"It's never happened before, no," he added in response to her question of if Damien had had -- what would you call it? A vision? Hallucination. That would be the better term to use. "It only happened the one time we hugged, but not anytime before or after."
He felt the squeeze of her hand and turned towards her, worry still spread over his eyes, yet a smile played at the corner of his mouth. "I just -- don't want you to think I'm -- crazy or -- or anything like that, you know?"
It was reassuring to hear how she'd stand by him, though.
Then the voice of ther Carnie rang through his ears. They'd come full circle and their turn on the Ferris Wheel was over. They were told to exit the opposite side of their entrance to the basket, so Damien kept hold of Isobel's hand as the pair walked out and away from the giant wheel that, quite literally brought them together. Damien turned over his shoulder to look at the top where they'd been only moments ago. "Hopefully someone else will have as nice a ride as we did, eh?" he said turning back to Isobel, hand still enclosed with his. He smiled before closing the small distance between them, kissing her softly on the lips for the second time that night. "I'm begining to like that more and more," he confessed in a low voice.
Damien walked with her back around to where the end of the line for the Ferris Wheel was. "I can safely guess you wouldn't want to go back up again," he chuckled. "But I would like to take you somewhere else -- if you don't mind, that is --"
Isobel smiled teasingly at Damien.
"Damien, you don't need to see ghosts for me to think you're crazy. Even if you hadn't I would still think you're crazy." He had never flown on a broom! Seriously?
"But I am too, so that's okay."
She let out a small sigh of relief when they could stand on the ground again. She had liked the ride, but she had not liked the height.
"Hmmm," she said, considering his comment about someone else having as good a ride as them.
"I don't think that's possible." She smiled again, and blushed a little when he kissed her.
"I could definitely get used to that," she agreed.
"That's a pretty safe bet," she said with a smile.
"Sure, we can go wherever you want. But...after that there's somewhere I want you to go." She had been on the bumper brooms earlier with Maybelle, but it was not until that moment that she thought of an idea. Damien didn't want to ride a real broom, so she could at least force him to go on to the ride.
