Breaking The Bad Boy

Nine

"Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love was beyond my control."

Elizabeth's POV

We held hands as we walk into the carnival. The place was already filled with thousands of people and the sun slowly sank into the night.

"Let's go do some couple stuff. " Francisco suggest as he looks at me and smiles in a charming way. He releases my hand and wraps it around my waist. In a way, it felt like he was 'claiming ' me.

"Sure." I return the smile to him.

We walk up to a cotton candy store and he pays for a blue cotton candy. The seller pours sugar into the machine and collects the sweet sugary clouds as it spins around and around.

He holds the cotton candy and takes a bite out of it and proceeds to feed me some.

"Oh let's go sit on the Ferris wheel Francisco." I grab his hand and pulls him to the ferries wheel. The queue was short but it started to grow, I quickly took a spot in the line with Francisco.

The ferries wheel in the carnival was bigger and taller than most of the ferries wheels I have ever seen in my life. The lights that decorated it glowed brightly in the dark night, making this ride that most attracting one here.

"Do....do we have to ride this?" Francisco asks me while taking another bite out of his cotton candy.

"Of course we have to. I love the ferries wheel. Especially when you reach the top." I tell him. I could see Francisco visibly swallows a large lump forming in his throat. It's probably just a large bite from the cotton candy.

Francisco's face turns a shade paler every meter we went up into the sky. " Are you okay? Francisco? Was it the cotton candy? But I seem fine." I ask him, worry in my voice.

He looks down and keeps quiet. Don't daring to look out the window.

He made the atmosphere awkward for the both of us , making the tension heavy.

Once we reach the top of the ferries wheel. The bright lights from the nearby city catches my attention. The night city view is totally to die for. I remove my phone from my back pocket to take a picture when suddenly the Ferris wheel comes to a stop.

A speaker from down below announces," I would like to apologize but we are currently having a system difficulty. Please do not worry. Everything will be continuing back in less than ten minutes. Thank you for your cooperations."

"Francisco, are you okay?" I ask him as he looks around looking like his going to throw up. My eyes widen when I see a flash of fear in his eyes.

He grabs my hands and squeezes it lightly," Im...im afraid of heights..."

I look into his fearful hazel eyes as he stares back at mine. I hold both his hands as he holds mine, shaking slightly.

"It's okay." I comfort him and cup his cheeks.

Make a move Elisabeth. It's now or never.

I slowly reach in closer to his face and climb onto both his tights.

Lust forms in his eyes when my breath reaches his face. I move in and crash my lips against his but for a while he doesn't do anything and stare at me in shock. After a second, he pulls my waist closer to him and kisses me back, slowly and gently. His kisses were filled with passion, that's when I knew that he was fully falling for me.

I, managed to make the school's bad boy fall in love with me. The one that made Francisco Adams commit. Commit to a relationship even when everyone else knew that he couldn't be tamed. I tamed him. I tamed the beast and the player within him.
