The Silent Alpha
Chapter 27: Date 2

"Now it's just you and me," I smile at Zane, the wolf staring at me with anxious eyes.
"Relax," I chuckle.
"I don’t bite."
The nervous look never leaves his eyes as I drag him back to the park.
During the first part of our date with Kota, I watched Zane carefully, noticing how excited he got over such simple things like Dippin Dots or the disco music that was playing during the rides.
It’s obvious this is his first time seeing an amusement park before, leaving me to wonder what else he had yet to experience.I take him to the nearest roller coaster, explaining to him the thrill of dropping and rising ona train.
He doesn’t seem convinced by my explanation, but he nonetheless humors me and gets on the train.
There’s a slight hint of fear in Zane’s eyes as the ride operator locks us into our seats, the automated announcements telling us to keep our arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times.I reach out to hold Zane’s hand and comfort him, interlocking our fingers to let him know we were going to be okay.
The train shoots out of the station, Zane’s eyes widening as we rush down a track, making a sudden sharp turn and climbing up the first hill.
"Hold on tight!" I squeal, growing excited for the drop.
The anticipation grows as the entire park shrinks before our eyes, the sun setting off in the horizon.
The pretty view distracts Zane temporarily before we reach the apex and look down at the drop.
"Oh f**k,"
Someone behind us shouts before we race down the hill, a camera flashing as we zoom past it territied and amused by the sharp turns and sudden drops.
A huge grin is plastered on his face when we get off and I can tell he wants to ride again.
We make our way to the photo booth at the end of the ride, and I laugh my butt off when I see our picture.
I’m smiling like a lunatic with my arms raised in the air while Zane has a look of absolute terror, his eyes and mouth wide open in fright.
"I'm buying it," I giggle, Zane’s ears turning red in embarrassment.
"And I’m going to frame it." He shakes his head in horror, as if willing me not to buy it but I give him a stern look.
"This is a picture of your very first roller coaster," I sigh.
"And I want to remember being the one who shared that moment with you."
His entire face turns redder than a tomato, the edges of his lips slightly curving up in a little smile.
Satisfied that I can now keep the picture, I hand the money to the clerk and receive two copies of our photo.
"Hehe, now I get to remember the look on your face forever," I tease him, shoving the pictures in my purse before he can take them from me.
We go on a few more roller coasters, Zane nervous about each one but coming out of each ride with a contagious smile on his lips.I spot a cotton candy stand and buy two big clouds of cotton for each of us, Zane staring at the large pink cloud with a puzzled look on his face.
"Open your mouth," I laugh, tearing off a piece of his cotton.
Zane hesitantly follows my orders, slowly hanging his mouth open.
"Now, stick your tongue out."
He once again does as he’s told and I place the little cotton fluff on his tongue, his eyes lighting up like a child at Christmas as the candy melts in his mouth, leaving the sugar taste in its wake lutty from my candy.
He holds it out to me and I raise an eyebrow at him.
"You want to feed me?" l ask.
He turns bright red again and lowers his gaze in shame, guilt quickly filling my mind.
Jeez, Talia, why are you such a b***h? I scold myself, opening my mouth and leaning in close to him.
His hand shakes a little as he deposits the little fluff in my mouth, the sugar spreading across my tastebuds.He smiles nervously so I offer hima smile in return and wiggle my eyebrows to ease the awkward tension between us.
"We should try the Ferris wheel," I suggest, pulling him towards the giant wheel at the end of the park.
A young operator greets us and lets us into the little cage, Zane gripping onto the sides when it begins to rock upon our ascension.
"Relax, wolf," I chuckle.
"It's supposed to rock a little.Just sit back and enjoy the view."
Almost as if on cue, we reach the top of the Ferris wheel overlooking the entire park, his breath hitching when he sees the incredible view.
"It’s pretty, isn’t it?"
