Chapter66

"You're a case!" "I know." She smiled with red cheeks. "Alright handsome, where are you taking me now?" "How about we go to an amusement park?" "Oooh, I love amusement parks! Yes! I haven't been to any in ages." "Okay then sweety, to the amusement park, we go." Heather's POV: That night, we arrived the park. Always so beautiful and lighted. We were gonna have a great time.  "So? What should we start with?" Ace asked me. "The wheel!" "Okay," he chuckled. We went and lined up for a ride on the wheel. Soon, we got in and fastened our seatbelts. I was so excited. The wheel began to move and I gripped Ace's arm. He chuckled of course. It was a great experience. After the wheel, we went to the rollercoaster. That was the scariest. As we went up and down, I screamed, especially when we were high up. I would scream and grab Ace with all my might and he would laugh at me. After all the fun games, he bought some cotton candy which we ate while strolling. As we discussed, he noticed a photo cabin. "Hey, want to take pictures?" he asked. "Under one condition, I keep all the photos." "That's unfair but okay, princess. Anything you want." He held my hand and we got in. We sat down and he put a coin in. We took a lot of pictures. Nice ones, Funny ones, and even adorable ones. For the last snap, I asked him to take his T-shirt off. "Seriously?" "Yeah. Take it off! That's for taking a picture of me, earlier. So take it off and we'll be equal," I giggled. I felt so free and happy that night "As you wish," he chuckled and took it off. Ace was a hottie. I giggled and to his surprise, before the machine clicked another picture, I got up and sat on his thigh, my arms around his neck "Smile for the camera!" I yelled happily. We both did and the last pic was clicked. * "That was awesome," I said happily when we got out of the cabin. I took the pictures. "Yeah. You seem really happy and that makes me happy." I smiled "I'm having so much fun, Ace. Thanks." He smiled sweetly at me It was quite late and we were preparing to leave when suddenly, we walked past a stand and the owner of it stopped us. "Hey you, my boy!" he said to Ace. "Yes, sir?" "You can't leave without getting a lil something for your princess!" Ace turned to me with a smile and I blushed. "Come and shoot as many bottles as you can to try and win the huge teddy bear for her!" Ace went over to the stand and paid the man. He was given the plastic gun. It was a hard game because the bottles were far. But to my surprise, I watched Ace shoot five bottles without missing any! The man too was surprised. "Wow!" he exclaimed, handing over the big teddy bear to Ace who then gave it to me. "Thank you so much." "You're a lucky girl. You have a good boyfriend," the man said. Ace and I laughed a little nervously. "He's- he's not my boyfriend." "Oh really? Too bad. Both of you make a cute couple." We laughed. "Thanks you." We soon left the park and Ace dropped me in front of my building. "I had fun. Thank you very much." "No prob." "Goodnight, Ace." "Goodnight, Heather." I hugged him and left the car. * I reached my apartment with a big smile "Ayyee. Seems you had a lot of fun," Shirley said. I collapsed on the couch. "Oh yes, Shirley. I did! I'm falling!" "Falling?!" I looked at her and laughed. Heather's POV: "I'm just kidding, Shirley!" I laughed at her. "Hum!" "But he's a real darling," I looked at the pictures we took. Shirley looked at them too. "He's a hottie, too. Wow. Seems like y'all really had a good time. Oh gosh, look at your smile! I feel jealous!" she pouted and I giggled. "You look forward to hanging out with him again?" "I don't know yet. But we'll surely hang out again." "I know right." * Ace's POV: "The smile on your face is priceless, dude!" Keith told me that night. "I know. We really had a good time." "You really love Heather, huh?" "I've always had! The more I spend time with her the more she drives me crazy!" I said, running my fingers through my hair, "Just look at this picture." I showed him the picture I'd clicked of her. "Boy, she's hot." "I know. And plus this, she has a great personality. I might not resist for long." Keith smirked. "She's got you trapped," he mused. "Completely trapped. I need her love and I'll get it. For the moment, she doesn't want any relationship. That might make things a little hard for me." He put a hand on my shoulder. "Hard? It won't be for you. You are Sheridan, pal." "But she isn't supposed to know that until I'm done with my revenge." "She doesn't need to know. She will find herself automatically falling for you, bro. Y'all are meant for each other. You just have to use the right approaches." I looked at him. "You're right." "Voilà." *** Heather's POV: On Monday, I reached the office on time. I headed for the elevator and waited. When it got open, there were a lot of people inside. It was a little congested. I noticed a distracted Ace at the back, manipulating his phone. I got in and went to stand in front of him. Ace's POV: Someone stood in front of me and I recognised the sweet perfume. Heather. I looked at her, though she had her back to me. I leaned in and whispered in her ear, so the other employees wouldn't try to listen. I did that discreetly. "Good morning, baby girl."
