School was... Okay. I'm still the "little emo freak", but it's better with everyone there. I didn't mind it. We are all actually going to the carnival thing by Matt's house now. Vic is on his way to pick me up. I'm fairly excited, I just hope there's no clowns.
*****
"Hey!" Vic greeted when I sat in his car.
"Hi!" Just being around these guys puts me in a better mood.
"So how was your first day? I didn't see you much,"
"It was actually okay," I smiled genuinely. "How was yours?" Vic's hands on the steering wheel visibly tense on the steering wheel as he continued to drive before quickly relaxing.
"Vic, are you okay?" I asked.
"Just fine," he fake smiled.
"Vic..."
"Yes Bonnie?"
"You know you can tell me anything, right?" I asked seriously.
"Of course. C'mon, let's go find the others." he said quickly. I jumped out of the car and walked to his side. He grabbed my hand and gently intertwined our fingers, making a small blush rise on my cheeks. We continued through the park and I smiled. Rides, games, food stands, adults, teenagers and children were everywhere. Everyone looked like they were having so much fun. We finally found the others And I hugged them all in greeting before deciding what to do.
"I want to go on the Ferris wheel," Alan said.
"YES!" I linked my arm through his and we skipped towards the ticket place. After getting tickets, we waited impatiently in line for our turn. It was finally our turn and we got clipped in to our seats before going around and around.
"WEE!" Alan and I shouted excitedly, throwing our hands in the air when we reached the top. The wheel made a creaking noise and suddenly stopped. What the fuck.
"I'm very sorry! The Ferris wheel has encountered some technical difficulties and we will have it fixed as soon as possible! Please sit back and relax!" The worker dude said through his megaphone.
"I don't want to be stuck on top of a Ferris wheel!" Alan whined, pouting and crossing his arms.
"Neither do I!" I got out my phone and looked at it in surpirise. You get full reception from on top of a Ferris wheel. Huh, who knew? I dialled Austin's number.
"Hello?"
"Austin! Alan and I are stuck on top of the Ferris wheel!"
"You're stuck? How on earth did you manage that Princess?"
"We didn't do it! The Ferris wheel is broken!"
"Okay, just calm down. We're on our way - Hey! I can see you!"
"Okay..." I hung up. About a minute later, all of the boys were on the ground, laughing. Jaime then proceeded to take out his camera and take photos. Alan was gladly posing and smiling like an idiot, while I flipped him off.
I checked my my phone and seen Tony was calling.
"What's going on?" I asked.
"They should have it fixed in about 5 minutes, so sit tight babe,"
"Ughh, okay,"
"See you soon when you're not stuck in the air,"
"Shut up dick," Tony simply laughed before hanging up.
"About 5 minutes," I told Alan. He nodded and I closed my eyes, throwing my head back.
Then I felt rocking.
My eyes snapped open and gasped in shock when I seen Alan smiling and rocking the cart back an forth.
"Ashby! Stop!" I panicked, holding onto the edge of the seat for dead life.
"No! I'm bored an this is fun!"
"It won't be fun when we fall out and plummet to our deaths!" I snapped.
"Don't worry Bon!" I was expecting him to be nice and say maybe "We won't die!" But no. "If we fall, I'll use you as a shield from the ground! I'll be fine!" I gaped at him and slapped his arm. Hard.
"Oww! What the fuck?! I was joking!"
"Stop rocking the fucking cart!" I can't believe he's still doing it!
The Ferris wheel suddenly lurched forward and started moving again, with the cart still rocking. I screamed as we were almost falling out and I tightly grabbed Alan's hand.
"Bonnie! Release your grip a little!"
"Fuck you!" I said through gritted teeth. So when I'm scared, I get a little snappy...
We finally reached the Ground and as soon as I was free, I was off that fucking thing in 3 seconds.
"You got off that fast," Oli smirked at me. I glared at him.
"And she killed my hand!" Alan held up his right hand which was dented with nail marks and some of them were bleeding.
"Damn girl!" Matt stared at his hand in disbelief.
"Oh my god Alan! I'm so sorry!" I apologised.
"Man, she would be great in bed," Mike muttered. We all turned to look at him.
"Oh shit, did I say that outloud?"
"You did," Jaime nodded.
"Well, that's awkward..." We all stood there awkwardly for a minute.
"Soooo," Vic dragged on, making it even more awkward. good for you buddy. What an accomplishment.
"Let's get food, and then we can walk around and go on a few more rides." Austin told us. we all nodded and followed him to wherever he was taking us for food I suppose.
After food, we all went off into groups of 3. I was with Oli, Vic and Jaime. We were currently on a merry go round for children 10 years old and under.
"This is stupid," Oli frowned from beside me, since we were both squished into the small 2 seated rocket.
"It is not!" I protested.
"It is!"
"You're just upset cos you wanted the rocket all to yourself! Selfish meanie!"
"I can honestly assure you that is not the reason,"
"Nope. You're just jealous I got the rocket first! If you wanted it all to yourself, you should've ran faster!" I poked my tongue out at him.
"I swear you are a 5 year old on drugs!" Oli face palmed. Jealous bitch he is. I seen Vic sitting in another rocket with a bored look on his face, and Jaime o a horse laughing like a crazy lunatic. he was having a great time.
"That was just a waste of my time," Vic said when we were all off the merry go round.
"Mine too," Oli agreed. Jaime and I have them both 'the fuck is wrong with you?' look.
"I personally think it was fucking fantastic," Jaime shrugged.
"You and me both. Let's go and leave these party poopers by themselves," I jumped onto Jaime's back and we went racing around the carnival.
"Hello kids!" I froze and jumped off Jaime's back, clutching tightly onto his arm. there was a clown with green Afro hair, big shoes and brightly coloured clothes. And face paint all over. he was terrifying.
"Scary clown," I said quietly.
"Bon, are you okay?"
"Scary clown. Run from scary clown!" I took off in the other direction. Looking begin me and seen Jaime and the clown chasing me. i screamed , not caring about the looks I was getting.
"I just want to give you candy! My name is Stew!"
"PEDOPHILE WITH A WEIRD NAME!" Honestly though, who names their kid stew?
"Bonnie! Stop!" Mike's arms wrapped around me and the clown was getting closer. where the hell was Jaime? OH MY GOD THE KILLER CLOWN ATE HIM! I looked at Tony': candy floss and grabbed it from him, Throwing it at the clown.
"I was eating that..."
"RUN FROM SCARY CLOWN!" I kept running until I was picked up from security. oh shit.
-------
"I'm sorry for getting us kicked out," I apologised to the guys.
"It's okay. At least we know not to go anywhere with clowns with you now." Matt smiled.
