the same, "Yes, whoo" Dan shouted "No one pass's me," he laughed. They raced a little further but soon had to slow down as they approached more traffic then headed into town. The race over.
    After driving around a while trying to find a parking spot, Dan ended up parking at least a half a mile away Emily figured and had to walk to get to the fair entrance.
    "If Emily hadn't taken so long to get ready, we wouldn't have had to park so far away," Joe remarked.
    “Quit complaining Joe” Dan laughed as Emily said,
    "Shut up Joe," laughing as she playfully pushed him. He stumbled almost falling off the sidewalk in front of a car. Emily and Dan both grabbed him, as they laughed even harder.
    Emily could heard voices behind them and knew right away who it was. She turned around to see Billy and his brother Ed. Billy saw her and grinned, she turned back around quickly, so no one would see.
    They had to stand in line forever it seemed like, Emily felt so impatient she thought she could scream, but knew it would just make her look crazy and she laughed at herself. But it sure didn’t help matters with Billy in the line next to her, giving her the sweet smiling, big eye’s thing, every time he thought her brothers wasn’t looking and of course this was making her laugh, which was hard to hide from Josh and Dan. They finally got to pay their way in and all decided to go their separate ways, agreeing to meet at the entrance at eleven.
    "11pm sharp," Dan said with authority, and pointed his finger at them both. Emily waved bye at her brothers heading toward the cotton candy stand, that was suddenly screaming come eat me at her. The lights and music from the rides were amazing, Emily thought as she paid for her cotton candy, then looked around her as she spun in a circle staring at the rides that looked so inviting, the many colors all flashing, the screams and laughter from the rides, sent sensations of joy through her body, and she wished she had someone to ride with. Maybe, just maybe, her mind went to Billy.
    She walked toward the animal exhibits, stopped and looked at her Dad’s cows and goats he had showed, then laughed at the cute little bunnies someone had brought, then headed toward the games.
    Laughing, she stood and watched as a young man threw dart after dart attempting to win his girlfriend a large stuffed dog. Emily thought it was so funny, how he continued to throw money away trying to impress his girl, when he clearly couldn’t hit the balloon. So involved in the pitiful show she was watching, she didn’t hear him approach.
    "You want one" the familiar voice behind her said, she turned around surprised to look into the big brown eyes of Billy. Oh, it’s him, she felt her heart leap.
    "What one for me?" she asked, pointing at her chest, attempting a smile.
    He smiled at her, then said "watch this,” as he leaned into her with a whisper, “I bet I can get you one before he gets one for his girl."
    I bet you can, Emily thought as she watched Billy walk up to the Carny and pay the man, for three darts. He pulled his dart back and hit the first balloon, pop Emily felt herself smile, and watched as he hit all three balloons. He looked back at her smiling, then he traded the small prize for three more darts. She watched in amazement at his skill as he throw dart after dart, trading up for a bigger prize each time, then, before long he had a big blue stuffed dog in his arms. Smiling proudly as he handed the dog to Emily.
    “Thank you Billy” she laughed.
    “Throw a little lighter man, or give up.” Billy smiled and told the other guy. Emily laughed as they both walked away.
    She felt his hand touch her arm, "You want to ride a few rides with me, I have a handful of tickets, and you do owe me a date." he smiled, as he waved the tickets in his hand, showing her. She was stunned and thought for a minute, wondering who would see and tell on her, or even if her brothers might see. If they did, she would be in big
