MRS HART ↬ [RM + MH] [REWRITING]

Carousel

'You know I give a fuck about you everyday. I guess it's time that I tell you the truth. If I share my toys would you let me stay. Don't wanna leave this play date with you.'

The song ended and all of my happiness floated away because of that last verse. I sighed and hopped back onto my bed.

"Riles..."

"I wanna go back sleep." I grumbled burying my face into my pillow. Missy sighed and climbed back into the bed, wrapped her arms around my waist.

"This is going to be harder than I thought."

My phone buzzed and it revealed one new voicemail. I clicked on it and it started playing.

Hey honey. I have to talk really quick because Lucas is home. He over heard us talking about running away so I couldn't sneak out. I'm so sorry. We can't even re-schedule because he'll tell the police about us. Sorry there's no way we can be together.
*knock* *knock* ''what's taking you so long Maya?" I'm coming! Bye love you and I always will.

1 month later

I laughed at Farkle's joke then stuffed some cotton candy into my mouth. This is the happiest I have ever been since me and Maya broke up. Yeah it's hard seeing her everyday in class but finally I'm getting over her.

"Anyone wanna go on the carousel?" I asked. "I wanna get pizza anyone up for that?" Asked Missy. Farkle, Zay, Madison, and Charlie agreed. "Fuck you guys I'll just go by myself.'' I said while glaring at them. They laughed then headed for the pizza stand.

My stomach growled then I start  to debate whether or not I should go with them or go on the carousel. Just as I was about to choose a familiar figure with blonde hair came into view. Maya? What is she doing here?

She's probably here with Lucas. I sighed then huffed. Well being over her just flew out the window. I watched as she went towards the carousel. No one was with her. That's kinda sad... I mean her husband is never home and no one showed up to her birthday party so she must not have a lot of friends.

I'm gonna regret what I'm going to do right now aren't I?

I walked towards her. She looked at me and her cheeks flushed red. "Hey." I said. We were in front of the carousel now. "Hi... We shouldn't be talking you know."

"Is Lucas around?" I asked then looked around."Nope. So again hey."

"Why are you still talking to me we broke up and we can't get back together if that's what your thinking."

"Well excuse me Mrs. Hart I guess I'll be going then. I said going into the line for the carousel. "Wait.." She said and followed me onto the line. "Sorry I'm just frustrated with all of this."

"I understand... How about we go on the carousel together for old time sakes?"

She smiled and nodded. "For old time sakes." After 2 minutes we went on. I hoisted myself up on the horse and Maya did the same thing with the horse in front of me.

The ride started and my hair blew back behind me. After awhile I realized something. This is like our relationship.

Round and round like a horse on a carousel we go. Will I catch to love? I can never tell. Chasing after her is like a fairytale but I feel like I'm glued to this carousel. Or my heart is glued onto this carousel chasing after her.

It's all fun and games until someone falls ..... in love. But I already bought a ticket and it's no turning back now.

This horse is too slow. We're always so close. Almost. Right when I was about to capture her love she disappeared. Where did she go? I feel like a freak show. Thinking about all of this.

Why did you steal my already broken heart? You threw it in the stand coin slot. Now I'm stuck I'm stuck riding this carousel.

Round and round like a horse on a carousel we go. Will I ever catch up to love I could never tell. I know chasing after you is like a fairytale but I feel like I'm glued on tight to this carousel.

The ride stopped and me and Maya exited the ride. "So I guess this is go-" I cut her off by grabbing her face and pulling it closer to mine. I looked her in the eyes. I could tell she wanted this too. She nodded and I closed the gap between us.
