I woke up screaming as I held my chest breathing heavy. I wiped away the tiny tears falling from my eyes. I looked at my wrists and felt my neck to see if it was cut but everything was fine, no blood at all. I quickly wiped my tears away and I whipped my head toward the clock on the nightstand. It was already 8!?

I went to the bathroom and fixed my makeup really quick to cover up the fact that I was crying. I brushed my teeth since my mouth still had nasty chicken throw up smell in it. I still had a weird feeling in my stomach and I wasn't sure if it was my nightmare or the chicken anymore. I took one more sip of the ginger ale and I did my best to suck it up and go see the show even with the painful cramps.

I walked to the main tent and I could hear Elsa all the way from outside introducing the show. I snuck in toward the back and stood in the corner watching till it was Jimmy's time.

"Welcome everyone! This is Elsa's Cabinet of Curiosities! First we have the 2 Pin heads! Salty and Pepper!" She said as Pepper and Salty came out juggling pins together.

I smiled and the crowd laughed and cheered and I even laughed a little at how cute they both were and at the fact that Elsa was caught in a baby blue suit which I thought someone like her would never wear.

"And next is the worlds tallest woman!" Amazon came out smiling as she showed off her height. I smiled back and when she saw me she waved as if waving to the crowd.

"And Desiree the three breasted woman with her strong man Dell!" Desi came in on Dells shoulders as he paraded around the stage.

"Along with Suzi the legless woman and Paul the man with seal arms!" Suzi moved to the stage as Paul followed as they both showed their absence of body parts. Paul even tipped his hat to the crowd thanking them with his little arms.

"Lastly for our final act, The famous Lobster Boy!" I was surprised Jimmy was already going on because Elsa had totally skipped over the twins and Ethel. Maybe they just weren't up to preforming tonight, after all the news I had to tell the twins and everything, they were hit pretty hard.

Everyone screamed and cheered. He got the mic from Elsa and announced to the audience.

"Hello everyone, tonight Im gonna sing y'all a little song." He said and everyone immediately got confused and quiet.

I smiled and when he saw me he smiled right back even winking too. He sang the song from practice and my did it sound better than ever. The way Jimmy moved and grabbed the mic made it ten times as better than it was at practice, he made it look like it meant something, there was more emotion to the song. Elsa just stood there rolling her eyes as he sang.

Once he finished the song he then showed off his hands to the audience, everyone was cheering and applauding, some even stood. I was clapping my hands as I smiled at how proud I was to see him preform.

"Thank everyone! Thats our show for today, hope y'all liked it and thank you!" Jimmy said closing the show as people got up and started leaving.

I stayed put so I wont get lost in the crowd as everyone filed out of the tent. As soon as people left the tent and the bunch was distracted by talking to one another I ran to the stage where Jimmy stood with the microphone. I ran into his arms and hugged him tight.

"Jimmy that was amazing even better than practice, you were great baby!" I said pulling away and kissing him quickly.

"I know! I cant believe I just sang in front of a bunch of people!" He said surprised.

"It sounded amazing Jimmy! So proud." I said still having my hands rest at the back of his neck as his hands rested on my waist, the rest of the bunch dispersed whispering and boosting about how great the show went. When they left it was just the two of us there on the stage. I looked at the microphone and got an idea.

"Wanna sing a duet?" I ask him as I went by the microphone stand.

"Sure, lets try it." He said standing close by me and the mic.

"You would think for all the days I've known you
That I would have you memorized by now
With every question answered,
Every single page turned
But you just keep me on the edge somehow

And every day with you is still a mystery
The sweetest story's falling from your lips
And I hold on to every word,
Like it's the first one that I've heard
It's the only time I've ever felt like this

After all this time you'd think I'd be
Used to the pull of your gravity
But after flying so high for so long, who would think
I'm still learning, still burning, still falling
Still falling..." I sang and I could see the look in Jimmy's eyes like he knew the song by heart, they way he looked at me was just amazing how I could see the love in his eyes.

"I still reach for your hand because I need it
Your kiss is still the spark that lights a fire
You're still laughing with me,
And we're still making memories,
I'm still a fool for you, and there's a million reasons why

After every late night street light drive
And every "Love you", "Miss you", kiss good night
Girl, your name is still my favorite
Always will be and I'm
Still wanting, still all-in, I'm still falling

Still falling,
Still chasing, still nervous,
Still reeling, dreaming about this

And after every sunrise holding you,
After all the crazy we've been through
Every day and every minute, girl, it's something new,
I'm still learning, still burning, yeah, still wanting, still all-in, still falling.

Still falling..." He finished the song and it was absolutely perfect. He put the mic down that he had taken from me after I had finished my part and just grabbed me spinning me into his arms just like the day of the picnic. I smiled from ear to ear just thinking about all we have been through together and how one thing built up onto another. We were there for each other through the bad and good, now look at us we were kids in love.

As I crashed into his chest and he held me I slowly pressed my lips on his not being able to shake off the smile on my face. He pulled away looking at me with those eyes of love and I was completely in love with him. I was still falling for him.
