(Authors Note: This one is gonna be a bit longer. Like, the whole double-date and everything... everything may = spicy~)

    After watching a couple of movies and eating quite a few snacks, it's about five thirty. I get up and turn his television off. He stands and takes the bowls to the sink and stares at them for a minute, I'm guessing contemplating doing them now or later. He shrugs and walks towards his room, going with the latter, I assume. I get my bag I packed and go into the bathroom across from his room. I pull off my clothes and take the new ones out. I slide it all on, throw on my nice smelling stuff, and do some casual makeup for the night out.

    As I finish putting on some tinted chap-stick, I hear a thump. I hear Joel sigh and I believe stand up. "Are you alright?" "Yeah..." I giggle, imagining him falling over trying to put pants on. I fix the mess on my head and look at the finished product. 'Not bad.' I open the door just as Joel opens his, and I stare at his beauty. He looks me over, and his cheeks tint to the color of my lips. "You look beautiful." I smile and play with his top button. "You look rather charming." He has on some black jeans and a light blue button-down that makes his eyes stand out. I look into his eyes and pull him slightly closer, placing my lips on his. I can feel him smile against them, and he holds the back of my head for a moment, not wanting to let go.

    That is until the doorbell rings. We pull apart, and both our faces are pink, I can feel it. "Well, better not keep them waiting." I let go of his shirt and walk away, brushing my hair behind my ear. I open the door to see Jonas and who I assume to be his lady. "Y/N! Great to see you again." I smile but think that it really was only yesterday morning, which is just crazy. "This is my girlfriend Bianca." The pretty lady smiles and gives me a small wave. "Hi, Y/N. It's nice to meet you. Jonas has talked non-stop about the gal that has finally scooped up 'his main man.'" We both laugh, and Joel comes around the corner. "What's so funny?" I point to Jonas. "Your main man here." Joel looks at Jonas, confused by the name.

    "Have you been giddy the whole time since you left yesterday?" Jonas just looks at his feet while rubbing the back of his neck. Bianca and I laugh, and Joel just shakes his head as he locks the door and we head towards the car. Joel and I hop in his while the other two get back into Jonas's car. Jonas pulls out, and we follow behind. "I'm really glad we're going out." I look over to watch him drive while he speaks. "To the festival? Me too." He glances over but looks back at the road. "That, but also just, us being together. I know we haven't known each other long, but I really am happy to be with you. I am so glad I stopped that night and said something."

    I simper, and I swear I see his eyes sparkle. I place a hand on his knee and peck his cheek. "Joel, I feel the exact same way. I'm glad I went out that night. If I hadn't met you, I honestly would be either working or sitting at home watching YouTube videos. I feel honored to call you mine." He looks over and beams, his eyes looking a bit watery.

    After a moment of being gushy, he turns on the radio, and we sing all the way to the fair, laughing and just having fun. We find a spot to park, and we meet Jonas and Bianca by the entrance. We get wristbands and make our way through the different attractions. Bianca and I watch and poke fun at the boys while they try their hardest at winning us a stuffie. Joel wins me a cute little bear, and Jonas manages to get her a little cat. We all go to a booth where you dress up and take goofy photos. First, we got some of all of us, then couples, then Bianca and I got together, and the boys got theirs too.

    We got a thing of glow-sticks and took silly pictures with those on as well. As we walk, there is a stage where a live band is actually playing. Not a well-known band but a nice local one singing covers. We go and play a bunch of games, a few of them the boys argued over who did better and who's stronger while Bianca and I just laughed at them. We went on roller-coasters, except for Jonas, who was nervous, so he watched. Went through one of those cart rides where it's like a mini tour through another world. Joel took a few pictures and even one where he kissed my cheek. We held hands through the whole thing. We got out, and there was really only one thing left to do: ride the Ferris Wheel. We get to the front of the line, and Jonas gets on with Bianca. The next one rolls around, and Joel hops on with me. We start to rise, and I loop my fingers through his.

    We go up, and we look across the fair. There are so many colorful lights and rides and the sound of people laughing and the band singing. I feel the thing start to slow until we fully stop. I look around and notice that we have stopped at the top. I look to my right, looking at the dark horizon and all the stars that sprinkle across the night sky. I feel my hand be squeezed and look at Joel eyeing me. 'This is it, the perfect night, perfect time, perfect kiss.' His eyes twinkle like they're part of the stars, his cheeks a slight pink. I feel my own start to warm up, and my body begins to lean towards him. He leans toward me as well, and as if right on cue, someone over the hill lets off fireworks.

    His lips crash onto mine, and I feel my heart soar like a shooting star. We scoot a bit closer, pretty much sitting on each other. Fireworks are going off, literally and figuratively. His hand holds the back of my head once again, and I hold his thigh. His other hand finds its way to my lower back, deepening the kiss. After what feels like a wonderful lifetime, we pull apart for air and stare into each other's souls. The ride begins to move once more, and before we know it, we're back at the bottom. As we get up from the seat, Jonas starts clapping like a dork. "You guys are so cute!" Bianca just shakes her head and pulls him away. "Come on, dork. Let's go!" I giggle, and Joel wraps his arm around my waist.

    We all make our way to the cotton candy stand, and once we all get a bag, Jonas immediately starts eating it. Bianca grins as she pulls a piece of his face and pops it into her mouth. Jonas gives her a look that was a mix of 'Did you just eat me candy?' and 'Oh alright, come here.' Joel and I laugh, and as I go to eat a piece of mine, Joel takes a piece of his and shoves it onto my face. I give him a 'Seriously?' look and he just laughs before leaning over and kisses it off my face. I gasp slightly and shove a piece of my candy floss on his face before leaning over myself and kissing it off, adding a bit of tongue to tease him.

    His cheeks turn a light red as he leans forward, passionately kissing me, and I can feel his tongue along my lower lip. I allow him to do whatever he wanted in that moment, and it turned into a pretty heated make-out session. We pull apart and feel a bit awkward that we just made out in front of quite a few people. After Jonas and Bianca came back, we all headed towards the gate and said our farewells. We got in the car and decided to have one last show before we got home, singing our lungs out.

    Once we got back to his place, I put the clothes he gave me last night back on and got into bed. He removed his glasses and shirt, crawling into bed next to me. He rolls over on top of me and kisses me once more. "Would you like to finish what happened on that bench?" I bite my lip and nod before he hungrily starts back at my lips, his hands already finding their way to the hem of my shirt. He pulls it over my head before helping remove my pants, and I remove his. This song and dance is still new to us, but together, it feels so right and so perfect.

Undergarments have found a spot on the floor, and Joel finds his spot. This time, things are a bit faster, more passionate, and exciting. One of his hands holds my arms above my head, while the other digs into my hip, holding me in place for him. He bends down to place his lips into the crook of my neck, leaving kisses and his breath along my skin. Before long, we both are close, and he makes sure to remove it before anything happens this early. I help him just like the other night, but he goes in my mouth, and after he finishes on me, he helps me in return, this time using his tongue instead of his fingers.

    We clean up and lay there breathless once again. We don't bother to put anything on this time. We just kiss each other one last time before breathlessly telling one another goodnight. "Goodnight, Y/n. I... I can't tell you how happy I am that you're in my life." I feel my eyes drifting down, and I yawn, pecking him once more. "Goodnight Joel. Thank you for all that you've done for me so far. I truly care about you." As I feel myself drifting, I could have been hearing things, but it sounds as though he whispers something into my ear as I fall asleep.

~Joel's POV~

    "Goodnight Joel. Thank you for all that you've done for me so far. I truly care about you." I watch as her eyes fully close and can't help but lean in and whisper into her ear as she drifts off. "I love you, Y/n..."

Wow!! First off, long chapter, I know. Second, Joel's POV and a secret thought from him?! Crazy!!! Also, I felt as though I was repeating smile so I searched synonyms, and apparently, simper is a different way to say smile. Also, the cotton candy thing I also searched and it said original cotton candy is vegan, so let's just pretend the fair floss is vegan for story sake.
