Halloween Night
The bus rolled to a stop in front of a shifty-looking archway. It was
rickety and rusted over, and I could barely read the writing. Beneath it
was an old black and blue-striped ticket booth with a bored-looking
teenage girl inside. The traveling carnival was small and, in my opinion, not
worth the thirty-minute ride to get here on a smelly, squished charter bus
full of rowdy basketball players.
But Maddie made me promise I’d come with her since it was
Halloween, and Sunset University, where everyone finally started college
courses last month but me, was going out for the night. The basketball team
coach took out the big guns before the season started and bribed them to
bond with a free trip to the carnival. At one time in my life, I’d have been
excited, but now this trip just seemed like a chore. She said I needed a little
fun in my life, but something told me Maddie’s version of fun did not align
with my own right now.
I filed behind her closely, watching her blonde head bob down the aisle
of the bus while she bounced on her toes in anticipation. I honestly couldn’t
see what the big deal was. We’d gone to carnivals just like this one when
we were kids. They came through the state every year around this same
time. There was even a huge pumpkin patch and a hayride set up for the
children every Halloween.
Back in high school, my mom and dad had never let me go to things
like this, so when I snuck out, it was usually with Maddie and the guys I’d
known since we were just little kids. One of the guys would drive, and we’d
all gorge ourselves on candy, sodas, and weed until we puked our guts out,
only to do it all over again the next year.
I stumbled forward when something pushed me from behind, causing
me to slam into Maddie. “Oh shit!” she yelped, but then laughed as I
mumbled a half assed apology.
She snorted, shaking her head as she righted herself and kept shuffling
forward. I turned around, eyes already narrowed at the dirtbag behind me. I
didn’t even have to look to know who it was. I knew he was there, looming
over me as usual. I could smell his familiar scent, how sad was that? Not
cologne, but something like leather and aftershave.
Jason. One of four guys on this planet who I loathed with every fiber of
my mortal being.
Our eyes connected, and I had to reel in a flaming blush at the fact that I
had to crane my neck so far back to do so. My pale skin couldn’t hide an
ounce of the rushing blood to my cheeks. Jason was tall and more than easy
on the eyes. It pissed me off. He had mocha brown hair, smokey gray eyes,
and a smile with two small dimples on each side. His skin was the color of
almonds, and there was not a blemish to be found. I hated him. I hated those
dimples.
