Back with another chapter! Let's get to it!
~Similar Differences~
I woke up with the sun glistening through the window and the wind hitting the window. It looke like the perfect day. Perfect for a carnival! I got out of bed and went into the bathroom. I brushed my teeth, washed my face, and headed towards my closet. I picked out the outfit from yesterday. I headed back to the bathroom to put my hair up in a messy bun and put on my makeup. I walked downstairs to be greeted by the delicious smell of bacon my mom's chef made for me. I also noticed pancakes and eggs. I grabbed the syrup and poured it all over my bacon, pancakes, and eggs. I was weird like that. After I finished my breakfast I checked my phone.
Zander: Meet at Carnival at 12:00 with an attachment of where the place was.
I checked the time now. It was 11:00. I would leave at 11:43.
Me: Ok thanks, can't wait.
I walked around the house. I wondered whatr life would be like if we didn't move here. Sure there would be ups to that, but there would be valuable downs to it to. I thought about life before we left Virginia.
~Flashback~
"Brielle I'm going to miss you so much" I said hugging her. We were about to leave to California. "Well don't worry, I'm just a phone call away!" she said picking up my bag and putting it in the trunk. She smiled. I hugged my cousin again. I had other friends to but Brielle was always there for me when things got rough. Auntie Deranivie helped mom out with her designing job. Now the Deranivie had a valuable client who had to expand their resources in California. As I got in the car I now saw Auralen and Brielle waving bye. I touched the car window. I had so many memories there, but now as I left them there, I felt a sadness and emptiness that was like a whole in my life.
~End of flashback~
I thought back on that moment of emptiness and now felt complete. I had friends here and I was ready to move on to making memories. I sighed and looked at the time. 11:43 "Perfect" I thought as I headed out the door and got into my car. As I drove to the address Zander had given me I saw Nelson and Kevin heading in. 'Hey guys!" I shouted as I got out my car. I rushed up to them. "What's up Kiera?" Kevin asked. "Not much, where are the other guys?" I asked. "For all we know they could be dead, gone, Buried in the deep seas known as the Bermuda triangle" Kevin said dramatically. "Or they could be inside waiting near Ferris wheel" said Nelson looking at his phone. "Or that" Kevin said. I laughed. As we headed inside I saw Stevie and Kacy trying to win a game and Zander looking around. I decided to sneak up on him from behind by going all the way around the game booths. "Where is Kiera?" Zander asked. "She's righ-" Kevin started. "Well she was with us" Nelson said. Then Kevin saw me. Dang it! Zander turned around but not before I closed his eyes with my hands. "Is that Kiera?" he asked. "No it's your diabolical twin!" I said removing my hands. Stevie and Kacy came over. "So what rides are we riding?" Nelson asked. "I don't know about you guys, but cute senior twelve o' clock!" She exclaimed. "Got to go!" she said as she trailed off. I grabbed Stevie's arm so it was linked. "We are going to go ride the Expedition!" I said as I dragged her off to her doom! The expedition was the scariest ride ever here! It looped you around two times and then you had to go backwards the whole thing! Stevie and I waited in line until it was our turns along with six other people. As the worker tightened our seat belts I looked at the people coming off the ride. "Stevie?" I asked. "Yea?" she answered. "I'm having second thoughts!" I said as we watched a grown man puke in the garbage can and two girls run to the bathrooms "Me too!" she shrieked as the ride started. After the first loop we were ok but after the second and going backwards we were ready to just jump off the ride. When we got back to the ride's entrance we saw Zander and Kevin getting ready to go on. "Where is Nelson?" I managed to say. "He was too scared to go!" Zander said. Stevie and I looked at each other. "Smart boy!" I said. The boys looked at each other and screamed as the ride began to move. Stevie went to find Nelson while I decided to go to the bathroom. Thank god I didn't look a hot mess. My bun just had a few strands coming out, but it made it look better now that I thought about it. As I stepped outside I bumped into a taller blonde-haired guy. "I'm sorry" he said. I looked up to see bright blue eyes. They were mesmerizing. He looked about my age. "It's ok" I smiled. I looked to the side to see Zander. He wasn't smiling or anything. In fact he looked sad sort of. He had his hands in his pockets waiting for me I think. I walked towards him and he smiled a little. "Ready?" he asked. "For what?" I asked back. "Well I remember you promising to go on a ride with me, and it'll have to be your last one since it's almost closing time. I looked at the time. 9:20 and the park closed at ten. "Ok, let's go!" I said enthusiastically. He led me to the most famous ride at most carnivals. The merry-go-round. I laughed at his childish choice. As we gave the man the last of our tickets and got on. We sat in the big red chairs. I watched at the horses went up and down. I laughed. Then he got up, took my hand and put me on a horse. He got on the one next to me. I giggled, resting my head on the pool that came up from my horse. He copied my action. The whole ride we stayed like that, with him weirdly staring at me, and me trying to hide my face. When the ride was over he took my hand and lead me towards the Ferris wheel. "But I though-?" I started until he put his finger over his mouth and led me on the ride. Before we were all secured and everything fireworks began to start and he smiled as he looked at them before he got in. As we rode to the top we stopped. We weren't at the very top. We were two away from it but we had a perfect view of the fireworks. I looked at him now as he looked like he was struggling to do/or say something. I was about to say something but he leaned in and then I realized what he was about to do. The whole thing made sense to me. But as I thought about how everything made sense his mouth was already against mine. Talk about perfect moments because as soon as that happened fireworks came into the sky. He pulled away slowly to see a smiling me staring up at him. He moved a piece of my hair out from my cheek. Even just that little touch sent tingles. As we got off the ride we saw the guys playing a basketball game, Kacy and Stevie competitively trying to shoot as Nelson and Kevin rooted for them. Then it happened. We heard shooting. Everyone started screaming as we ran towards our cars. "Where are we going to go?" Kacy asked from her car across from mine. "Follow me!" I shouted as I started my car. I lead them towards my house. They didn't want to go home to tell their parents that they went to a carnival where they heard shooting so I offered a sleep over at my place. Even if my mom wasn't gone she'd still allow it since there was a shooting. As I parked so did the three cars behind me. I got out of mine to see five pairs of faces in awe. "This is your house?" Kacy asked excitedly. "Yea?" I answered. We walked in through the front door to be welcomed by Theresa the maid. She was a nice older lady. I showed them around an eventually we ended in the guest bedrooms hall. They were all very excited to pick out their rooms. I gathered everyone around the lounge so we could have a more comfy meal. As we ate looking out the panoramic window I sighed. "Besides the shooting, best night ever!" Kevin said excitedly. We laughed. I turned on the TV only to see the news on the shooting. The man on the screen was the same man I bumped into earlier. Blonde hair spiked in the front and blue mesmerizing eyes showed on the screen of the man who disturbed what was a "Fun and harmless night for family's and teenagers all around Los Angeles". Zander and I Exchanged glances. I flipped onto the Jimmy Fallon late night show. As the show wrapped up everyone decided to go to their rooms. I stopped at Zander's. I was about to knock but he had already opened up the door and was hugging me. I was surprised at first but I just hugged him back as he kissed my forehead and pulled me into his room. There was a desk that had a perfect view of the window which over looked the city. As he sat down in the chair I sat on the desk. We just stared out into the busy rushing city outside us right now.
