It came as no surprise to the pair that the carnival was pact to the brim with people ready to burst. It only ever came around town twice a year and was always a hot spot for anyone looking to have a good time. Case in point why Derek chose this particular location for his date with Bethany.
As soon as they entered, they were immediately hit with music and chatter. So many people were chatting up and playing games with vendors from all over trying to bring people into their stalls. There were even a few clowns and mimes on sight that were meant to be funny but wound up unintentionally scaring a few people.
Bethany had been silent throughout the car ride and remained impassive as they walked around. She could see the various rides that were set up, as well as carnival games like bobbing for apples. She then turned to her date that looked like a kid at a candy store. Admittedly she found the sight cute but chose not to voice her thoughts.
"Wanna try some games to start off?" Derek asked. Her expression was rather plain, but she did nod her head in confirmation. "Great, I see clear booth not too far from here. Come on."
She followed closely behind him and took note of the game that was available, the classic test your strength challenge. An old man with a thick grey beard and top hat was in charge and daring anyone to attempt the challenge. Winners could receive any prize they wanted from his booth.
"How about you, young man?! Care to take the challenge and win a prize for the misses there?" He gestured to the pair.
Derek knew they weren't boyfriend and girlfriend but chose not to comment on it. Instead, he wanted to mess with Bethany a little. He smirked at the old man and confidently said, "Damn straight. I'll take the top prize you have."
Bethany raised an eyebrow as Derek hadn't corrected the old man but instead played into how incorrect he was about their association. He wasn't her boyfriend, nor had she ever had one. No man ever looked at her and when she started working out building muscle, they actively avoided her.
"How about it, babe? What would you like?" Derek asked her. Babe? She'd never been called babe by anyone, even as a joke. Her cheeks were heating up again and she pointed to the large stuffed rabbit that was sitting in the booth. "You got it."
"Step right up then." The old man dared. Bethany watched Derek walk over to the old man who was standing in front of the test your strength challenge. It was a tall machine with a bell at the top with different levels of power written on the sides. There was also a mallet at the base to hit the button on the bottom to initiate the game.
Her date gripped it tightly with both hands and held it high above his head. She didn't know it, but he wanted to impress her with his hard-earned muscles from playing on the grid iron.
"Just say when, old man." Derek said playfully.
The old man snorted. "When!"
Derek brough his arms down and struck...
