Scarborough Fair - The Rest of It

  1. Okay guys, here's the rest, it's gonna be kinda long.

    When I awoke the next morning, there was music in the air. Carnival music. I opened my wardrobe and picked out a nice sundress with flats and a beach hat. I walked out of my room to find my younger brother, Jacen, growling at my parents' feet, waving a paper and begging them to let him go.
    "Fine!" my mother said, "but only if your sister will take you." Immediately, my brother turned around and joined a me with pleading eyes. I smiled,
    "Alright." I said. Jacen jumped up with glee and ran to his room, throwing on some clothes suitable for being outdoors. He grabs my hand and pulls me outside. "Wait!" I yelled, "I have to get my purse!" I went back to the door an my dad tossed it to me. "Thank you." I said, walking away.
    "Be careful!" My mother called. I nodded and started walking up the hill with my brother.
    "Thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!" he yelled excitedly. "Thank you so much Grace!" I laughed and nodded,
    "You're welcome." He led me me up to the schools. "We are we going?" I asked, confused. "Aren't the carnivals at the American Legion?"
    "Not this one! This one's different! It's after Labor Day instead of before, and instead of at the American Legion..." he paused.
    "Yes, what is it?" I asked.
    "It's in the woods behind the school!" he jumped up in excitement. My eyes widened in curiosity. "Come on!" he yelled, running ahead. I quickened my pace to catch up with him. He stopped at the edge of the fence and waited for me to catch up.
    We walked behind the school to the edge of a big ditch. I could hear the carnival music in the distance and I looked at the forest, regretting picking out a dress. We walked down into the big ditch to the edge of the forest. Jacen ran to a small path that had been cleared.
    "Through here!" he shouted. Thank God it's cleared, I thought. I followed him down a long, curvy forest path into a large clearing. Jacen smiled, grabbed my hand and almost pulled me off balance.
    I looked around in wonder and enchantment. Jacen laughed happily, waving to his friends, and pulled me towards the games. I handed him some money so he could play with his friends and I walked around.
    Without hardly searching at all, I had found my favorite ride. The Ferris Wheel.
    I walked to the ticket stand and looked at the sign above it. Scarborough Fair; it read. I bought enough tickets to get on the Ferris Wheel and walked back over.
    I waited patiently as the line inched forward. When it finally got to me, I handed the man the tickets and sat down on the seat. I started getting myself ready when the man looked at me and asked,
    "Do you have a partner?" his accent was Italian.
    "Pardon me?" I asked.
    "Do you have a riding partner?" he asked again.
    "Um, no sir." I replied.
    "You can't ride without a partner." he turned around, "Does anyone want to ride with this pretty little lady?" he called out.
    "Oh, no...." I started to say, shaking my head. Before he could hear me a young man maybe two years older than me stepped up. I had never seen him around town before.
    "I'll ride with her." he had said. He had the smoothest, sweetest voice I had ever heard in my life. He stared at me before sitting down and gave me a lop-sided smile. His hair was a beautiful honey blonde, darker than mind and curly and, his eyes were royal blue. It was strange. I had never seen anyone with blue eyes as dark as his.
    I noticed, as he pulled the bar down over us, that he hadn't given the man any tickets. I looked at the man and he rolled his eyes at the boy, starting the ride.
