Three

3 Walking to the fair was probably the most awkward walk of my existence. Trey finally let go of my shoulder once he realised the stiffness of my body. When he released his hold I could finally breath out and enjoy myself well kind of. We finally got to the fair after and I think I was more than impressed at the amount of people that were there. The last time I came to the fair I don't remember it being this busy. I recognised some people from school but there was loads more people from neighbouring schools and just people I'd seen in the town now and again. So you could probably guess the panic look on my face when Trey was walking up to one of the scariest rides in the whole park. Did I mention I was scared of rides and the fact that I have a fear of heights. Because I do and that's why I don't go to these fairs. Have you seen those videos online of rides literally throwing people off. I may be having a s**t time in my life but that doesn't mean I want to die. I was only meant to be here until ash met with that guy but that whole thing is ruined now because of this brown eyed boy. Trey and myself were the first ones here since the ride just opened so he was just talking to the guy who handles the ride. I wondered how he was able to talk about anything with complete strangers it blew my mind. When he finished talking he looks behind and sees my scared state. "Mia come on , don't tell me you're scared of rides " he waits for my reply but fortunately for him he doesn't get one. Well I wont then. "Because if you do I may have to rethink our friendship. " he says walking over to me. What friendship, I barely know the guy. He now stands so close to me that I can feel the heat of his body which is covered in basically all black. How so original, does he even wear colours because I've seen him around and I've never seen him wear anything but black. But I cant deny it, it looks good on him. Sighing deeply I step back just to create some distance between us. "I'm scared of heights " I admit quietly, I even looked around to see if anyone heard but luckily their was nobody close enough to even hear me. Thank god. Trey looks at me a smile threatening to break out. "Laugh away but I'm not going on that thing " I point at the monster ride behind him. Trey decides to just let out a chuckle which is considerably better then a full on laughing fit that I was scared he would actually do. "Nope not good enough let's go" he grabs a hold of my arm pulling me towards the death trap. I just continue to stare at him. Is he serious, did he not hear me do I have to tell him again. "Trey, I don't know if you heard but I said" Trey doesn't let me finish he just continues walking ahead. "I heard you perfectly, I just chose to ignore it" he says stopping briefly to look at my expression. How bloody rude, is that how he talks to all the girls. If it is I don't know why they love him so much. As I sit in the seat next to Trey I think to myself how the hell did I end up here. On a scary f*****g ride with Trey Logan. I could possibly blame all this on Ashley since she's the reason I came here yet she is too busy on a date with a guy I didn't even know existed. Does he even go to our school. Ashley spends as much time as she can with me but I know she has other friends that she meets up with occasionally. I don't mind really I really enjoy my own company. You could also call that being lonely. But I'd rather call it that. I think its important to enjoy your own company before you let others. Its all about selfcare and self love in my opinion. The ride begins to start and I couldn't even keep my eyes open. It's one of those rides where you continue to go up and then pause and then all of a sudden, your dropping at a 180 degree angle to the very bottom at high speed. We continue to ride up and I occasionally feel trey's leg bumping with mine it must be because of how rocky the ride is as we travel up. When we pause at the top I shut my eyes even more , if that's even possible. I feel Trey take my hand in his warm ones and squeeze them. I don't attempt to move mine because frankly it's beginning to calm down my beating heart rate. "Breathe Mia " he whispers, rubbing circles on my hand. His thumb feels light as he traces silly patterns on my hand. All of the sudden we're turning and I make the mistake of opening my eyes. I'm facing the world below us. Loads of people are roaming around the park , minding their own business. Lucky little shits, they're so lucky they get to have two feet on the ground and have no fear that they may just die. "Hey look that's Ashley isn't it " Trey breaks me out of my thoughts. Pointing to the two figures standing by a burger stand. I guess this is his way of distracting me. I look closer and smirk slightly when I see that she just slapped him for some odd reason. If they are going to become involved he better be prepared for the vicious attacks from Ashley. I have the bruises to prove it. Well looks like its working, I'm distracted. I was just looking down at them when suddenly the ride begins to move shooting us down to the ground at high speed. This ride is very familiar to oblivion at Alton towers but instead of going into a deep black hole. You just travel around for a bit, still at a fast speed. Once we level with the ground finally, Trey helps me get out my seat. He lifts up the barriers that was over my chest and takes a hold of my hand and pulling me out. I slowly manage to walk in once with him even though my legs are shaking so hard from the thrill of the ride we were just on. "See that wasn't so bad was it " Trey nudges me or more like punches me. I try my hardest not to show him my weakness. I don't think he realises how strong he actually is. "It was bad " I mumble making my way over to the food stand which is currently selling curly fries in ginormous volumes. I can hear him chuckle but he still follows. As I was ordering my fries I hear someone come up to Trey and start to talk to him. I turn and find a guy who looks like he's into the same clothes as Trey as I notice their oddly familiar outfits. Once he sees me he opens his mouth to speak but Trey stops him. "Toby this is Mia " my eyes widen in realisation, well it's nice to put a name to a face. "Mia, nice to meet you " he gathers me in his arms and picks me up slightly. Well that's a hug and a half. Tell me I'm wrong but why did Trey look a bit angry when Toby had his arms around me. Toby did prolong the time we hugged for but other than that nothing really happened. "Ashley is in the toilet I just thought I'd say hello " he motions to the toilets before facing back. "I see, well it was fun but I'm going to go home now " I break the little moment with a hopeful thought that I could actually get out of this place. I briefly say goodbye to both of them. I do notice Trey has a confused look as he sees me make my abrupt exit. He seems alright but I just don't think I can trust him. He's too high on the scale of popularity. Believe me popular people and myself don't get on well. Lets remind ourselves of what happened last time. I miss my old friend group but sometimes you need to distance yourself when dealing with hard times. I don't want to bring my bad energy to a happy time, now way.
