The Heart of Cars

Chapter 20

I sit through the very long process of her straightening my hair and putting on pink and grey eye shadow along with eye liner, mascara, and red lipstick. I finally get to put my dress on and get to wait for Brittany to finish getting herself ready. She left her hair in curls and tied half of it into a ponytail. She used red eye shadow and a clear lip gloss along with eye liner, mascara, and blush. I watch her as she does the process over to herself. I look at the clock and see that it is now about 5 pm. It's been six hours of this! However, she did redo my hair like eight times. I lay on the bed only to be yelled at that it will ruin my hair. "Girls? We will meet you at the carnival Okay? Jo, your dad is downstairs to follow you when you're ready to go."

"Okay, thanks Brett." I go and start putting my clothes in my bag except for my stuff I need for tomorrow. I grab my black flats I brought from home and put them on. I grab my black bag that I use for a purse and put my cell phone, pepper spray, lighter, knife, my wallet, and my lipstick in it. I look over at Brittany and see she is all ready too with her silver gladiator sandals and silver clutch purse. I go outside the hotel room and turn off the lights. I make sure I have my room key then follow Brit to the elevator. I look around at the other girls in shorter dresses and longer dresses. They all look really nice and I can tell that they are excited to see their soul mates and I highly doubt any of them will deny their other halves. I sigh and we go outside past all the girls and their mom's. I see my dad in his car hanging out behind my car, out of the way of other cars. Brittany and I get into my car and start it up. I drive behind my dad and soon we get to the field where the carnival and festival will be held. I get out of my car and so does Brittany. I lock my car and walk over to my dad. "Say nothing." I say as he opens his mouth and smiles as he nods. He holds out his arms to me and Brittany and we take them. We walk to where the king and the other royals were. "Hey guys." I smile at them and Brittany goes to stand by her triplet older brothers. "Sup lady." I give Tyler a 'seriously' look. "What? You never actually dress like a girl so this is the only time we are actually sure, you are a girl." I smile at him and punch him in the chest. "Oww. See?"

"See what?" I tilt my head and grab Brittany's arm. "Come on. Let's go find some people that actually passed the first grade." She laughs and we wave at them as we walk towards the middle of the carnival. "Oh, I can not wait for next year! All these boys are soo cute!"

"Nah, only some." She gasps in mock horror. "Did you just admit you find some boys cute?!?!" I laugh and push her a little. "What boys do you think are cute Jo?"

"Certainly not you Jared." I turn around to see my best friend and his older brother. He laughs and gives me a hug. I hug him back then pull away to stay by Brittany. "Holy crap, a dress. I didn't believe you when you said she would wear one Sam." I laugh and roll my eyes. "Do you guys wanna join us in walking around?"

"Sure." Jared says as he walks up to me and hooks arms with me. "Sure, Jo." Sam walks on Brittany's other side so me and Brittany were in the middle of the four of us. I notice that Sam looks nice in his dark blue button down shirt and black church pants, which seems to be every guy's dress code for tonight. I look around to try to see if I can find Colton. I can't see him but I hear a beep that tells me I have a text. I open my purse and take out my android phone and unlock it. Where is boyfriend 2? I look over at Brittany and see she doesn't have her phone out. She must have put it away. I roll my eyes and don't look at the contact info before I text her back. No idea. Y? I put it back in my bag and watch Brittany. Her phone doesn't go off and yet mine does. You got it right. I'm not Brittany.

Me: Who are you then?

Them: Guess you didn't see my note.

Me: What note?

Them: I'll take that as a no. Have a fun night Princess. I look around but can't see anyone and notice the group is looking at me. "Sorry. Stupid people don't realize that it's 10." I put away my phone and we go walk around. We look at all the different booths full of random items and games. Britt moves so I'm next to Sam and she is on my left side. We walk and talk and soon go find my dad, who I was supposed to stay by all night.
