"Chap 3- Worst Day Ever
Lights and carnival rides were everywhere. There were games and tents of all kinds. It was as if we were in a totally different place. The only similarity was that the only two life forms that I saw were me and Jimmy.
"Step right up. Hey, hey you ya wanna win your girlfriend something nice"? I jumped and whirled around to see a guy about 6'3" with shaggy brown hair and green eyes.
"Whoa there lil lady, sorry if I gave ya a scare". A scare? My heart jumped to my throat. It was a little more then a scare.
"No, hehe, I'm fine, but who are you?"
"I umm work at this here uhh carnival". I saw Jimmy raise an eyebrow as the guy at the stand didn't seem too sure of himself.
"Alright. Then can you explain why this carnival wasn't here a few minutes ago?"
"How about you win your girlfriend something nice", he said abruptly changing the subject.
"First of all, she isn't my girlfriend". Ouch. Nice way to break the ice. "And second of all, I'm not paying you any money or playing your stupid game until you tell us what's up and where our friends are."
"I have no idea what you're talking about. If you're not going to win your girlfriend anything, you might as well leave. Good day".
"Look mister, I'm not his girlfriend. If you don't fucking tell us what the hell is wrong with this god forsaken place, I'll fucking shove a stick so far up your fucking ass your stomach will bulge"! That'll teach him not to mess with Cindy Vortex.
"Calm down Cindy. Look if we play the game, will you tell us how all this got here"?
"No, Jimmy let's just go. He isn't going to tell us". I started walking away. To my surprise, Jimmy followed.
"You're making a very bad decision", I heard the fuck face at the game stand shout. I stuck my finger up at him as we walked down the line of stands.
"Cotton candy! Fresh cotton candy over here. How about you young lady, would you like some cotton candy?" Damn cotton candy, my weakness—but oh! It was the same guy from before.
"Look mister will you stop following us. We're looking-"
"Following you? I'm sorry sir, but I cant say I've ever seen you before", the man said cutting Jimmy off.
"Then explain why you look exactly like the guy at the other stand".
"I have no idea what you're talking about", he curtly spoke, repeating the same line as the guy at the previous carnival stand. It looks so good. What is with this place throwing my weaknesses at me?
"Jimmy, I want cotton candy", I whispered in his ear. He glared at me.
"Cindy, this isn't really the time-"
"Please", I stared at him with puppy dog eyes. When I say I luv cotton candy, I mean Luv cotton candy.
"How much?"
"It's a dollar sir". He bought the cotton candy and we started to walk off. The worker put on an evil smirk as I took my first bite.
"Good luck with that lil lady". I looked at him baffled.
"What ever, psycho". We started walking. When we were far enough from the man, I turned towards Jimmy and asked him what he meant when he told me good luck.
"I-I really don't know Cindy".
"I mean it's just cotton candy and it tastes fine. So well I mean I just I don't know".
"He's just a creep. It's fine". But it wasn't fine. I started feeling weird and I dropped the rest of the cotton candy. I leaned on Jimmy.
"What's the matter Cindy?" I stumbled out words and fell to the ground. I saw Jimmy standing over me and then everything went black.
