But I'm a big boy now! (open)

[ELI]

"Awesome," Eli responded, snickering and jumping off the carriage and helping her down. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders, leading her into the theme park. "I hope the horseys find their way back alright."

[Trixie]

"Aw, I'm sure somebody'll find 'em." She snuggled against him. "I want the pink cotton candy."

[ELI]

"Thatta girl," Eli responded, heading over to the vender and getting her a pink cotton candy. "That costs about as much as a beer or two woulda, and trust me, its way yummier. We are now even." He smirked at her, proud of himself, and handed her the cotton candy.

[Trixie]

She took it, smiling. She pinched a bit off, sticking it in her mouth. "Mm, it is pretty yummy. But gettin' drunk with me's kinda fun, too."

[ELI]

Eli watched her fingers, smiling to himself. He didn't doubt that. "You gonna share, Sunshine?"

[Trixie]

She smirked. "Maybe." She took a larger piece, putting half of it in her mouth, then she leaned forward, clearly indicating she should take the rest that was sticking out.

[ELI]

Eli rolled his eyes. "Women." He leaned forward anyway, taking the rest in his mouth, barely brushing his lips over hers before pulling away. "Like I said. You rule the world." He glanced around the theme park, excited.

"Where to begin? You ever been here before?"

[Trixie]

She laughed, munching on another piece of cotton candy. "Once or twice. Think ya mentioned somethin' about a Ferris wheel, didn't ya?"

[ELI]

"Well obviously, but shouldn't we save the best for last?" He scoffed at her playfully. "I really hope you learn to have fun right by the end of this mini adventure."

[Trixie]

"Well, then I guess ya oughta teach me, huh?" She moved to hold his hand, holding her cotton candy with the other, getting sugar around her mouth.

[ELI]

"Uh huh," Eli replied, nodding. "One thing you should learn is how to screw people so you can have fun for free. Free means fun. Got that?" He led her over to a nearby dart game.

"One cent a dart. You hit a bulls eye, you get a prize." The man behind the counter explained. Eli dropped Trixie's hand and leaned over the counter.

"I heard these things were faulty and designed for you to lose," Eli told the guy, acting concerned.

"No way, it is legit," the man responded, obviously annoyed. Eli shrugged. "Prove it." The man through a dart and missed the board completely.

"See Trix!" El laughed, pointing at the dart. "All LIES."

The dart guy grumbled and shoved a dart in Eli's hand. "It's not, I'm just a terrible shooter. You try."

Eli shrugged. "Fine." He threw a dart, hitting a perfect bulls-eye. "Yellow bunny or the purple teddy bear?" He asked Trixie.

"Now wait a sec-!" The dart man began. Eli interrupted him. "Shush. Let the lady decide. Go on, hon. Tell the nice man what you'd like."

[Trixie]

"Purple teddy bear!" She clapped in glee as the man grumbled taking it down and handing it over to her, looking annoyed. "Aw, thanks sweet cheeks!" She leaned over, kissing Eli's cheek.

[ELI]

Eli laughed, walking away. "I know, I know, I'm impressive. Watch out, I'm a serial manipulator." He chuckled, obviously way too proud of himself.

[Trixie]

She pinched his arm before hugging her new bear to her, finishing off her cotton candy and tossing the paper cone away in a trash can. "Better not be manipulatin' me."

[ELI]

"With buggy rides, cotton candy and teddy bears? Nawww....." Eli grinned at her, playful as ever.
