Chapter 10: This Wheel Is Rigged!!!
Bennett put me down, as Dominic did the same with Lynn. Oh yeah, and Declan just shoved Jordan off. "Ouch." Jordan said on the ground, holding his hand to his head. Lynn ran over to him. "You okay, dork?" Dork? Why'd he call him a dork? Because he acts weird? Probably it. "I'm fine, I think." "Oops." Declan said dragging the word. "Too bad so sad." Bennett said as he picked Jordan up. Jordan shoved Bennett off. "Get off me, coward." "I'm not even on you, and I'm not a coward." Bennett said calmly, well trying to keep his calm.. "You ran away from your dad and brother after your mom died, too scared to take care of some business." "Jordan!" I shouted, as I quickly ran in between them. "Let's just go inside of the circus okay?" I grabbed Bennett's hand, trying to keep him from punching Jordan. He squeezed my hand but then slightly loosened it. I looked up at him, seeing that he was glaring at Jordan.
I looked towards Jordan, seeing that Lynn was holding both of his hands, walking backwards as she lead him towards the circus. Jordan had a smirk on his face mouthing, 'You don't know how long I've been waiting to say that to him.' to Lynn. Lynn mouthed back, 'Jordan, I cannot believe that you'd say that to one of your best friends.. Your a disgusting jerk, you know that right?' As soon as she said that, Jordan blinked a couple of times, confused. "What? I didn't do anything!" He cried out, looking at Bennett. "Bennett, you believe me right?" Bennett looked away. "N-Naomi?" His eyes were beginning to water. "I didn't say anything right?" I had no response. What's going on? Wait, what if when he fell he just went crazy? I had no time to respond because we entered the circus.
We took a seat, right next to the exit. Jordan looked completely depressed. "Bennett." I said. I looked up at him. His eyes were really shiny, that or his were watering. I chose the latter, Bennett never cries. He looked down at me squeezing my hand. "What is it?" He asked. "He didn't say that- No, he didn't mean it." Bennett looked away. "Naomi, I don't know how I could believe you right now." I frowned. "Bennett when he fell, you don't think that damaged his brain right?" Bennett stared at me deep in the eyes, sending shivers down my back. Well uh.. Apparently his shiny eyes left.. "Bennett?" He was trying to read my eyes, checking if I was just trying to defend the Musketeers relationship or not. "Bennett please." I said. "Naomi." He said coldly. "I believe you. But if that's true, don't we have to take him to the hospital?" "Yeah, I believe so-" "You!" The clown announced pointing in Jordan's direction.
"The guy with the red shirt, come down here." Jordan's expression of depression, just went lower. He began slightly crying. He walked out of the circus. "The guy with the curly blonde hai- Oh he left.." I began chasing after Jordan but then the clown said, "So you, the girl with the glasses!" I dead panned and turned towards Domi, Lynn, Bennett, and Declan. 'Take care of Jordan for me please, he has brain damage from the fall take him to the hospital.' Bennett let go of my hand, I've gotten used to it.. They all nodded and began walking out. "Oh and you, the guy walking out!" Freaking clown. Bennett turned towards Declan, gave him the lambo keys, and mouthed, 'you have a better relationship with Jordan anyways.. Don't crash my car.. And.. Tell Dominic to keep Lynn and them safe.' Declan gave him a shocked and confused face. Bennett gave him a small smile and looked back at me. I was totally confuzzled. He could've driven to the hospital himself, explained what happened- You know what I'll ask him by the end of the day.
Bennett and I walked down the stairs the spotlight on us. "Aw, the couple doing the couple game, how amazing." "C-Couple what?" I stuttered as Bennett said, "We're not a couple." "Sure you aren't, don't worry lovebirds, we'll keep it a secret." He said grinning like an idiot, while looking at the crowd. Bennett rolled his eyes as my cheeks turned red in embarrassment. "Is somebody... Feeling.. Flustered?" "Oh jeez, it's another Jordan." I joked. Bennett couldn't help but smile at me. We arrived all the way at the clown, seeing a huge wheel next to him. There was ten options. 1. Both ride the elephant. 2. Share FREE food. 3. Kiss. 4. Say something you like about each other in front of the crowd. 5. Make out. 6. Spin again. 7. Get married tomorrow. (Just kidding do it as a joke. Invite me!) 8. Go on a date! 9. Go in the tiger cage! (Hehehe.) 10. Water balloon fight! (Whoever wins, gets the huge teddy bear!) Oh my god.
"Here's the bear by the way." He said holding up a huge- I MEAN HUGE- teddy bear. "Which do I want more? 2 or 1 or 10!!! Bennett noticed the sparkle in my eyes. "Are you okay?" "And you both get to spin!" He laughed. I reached up for his shoulders and shook him like crazy. I stood on tippy toes looking at him right in the eye. "Bennett.. I need that teddy bear." "Teddy bear it is then." He said. "Now, we have two tries, Naomi. You go first." I stood right next to the wheel looking at the crowd. "This is my moment!" I spun the wheel as hard as I could. It started slowing down. Oh my god I might get it.. Oh my god.. "8! 9! 10! 1!-" I got on my tippy toes again and shook Bennett. Again. "Bennett you need to get that bear for me." He wasn't even looking at me, he was looking at the board. I turned back seeing that two, was about to go to the three. "Oh no. Oh no." The two quickly went backwards and stayed at 2. I gave a huge sigh of relief. I stared at the two. "So where's the foo-" then it turned into three. "THIS WHEEL IS RIGGED!!" I shouted, throwing my glasses on the floor. Oh no! I quickly leaned down to check if they were broken. Thank god. "No it's not~" The clown sang.
"B-Bennett!" I spat looking at him. He was gone. "Bennett?" I said. I quickly feel somebody pull me by the waist and turn me around. Reflexes save me! I felt a hand on my waist and the other on the hand that was about to slap them. I blinked. Bennett Frazier just kissed me. Bennett, F-ing, Frazier, just kissed me. My face turned deep red. I looked at his reaction, which was just calm, but you could see the smile. So then he blushes when I call him cool but now he doesn't?! I heard awes, and oohs, from the crowd. "Bennett, f-ing, Frazier." I said. "F-Frazier you say?" The clown stuttered. Bennett let go of me making me stumble and fall, well about to fall since Bennett grabbed my collar and lifted me up. "Th-Thanks." I said immediately backing away, staring down, fiddling with my sweater's zipper. "I-I.. Uh.." That was the best kiss, I've ever gotten if I'm honest with you. Better than Parkers. "No, sir, she said something different." "Oh, I really gotta clean my ears." Nobody needed to know that.. To be honest. "Anyways, your turn kiddo." I looked up seeing Bennett spinning the wheel. So much for being friend zoned Frazier.
"6.. 7.. 8... 9..." It was on the edge of 9. But did I care anymore? No. I stared down at my zipper again. And it was at that moment.. I was splashed with a water balloon. "Naomi, you asked for it." He said calmly splashing my glasses. "H-Hey!" I wiped my glasses on my sweater and looked at my side, seeing a stack of water balloons. I was furious at Bennett. He shouldn't have kissed me. Even if it was a good kiss. "That's for kissing me!" I shouted throwing one at his sweater. "That's for being really cool!" I threw one at his face. "That's for being a good friend!" Arm. "And that's for not being open up!" I said throwing one right in the stomach. "This is for being a weirdo!" Face. "This is for going out with Parker!" Face. "For being clueless!" Face. "And this Naomi.. Is for the teddy bear!" Face. I was clueless. I didn't know how to feel. I fell on my knees. I began crying. "N-Naomi?" Bennett said getting on his knees. "Are you-" I splashed a water balloon on his face. "That my friend, is for the teddy bear." He grabbed my bucket of water balloons, and splashed it on my head. "This is for the teddy bear Naomi." I started crying. "You won the teddy bear! NOO!" He got up and danced with the teddy bear, I laughed a bit at his playful side. But I continued crying. "You see this Naomi?!" He hugged the huge teddy bear, well hugged his stomach anyways. "This is-" I took off my sweater. Still crying. "Mine!" I need that teddy bear.. Hmmm? I looked at the clown, whose eyes were on Bennett's bucket. Yeah!
I splashed the bucket on Bennett. "You see this Bennett! I got last hit so... It's mine!" He dead panned. "Thank you very much." I grabbed the bear but Bennett stole it. He pushed the bear aside and kissed me. Again. "Last kiss, Naomi~" He teased grabbing the bear. I groaned and rolled my eyes. "Oh we're leaving by the way." I said. I have two questions for Bennett. We walked out. "Agh, how are we gonna get home?" I asked. "Eh, we'll wait." We sat on a bench. "So Bennett, I have a question. Two actually." "Ask ahead." He said playing with the bear. "You could've drove them to the hospital you know that right?" He looked at me and smiled. "The other question?" "You also know that it said kiss right? It never said where, so why on the lips?" He ruffled my hair. " Because I love you Naomi. And who would miss an opportunity like that?"
