That Other World

a fantasy-adventure-teen fiction

"Hey."
I turn around at the sound of a voice. I look up at a boy around my age with shiny emerald eyes and brown hair that is pushed out of his face. I hesitate.
"Uh...hi," I answer, lost in the boy's eyes. I've been attracted to people before, but never so incredibly speechless like this. Seriously? I sound like a poet or something. Dumb brain. I blush as I automatically think of his name as Rollercoaster Boy.
He smiles and my heart beats a little faster. Ugh. Go away feelings!
"What's your name?"
"B-Brooke," I stutter out. Seriously? I stuttered? "Yours?"
"I'm Pheonix," Rollercoaster Boy says, smiling. "Hey can I take you to a secret rollercoaster?"
I can't stop a giggle coming from my mouth as he extends a hand. Stupid attractive guy. I take it and don't exactly care where he takes me. A few seconds later I realize he might be a murderer or something. You know, the innocent looking murderers that just turn out to be crazy psychopaths? Yeah, those. My smile instantly fades and I'm internally screaming.
