Changing Connor ~A sequel to changing Cameron~

Chapter 6- Festival fun

We drive until we reach a a crowded area. There's booths set up and you can see amusement park type rides peeking out from behind trees and buildings. Connor parks the car and him and I get out. I pull out the baby stroller from the trunk and get the diaper bag while Con gets Aria and joseph out of the car.

Connor puts Joseph in the stroller then secures him. He takes the stroller and I lock the doors and take Aria's hand. "I wanna go on the merry go round and maybe the swings and maybe the ferris wheel!", she squeals.

We keep walking until we reach a ticket book. Connor wraps his arm around me and comes close to my ear. "This sure does bring back memories", he whispers. I smile and nod my head in agreement. I practically lived in a ticket booth from my years 16-17.

Connor asks for a certain amount of tickets, then pays. We continue walking, me holding Aria's hand while she bounces up and down as she walks and Connor pushing Joseph's stoller and Joseph giggles at everything he sees.

"Hm, what should we go on first?", Connor asks. Aria looks around then gasps when she sees the game where you have to pop the balloon. She pulls my hand and leads all of us to the game.

"One round please!", she says, smiling proudly. I chuckle and Connor hands him the 2 dollars it costs. He gives her a dart thing. If you don't know, the object of the game is to hit one of the balloons that's on the wall with a dart. If you pop a certain amount, you get a teddy bear.

Aria throws one and it almost hits the guy. "Woah! That was a close one, you almost got my eye", he says, laughing a bit. Aria giggles then apologizes. He hands her another dart and she aims it, then throws. It pops and she screams. The guy laughs and hands her her last dart. She aims it again and it hits.

"WE HAVE A WINNER!", the guy shouts. Connor and I cheer and clap as Aria smiles proudly. He gives the choices of the first role, which are medium sized stuffed animals. She can either choose a penguin, a giraffe, a lion, or a panda. She chooses a giraffe and he hands it to her. She shrieks and holds it close to her.

We lead her to another game that she chooses. It's the one where there's ducks in a small tiny pool and you choose one, whatever number is on the bottom corosponds to a prize of the shelf. Luckily the game only costs a dollar.

Aria reaches her tiny hand down in the water and picks one up. To my surprise and hers, there's nothing on it. "Um, there's nothing on the bottom of that duck", I say, taking it from a sad looking Aria.

"Oh, man, I am so sorry. But those are the rules, if there is a number, you get the prize, if there's not. Well woops sorry", the woman says. I just glare at her and Connor puts a hand on my shoulder.

"She's a four year old. I paid the dollar, give me the freaking prize before I tip this tent over", I say, still keeping my calm voice. The woman looks at me and smirks. Connor stops her before she can say anything.

"Wait a second", he says. He looks at the pool with a weird expression and leans over and picks up another duck. It doesn't have one. Another, still none, another, nope. "None of these have numbers. You're a scam!". A body guard rushes over to us and the woman stiffens.

"What seems to be the problem?", he asks. I start explaining what the woman has done and he gives us our money back, then leads the woman away. We walk off to another duck tent, wow, there's a lot of those.

"Do you wanna still play one of these?", Connor asks her. She nods her head and Connor looks at me. I shrug and he gives the man running the tent a dollar. Aria bends down and picks up a duck. She looks at the bottom and sees that it's a number 2. She hands it to the man and he looks up on his shelf.

"Well lookey what we have! A princess tiara for a very pretty princess!", he says. She squeals and he hands it to her. She insantly puts in on her head and turns to Connor and I for thoughts.

"Oh my gosh king Cameron, what a beutiful princess we have in our presence on this fine, beautiful day", Connor says with a fake british accent. Aria giggles and we thank the man, then walk off.

"Do you think there'd be any games for a 3 month old to play?", I ask Connor. He looks down in the stroller and Joseph looks up at him and giggles. He shrugs and I stop and look around.

"Hm, what about, a golf fish thing? The thing where you throw the ball and try and get it into a small glass bowl. And if it gets in you get a fish?", Connor suggests.

"Joseph would eat the ball. And he's also a baby, I don't think he can throw a ball", I say. Connor makes an "oh" expression and I laugh. "But we could win him one? I'm sure he'd like to watch it swim around". Connor nods in agreement and we walk over to the fish guy.

"Come one come all! Get a ball in the bowl and win a fish!", he shouts. "Well hello! How many tries?". Connor tells him 3 and he hands us the balls. "No charge for Youtubes finest". He winks at us and Connor smiles. Connor tosses the ball and it goes in. He tosses another and misses, then misses again. "Luckily it just takes one! Congrats!". He hands us a bag with an orange fish in it. Connor thanks him and puts the bag carefully in the stroller.

Joseph squeals when he sees the fish. He doesn't touch the bag, just looks at it with the amazement of a baby watching a fish in a plastic bag. "Alright! Who's ready for some super awesome time of riding rides??". Aria raises her hand and jumps up and down.

She chooses the swings, then the merry go round, the a big ride which she isn't tall enough for. She doesn't cry or pout, but she wasn't too happy about it. Then we go on some little kid rides and she seems to have more fun on them then any other.

When dark clouds start to roll in, we start making our way to the car. "Hey daddy?", Aria asks as we walk to the car. I look down at her. "Do you think a couple of years Jospeh will be able to ride with me?". I smile and nod my head. She gives me a smile and we finally reach the car.

Connor gets the baby and the fish out and put them in the the car. I help Aria in and strap her down. Then put the stroller up and get in myself. Our drive home is a peaceful quiet one. When we get home I help Connor with the babies.

After we all get settled down and in our pj's we put the babies in the bed, then get into the bed ourselves. I put my arms around Connor and kiss his cheek. "Thank you for an amazing day, you really are an amazing husband and fantastic father, I didn't mean anything I said before", I say. He smirks.

"That wasn't all of the surprise", he says. Before I can respond, he dissapears under the cover and I feel my pants come off.

"Oh.. Oh that's what you mean", I moan.
