Turning Ouran upside down. Chapter 9- Day 5 at the beach!
"Here." I say and throw her my jacket.
She puts it on and zips it up. Then we walk out and promptly get drenched. Good thing my arms are longer than hers because the sleeves cover her hands, covering the brace. She flips the hood up and crosses her arms trying to keep warm because that rain was cold! I put my arm around her and we quickly walked over and ducked in the limo. We all looked at each other and started laughing hysterically because we are soaked. We drive home and all go up to our rooms and promptly go to sleep, because we have been at the hospital all day and it's like ten o'clock. I dream of music and face painting, crazy things. Out of my mind things. Alice-like things.
Alice's POV
It's around one in the afternoon and we're getting ready to go out into town because they are having a festival. Not the kind I always went to mind you, but like a fair or something. We get together the things we're taking with us and then drive out there. We get out of the car and I shiver because the twins put together my outfit today. It's a purple and pink striped tank top and jean shorts. Even though we are at the beach it's still March. I grab the jacket I picked up off my desk. I didn't even look at it, I hope it doesn't have holes in it or anything. As I put it on, I realize that it's the jacket Kyoya loaned me yesterday. Eh, whatever. At least it's warm.
"Takashi! Look, they have cake here!" Mitskuni says and starts running toward the cake stands, Takashi hurrying after him.
I look around to see Tamaki pulling Haruhi off to a stand where you catch goldfish and Hikaru and Kauru running toward games. I look up to see Kyoya smirking at me.
"What?" I ask.
"Nice jacket." he answers, amused.
"Why thank you. Someone nice let me borrow it yesterday. I wonder where he went?" I say, placing my finger on the side of my chin like I'm thinking.
"You're so mean, Alice." he says, faking tears.
"Shut up. Come on, let's go see what rides they have." I said, grabbing his arm and basically dragging him toward the rides.
They had gone all out for this fair. You could tell they weren't just a little beach town. This place had some money. There was a ferris wheel, a huge roller coaster, a swing ride, a tea cup ride, and a lot more. I dragged Kyoya toward the teacups first.
"Really? This one?" he asks.
"Yep. I've always loved these." I say, pulling my phone out so I could mess with it while we waited.
I changed the ring tone to a song I found called Her Name is Alice by Shinedown. I bought it for obvious reasons.
"What'd you change it to?" Kyoya asks, looking over my shoulder.
"None of your business!" I say, just to bug him.
He pulls out his phone and presses a key. My phone starts ringing.
"I invite you to a world where there is no such thing as time,
And every creature lends themselves to change your state of mind.
And the girl that chased the rabbit, drank the wine, and took the pill,
Has locked herself in limbo to see how it truly… feels.
To stand outside your virtue,
No one can ever hurt you.
Or so they say.
Her name is Alice, Ali-"
I pressed ignore. I had no idea it would go on so long. Kyoya was chuckling at me and I stuck my tongue out at him. He laughed and I smiled.
"They make such a cute couple." someone whispered.
I turned to correct them but Kyoya made it first.
"Why, thank you." he said to the girl who had spoken and gave his hosting smile.
I glared at him and punched him hard in the shoulder.
"Ow, what was that for?" he said, annoyed and rubbing his shoulder.
"What do you think?" I growl.
"Better to just let them think what they want to right?" he asked, smirking.
"No need to encourage them though." I say as we get into a bright blue teacup and I grab the wheel.
As the ride starts, I spin it faster and faster and then hand it to Kyoya. He keeps spinning it at about the same speed and I throw my hands up in the air, laughing hysterically. My hair is whipping around into my face and blinding me. I hear Kyoya laughing and brush my hair out of my eyes to see him grinning like a madman. I start laughing again and throw my hands back up for the last minute of the ride. When we get off, laughing and stumbling, my hair in my eyes and his glasses askew, everyone is staring at us. I fix my hair and he fixes his glasses, and I let him pick the next ride.
"The roller coaster." he says, pointing at it.
"Yay!" I say and run over to it, leaving him to follow me.
There isn't a line this time so we hop in to the only car left, right in the front. The coaster starts, catapulting us into a loop. I threw my hands up and whooped in excitement. Kyoya followed my example and soon the ride was over. We were laughing crazily when the hosts ran up to us.
"We found a karaoke stand! Come on we want to hear Alice sing again!" Hikaru said.
"Only if you all sing too. Every one of you." I say pointedly.
They agreed and we ran over to the deserted little stand. The owner was more than happy to take our money and let us dominate it. We put the songs on shuffle and they made me go up first. I walked up on the little platform thing and waited for the beginning of the song. When it came, I smiled because I knew this song.
Kauru's POV
She started to sing as soon as the words came up on screen.
"Trippin' outSpinnin' aroundI'm undergroundI fell downI fell do-ay-ay-ownI'm freakin' outWhere am I now?Upside down and It can't stop me nowIt can't stop me no-oo-oo-owOhhhhh-ohhhhI-I-I-I I'll get byI-I-I-I I'll surviveWhen the worlds crashing downWhen I fall and hit the groundI will turn myself aroundDon't you try to stop meI-I-I-I I won't cryI played the gameBut I can't stayI've got my head on the straightAnd I'm not gonna changeI'm not gonna cha-ay-ay-angeI won the raceKeep up with the paceTo chase the dayThat I start to playI-I-I-I I'll get byI-I-I-I I'll surviveWhen the worlds crashing downWhen I fall and hit the groundI will turn myself aroundDon't you try to stop meI-I-I-I I won't cryYou can't get in my wayNo oh oh ohI-I-I I'll get byI-I-I I'll survivedWhen the worlds crashing downWhen I fall and hit the groundI will turn myself aroundDon't you try to stop meI-I-I-I I won't cryI found myself in WonderlandGet back on my feet againIs this real?Is this pretend?I'll take a stand until the endI-I-I-I I'll get byI-I-I-I I'll surviveWhen the worlds crashing downWhen I fall and hit the groundI will turn myself aroundDon't you try to stop meI-I-I-I I won't cry

She finishes the song and her score come up on her screen.
"99!" she says.
"I don't think anyone can beat that… and besides, the fair is ending." the old man running the booth said.
"Fine, but I will get ya'll to sing. One way or another." she says, as we walk out of the tent.
Kyoya's POV
We're walking towards the exit when a paper flies up and hits Haruhi in the face.
"It's a flyer for the fair! It says they're gonna have fireworks!" she says, excitedly.
"When do they start?" Alice asks, grabbing the paper.
"Where are they held?" I ask, looking over her shoulder.
"It looks like over by the teacups, in a field. And they start in ten minutes!" she says, grabbing my arm and dropping the flyer, "Come on ya'll!" and starts dragging me and Kauru, who was unfortunate enough to be standing next to her.
We get up there and find a spot by a tree. Or in Alice's case, up in the tree. As soon as we got over here, she grabbed a branch and vaulted so she was standing on it. I'll never know how she does that. But she looked out over the fading sky to see if there were any fireworks yet. It's a huge tree branch, so we all climbed up with her, sitting from end to end as follows: Mori-senpai, Hani-senpai, Haruhi, Tamaki, Hikaru, Kauru, Alice, and me at the end. Alice finally sat down and we found out it wasn't that huge. As, we watched the fireworks, I saw Alice snuggle into that jacket and I wrapped an arm around her. This earned me a glare from Kauru. Whatever. When the show was over, we all crowded into the limo and drove home.
I want to go see some fireworks now…
