This is a small AU in which, after the performance of the guys in the circus, the amusement park remains for another week, giving them the opportunity to hang out there for some more time. I've been wanting to finish this chapter for a long time, but I didn't have any ideas, but yesterday inspiration came to me, and I almost finished this wonderful gentle chapter in one fell swoop. Enjoy reading!

_____________________________________________

The company strolled through the amusement park, which had arrived with the circus, talking cheerfully. Emma and Ethan walked hand in hand, and Mia and River constantly teased them, which made the couple blush, but stoically withstood all the jokes. Kenny was in his wheelchair, which Stephanie was carefully pushing, and from his obviously amorous smile, everyone understood that he was head over heels in love. Actually, like the blonde herself, who had been telling him something enthusiastically all this time.

Andrea was chatting rapidly on the phone about something, and no one could understand who she was talking to and what she was saying. JD lingered, most likely trying to choose the most inconspicuous clothes, and it was probably Andrea who scolded him, because it was clear from her face that the dialogue was clearly not calm. Olivia and Julian listened attentively to what Stephanie was saying, periodically inserting their technical corrections. River and Mia walked on opposite sides of Emma and Ethan and constantly joked about them, almost choking with laughter after each joke.

Finally, they got tired of embarrassing the couple, and Mia dived in front of them, running over to her friend's side. His hand was on her waist, and he leaned toward her, about to say something. Ethan and Emma looked at this brazen possessive gesture with very shocked faces, but said nothing, looking at each other in bewilderment. River grinned, whispering something in her friend's ear, and the girl looked at him skeptically, breaking into a sly smile. She stood on tiptoe, snapping her teeth near the brown-haired man's ear, and quickly jumped away from him, running away. The guy looked slightly stunned after her, and then followed her with a determined expression on his face.

The redhead turned around for a second, sticking her tongue out at River, who was chasing her, and laughed as she ran ahead. He chuckled as he followed her. Everyone else walking behind just laughed at their obvious flirtation.

They ran forward, hiding among the people, and the group lost sight of them. As soon as they left their friends behind, Mia stopped, and River, who was not expecting a sudden braking, crashed into her, knocking her off her feet. She screamed, falling forward, and the only thing that saved her from meeting the ground was the hands of the brown-haired man who managed to react. He wrapped his arms around her back and waist, holding her in the air. The girl looked at him with wide-open eyes, and he smiled awkwardly.

- I'm sorry, - he helped her up, - I didn't expect you to stop.

- Well, - she got up with his help, regaining her balance, - at least you caught me.

He smiled, and the redhead smiled back, holding his palm, and the guy's hand was still on her waist.

When they realized that they had been standing there for too long, they awkwardly let go of each other, looking at each other a little embarrassed.

- Well, where are we going? - River smiled, holding out his palm to her, - Just no roller coasters, Mia!

The girl immediately crossed her arms resentfully on her chest, pouting, and the brown-haired man moaned in resignation, looking at her.

- Okay, okay, okay, you got it, - he covered his face with his hand, running his palm over it, - let's go on a roller coaster.

Mia squealed joyfully, grabbing his hand, and with a joyful laugh dragged him towards the attraction, which the guy was terribly afraid of. While they were standing in line, River tried to escape carefully a couple of times, but in the end Mia took his arm, and he resigned himself to defeat, exhaling in resignation.

- It seems to me that I'm going to be sick from the very thought of climbing into this infernal train, - the brown-haired man looked pleadingly into the girl's eyes, - Can I wait for you downstairs?

Mia shook her head.

- Well, I can't go alone, can I? - she smiled, pointing to the queue of guys behind them, - Look, you don't want any of them to sit with me, do you?

She pointed to a group of guys who were brazenly looking at Mia, talking about something. River turned around, immediately noticing how one of them was brazenly winking at HIS girl friend. The brown-haired man's eyes immediately narrowed with indignation. Mia rolled her eyes in annoyance, turning away from the failed pickup truck, and looked back at River, who also looked at her.
The guy sighed, lowering his eyes.

- I don't want to, but ...

- Believe me, I know that you are afraid of this attraction, - she took his other hand in hers when they passed the control to wait for the trolley, - and I want to help you overcome this fear. Just like you helped me with the stage.

He looked at her, feeling ashamed that she was so busy with him. The redhead smiled affectionately.

- Maybe this will help you calm down?

She stands on her toes, gently kissing him on the cheek, and River's eyes close, and his lips stretch in a stupid loving smile.

- Yes... - he looks completely melted, - definitely helps.

Mia laughs, pulling him onto the ride, and the guy blindly obeys, sitting next to her.

***

- My God! - River slid off the seat, swaying due to dizziness, and almost tripped over his own feet, if not for his girlfriend holding his arm, - I'm going to be sick...

They get off the ride and sit on the bench. The girl hugs him by the belt, while the brown-haired man covers his face with his hand, exhaling.

- Maybe it was a bad idea, - Mia whispers softly, hugging her friend by the belt, - with all this... I shouldn't have dragged you here...

- I want something calm, - he mutters, feeling gentle hands on his body, "like water and a Ferris wheel.

The redhead agrees, smiling a little guiltily, and they get up from the bench, heading for the food stalls. The guy gets better, they collect ice cream, water and go to the attraction visible nearby.

They pay for the ticket, wait for their turn and sit in the booth. Mia holds an ice cream in her hand, leaning on the railing, and watches as they slowly climb higher. She grins at her thoughts and turns to the guy. He sits relaxed on a soft bench and chews his ice cream, watching her. He sighs, then grins.

- You're such a manipulator, you know?

Mia raises her eyebrows in mock surprise, and then innocently flaps her eyes.

- What are you talking about? - she looks so determined that the guy can't wait to change her smirk to an embarrassed blush, - I have no idea what you're talking about...

He gets up from his seat and walks towards her. Mia looks at him slyly, and the brown-haired man leans his forearms on the edge of the booth like her. He grins at her, and the girl smiles back so happily that River almost loses the ability to breathe.

- How can I refuse you? - he says it more for himself, and after these words Mia clings to him, laying her head on his shoulder, - Because your eyes hypnotize me...

They are friends, but Mia knows that there is clearly something more between them. The guy rests his cheek on the top of her head, and then the ice cream, which he had been holding in his hands outside the booth all this time, slips out of his relaxed palms. He reacts quickly and tries to catch it, but the brazen delicacy does not want to be eaten and flies down rapidly.

- Damn it...

The couple stares after him for a few seconds, and then River slaps his forehead with the palm of his hand to Mia's cheerful laughter.

- Wow, that's a failure, - the redhead openly laughs, and the brown-haired man looks at her skeptically, raising one eyebrow, which makes the girl laugh even harder, and then defiantly bites off her ice cream, - How good that my yummy is still with me. Very tasty... Do you want to try it?

She giggles and openly teases him, holding out a treat to his nose, and when he is about to take a bite, she briskly takes her hand to herself.

- Oh, I remembered that you have a giant bite, - Mia teases and shows him her tongue, - so if I give you a bite, you'll eat everything...

River can't stand it and smiles.

- Well, I'll be able to try anyway.

He pulls her to him by the waist, and Mia gasps when he approaches her lips. She looks at him, looking into his eyes and feeling his breath on her skin. His palm gently grabs her wrist, and River brings it to her mouth, cheekily biting ice cream. The girl looks at him dumbfounded, and he laughs.

- What? - the brown-haired man still holds her by the waist, pressing her to his body, and they practically touch their noses, - Were you thinking about something else?

- Let's say, - she is still very shocked, but she really likes the position they are in, and she grins, wrapping her free arm around his neck, - I did not expect such impudence...

Mia glimpses that they are almost at the top, and smiles, looking into his eyes. The guy approaches her again, and their lips are almost touching.

- There is another incredible impudence, - he whispered, and Mia was not going to lie, he was so hot that her legs almost gave way, - can I get permission to perform it?

- Oh, you have the privilege to perform all kinds of impudence, - she feels his desire, feeling exactly the same, - Go for it...

She laughs, and the brown-haired man comes close, gently kissing her lips as they climb to the very top of the Ferris wheel. Mia wraps her other arm around his neck, and his free palm slides down her back, wrapping around her waist. Her lips are so sweet from ice cream, and River wants this moment to be etched in his memory for the rest of his life.

It was the first kiss for both of them, and they were happy that it was them for each other. They pull away after a while, still close to each other, and the guy strokes her lower back.

- Really delicious ice cream, - he kisses her lightly on the lips, gently smearing them with his tongue, and the redhead mumbles with tenderness, answering with pleasure, - I liked yours more.

Mia groans in pleasure, feeling how much tenderness River gives her, and the sweet bliss that has spread over her body makes her snuggle even closer and almost drop the ice cream, which lightly touches the guy's neck, burning his skin with cold. The brown-haired man screams in surprise and shudders, and Mia laughingly apologizes, kissing him again.

When she pulls away, River's eyes are closed and a loving smile is stretched on his lips. Mia laughs, blushing charmingly, and strokes his neck, wiping the ice cream trail from it.

- What do you think about, - she smiles, deftly fishing his phone out of the pocket of his shorts, and the guy laughs in amazement, - to take a couple of photos while we're on top?

- Princess, you know it's not good to steal, right? - he grins, taking his phone from her, and the redhead amusingly teases him, sticking out her tongue, - I'm always for capturing a wonderful moment.

He opens the camera app, and as soon as he presses the timer button, Mia calls him, and when he turns his head, she gently kisses him on the lips. At the same moment, they hear the camera click out of the corner of their ear, but a new kiss draws them in, and River puts the phone in her pocket, now completely carried away by her lover's lips.

It feels like a fairy tale, but other people's lips do not let them forget that this is happening in reality.
