clay's pov
"hey y/n?"
y/n looked up at me, she was lying down on me.
"yeah?"
"do you wanna go to the fair again? i know we've kinda been running out of ideas for us to do but i know going to the fair was really fun for both of us and i think it would be even more fun now that we're together." i gave her a warm smile.
she returned the smile and gave me an eager nod.

i walked to the other side of the car and opened the door for her, grabbing her hand to help her.
"yknow you don't have to open the door for me every single time right?" she laughed.
"i know but i want to, plus it's night so i don't want you falling just in case." i gave her a kiss on the forehead. "and i'm such a gentleman." i smiled.
y/n playfully rolled her eyes as we continued to talk while walking into the fair. after buying tickets, we decided to go on the rides and play the games right away.
first, we went to the ring toss where y/n beat me by just a couple rings. she ended up getting a small, but cute, giraffe stuffed animal as her prize. i snapped a picture of her as she smiled to me, holding her giraffe for the camera to see.
"pretty." i said as i looked at the photo.
"handsome." y/n whispered in my ear before pulling me to go find more things to do, leaving me with a pink tint growing across my cheeks.
we played games with squirt guns, mini basketballs, and ping pong balls. y/n won the game with the squirt guns and i won the other two but i ended up getting prizes that she wanted because i thought it would be cute.
we went back to the car real quick to put away all the stuffed animals we had because we didn't want to carry them for the next couple things we were gonna do.
i gently grabbed y/n's hand as i lead her to the mirror maze. these were always a little frustrating but they were mostly fun if you had friends to do it with.
after the man hosting the game gave us plastic gloves to put on our hands — so we don't leave fingerprints on the mirrors — we entered the maze. there were dimmed light blue lights all throughout the maze and you could definitely not tell which way was which. y/n grabbed my hand and led me through the maze, carefully. we started to get the hang of it and i got a little too excited... i took the lead and started to fast walk through the mirrors but i ended up running into one, face first. ow.
"oh my gosh, clay!" y/n let go of my hand and turned me to face her. i was holding my nose in pain. it didn't hurt that bad but obviously, it still hurt. she was smiling a little at my accident because we both knew she told me to slow down. "oh clay." i chuckled a little in response but ended up wincing a little at the movement.
she moved my hand from my nose and looked at it. she immediately took a tissue out of her pocket and held it up to my nose careful not to hurt me. i looked at her confused.
"bloody nose." she told me.
i hummed in response as i took the tissue from her hand to hold it myself. we carefully guided our way out of the maze and threw away the plastic gloves we were given. y/n grabbed my hand once again and led me to the water bubblers. she grabbed another tissue from her pocket and let the cold water from the bubbler soak the tissue. once it was completely wet, she ringed it out carefully and motioned for me to move away the tissue i was holding onto my nose.
she paused for a second before carefully dabbing the tissue on the dried blood just under my nose.
"what?" i asked her.
she didn't respond, she just touched the middle part of my nose lightly, i winced a little.
"ow, what is that?"
"i guess you cut your nose too?" she told me. i don't really know how that works but people get cuts all the time from random things so whatever.
she finished cleaning up the blood under my nose and told me the blood stopping running from my nose but apparently the cut on my nose was bleeding. y/n sighed.
"let's just go find a band-aid for you to put on your nose." she pulled me along with her as she walked to the ticket booth.
"but then i'll look stupid." i whined. y/n stopped to look at me.
"no, you'll look cute." she giggled.
"c'mon, having a band-aid right across your nose?"
"it'll be fineeee." y/n told me.
"okay okay but i do need to do to the bathroom so can you grab the band-aid for me and then come to the bathrooms after?" i asked her.
"yea sure." she handed me the damp tissue and i held it on my cut as i walked to the bathroom.
y/n's pov
the woman behind the stand was very kind and gave me a smaller band-aid for clay because i told her that he thought it would look stupid as a joke. i smiled and waved goodbye as she continued to give people tickets.
i began walking to the bathrooms when i heard running behind me. i kept walking but i turned my head to see a guy, probably around 5'8, run up to me to start walking by my side. he didn't say anything so i stopped walking but he also stopped.
"can i help you?" i questioned.
"yes actually, you can. so i'm actually single, i know, hard to tell right? i mean, look at me." he waved his hands up and down his body as i rolled my eyes. "anyways, i'm single and i think your also ready to mingle so why don't we-" he grabbed my hand mid-sentence but i immediately smacked it away.
"don't touch me, i have a boyfriend." and i started to walk again. but, he continued to follow me.
"can you stop following me?" i stopped and turned around only to be met with two more boys there. "where did you come fro- that's besides the point." i cut myself off. "i'm taken. and clearly you guys aren't so go find another girl to bother." i stated and continued to walk away.
i heard them cat-calling me and they were only getting closer. i started to pick up my pace, the bathrooms were just about 20 feet or so in front of me. just when i was about to walk into the girls bathroom to escape the boys, one of them came up behind me and hugged me. i tried to get him to let go but he wouldn't, he only hugged me tighter.
"let go of me!" i shouted at him, hoping to attract any attention. unlucky for me, the bathrooms were kinda off from all the other booths and rides so no one heard me.
the guy who was hugging me loosened his grub and spun me around. still, i wasn't able to get away from him.
"why hello there." he smiled. i turned my head in disgust. "oh, don't be so shy..." i could tell he was about to say more but he paused and looked over my head.
i was about to turn my head to see what he was looking at but i felt a familiar pair of arms wrap around my waist and pull me towards them. i looked up to see clay holding me tight against his chest. i smiled but clay wasn't smiling, he wasn't even looking at me. he was eyeing the man that hugged me while the other guys were already beginning to walk away.
"hey! that's my girlfriend!" the man who was hugging me shouted.
clay scoffed. "actually, this is my girlfriend. so get you and your shit show out of my sight."
clay's voice was serious and bold... i've never seen clay like this and to be honest, it was kinda scary. i guess the men also found it quite scary because they regrouped and walked away. clay loosened his grip on my waist and spun me around, his face went from serious to concerned.
"are you okay? did they hurt you?" he looked all over my body to see if there were any bite marks or scratches or anything.
"clay." his eyes flicked back up to mine. "i'm okay, they didn't hurt me." i gave him a quick peck on the lips. he smiled at me and returned the quick peck.
-
"are you sure you wanna do this?" i questioned clay.
clay had asked me if i wanted to go on the ferris wheel again, like we did last time. but i know clay has a fear of heights and didn't want to push him into doing it.
"yes!! i feel safer when i'm doing it with you anyway." he smiled and looked back up at the ferris wheel.
"okay." i laughed and pulled him into the line.
next chapter will be part 2 of this!!
