Carousel

The Carousel Waltz

Jamie's POV

"I always love riding the carousel Jamie, we should go" my friend Carrie tells me as we walk through the gates of the costal fair. Carrie always loved the Carousel, she thought that it would one  day bring her true love, another thing about her is she's a hopeless romantic that no one wants to date. If I wasn't gay I probably would want to date someone like Carrie she's sweet and nice but I don't know how it would work as she knew me pre transition, back when I went by  Julie. So we walk up towards the carousel and I see him the carnival barker trying to get us to go on the the Ferris wheel.

Billy's POV

"Roll up, roll up and ride the best carousel in all of Maine" I say as I look around at the people lining up to ride then I see a young couple and I decide to work my magic. "Well look what we have here a good old lovely couple how long you folks been together," the boy looks it at me and blushes "we're not a couple, I kinda swing a different way if you get what I mean". Of course I do I'm Billy Bigolow I go all ways and this boy he seems real cute so tonight I might try and go his way. "Well then young man roll up and take a swing to help me with the carnival".

Jamie's POV

I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing and then Carrie push's me towards the very attractive carnival  barker who might be about to bash me. But I don't entirely get that vibe from him as he starts to get my help he pulls back his sleeves revealing his massive bulging muscles, Carrie's in the background looking like she'll faint and he then tells me to get in the Ferris wheel and he later follows. "So just out of interest what way do you swing Mr Barker" I ask perfectly condescending as always he responds "call me Billy, Billy Bigalow tonight I was hoping to swing your way". I'm absolutely shocked I never thought I'd get a boyfriend in this small town but one this not on someone pinch me. "Well I'm open to swinging to you, my name's Jamie, Jamie Jordan," he gives me a flirty smirk. So as we go around on the Ferris wheel so he sits there flexing his big strong chest and looks at me starring then smiles. "You can touch it it doesn't bite" he says with a loseness you'd expect from a carnival barker. So I touch his chest and it feels just like I always thought a guys chest would feel the warmth and he puts his head on my shoulder. "Billy Bigalow, get down here now we don't want that sort of activity in this here establishment " an older woman screeches from the bottom of the Ferris wheel. Billy gets off on the end and leaves, I guess somethings are too good to be true. As we get off the ride me and Carrie face the elderly woman we now know goes by Ms  Mullin, both me and Carrie try to argue my case but she ends it saying that I shall never return to this carnival as long as she lives.

Billy's POV

After a long day working the Carnival I walk up to Ms Mullin's (Satan) office. "Now what you did up there was irresponsible Mr Bigalow, you hear me irresponsible I don't care what you do in your own time Billy but don't be doing it on my property". "Ms Mullin, I ain't doing anything worse than any other couples were doing why is it an issue" I ask her. "Oh Billy! You know why it's an issue it's because  you were doing it with man sucking fruit fly, we can't have that out parading on our streets," she says with a tone I've never heard before. "I know your upset your husband ran away to live with his male friend but that's no excuse to take it out on me" I say with an anger I've never used before. "How dare you disrespect me Boy! Why I'll have you out on the street this minute" "you can't fire me Ms Mullin because I quit." I say then I storm out into the world. Now I'm jobless and trying to chase a guy named Jamie, mother would be thrilled if she wasn't dead from influenza.
