How Did We End Up Here

Chapter 11

Aveva's POV

I woke up to a slight and soft stroke on my arm. "Hey." he whispered. "We're here." he said. I tried to open my eyes but a black ribbon was over my eyes. I then realized as I slept Luke put the cover over my eyes.

"Screw you Luke." I spit. He laughs and rubs my arm before jumping up. "Come on let's see if you can guess it." he gushed.

I stumble on my feet as I try to get, its not easy getting out of a pick up truck blindfolded. Once my feet hit ground I caught my balance. "Where're the others?" I pout.

"Right here!" they all scream simultaneously. Tracing the sound I could tell they where in front of me. As we got closer I could smell cotton candy, sweaty men and rotten ice cream."Luke please don't tell me this is a carnival" I whine. They all know my deathly fear of carnivals ugh Morons.

They all giggle mysteriously and hushes were told. As we got even closer I could hear sounds of carnival music. Now I'm certain I hate this people. I peeled of the blindfolds and stared with my great blue eyes at the darkest most scary thing in the world.

I froze in my spot and my jaw dropped. Without a second thought I turned on my heels and started walking the other way. "No no no your staying right here beauty and facing that fear!" Ashton teases. I pout my lips and put my hand together silently begging we go back to my place.

It's sickening calling it my place. It's nothing but and over expensive extravagant home for a company owner and his stupid whore. No offense Judy.

"Please c'mon you guys, you know I'm terrified of those torture chambers, who's smart ass idea was to bring me here." I say glaring at all of them.

All the eyes point towards Calum and Abby, surprise surprise.

"You little lying, little sons of b-"

"Hey hey language!! there're kids in this carnival." Chloe screams.

My head turns over to this gorgeous lady and her husband, her daughter and son who look about 8. She gives me a warm smile and the man raps his arm around her waist and blows in her neck which makes her laugh.

Only if my parents could be like that. A sad flashback waves through me.

My mom my dad, Luke and the boys, all little all having fun until bam! twelve years old my dad met this lady called Judy, she was just his business partner but become more over the years. I watched my mom and dad fight and scream all the time. I tried blocking them out with head phones but nothing can drown out the shoutings of your parents.

All I wanted to do now is drown my sorrows in alcohol never to be fished out again.

"Aveva?" Michael said snapping me out of my trance. "Sorry what?" I ask blinking my eyes and shaking my head to get my parents out of my head.

"Do you wanna go?" Luke asked concerned. I give him a weak smile and rest my arm on his shoulder. "We drove 6 hours here all for me, don't worry I can handle the heat" I say in a rocky voice. Luke grabs my hand and leads me into the Carnival.

Here goes nothing.

"Can we go on that one Callybooboo?" Abby mocked pouting her lips, clasping her hands and staring up at her boyfriend. He glared at her and ran his hands through his hair. "For the last time, please stop calling me that!" he snaps. She laughs her head off at him until he brings out his phone and shows her a picture of her sleeping with her mouth open.

"You wouldn't!!" she gushed trying to snatch the phone from his hand but he raised his hand at full length which she obviously could not reach.

Boo for short girls.
