Coffee Cutie

It’s finally Friday and Ashlyn and Kelley are both excited for their double date. Ashlyn made sure she planned it in a way where she could spend time with Kelley and her date, but also spend some alone time with Ali. Ashlyn had made a plan to meet Kelley and her date at the pier, that way she could start the date with a little alone time before continuing on with Kelley.

7:00pm rolls around and Ashlyn is at Ali’s house. Ashlyn knocks on Ali’s door, takes a step back and patiently waits for Ali to open the door. When Ali opens the door, Ashlyn gives her a soft kiss on her cheek and pulls out the bouquet of red roses from behind her back. Ali takes the roses from her hand and the two go inside to put the flowers in a vase. Ali places the flowers in the center of her kitchen island, and the two of them head out the door.

The entire car ride to the pier consisted of Ali asking questions about their date and Ashlyn doing her best to avoid answering them. Ashlyn knew that she couldn’t keep the secret for long, but she made sure she did her best to keep as much of the date a surprise as she could. After a few minutes of driving, Ali started to piece together where they were going. Once she started to figure it out, she stopped asking questions. She knew that the date was going to be cute, and decided that she wanted it to be a surprise.

The two of them finally park at the pier and head into the carnival. Ashlyn pays for the tickets in, and they head straight for the Ferris wheel. Ashlyn knows how much Ali loves Ferris wheels, and knew that would be the perfect location to start their date. Ashlyn hated the idea of going on the Ferris wheel, but sucked it up; because she knew that it would be picture perfect for watching the sunset over the pier.

There was no wait for getting onto the Ferris wheel. The two got right on, and sat across from each other. Ali could tell that Ashlyn was nervous, so she reached over and grabbed her hand. Ashlyn smiled and squeezed her hand. Ali knew how much Ashlyn hated the Ferris wheel, and wanted her to know how much she appreciated it, “Thank you for taking me here. This is stunning.”

“Anything for you.” Ashlyn said while leaning forward to kiss Ali. As Ashlyn started leaning forward, she could feel the seat rock, causing her to panic and lean back in her seat before she had the chance to kiss Ali.

Ali just looked at Ashlyn and couldn’t help but giggle. She gave Ashlyn a look that told her everything was going to be okay and they could save their kiss until they were on solid ground.

The Ferris wheel kept on moving until the two of them reached the top, when they promptly stopped. Ashlyn started to freak out a little bit, until she realized that the stop was all part of the ride. There weren’t enough other people on the ride to make the ride stop much before they had reached the top. As the two of them were stopped at the top, Ashlyn could help but be proud of herself. She was sitting across from one of the most beautiful girls she had ever met, looking at the most incredible sunset she had ever witnessed. She couldn’t help but think about how romantic and memorable this moment was going to be. A huge smile came across her face, and Ali couldn’t help but to notice and smile too.

The rest of the ride down went smoothly. Ashlyn didn’t have any major freak outs and Ali got to enjoy one of her favorite classic carnival rides. After they got off of the ride, the two of them headed over to the carnival entrance. It was a little before 7:30, and they should be seeing Kelley and her date at any minute.

Without even noticing Kelley and her date snuck up on Ashlyn and Ali. The two of them jumped when they heard Kelley’s voice, “I can’t believe that you talked me into this double date…”

“Yeah, you seemed so upset…” Ashlyn jokes as she notices Kelley’s arm wrapped around Hopes shoulders.

Hope has Kelley’s hand in her hand as she starts running towards the games with a huge smile on her face. Ashlyn and Ali do their best to stay close behind, but they are enjoying their alone time all while watching Kelley and Hope interact.

“I absolutely love the sports games!” Hope says as she points to the soccer game.

“Let’s go play, maybe I can win you something!” Kelley says with a smile.

Kelley walks towards the soccer game. She hands over a dollar and receives the soccer ball. The rule of the game was simple. One dollar was one shot, five dollars was three shots. The object of the game was to shot the ball into one of the five openings in the net. There was an opening on all four corners and one between the goal keeps legs. Kelley looked at goal, and had a target set in her mind. She was going to aim for the bottom center opening, simple, but she was wrong.

Kelley placed the ball down in the near center. She took a few steps backwards; made sure she had lined up her and then shot the ball. It was a soft shot, but it was enough to reach the net. It missed the center opening by a few inches.

“Ahh, so close!”

Kelley decided that she was going to try again. This time instead of giving the women a dollar she gave her five. This way she had three chances instead of one chance to win Hope a stuffed bear, and if she scores two or more, she gets a giant stuffed bear.
Kelley gets the first ball. Lines it up, backs up and takes her shot. It goes straight to into the bottom right corner. “YES!” Kelley says with a big smile!

The game woman tells Kelley, “You now have the option, you can take the small bear, or you can shot again and try to win the large bear!”

Kelley decides that she is going to test her luck and try for the larger bear. She gets the second ball and lines it up. She shoots, and the ball flies straight forward and hits the goalie in the stomach. She knows she has one more chance to win a large bear, or lose it all. Kelley takes her third and final ball, places it in the center and steps back. She shoots the ball, aiming for the hole between the goal keeper’s legs.

“Please go in, please go in…” Kelley kept thinking to herself.

Kelley watched as the ball curved slightly to the left, looking like she was going to miss her target all together. The ball continued to curve to the left, but it curved just enough that it curved right into the hole on the bottom left.

“Here is your prize,” The woman said as she handed Kelley a large brown stuffed bear.

Kelley walks over to Hope with the giant stuffed bear behind her back. Hope just started to laugh as she sees Kelley trying to hide the bear behind her.

“Hey there pretty lady,” Kelley said to Hope with a large smile on her face.

“Hey there,”

“I won you something,” Kelley pulled out the giant bear from behind her back and handed it to Hope.

“Thank you!” Hope said as she leaned in to give Kelley a soft kiss. The soft kiss quickly turned into a more passionate kiss that was broken up every time that Hope smiled.

Ashlyn and Ali couldn’t help but laugh when the noticed Hope smiling randomly. They thought it was one of the cutest things that could be happening on their second date. The two of them decided that they were going to show them up.

Ashlyn walked over towards the baseball game, and buys a single pitch. Ashlyn knew this game very well. The object of the game was to guess how fast her pitch was, if she got the pitch within 5 miles she won a small stuffed animal, and if she guessed the pitch correctly, she won a large stuffed animal. Ashlyn got her baseball, and said the first number that came into her head, “62”. Ashlyn wound up her pitch and tossed the ball with all her might.

“62 miles per hour” the woman said.

“Hey, babe, come here and pick out any stuffed animal that you want.” Ashlyn said motioning for Ali to come over.

Ali came running over to Ashlyn and pointed to giant stuffed dinosaur. “Thanks babe!” Ali said with a wink and a kiss on the cheek.

Hope and Kelley didn’t even notice Ashlyn and Ali winning a large dinosaur, they were too caught up in each other to even care what was going on around them. Once Kelley and Hope snapped out of their little love fest, they walked over towards Ashlyn and Ali.

“Hey guys, do you want to head towards the giant rollercoasters?”

“Sure” Ashlyn and Ali said in unison.
