Disclaimer: Roxy and her brother are mine. Thats all. Sadly I own nothing else in this story.
Chapter 5
Roxy! How could you ever think I don't care about you! You my little sister and I love you! I only didn't stop her right then because I was so shocked at what she had said. That's why I was coming to your room. I was going to talk you into staying, but then I found your note and you had left already. I told the family about the not I found. Sam didn't seem to upset. Mom and dad were upset, but then dad left for work and mom went to play tennis, they have such short attention spans! So who was picking on you at school? I want to get them expelled for making your life hell! I figured you wouldn't come home, but I just want to know that you're safe and taken care of. I'll send you anything you need if you give me an address of maybe a hotel or somewhere you can stay for a few minutes! Anyway, stay safe and don't get in any fights!
Love and miss you!
Justin
I could feel tears forming in my eyes. I guess Justin was the only one who actually cared about what happened to me.
"What's that?" Evra said sitting down next to me
"My laptop?"
"No, I mean what's on your laptop?"
"An email from my older brother. The only person back home who cares about me."
"I care about you." He said putting his arms around me
"Yea but you weren't with me back home!"
"Tell me what happened. Like why did you leave?"
"You don't want to know that"
"Yes I do"
"No you really don't"
"As soon as I was born and my parents saw that I wasn't normal. They gave me away. I was adopted by an evil man who put me in a cage and made me feel like an unloved freak show attraction. People paid to come and laugh at me. Then Mr. Tall found me when I was 4, killed my owner, and brought me here to the cirque. I've been here for 13 years and I couldn't be happier!"
"Wow, that's awful! I'm glad you're safe now!"
"Now you tell me about you!"
"Ugh fine! Were I live, everyone is rich and well have you seen the movie Mean Girls?"
"Sadly, yes I have."
"Well my whole town was a bunch of plastics, the kids and the adults. Because I'm not 6'3", preppy, and a plastic slut, I didn't fit in and I was picked on by almost everyone and I had no friends. One night after I had had a really hard day I got into a huge fight with my older sister Samantha and she told me to leave and when I said I would, no one stopped me. So I packed up the few things I could and took off. The next day I went to a coffee shop and went on my laptop and saw that I had an email from my brother and that's when I found out that he cared about me, but I told him that I still wasn't coming back home. Later that day I went to get some dinner and I was short a few dollars and I saw Mr. Crepsley and Darren and asked them if they could help me out a little and then they brought me here and I feel more loved than ever!"
"Why would anyone want to pick on you? You're so sweet!"
"Because like I said, I was different."
"Well no one will pick on you're here."
"I know." I smiled and hugged Evra "Now let me email my brother back."
"But that means I have to leave you" he said frowning at me
"Evra your hammock is five feet away."
"Alright, alright I'll go." He said as he got off of my hammock. I stood up and gave him a hug "Um can I kiss you now?" he asked
"I think I would be ok with that!" I giggled. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he held on to my waist and he kissed me. "Ok Evra, I really need to write back to my brother now and you really need to get some sleep!" I said still holding on to him
"Ok. Good night." He said giving me one more squeeze, and then he went and collapsed into his hammock, and I wrote back to my brother
Wow, I guess you re the only one who really cares. If you got everyone who was picking on me at school expelled there would be no one left lol! Anyway, I'm safe! I found these wonderful people! I'm at a freak show called the Cirque Du Freak and the people here are so nice! I only spent one night on the street and then Mr. Crepsley and his assistant Darren found me and brought me back here! Then the owner of the Cirque told me that I'm telekinetic and pyrokenitic! It so awesome! Oh and I met this boy, he's 16, his name is Evra, he's half snake and we're dating! I'll ask Mr. Tall (the owner) I there is anyway you can send me stuff (he's kind of magic so I'm sure there is!) because I would love if you would send me care packages! Haha!
Love and miss you!
Roxy
I hit send and off my message went! I looked at my phone and it was almost 2:00 AM so I decided to get some sleep.
XxXxXxXx
"Roxy, Rooooxxyyyy. ROXY!" Evra yelled at me and I screamed and fell off my bed. "Oh good you're awake!"
"Yeah good whatever, now what do you want?"
"Whoa babe, no need to be nasty!"
"Sorry, I'm just tired."
"Ok well anyway get up and get ready! We have to pack up to go to our next stop!" He said. I looked up t him, he was wearing a black "Daytona Beach Bike Week" t-shirt and a pair of blue jeans, and his yellow-green hair was falling in his face.
"Ok let me go get ready." I said as a sat up. I went to the bathroom and pulled on a pair of dark blue jeans, a skin tight tie-dye t-shirt, and black converse. I did my hair and make-up and went to find Evra.

When I walked out to the breakfast area I found Darren and Evra sitting on a log eating breakfast, so I grabbed a plate and went over to them
"Hey boys!" I said sitting down next to Evra
"Hey!" Evra said as he put his arm around my waist and kissed me on the cheek
"If y'all ever start making out in front of me, I will make fun of you. Just a warning." Darren said
"Ah children how are you this morning?" Mr. Tall asked as he walked up to us
"We're good! How are you?" Darren responded
"I am good!" He said "Now have you told Roxy how today is going to work? She has never been with us on a pack up day!"
"No, we were going to do that after breakfast."
"Ok then, have a good day!" He said walking away from us
"So what are we going to have to do?" I asked
"Well," Evra said "we basically clean up our tent and pack up all of our stuff and put it by the van we will be riding in. Then we help everyone break down tents and everything and we load the vans with everything except the bags and trunks because we need those for the show. There will be one tent left up with a curtain down the middle and one side is for the girls and one side is for the boys. Then we will put on the show, break down the dressing room tent after everyone had changer into road cloths and then we load every ones bags and trunks and we take off!"
"Wow, that's a lot!" I said "Wait who's driving?"
"Well, Mr. Tall because he's the leader and he knows where we're going, he'll drive the big van with most of the freaks on it. Then Mr. C will drive because he stays up all night anyway, he'll drive the van with Truska and Darren and all the luggage. Rhamus will be the last driver because he can drink more coke and coffee then the others, so he'll drive the equipment truck."
"Oh, ok, well then lets go break down some tents!"
AN: So what do you think? Roxy is going to preform her ac in the next chapter! Yay! I think I might bring in and OC for Darren, but I'm not sure about that yet! Anyway y'all would be the most amazing people on earth if you reviewed!
