“You get to pick a medium prize,” the carny tells me.
“The princess tiara,” I tell him. He grabs one and hands it to me. I turn to Marley, placing it on her head. “A tiara for the Princess.”
She giggles. “I’m not even surprised.”
I shrug and grin. “You know me too well.”
“Now, we go to the ring toss,” Raze states.
Once at the ring toss, Raze and I each pay for ten rings.
“All you have to do is toss the ring onto a bottle,” Marley asks.
Minx laughs. “It’s a lot harder than you would think.”
“Do you want to try,” I ask Marley.
“I’ll sit this one out,” she says.
“Let me know if you change your mind.” I begin tossing my rings. When I finish, I made four in total.
“Nice job,” the carny says to me. “Pick a prize.”
I turn to Marley. “Which prize you want, Princess?”
She taps her finger on her chin, mulling it over. “How about the pink otter.”
“You got it.” The carny grabs a pink otter and hands it to Marley. She stands on her tippy toes, pressing a kiss to my lips.
“What was that for?”
“Just because.” She winks at me. “What’s next?”
“The Ferris Wheel,” I tell her.
