Tickets To Neverland

Chapter 4: Semi Baby Daddy and Butt Grabbing?

I was walking back to Pixie Hallows to meet up with Jace and Ava. Jace had his back to me while Ava who's extremely hyper right now was jumping around him. I don't know why Jace was so moody when Connor came to talk to me but I decided to cheer him up. I walked on my tippy toes ready to pounce until Ava caught me. I put my finger to my lips as a sign to be quiet. She obediently nodded and started jumping around again so there's no suspicions. I begin walking on my tippy toes again and right when I was about to jump, he turned around, grabbed my waist, and gave me a threatening look while talking on the phone rather angrily.

Oh jumping pancakes! I crossed my arms, pouted and stomped my foot like a child. How did he see me? Where did my detective ninja turtle skills go? Ah well, time to eavesdrop on his convo. He's already on the other side talking harshly into the phone. I did not want to be caught while he's still mad but curiosity got the best of me. I had to find an excuse. I tried to find something on me, so I can throw it over in his area as an excuse to listen. Dang it!

I don't have anything! I looked around some more and found a little boy hiding behind the large pink cotton candy. Before taking a bite of the sweet candy floss goodness, I already snatched it away from him and threw it all the way across Jace's direction which landed a few inches away from him. I scurried over until I was a few feet a way from him so it was still clear to hear what he was saying but not where he could see me. I hid behind a fat dude looking over his shoulder to get a clear view.

"Watch your next words. Now, I'm going to make this simple for you." Jace sneered.

I was still behind the man listening intently to the phone conversation until the chubby guy turned his head, gave me a dirty glare and left me stranded and exposed to the open. Why are people so disrespectful these days? Can't someone casually use a stranger to shield themselves from being caught eavesdropping on a convo without being glared at for goodness sake. I tiptoed over to Jace and slowly bent down to grab the cotton candy to get a closer hearing.

"I don't care. You better have it by tomorrow. Do you understand?" he scowls into the phone then hangs up.

What the heck was he talking about? He turned around raising his eyebrows in a questionable manner looking at me who's still halfway bent towards the ground. I quickly scooped up the candy, standing up and showed him my excuse.

"I accidentally dropped my cotton candy over here so don't mind me. I'll be over there with Ava and Alice from wonderland. Toodle loo." I said sheepishly.

"Sure you were. It's totally reasonable to drop your cotton candy twenty feet away from where you were standing." he stated sourly.

"I'm glad we're on the same page." I nodded.

He rolled his eyes like an immature moody pig then grinned like he just got a puppy for his birthday. Are you kidding? Wasn't he just a moody prick a second ago? Dude, make up your mind! He's even worse than me when it's my time of the month!

"By the way fairy floss, nice ass."

"Not nice your face" I stick my tongue out. Yeah, like I was really gonna blush and melt under his feet because of some pervy hormonal comment. "And fairy floss? Really Axton?"

"Yeah that's your nickname from now on. You can call me Axton all you want, but I like the name fairy floss. Don't you?" he grins devilishly.

"Whatever, let's just get Ava and hit the rides."

"Can we ride the tea cups!" Ava pleaded eagerly and pointed to the swirling tea cups.
