do no harm

The male smiled wrapping his arm around her shoulders when she scooted closer to him even though there was not much room left between them. He rested his chin ontop of her head looking out into the scenery as the bright lights shined through. Aaron smiled to him this all felt like he was living in a rom com where he had to win over the girl. Looking down at her he couldn’t help but to smile wider, this was the one person who knew the real him and not the toxic one who’s mind only cared about making profits over illegal things. “I swear this feels like we’re in The Notebook, but don’t think I would get off this thing and swing off of the railings now. Don’t think I have an inner Ryan Gosling inside of  me like at all.” He chuckled holding her close. 

“Cue the rom com background music.” He joked taking her hand into his own intertwining his fingers around hers as he took a seat next to her. The person who was working at the wheel strapped them in and Aaron looked over at Evelyn admiring her quietly he could feel a stupid grin form on his face that’s just how happy she made him. If it wasn’t for her he would be back to his old ways going out to parties and getting extremely high, being cold to everyone in his sight. Seconds later the wheel began to move and the younger Keller looked out into the distance.

“Let’s do it then.” He smiled leading her to the way to the Ferris wheel this was the moment of truth. Aaron wasn’t going to lie to himself he was rather nervous to do this only cause he’s never been this way with a girl ever so all of this was new to him. Once approached to the front of the line the person who was working at the attraction allowed him to take a spot on the wheel. “After you miss.” He said moving out of the way so that Evelyn could take a seat first.

Aaron took the stuffed dolphin from the person who was in charge of the game nodding his head at them as a sign of a thank you. He turned around and walked over to Evelyn giving her the stuffed toy smiling slightly. “For you, princess, I wasn’t expecting to knock them down knowing that somehow this game was rigged.” Aaron laughed then wrapped his arm over her shoulders then pointed up at the ferris wheel. “You ready for this?” He pointed up at the wheel holding her close.

“Alright I mean I never played baseball was more of a basketball kid so I’ll try to win you something even if it’s a piece of candy.” Aaron chuckled walking up to the stand hand in hand with her. He raised up his hand waiting for the person who was in charge to come over to explain the game to him. Once they did Aaron placed down the three dollars it was to play with three balls. He thanked the person in charge and picked up one ball scooting back a bit as he eyed the milk bottles. “There’s always a scam with these things but if you attempt to try to figure how to knock them all down you’ll be shocked.” He said smiling at her before throwing a curve ball at the bottles making all three of them fall. “Huh guess I’m not that shitty after all.”

“I could be that date to tries to win the cute girl a prize let’s see if I still have that in me.” Aaron laughed leading her the way to the games were. “Ladies choice in choosing what game she would like to see my fail at.” He looked at her smiling slightly.

He smiled lacing his fingers with her as he led the way inside the carnival, usually these things weren’t his scene the old him would had taken her some where much more dark and drug infused. But ever since what happened to him he knew he needed to change for the better, and somehow Evelyn woke that up in him. After giving the tickets to the person who was at the front entrance the male looked around seeing what they could do first, all of this was new to him usually if he was in his old ways he would look for a place that was less crowded. “So what first?” He asked still holding her hand as he led the way.
