This chapter is going to be a short one.


The organizers of the festival came with the idea that by making the festival a one day only event, people will have the most fun, hence profits will be maximized. What an impressive display of colors there were- colors varying, streams of balloons and ribbons galore, and games by the several were propped up and always full. All of the regulars were there, one of them being a very reluctant Robbie Shapiro.

He had his outfit picked out already, going with a gray shirt and Levi jeans, vans, and a black AE hoodie with a graphic design on it. To say the least, he was going to shine with a different outfit, but circumstances during the middle of the night happened to play out, causing him to make some drastic changes in order to not appear like a zombie walking amongst the living.

Robbie could not contain his excitement for the upcoming festival. It would mark a significant point in his relationship with Cat Valentine. They would play all of the games, go catch a movie, go dancing at the nightclub, everything in between and walk along the shoreline, barefoot as the cold, foamy and salty water went in between their toes. He was fantasizing about the conclusion of the festival when he receives a text message from Cat, saying that he needs to see him right now.

"Lets see, I can either stare at the water for the duration of the festival or I can-" Robbie sees all of the happy couples holding hands, some kissing and men winning stuffed bears for their women, and then abruptly decides to stare at the water forever.

I'm too nice of a guy? Give me a break!

"Why does he look so down?"

Jade's aura shooed away everyone with every step that she walked. She wandered aimlessly around for the first hour and change of the festival, hating that her mind made the decision to attend the festival. Ideally she would have gone with Beck, but they broke up and Jade was all cried out from the breakup, so she gamely threw on a cute outfit, toned down the makeup just a tad, and hauled it to the festival with nary a care in the world. She got out of her car, and immediate the clear and happy ambience that the festival was bringing immediately turned dark. It was like a PowerPoint that had 30 blue themed slides, but then quickly flipped through 75 dark ones. Seeing that the pier wasn't really frequented, Jade made her way to it and walked around the old lighthouse that was made into a restaurant. Coming back, she saw a man with a whole bunch of stuff set up ask her if she wanted to use binoculars, the last army model before they recently switched to new ones.

"You can see for miles and miles- changing the focus is simple too."

"What the hell, sure." Jade tossed the man a $5, and began peering through them with feigned excitement. She did not notice that there were several other piers, unable to count them all due to the fading sun. The man told her to hurry up, talking about having a little more than 5 minutes left to see. Jade focused the binoculars to as far as she could, seeing a couple of restaurants, the theatre, a club, a fountain with more binoculars, and a man with a cool sweater and glasses moping around. Jade dropped the binoculars and made her way over to where the man was, crossing her fingers that he would still be there.
