 

“I don't care what anyone else says. You're the most beautiful girl I've ever met and I love you,” he said.

 

“I guess I'm kind of still getting used to the fact that you, the famous rock star, actually gives a nerd like me the time of day,” she said.

 

“Well believe it because it's true. I was never into the big, fake, celebrity ladies anyway,” he said.

 

“I know, but it's still a shocker,” she stated.

 

“I always found nerds quite sexy,” he teased. She hit his arm and glared at him.

 

“I'm being serious and all you have to say is some perverted line?” she asked.

 

“Yeah pretty much, but you know you love me,” he smirked.

 

“You're right, I do love you,” she smiled and leaned against him.

 

They walked to Aine's house and stopped at her front door. She turned to him and started jingling her keys.

 

“So now we are going to have the awkward silence of the end of the first date?” Dustin asked.

 

“Well, I was trying to give you a single to kiss me by jingling my keys, but I guess that didn't work,” Aine smiled.

 

“Well, I had a really nice time tonight,” Dustin replied in a girly voice.

 

“Hey that's my line!” Aine laughed.

 

“Why to ruin the moment,” he sighed.

 

“I didn't even know there was a moment, but we can easily get that back,” she smirked and pulled him by the collar into a kiss. Dustin kept it sweet and innocent.

 

“Goodnight,” he whispered.

 

“Goodnight!” she smiled and walked into her house. Dustin made sure she was inside the house before walking off. Aine was really something special. He hoped that this kind of peace would last forever…
