Chess: The Next Move

Chapter 11: Ferris Wheel

It was the day of that carnival down near Echo Park. It's funny how almost everything happens at Echo Park.

Bea Bianca is flying to Georgia to see Calum. Sweet. If Liam had a long distance project, i would fly any day just to see him.

"The ferris wheel looks fun!" Liam yakked just like a little kid.

Liam loved carnivals. Ever since he was younger, he would always go to carnivals near his home and come back with stuffed animals or cotton candy. Rarely, he would come home with both.

He said he hasn't been to a carnival in 2 years. It's not really a long time, but if you've been going since you were 2 and you're 33 now, it's a pretty big deal apparently.

"It sucks how Bea Bianca is gonna miss this carnival," Cherry reminded.

"Yeah, but hey at least she gets first class plane ride!" Morgan suggested this would be a happy thing.

It's true. At least she gets that.

I'm not really excited for this carnival. I just wanna lay down in my bed and watch reruns of Smallville or Sailor Moon. I would have a pint of cookies and cream ice cream by my side. Hot Cheetos is a must.

However, I'm going to the carnival for Liam.

Liam makes me super happy. It's like the type of happiness JJ and I had. JJ and I would probably still be together (or at least married) by now if he hadn't lied to us. If he wasn't murdered, too.

Liam is all i have left. There's literally no other guy i wanna be with. Liam is the one.

"It's really interesting how Jen and Liam and Marissa and Tyler are together, when they're each ten years apart," Audrey announced. "It's cute."

We date our true loves who are ten years older than us. True friendship.

Bea Bianca FaceTimed us from the plane.

"Hey BB!" I greeted. " How's your flight?"

"It's ok so far. I'm about to land but it's gonna be 15 minutes late."

"Why?"

"Air traffic."

OH I HATE THAT!

Air Traffic is basically where airplanes accidentally have the same landing time and they have to sort things out by letting three plains at a time go.

It's one of the most funniest phenomenal things I've ever seen.

I've been on air traffic once. It was hilarious, I'll tell you that.

You don't usually see that around the U.S. It's usually only in Los Angeles or the Philippines.

It first started in the Philppines.

Anyways, I'm gonna try to enjoy the rides or booths at this carnival. I know Liam would love it even more if I enjoy it.

And who knows? He could buy me food :)

It's funny that this is a Valentines Day carnival and none of us cared about the "Valentines Day" part.

Liam went to the cotton candy line. Marissa and Tyler had their own agenda at the "Hit the Gopher" machine. Audrey and Morgan went to the kiddie coasters because they barely rode coasters when they were younger, and they wanna start from the bottom to the top. Cherry and I went to the skill crane with the stuffed animals.
