Mystery Of The Masked Man [Completed]

12. Taking A Fancy To Carter.

Chloe's POV.

"You look so pretty" Tori was admiring me.

She had been in my room for the past 2 hours deciding what I should wear and then doing my make-up.

She dolled me up with red shirt and blue skinny jeans. And some makeup, which she addressed as the 'no-makeup makeup look'.

I kinda look pretty thanks to her.

Then we had a debate about wearing heels or converse. And I won and went for my black and white converse.

He showed up on time and Tori said that very rare guys show up on time hence I should feel special.

Tori and her philosophy.

First I was kinda being rude to him but I thought it is of no use. I was at the fair yeah without Tori but I wanted to enjoy. And then I gave up the attitude and tried to get along with him.

The fair was beautiful.

Walking towards the fairground was a thrill in itself - One that built with every step. The night was cool but dry; perfect for a smashing night out! The fair wouldn't be visible until we turned the final corner but already our expectations and the sheer suspense of it all were building to a peak. Sounds were already beginning to pour through the air, "Boom Boom Boom!" and laser lights were lighting up the clouds making them seem somehow unearthly and weird. The fair was shining with all the lights gleaming and glinting in the night sky. Every booth and ride was abuzz with excitement. We were going to have the time of our lives.

The fair was now packed with eager children, tugging on their parent's arms to get them a hot dog or let them go on the ghost train or... well you get the picture. Gambling dads bet on the 'test your strength games' and anxious mothers kept a viselike grip onto the utterly bewildered children by their sides.

We decided to get on the roller coaster first, okay, so I might have a bit of fear for the roller coasters, but it's fun so I was gonna ride it anyway.

After waiting in the row for 5 mins, we got locked in and shortly after that I started freaking out a little second guessing my decision. At that instant the guy said 'on the count of three" and he began counting.

One

Two

'Three' everyone said in chorus.

And I was like shit.

Next to me Carter had his hands up in the air shouting out in excitement and I was here with wide open eyes of the fear that I was going to die.

I couldn't scream, I am sure there is some sort of mechanism for it that if you are on a fast roller coaster, you won't be able to speak or something. God knows.

Surprisingly, it was about less than a min. As it stopped, I got off as quickly as I could.

"Awhh pretty princess was scared" Carter taunted.

"Noo I wasn't, it was fun" I replied.

"You scared of speed??" He asked.

"No," I answered.

"We are here to enjoy right, which ride will be our next stop ummmm drop tower" he said after sometime.

Drop tower is a tall tower with passenger seats. First, they go up fast, then stop in the middle, then again move up and then it suddenly comes down. I haven't been on it before and I wasn't even planning too.

I am too scared of the height.

"You scared of heights too??" Carter asked.

"No," I said promptly.
