Chapter 1
We walk through the enormous park taking it all in. The sickeningly heavy smell of fried foods fills the air and I smile at the nostalgia the smell brings. I laugh as Robyn and Maggie make a mad dash for one of the booths selling cotton candy as my older brother and his girlfriend walk towards the games.
"Wait up!" I yell jogging after my friends.
Maggie orders a large cotton candy and a churro and pays the sketchy looking man, taking her food. We walk to the whack-a-mole game where my brother is playing an intense game trying to win Jessie a prize. I chuckle knowing he'll lose as always and Jessie will step up to play and win him a bear with almost no effort. It's practically tradition at this point. As we wait for them to finish, Robyn snatches some of Maggie's sugar-spun treat.
"Hey I asked you if you wanted one and you said no! You can't take any of mine now!" She yells over the loud carnival music raising it above her head so Robyn couldn't take anymore.
The bright blue cotton candy almost matches the streaks of light blue in her otherwise brown head of hair. Her hair is cut short and sweet, resembling her general attitude, and her brown eyes compliment that perfectly.
I smile as Robyn tries tackling her to grab it her long nails almost ripping a hole in Maggie's thin band tank top. The strange band was not the only shall I say, unusual part of her general attire. Her gothic chick -her words not mine- fasion sense has also lead her to wear black skinny jeans, although its much too hot outside for that and a weird silver studded belt.
Robyn's pink crop top rises dangerously high as she stands on her tippy toes to try and reach the cotton candy but Maggie swiftly wraps her arms around her placing the sugar spun treat infront of her face and kisses her cheek. Robyn taking advantage of the opportunity takes a large bite out of it and giggles when Maggie realises.
They make the cutest couple.
Jessie and Jordan walk up to us with a huge bear in their arms. Jessie smiles widely and my brother is sulking.
"So did you win?" I ask him, with a smirk growing on my face.
He punches me in the arm and I shove him backwards. He stumbles slightly and knocks into an old lady who shoots him a death glare. I bite my lip trying to hold back my laughter and he growls.
"Stop it. Both of you" Jessie says coming between us. "We're trying to get everyone home in one piece here."
We both laugh at my brothers immaturity as he pouts and sulks.
" Get over it! How old are you, four?" I ask taunting him.
He growls as Jessie turns to him. I stick my tongue out at him turning on my heels and walking away as he argues earning a punch in the arm from her. I laugh, leaving them to bicker and search for my friends.
I look for them through the crowd of people and stand on my tip toes to try and get a better view. I spot Robyn's siganature curly dark hair in the distance and I walk up to them. As I approach them I see them waiting in line for some rollercoaster that does huge loops at scary speeds.
"Are you guys seriously going on this thing? What the actual fuck is going through your heads? " I yell over the chatter of everyone and the eery carnival music.
"Of course we are! YOLO!" Maggie yells back.
I roll my eyes. This girl with her 2012 references. The next thing you know she'll break out into Gangnam style. She does have a point though. But also if they jumped off a bridge would I?... Yeah probably.
"So are you coming or not?" She asks snapping me out of my thoughts.
I nod and we wait in line. My phone chimes and I check my notifications.
- Where are you guys?
"Um do you guys know what this ride's called? My brother wants to know"
Robyn points to the neon sign, too engrossed in their conversation about which superhero is better to reply.
- At "the Punisher"
I reply laughing at the name.
- Kinky. Lol meet us at the alien spinning thing when your done. Don't die
I laugh and my friends look at me strangely. I show them the text and they laugh too. Robyn grabs my phone and replies for me.
-Alright have fun Jojo
I laugh again knowing he's probably fuming. He hates it when Robyn calls him Jojo.
I stuff my phone into my bag showing the park worker my ticket before taking a seat next to my friends.
"Are you excited babe?" Robyn asks slightly jittery taking a seat.
Maggie nods putting her arm around her and I smile. I feel slightly like a third wheel but at the same time they're my best friends, so I'm happy they're happy.
" Get a room." I laugh.
The ride operator comes and puts the bar down. He gives us a strange look, almost like he was judging us, so in turn I almost give him the middle finger but decide against it. I don't want to get kicked out of the park this soon.
"Is it too late to back out?" Robyn asks fidgeting nervously with the hem of her crop top.
"Yup" Maggie and I reply at the same time.
She turns pale as the machinery whirrs which is a first considering her caramel skin tone. We start ascending the first hill and I can already see Robyn struggling to prevent the surprise guest apperance the cotton candy is threatening to make.
We're all the way at the top now and we're hovering over the drop.
It didn't look this bad from the ground.
I can tell they're thinking the same thing.
We slowly go over the edge and we're already screaming.
So much for making it home in one piece Jessie.
