The coaster reached the crest of the hill. “Raise your hands Allison!” Jack cried. They both raised their hands, arms brushing against their furry ears. Down they went!
“YEEEEE HAW!!!!!! Jack yelled as they plummeted. He put his hands down. While the cliché cheer had started normal, Jack had felt that pressure in his chest on the “haw.”
He nudged Allison. “Hey I felt that pressure again!” Allison looked at him jealously. “What did you do?” She asked grumpily as the coaster began to come to the end. As the coaster slowed, it headed towards a gigantic funhouse style mouth, only it was sculptured like an open donkey mouth.
Jack had an idea. “Allison, when we go in,let’s take a deep breath and just yell!” As they both sucked in air, they felt a huge pressure building in their chests. As they entered the mouth and the coaster rolled to a stop, they pulled back with ears flat against their backs and pushed forward with all their might. “HHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-HAWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!”
All the kids in the car looked back at them in surprise and clapped. “Hee hee hee....good one guys.” Said a boy whose nose was wide across his face.
“Jack that felt wonderful.” Allison said dreamily as they walked out. “I know.” Jack reached up and scratched behind her ear.
A delighted “hawwww” slipped from her mouth as her gray furry ear leaned into his hand. “Best beer ever.” She said.
It was the end of a long day. Jack and Allison headed to the hotel that was situated right next to the donkey pasture. As they passed they looked longingly at the donkeys in the pasture. They had it so easy.
“Allison let’s get a room overlooking the pasture.” Jack said. Finding the perfect room, they turned in for the night.
“Man, they really went all out on the donkey theme.” Said Allison as they explored the room. There were pictures of donkeys everywhere. Most interesting was the bed.
“Is that...” Jack started. Allison felt the gray bed sheets. “The sheets are made of donkey fur. It even smells like donkey. Here, have a whiff.” Jack took a deep sniff, nostrils flaring and staying flared. “Smells good.
So Allison, what was your favorite part of our first day?” Allison thought a bit, scratching the inside of her hairy ear. Jack had been expecting her to say the destruction house.
“You know what? I think I liked the donkey theme the most. I especially enjoyed when we just let loose and mock brayed at the end of that coaster.” Jack was taken aback. “Hee-haw!” He teased her.
“Hey that sounded almost real! Let me try.” She sucked in a breath and belted it out. “HEEEE-HAWWWW!!!”
Jack smiled. “I know what we are doing the rest of the night.”
The two spent the rest of the night practicing their braying. They wanted to be better at it than any of the other kids by tomorrow. As they brayed, their lips thickened, turning rubbery, and Allison’s nose spread wide across her face.
