The afternoon passes in a blur, rides and games all bleeding into one another for a long, delightful few hours. Both she and Sabrina, through effort or desire or a combination of the two, find it simpler than either of them might have thought to let everything else go, moving easily from one ride or booth or fattening food stall like it's the only thing that matters in the world. For today, right now, maybe it is.

Ice cream in hand, Rosie looks out at the water, the sun only just starting its descent towards the horizon and coloring the waves in gold and bronze and silver. The pressure of Sabrina's knee is enough to bring her out of her thoughts, and she turns her head towards the other girl, a soft smile on her face. "I did," she says, catching the faint hesitancy in the way Sabrina asks the question. "And not just because of the ice cream, or the rides, or...it was all wonderful. The whole afternoon."
