Becca grabbed Ben's hand and squeezed it softly. "Calm down Ben. At least you're not here alone. You have me. And they'll get us down."

Benjamin took a deep breath and returned the squeeze. "Why is this even a ride, I like the fast-paced ones." Benjamin chuckled lightly at the end of it.

"Because there's people - like me - who hate fast rides and prefer slower ones like these."

"This is very unfortunate. But now I know that I will never get on this again."

"Well, I guess we'll just have to wait until it's fixed."

"How can you like this prison. We are in the air, in a cart, going slowly. It's like some horror movie."

"Because I get to see the town from a place that I don't usually," Becca said. Then she quieted down. "And my dad used to take me up as soon as he was able."

"I'm really sorry about your dad." Benjamin said "But I have an extreme fear of heights and it might sound weird with my love for roller coasters, but it's only because you're not up high for long and on Ferris Wheels, I have to deal with that. My fear of heights is so bad that if you made me stand on a regular table I would be scared out of my guts."

Becca giggled. "Remind me to make you stand on a table if you annoy me too much."

"I talk way too much." Ben laughed before continuing. "But it's gonna be hard to get me up on a table so, good luck with that."

Becca was about to answer the another jolt sent her into Ben.

Benjamin lifted Becca off his lap slowly. He too was suddenly thrown forward from the jolt but quickly recovered. "Are you okay?"

Becca tried to hide her blushing. "Yeah, I'm fine."

"I should seriously sue whoever made this torturous vehicle." Benjamin said. He cautiously looked down to see that they were only three carts away from safety. He slowly breathed in and calmed himself down thinking about how much money he would be getting after this, which he doubted very much.

Becca suddenly had a memory of her dad and inched closer to Ben.

Benjamin sees Becca scooting closer to him and welcomes it. "Are you sure that you're okay?"

"I just remembered something."

Benjamin put a comforting arm over Becca. "You wanna talk abo-" Benjamin's statement was unexpectedly cut off by another sudden jolt and the cart was moving again. There was only one last cart to be unloaded before they were back down again. "About it?" He finished his response that was rudely cut off a few seconds ago.

"I…..i don't know."

They were moved down slowly until it was their turn to get off. When they did Benjamin breathed a great sigh of relief. "Let's go on the tilt-a-whirl, maybe that will make you feel better."

"Make you feel better, you mean."

"Maybe, maybe not."

"You go ahead, I'll wait for you."

"Ok then," Benjamin said while hurrying into the short line.

Becca rolled her eyes but smiled.
