She smiled as she started to skip a little bit and she looked over at Marcus "what exactly is that thing supposed to do?"

(It’s ok. I think it happens sometimes.)

“It's just a big wheel, really.” he shrugged, smiling at her. “You sit down in a kind of carriage/basket and it just takes you in a big circle. But it goes at a nice slow relaxing pace.” he added.

"Oh, " she spoke softly seeming relieved to hear that "I think that is exactly what I need.."

“Good.” he nodded, acknowledging her reaction. “And the height doesn't bother you?” he asked just to be sure.

"I don't think it should I just wasn't a fan of that roller coaster I guess even though I like to go fast" she smiled a little bit and leaned her head against his arm as they walked

“That's fine.” he assured, blushing a little when she leaned against him. But he didn't really mind and did nothing to dissuade her. “Roller coasters aren't for everyone.”

"But I love to go fast I don't see the issue with it ya know?? It would make since if I liked them."

Marcus gave a thoughtful hum and shrugged the shoulder she wasn't laying on. “Maybe it's something to do with the fact that you're not in control of the ride?” he suggested. “When you go fast, it's your decision. But the roller coaster… You're just there for the ride.”

"Yeah I guess so I kind of want to try it again at some point while I'm in America because I didn't exactly hate it just wasn't expecting it." She said laughing a little

“Alright.” he smiled. “We can definitely try it again sometime.” he agreed.

"That'd be amazing thank you"

“It's no problem. Personally, I love roller coasters, so I don't mind taking another ride.” he laughed softly.

"Hm well maybe ill grow to love them too." She said and smiled a little

“Maybe.” he nodded, smiling back a little hopeful. But he knew it was ok if she ended up not liking them. It wasn't really a big deal, just a personal preference.

Some smiled and started skipping along the way to the ride

Marcus laughed a little at Maria’s cute antics and kept pace with her, though he didn't skip.

She laughed with him as they finally made it to the line they were next to it didn't seem like there were many people there which was good for them

Marc smiled softly as they waited for their turn, wondering what else they could talk about.

Maria was looking around a little smile on her face as she did "oh hey the Suns starting to set I bet it'll look really pretty up there don't you think?"

“Really? We’ve been here that long?” he asked, glancing at the sky. “That's surprising. But yeah, the best view of the sunset, especially on the ocean, is at the top of the Ferris wheel.” he nodded, smiling back at her.

(Sorry if I messed that up lol I only remembered they got there in like the late afternoon)

"Well we did get here kinda late in the day.."

(no. You're fine. I was just going with the whole “been having such a good time that he lost track of time” thing.)

“I guess so.” he nodded. “I wonder if they’ll have fireworks once the sun is down.”

(Oh right XD)

"They usually do that here? "

(it's ok)

“Sometimes.” he smiled. “Especially when the weather is right.”

"That sounds exciting, hopefully they will. " she smiled up at him as she spoke clearly getting her hopes up
