Long time no see? XP

A star? The word repeated in her head as she narrowed her eyebrows at the blonde woman in front of her.
She opened her mouth to say something but was immediately cut off from the feeling of two hands on the base of her precious curved horns. Usually, she would push her away from the unfamiliar feeling but there was something about the way she held them in her hand. Like her father. She was careful as fingers ran up all the way to the tip of the ivory monstrosities growing on the top of her head.
"Gorgeous..." She muttered under her breath.
Carmen couldn't help but turn red at the woman's compliment. Elsa chuckled from the color of the girls face, her hand tucking under her chin to have a clearer look at her. Elsa searched for something in her dark blue eyes. A familiar look deep inside of them, a look that she could spot from a mile away.
Fear.
"What is it child, have you never heard a compliment before?" She joked.
Carmen quickly shook her head, making Elsa gasp and place a hand dramatically on her chest. Causing her to flinch. "Oh, no. That's certainly has to change."
And with the flip of her hair, the blonde woman turned around and walked over towards the bed. Picking up her fur coat and looking over her shoulder at the horned girl standing awkwardly next to the window. Her hands fiddling with a stray string of her dirty light blue dress.
"Am I going to have to put this on myself?"
Her horns brushed against the roof of the car as soon as she settled into the black leather seats.
It was a mystery how Elsa was able to sneak Carmen out of the carefully watched church. Almost as if this were her hundredth time doing this with a person. Carmen was obviously reluctant to go with the charming stranger. But, she had a feeling that if she stayed there any longer, something bad would have happened to her by the end of the week. Did this mean she was on the run now? The teenage girl leaned on her fist, staring longingly out of the window as the trees passed by quickly. They were in the middle of no where it seemed. In the corner of her eye, she peaked at the blonde haired woman who raised the lit cigarette to her lips, instantly reminding her of how her mother held a cigarette between her carefully painted nails.
Elsa chuckled as she turned her head to look at the pale horned child. Carmen's cheeks immediately heating up as she was caught red handed staring at her, snapping her head down to look at her hand once again playing with the strand piece of string from her dress.
"You, my dear."
Carmen's head shot up from the sound of her heavily accented voice and Elsa kept her gaze focused not on at her face but onto the top of her head.
Flashing a warm smile, "You're going to be what saves us."
Carmen didn't know whether she was talking to her or her horns.
She waited for her to elaborate more but only received a lung full of smoke as Elsa exhaled smoke out of her nose. Raising her hand to cover her mouth, she let out a pathetic cough. Ultimately leaning back into the leather seat once again and staring aimlessly out the window.
She had missed her parents already. She wanted to see them, hug them, but deep inside, she knew they would be better off without her anywhere near them. The thought made her sigh longingly in her head. Was she ever going to see them again? What if they were...dead? But before she could think about any more horrendous possibilities of her parents being stoned by the Christians who stood outside their house, her thoughts were cut off by the sudden halt of the car.
"Were here, Darling." She announced, the car door suddenly opening for her.
Elsa took a step out, breathing in the familiar scent of plastic and cheap perfume. Or how she defines it, the smell of 'fame'. Carmen followed her shortly, ducking her head extra low to make sure her horns didn't damage the town car any more. Unlike the first time she entered it. Elsa turned towards the horned girl and touched her shoulder gently. The foreign feeling causing the hair behind Carmen's neck to rise as she followed the blonde woman's gaze. And with a sweep of a hand, Elsa presented the large tent.
"Welcome to the Freak Show." She whispered.
