11-Step Right Up!

After some discussions about tastes in music, movies, books and everything else, we arrived in Port Angeles. The fair was being held in the center of town, so it was easy to find. The streets were roped off, and stands were everywhere. I also saw a few rides and games.

We met up with the rest of the gang and decided to go on one of the rides first, then decide what to do from there.

We all stood in line in front of the spinning, flipping, flying rides. Three people to a seat thing, but Alice refused to ride. She said she'd throw up.

"Remember last time Bella!" She whined.

It was about a month before they left. I was 12, she was 13 and there was a hospital fair going on to raise money for the children's ward.

"Come on Alice! Nothing's gonna happen! Let's just ride!" A 12-year-old me begged.

"NO! I don't wanna!" Alice whined.

I somehow managed to convince her to ride the little coaster with me after about 20 minutes of pleading. Unfortunately....she ended up getting very sick, and we had to take her to Carlisle so he could get her some anti-nausea medication.

"Told you Bella! I'm never doing this again!"

"hehe, Yes Alice. I do remember. You don't have to ride then!" I gave her a quick peck on the cheek, and went onto the ride. Jasper stayed with her so she wouldn't be lonely. Emmett and Rose rode together and I sat with my guys.

It was awesome!! The ride spun us all around in a circle, while moving up and down and each individual cart thing did flips. It was crazy!! I stumbled off the ride with a funny grin on my face. Edward had to catch me before I fell.

"Wooh! Let's do that again!" Emmett said, and Rose agreed. So they went back in line while the rest of us went off to the games.

"Come one, come all. Step right up and test your luck! You there" the man in the booth pointed to Edward, "why don't you test your skills and win the pretty lady a prize?" he coaxed, showing edward the basketball. Edward played the difficult basketball game, and managed to win me a stuffed bear. I named him Karl. He was brown with a big bow around his neck. Josh won a stuffed dog for his girlfriend at the dart throwing game. Emmett and Rose met up with us after they rode two more times, and we all went together to get our faces painted! Okay, really immature, but FUN!!!. Alice got a unicorn with glitter, Rosalie got a rose. Emmett got a grizzly bear and Josh decided to just get some random Chinese symbol meaning something silly. I got some butterfly wings framing my eyes and Edward let me talk him into getting a lion on his cheek. When we were all done with that we decided to explore some more.

"Oh guys! Awesome idea LOOK!" Emmett cried pointing to a small box a few feet away.

"Yea! Looks like fun Emmett! Think we could all fit?" I asked, letting the challenge seep in.

"Hells yea! Come on guys! Let's go!" We managed to somehow squeeze all of us into the small photo booth AND have the pictures come out slightly okay. Then each couple took pictures, and I got some of me and Josh, then me and my three guys. It was all really fun, and made some great mementos.

When it started to get dark we decided to get some food. Carnival food is awesome, and greasy, and gross at the same time, but we all ate it. We payed games some more, and went shopping a bit. Alice found some cute vintage dresses for us and we gor some matching jewelry. The guys found a place that sold old bang t-shirts and records. I found some that I wanted and Edward insisted on buying them for me. Josh got some stuff for his girl and when we were all done, we sat down on the grass to wait for the fireworks.

They were amazing too. All the pretty colors, and the band in the background made it even better. Edward sat next to me, and we kissed a bit. He knew I didn't want to ignore Josh, so he didn't have it turn into an inense make-out session. He's so sweet like that.

Edward drove Josh and I back home, and then went back to his house with Alice, Rose and Jazz. We were meeting up tomorrow to go to La Push. Quil and Seth met Josh during Christmas, and wanted to see him again.

We are going cliff diving!!
