chapter fifteen carnival


summer was officially starting.

yesterday seemed like a blur to millie. it all happened so swiftly.

and after that day, she went home with the dorkiest smile on her blushing face like a teenage girl in a cliche romance movie after she went on her first date.

millie was buried beneath her blankets, as the sunlight seeped through her curtained window. she groaned slightly at the feeling of the sun in her eyes. she removed the bedsheets off her shoulders, and she stretched her slim arms, yawning afterwards.

millie did her daily routine; brushing her teeth, taking a hot bath.

although, she had a big plan today.

millie stood in front of her closet, and opened it, pulling out a white lace sleeveless romper, her white converse to match, and to top it all off, she placed on some gold hoop earrings.

and she was off to the boy who was always on her mind.

finn.


millie biked on the way to his house. and when she arrived, she grabbed the ladder beside the front door, knowing finn was not in his room, but on the rooftop, instead.

and millie was correct. she saw finn smoking a cigarette, sitting with his right leg bent up, and his left leg laid down on the metal surface.

"greetings, batman." millie caught finn's attention, sitting beside him. "hey, mills." finn smiles softly at her, "pass it." she reached her hand out, and finn lent her his cigarette, millie quickly inhaled it, blowing it out, small rings coming out from her glossed lips.

"i have something planned today." millie says with a wide smile, "what is-" she interrupted him, "you'll see. just get ready and bring the boys."


the car ride was annoyingly noisy.

finn was sleeping on the passenger seat, while millie drove. meaning caleb (on the left), noah (in the middle), and gaten (on the right), sat at the back of finn's pick up truck.

and of course that meant arguing.

"what the fuck? gaten farted!" caleb yelled.

"you're full of shit, caleb!" gaten snapped

noah groaned, annoyed with the two. "will you two shut up? i might kill myself!"

millie rolled her eyes, but then it widened at she saw the sight in front of her.

the three continued quarrelling, voices screaming as they overlapped, each other. until millie shouted, "guys! we're here!" and apparently that's all it took for them to quiet down.

finn woke up hearing millie yell, and when he rubbed his eyes, he spotted their destination.

the carnival.

finn could see the ferris wheel, and tons of roller coasters in view, lanterns hanged, and people in shades, dressed in colourful outfits.

to some people, the carnival was a paradise up close, or an escape from reality, somehow.

but whatever it may be, they were here.

millie luckily found a space to park in the car filled lot, and the gang got out all at once, looking at the place in front of them. gaten and caleb ran ahead, noah following behind them, leaving finn and millie behind.

"wow, the carnival?" finn was astonished. "yeah. why, don't you like it?" millie asked, a small frown on her lips. "no, no, i love it, it's just- thank you." he looked at her eyes with adoration. millie just smiled in return.

the five teenagers ended up riding a rollercoaster, which wasn't exactly pretty.

noah was standing up, gaten and caleb kept screaming at each other, millie almost cried, and finn laughed through the whole thing.

"woah, i'm dizzy as fuck." gaten muttered as they got off the ride, almost tripping as he held his head.

"so what's next?" caleb asked, "i think we should do bump cars." noah suggested, and the rest of the group agreed.

the four boys and one girl, approached the arena. all of them had their game faces on, as each of them got in the carts.

"y'all ready to fuckin' die?" finn asked as he buckled his seat belt, the rest following his action.

"i'm a bad bitch you can't kill me!" gaten yelled, and began to speed off, the rest following behind him, millie and noah going ahead of caleb and finn.

finn went for millie, who was just a few inches in front of him, he increased his speed and bumped millie's car. millie looked behind seeing finn, winking at her, with his famous smug smirk. "wolfhard." millie glared at him playfully, and finn bumped her car again, causing her to turn around, facing him.

"oh, you little fuck." millie narrowed her eyes at the curly-haired boy who laughed, and this time, millie was the one who bumped his car, finn jumped at the force, and held the edges of his car. "it's called revenge, asshole!" she yelled, giggling at him.

gaten, caleb and noah watched finn and millie from afar, laughing at each other, smiling as they looked into each other's eyes. and that caused gaten to ask: "are they in love or some shit?"

"probably." noah shrugged.



note    a friendship centred and boring chapter. but i'm gonna have three chapters for their day at the carnival.
