Chapter 9 : WHY GOD, WHY.

ENJOY :

*************************

"Dear god, out of all people, you want me stuck with him? Why him?" I asked god, then I raised my voice when god didn't answer, "HUH, ANSWER ME GOD, WHY HIM?"

"Stop, you're killing me." Aaron said, gasping for breath because he's laughing so hard.

Ofcourse he is laughing and smirking. I always have to be the miserable one who isn't.

"Shut up." I said, glaring at him, before I remembered he can't really see me since it is all dark.

Why god, why?

Okay, so it all started when we reached the carnival, decided to play this stupid ass 'Hunted House' game.

Each two could fit into one of its 'cars' or whatever this thing that carries you is called. Apparently it isn't fast or anything because it doesn't have a seat belt. You just sit and it takes you around the 'Haunted House' where shitty non-scary creatures pop in your face.

How do I know it's shitty and non-scary? Well this is when it goes downhill.

When we got there, Aaron, the lil shit, insisted on taking the seat next to me. Which I really didn't want. But he kept on insisting and we all got sick of it so I agreed.

Bad decision. I know.

Each two has their own turn because only two could fit together.

Aaron and I got the last turn. So after everyone was finished, they gathered in front of the game and waited for us to finish.

The thing is, we never got to finish due to the fact that some random difficult technicalities decided to just take place in our turn and so the ride stopped somewhere inside this supposedly creepy house and the sounds disappeared and overall, everything just stopped.

Because I'm so lucky.

So here is how I ended up asking god about this.

Aaron, on the other hand, seemed to be actually enjoying this.

Because he has been saying alot of innuendos since we were trapped next to each other in the dark.

I'm not only upset about being stuck with the person I dislike the most, but also because I'm lowkey terrified. Even though we went halfway through this and all the 'ghosts' weren't scary, I was still afraid. And now that it has stopped, I feel like some creepy doll will hunt me down.

I don't know why I'm speaking aloud my thoughts but I randomly said, "I actually can't take this, man, I'm scared right now."

"Awww babe, just come close to me and I will hold you and make sure no one will come close to you." Aaron said in a sweet voice though I swear I can hear his smirk and wickedness.

Since I'm so sassy and mad, and this isn't the time for jokes, I replied with, "One, don't babe me, two, we are already super close, if I come closer, chances are I'll end up on the floor from your side, and three, WHY ARE YOU SO HAPPY?" I raised my voice at the last part. I mean seriously, why is he so cheerful?

"Damn babe, chill, I'm happy because we are together alone in the dark." Aaron said, before leaning in close and whispering in my ear, "Imagine how many things we can do together."

He. Actually. Whispered. That. In. My. Ear.

"Ew what the fuck, shut up already." I replied, disgusted.

Aaron let out a little chuckle before he finally stopped talking and we sat in silence.

We stayed like that for about two minutes and eventually I got sick of it. There isn't anyone helping us.

It's bad enough that we couldn't bring our phones in with us inside so we couldn't call anyone, I'm sure they noticed we're late by now, but I have no idea why the workers aren't here already, fixing the situation.

"Hey Ellie, I think I'm gonna keep walking straight forward till I reach the end of this thing." Aaron said.

"No, why, it's too dark anyways." I tried to convince Aaron.

Truthfully, I'm way too scared to be left alone or to walk around.

Yes, I'm eighteen, scared of the darkness in the Hunted House, so what?

"You can come along if you want." Aaron suggested.

"Are you kidding? I can't even see you right now." I replied.

"Alright, you stay here, I go." Aaron said and I felt him shrug his shoulder before actually getting up and I heard him land on the ground with a little thud.

I hate not being able to see.

Oh my god, I can't just stay here, it's too scary.

I can't see nor can I hear anything.

WHY GOD, WHY.

"You can still come along Oreo, it's still an option."

"No." I replied, scoffing, my ego taking over.

"Okay." Aaron said, his voice drifting further away.

Okay Ellie, think carefully.

Your pride or your life?

I'll choose my life, I guess.

"Aaron?" I called out.

"Yes Oreo?" He replied and I can tell he's a bit further away now.

"I'll come along." I sighed.

"Okay, come." Aaron said and I can imagine the smug look on his face.

"No, I can't walk whatever distance you want me to walk alone." As much as I hated to admit it, I did.

"Oh, you want me to come backwards, trying not to trip in the dark to get you?" Aaron asked.

"Yes?" I said.

"What's the magic word?" Aaron asked.

"Ughh seriously Aaron, just come back."

"Nope, magic word first." Aaron replied.

Little shit.

"Please?"

"No."

How is please not the magic word?

"Fries?"

"Close enough.."

"Ummm, cheese?"

"Yes, good job." Aaron said, laughing at his attempt to annoy me that worked per usual.

Cheese it is.

"And they say I'm extra." I mumbled.

"I'm here." Aaron said in a low voice, that would've sounded sexy to me if he hadn't touched my knee and scared me shitless.

"You could've given me a warning for godssake, I got scared." I said.

When I jumped off the thing that carries us through this shitty Hunted House, Aaron held my hand without any warning.

I don't know how he managed to find my hand in the dark, but I didn't mind it since I was scared and he was leading the way.

I stepped on his foot accidentally way too many times till we finally made it and got out.

After Aaron and I screamed at the workers for leaving us there, we decided it was enough fair games, trust me, we played almost everything, and by now we wanted to go eat somewhere.

We decided on McDonald's, I mean, casual, nice, and amazing.

Steve knew a McDonald's next to his house so we just drove there and we're now waiting for our meals.

"Can we please just take a minute to appreciate the french fries, I mean." Ethan said dreamingly.

"Yaaaaaaaaaaas, it's like you're reading my mind." I said to Ethan.

Laurel chuckled, "Well, today's been fun."

"By the way Laurel, Ellie and I were thinking about going to the mall tomorrow, would you like to come with us?" Rose asked Laurel politely.

Laurel's face lit up, I think it's because she doesn't have any friends besides the guys, which she had to become friends with for Joey.

I find that weird, she's such a beautiful and nice person, I absolutely loved her since the beginning.

And so did Rose, apparently.

Every girl needs to have another girl best friend, or else what is your life? I felt sorry for Laurel. Like, literally.

"Yes, I would love to, you sure that's not a problem, I don't wanna like, intrude?" Laurel said shyly.

"Ofcourse it's not, you can always hang out with us." I told Laurel with a smile.

Well, it was a good Friday.

Aaron texted me that night.
